I guess they only listed languages with gendered personal pronouns? Doesn’t make much sense for a Finn to specify their pronoun since it’s just going to be “hän” regardless of gender
Jännät (/ˈjænːæt/). Finnish adjective, plural: “interesting, cool, neat, exciting”.

Neurotypical people are just as capable of being evil dicks
OK, and remind me where I said they weren’t?
Selfish people aren’t narcissists
Right, and where did I say all of them are?
Cruel people aren’t psyhopaths.

BARBARIANS WHO REFUSE TO SIT KEEP PISSING ON THE SEATS
Why not prevent people who get drunk on power from coming in power?

Barbarians, the whole lot of them
Going on my 3rd or 4th year now (this isn’t my only account), and frankly I’m not sure why I bother
The problem is all the other barbarians who won’t sit down
If we allow people with significant dark tetrad personality traits (narcissism, machiavellianism, psychopathy, everyday sadism) or social dominance oriented people to have any meaningful amount of power over others, including the ability to run for office or vote, they will eventually turn societies into… well, what we see now.
Unsurprisingly conservatism overlaps with those traits.
So, ironically, to be able to run a functioning democracy, you’d have to exclude a fairly sizeable chunk of the population from participating in it
Edit: and this includes directorial or managerial positions in any kind of organisation, because corporate psychopaths are common scarily common and very harmful


Considering that it’s a Finnish company, the pronunciation is probably meant to be “yol-la” (approx)
edit: /ˈjolːɑ/ for you IPA perverts
But all the “gain of function” stuff I’ve seen sounds like bullshit.

keep piss off toilet seats.
Just sit down you barbarian
MORE DAKKA
Uh, what did you think the rotary barrels were for?


Oh huh, they’re more like Audis here in Finland
Oh sure, I don’t disagree at all, I’m just trying to think of the logic behind why it’s not in the list.
