Yeah, I was enjoying some videos about dumb Steven Seagal movies, but then I realized that every single one would have jokes about women being bad drivers, being overly emotional, etc. At first I took it as a humorous way to look at Seagal’s misogyny, but then it became apparent that it was being applied in other cases where it didn’t make sense. It was subtle, in the context of the rest of the videos, but a definitely present part was the manosphere mentality.

You misread the first sentence.

Depends somewhat on the particular negative. We can claim with certainty that dinosaurs are not alive today, even though there are theoretically places that are not sufficiently explored where, in principle, a dinosaur might live. We are well aware that the fossil record is globally consistent and demonstrates the timing of their extinction, as well as the lack of any fossils of dinosaurs since then.

Similarly, I can claim with confidence that a force does not exist in the universe that would allow me to teleport from place to place instantaneously, because such a force would violate many of the known laws of physics.

There are various types of god-beings that cannot exist because of a logical contradiction. An omnipresent entity, for instance, would be always detectable if it had any measurable effect on the world, but no such measurable effect can be observed. If it is not capable of a measurable effect, then it is indistinguishable from not existing.

Other types of negatives are not easily proven. That is why scientists will say things like, “Based on 3478 measurements, there is currently no evidence to support the existence of higher values than those reported here.”

I did not make a hypervelocity impact crater. I did, however, make a large number of low velocity impact craters.

Rode 190 kms on a unicycle one day.

China has a very large capita.

Italy is a part of Africa. At least, geologically.

I have spent the last 12 years trying to convince my wife that I am not trying to trick her. I really do think she is that beautiful.

Feels > reals.

I watched a catapult fire projectiles into a castle moat outside of Cardiff at a medieval fair. Also got propositioned by a Welsh girl, but couldn’t understand what she was saying.
