PM me the winner please ! <| sep |> I wouldn ' t pick it just yet , give it a day or two if not more . If the cap starts to seperate more , pick it . <| sep |> I dont think so . Some charger lower the charge to the batteries the more cells are charging , so your one battery could be charging twice as fast as the two . I ' m no expert , but i ' m going to say you ' re likely to get the response that the three batteries must be married , meaning you need 3 new cells at least , and a charger that can do all three at once . <| sep |> I ' m doing this as well . It ' s odd how comforting it is knowing there ' s a total stranger making the same move . <| sep |> Part 12 That ' s fairly reasonable to my mind , but the Guardian article does suggest that the trigger warnings were requested to be placed on the books themselves . Yeah , that is definitely the impression the Guardian article gives but this is what I find with a lot of these claims about trigger warnings . Someone will link to something like the Guardian article , it will sound a little outlandish so you try digging through the citations . It ' s usually a rabbit hole of citations to citations , until you finally get to the source material and , like in this case , it doesn ' t say what they claim . The thing they ' re responding to is c o n c e r n s s e x u a l o f f e n s e r e s o u r c e g u i d e p r e v e n t i o n s u p p o r t e d u c a t i o n s upportresourcesforfaculty . dot you can scroll down to the part about triggers . Like I said , the vast majority of ones I have seen are reasonable like what you mention material which would actually be upsetting to even people not likely to be triggered , but I ' ve certainly seen more frivolous ones online like TW weight loss . I ' m open to the idea that I ' m maybe just unempathetic because I don ' t really experience these triggers as strongly as others , but I lean more towards thinking that these are an unnecessary overapplication of the concept to anything likely to make someone feel uncomfortable . I understand worrying about overapplication and dilution of the term but again that ' s not the best example to use , as trigger warnings for things concerning weight and weight loss as essentially the original application for trigger warnings i . e . to help people with eating disorders navigate the internet . I think maybe part of the problem is that trigger warnings are , by necessity , somewhat vague as you only want to clue the person into the issue being discussed rather than actually triggering them with detail or spoiling the content of the material . So when someone sees a warning like Weight loss it might sound stupid because who in the world would be triggered by a discussion on weight loss ? Well , people with eating disorders , who can easily relapse if they ' re not in the right frame of mind when they read pages on weight loss techniques . If , as you say , you ' d rather be wrong trying to make the world a better place , isn ' t that what the parents in the 1980 s were doing if we ' re being charitable ? Absolutely , but the difference in context I ' d argue is that there is no evidence or reason to think caring about bad language is harmful to kids , whereas we know that including triggering material without warning is directly harmful . Of course some advisory labels are there for more serious reasons , so if a song is about a detailed description of the artist ' s rape then maybe an 8 year old shouldn ' t be listening , but I think the problem with advisory labels was precisely that they extended into moralising and speculating about future harm on a child ' s moral character , whereas trigger warnings haven ' t reached a point like that and are still concerned only with direct observable harm . For sure most of the time I see these Trigger Warnings Are Destroying Our Universities articles they ' re poorlyresearched and , where fuller information on the supposed destructive trigger warnings is available , they ' re far more reasonable that the article suggests . Agreed . And obviously I ' m not claiming that my experiences are the only accurate ones , or the true description of the world , but I ' ve honestly had this conversation hundreds of times over the years with people very passionate about the idea that trigger warnings have been misapplied , and they all cite the same handful of examples . To say that something isn ' t systematic doesn ' t mean it ' s beyond reproach , though , and whilst I acknowledge the general good intent behind such things , it ' s also worth calling something out if we think it ' s ridiculous , just do so in a less hyperbolic or SJWs kill universities nonsensical way . I agree . That ' s an issue more to do with general boilerplate racism rather than appropriation , no ? This is all included under cultural appropriation . Like wearing dreads can be done by a wellinformed and wellintentioned white person so that they ' re not disrespecting another ' s culture , but the fact that people respond to them positively with claims like exotic , tribal , exciting , adventurous , etc , whereas when black people do it they get accusations of their hair looking dirty and suggested that they probably smell of weed . The issue being that there is no actual cultural exchange going on here . Society isn ' t saying Whoa , that ' s a really neat idea , I think we should work it into our culture , it ' s more saying , We ' re going to take this idea , and when we do it then it ' s great , and when you do it it ' s terrible . The charge of appropriation , to my mind , is one leveled against an artist whereas what you are talking about here is one which is leveled against an audience who are racist and say things like I don ' t like rap except Eminem and Macklemore . What I ' m getting at is that the audience can ' t be guilty of appropriation , and I don ' t feel that Eminem himself is he ' s an immensely talented artist who grew up in the culture and is definitely a part of rap history Macklemore I don ' t really know or care much about since his music bores me . There ' s a good little bit on it by Amandla Stenberg rowsappropriation , particularly thisThat itself is what is so complicated when it comes to black culture . The line between cultural appropriation and cultural exchange is always going to be blurred , but here ' s the thing , appropriation occurs when a style leads to racist generalizations or stereotypes where it originated but is deemed as high fashion , cool , or funny when the privileged take it for themselves . Appropriation occurs when the appropriator is not aware of the deep significance of the culture that they are partaking in . Hiphop stems from a black struggle , it stems from jazz and blues styles of music which African Americans created to retain humanity in the face of adversity which itself stems from songs used during slavery to communicate and survive , on a smaller scale , but in a similar vein . Braids and corn rows are not merely stylistic , they ' re necessary in order to keep black hair neat . I ' ve been seeing this question a lot on social media and I think it ' s really relevant what would America be like if we loved black people as much as we love black culture ? I don ' t think it ' s necessarily true that appropriation only applies to the artist or individual , I think it absolutely can be a societal issue . Similarly , I think to call Japanese , French , Taiwanese , Korean , Malaysian , etc . rappers guilty of appropriation just because the music originated amongst African Americans in the USA is absurd it ' s a global phenomenon now I would level the charge of appropriation against artists who commodify or reduce the art form to a way which is somehow disrespectful , but not against every rapper who isn ' t African American . I don ' t think the argument is that you have to be black in order to avoid appropriation , it ' s more about how that individual and that society treats the people who rap . Other cultures can definitely adopt rap as a voice to express similar issues that they face to black people in America , and the only I see is when there is an issue with how it ' s adopted . For example , if a Korean group starts rapping and their video includes them wearing baggy jeans , dorags , and eating watermelon , then yeah , that ' s appropriation . The societal aspect can still be a problem if the society adopts this Korean group while thinking black rappers are thugs but generally I think rap is adopted by oppressed classes in other cultures who identify with the elements of rap and they ' re treated similarly to how black rappers are .
