If that's really what's up; aren't those cats also passing the mirror test at least partially?

My cat definitely uses reflections to look me in the eye at times, not sure if that counts as passing the mirror test except partially like you say

Cats absolutely can distinguish in a mirror at varying levels, that's different, the mirror test is a specific test where the animal has to react and check its own body after seeing something in the mirror. This arguably is a potential near case especially with the one cat who repeatedly checks their human to confirm that all is normal.

Her Twitter is protected. With Google I was able to find her Twitter description bit though:

"coding @etsy | writing @pitchfork @nytimesarts @vice @papermagazine @residentadvisor @SPIN @brooklynvegan. ... oh no the “””leftists””” found my post. go fuck yourselves and stop sublimating your repressed racism into humor. ... the 'official' emo nite LA playlist is very upsetting -- are ..."

Lol. Yeah I can see that happening in her life. And I also now know that Cum Town is a podcast.

Is it something lame like the Joe Rogan Podcast that the bros are into?

Someone pointed out that the "used to" implied story wise it was an ongoing thing and thus not a dealbreaker. If you buy the story.
It's a podcast, I'll listen to it someday, so far I'm content with following the hosts.

its a podcast but not like rogan. just three dudes bullshitting about nonsense for an hour and calling each other gay. its somehow "leftist" cause they'll mock trump or mention they voted/are voting for bernie. it's pretty funny if you like dumb humor.

can really jump in wherever but i always recommend "151 - pussy for lobster" or "142 - chelsea clinton RACIST" to start cause they are good examples of what the shows are often like.

I looked them up about a year ago. I like this clip:

But then I tried listening to whatever the latest ep was at the time, and it was just some guy with an annoying laugh (he was like their laughtrack) while the other two said edgelord-y shit.

If it's not that, then apologies

nachobro · « **Reply #37820 on:** November 27, 2019, 10:44:34 AM »

no that's the show, which is why all the "woe is me"-ing and hand wringing is so funny. it's a show where they say stupid shit, not a massive conspiracy hatefest against "real leftists" or whatever.

nachobro · « **Reply #37821 on:** November 27, 2019, 11:03:07 AM »

like i said, its hilarious. minus the chapo comparison which is hurtful.

nachobro · « **Reply #37822 on:** November 27, 2019, 01:33:06 PM »

ok that's actually hurtful

That's why I prefer NML. He really goes deep and asks the big questions.

"Triggering" is supposed to imply a suffered trauma, not just something you remember that you now dislike.

Why can't people even try to make their made up stories interesting.
