Dog/animal babies are cuter than human babies, and THAT's a FACT.
This reminds me that today I walked by a dog with a very pungent odor. Not bad per se but it was intense. I guess my sense of smell improved since I stopped eating foods my body disagrees with.

I hate how I always get lost in the nuance and have to iron out every kink of uncertainty whenever I write an argument. I'm coming from a place of trying to make a good, convincing argument, but I feel like I wind up saying nothing meaningful.

Wait a few more years and you'll start not giving a fuck.

just '?' derives all necessary meaning from the context in which you use it, meaning that it always perfectly relates to the subject of the question, removing the semantic restrictions and extraneous connotations that superfluous words (sentences) can introduce.
for example:
>Nigga, you a fag.
>Why would you say that?
makes you look weak and faggoty
>Nigga, you a fag.
>?
gives the other guy nothing to work with -- no extra information or context to color his unthought perceptions of you or to use to construct conclusions about you being gay.

Did an american say this? This seems like something an american would say.
Really hate their "earthly" appeal to idiots and engradizing of simplicity. Hemmingway was a fucking faggot.
Words exist to convey, using complicated words is not a way to filter out your expression or make your sound smart, it's just a way to make your expression clearer in it's contents. This not only feels like something a readlet would say but something a specifically american readler would say. I urge you to gobble together a 4th grade presentation poster on dolphins, read a Wikipedia page on dolphins and later on 6 full on specialist books on the inner workings of dolphins alongside studies both in the wild and in captivity and then say the little poster makes one just as informed on the subject as anything else. Complicated subjects require tons of words, some even require full blown numbers and truth functions.

The appeal towards minimalist descriptions creates a distaste of nuance and word volume. The more high level the description, the less accurate it becomes.
The less words you use, the wider the thing you talk about at the cost of accuracy. Because of its shallow-yet-wide outreach, it gives the impression of grandiose coverage... leading to inadequate ideas like "the more words you use, the less you say."
Effective high level descriptions grant access to nuance within the statement itself. These descriptions are usually found on the other side of a hump of verbosity the more you become knowledgeable within a domain. Which is why teaching can be so effective at making some people better communicators (for the most part).

I am so fucking sick of summerfaggots and board tourists repeating this point and the "if you need big words you don't get it" shit.
Shut UP!
Its absolutely wrong and a low IQ cope.
Its why you have scientism Redditor faggots walking around smugly thinking they understand the world around them when in reality what they believe (as delivered to them by pop web articles and Niel D Tyson shows) is literally WORSE than not knowing anything science, math, or any subject at all.
Brevity and simplicity is ALWAYS lossy compression.
Reality does not care that your peanut zoomer brain has a 10min max attention span! You're just a fucking mindbroken retard. Being a retard is not a virtue.
