    Just because you are gay does not mean you are not homophobic.

    They likely meant that it’s a joke about power dynamics implying sexual preference. That is homophobic, but funny, but also homophobic.

    In short, just cause you like it up your arse doesn’t mean you are a spineless idiot with no power. Instead Let people enjoy things and try to stop the spread of these stereotypes even in jokes. You never know who hears them and what social climate you might propagate into the heads of others and youth. If you are aware of these caveats you are allowed to make the most offensive jokes.














  • Sound is usually mitigated not by choosing materials that absorb it when it travels through them, but by isolating parts of the building.

    Also Eg. Resonances are a problem. Placing furniture and geometric shapes in rooms is so much easier than say putting it underwater ;) much more practical, too.

    Sound usually carries quite far so increasing the speed of sound doesn’t do a whole lot. Might work decent for high frequency noise but that’s not really a thing that is done.

    The other commenter provided the formula for the speed of sound in an ideal gas. Please refer to that.
