    Social What do you do for work?

    I work as a postdoc in a biomedical engineering department studying lung biology (I would not really consider anything I do to be engineering actually, lol). I'm probably past the point at which I really need to figure out what I want to do long-term, but honestly I haven't. I kind of want to...

    Social Why did you join Smogon?

    I remember in 2008 or so I really liked reading about competitive pokemon and all the strategies behind it, but never really got that into playing it that seriously. So I probably joined the forum because the idea of interacting with people on the internet was pretty novel to me at the time. I...

    The word “Retard”

    I would never use it in real life, especially not to describe a person with an intellectual/developmental disability. Using it in an informal setting on the internet to describe something you think is really dumb? I probably wouldn't do that either but I think it's fairly obvious that the intent...

    New New Name and Profile Change Requests [READ THE OP]

    Hello, Could I request my name be changed to "omgocd" (with the quotes not being part of the name). It was the original name I registered for this site with and honestly I have no idea why I changed it, but I hate my current name. I know I hardly post on this forum, but still. Thanks in advance...

    Serious Are social justice warriors (SJWs) ruining society?

    SJWs don't even exist outside the internet. It's the people who base their political views on social media phenomena ("memes") who are ruining society IMO.

    Serious Art and Culture

    Why question whether art influences culture -or- reflects it? I can't imagine how anyone could argue only one of those statements is true. I'm not very familiar with Anita's work but as far as I know, her criticisms come from the games' reinforcement of stereotypes/gender roles/etc which...

    How do you face and overcome your own mortality?

    For the first question: I would actually argue a bit of egotism is necessary to fear one's mortality (note: I'm talking about fearing the concept that one is not immortal; not fearing for one's life in particular circumstances). For many people, I think it's a lot easier to cope with the fact...

    top anime openings or endings (music + VIDEO)

    I've been obsessed with this remix of Moon's Cocoon (Turn A Gundam) lately (the original isn't bad either). Also really like Kizamu Kisetsu from Ef: a Tale of Memories. Unfortunately, the full version of the song isn't on youtube (afaik). This is pretty good too imo I didn't take the videos...

    The Asian Palm Civet is used to make a type of coffee. The animal eats the coffee beans, then the waste product is used to make the coffee. Apparently it's one of the most expensive types of coffee in the world.
