I don’t really think that there are good people. I don’t mean it as cynical as it sounds. I KNOW there are bad people. I don’t think I’m one of those.

I think if it were being done responsibly and thoughtfully it would actually be pretty exciting and cool. If it was all in some kind of public trust, owned by everyone equally, or if it were TRULY open source I would honestly be banging the drum for it… as it is, it’s just an accelerant stoking the fire of inequality and a weight disadvantaging those already at the greatest disadvantage, even while it bouys those already the furthest ahead. Fuck the clankers, and anybody who thinks this is ethical needs to wake the fuck up

No generational war for me thanks, only class war plz

It’s really hard to acknowledge privilege. Everyone says “I worked HARD for what I have, I didn’t get it because I’m privileged”.

This misses the point though. You can be extremely privileged and work every bit as hard as the least privileged person on earth, nobody is questioning those people’s work ethic. The point isn’t that they didn’t work hard for what they have, it’s that other people are working JUST as hard and getting fucking NOTHING. Less than nothing. I’ve pointed this out to conservatives and more than once been met with confused silence because this is not the straw-man that fox news told them to punch at.

You know what? Fuck it. It feels like we have all the dystopia of a cyberpunk reality without any of the cool shit. Fuckin’ might as well make some super babies. What’s the worst that can happen? Inequality unprecedented in all of human history? We already have that. Make some juiced up baby Einstein mofos. Maybe one of them can figure out how to unfuck everything.

Pass, but thanks for the offer!

I know this is a shitpost, but as someone who has both sucked dicks and eaten pussy it’s disingenuous to act like it’s the same to go down on an unshaven version of each.

I don’t care if you don’t shave if you have a vagina, and aesthetically I don’t really have a preference, but I enjoy eating a shaved/waxed pussy a lot more. It’s a sensory thing. I don’t like having a mouthful of wet pubes. For the dicks I’ve sucked this is a non-issue either way.

Yeah, I’ve been wondering about this lately. I’m starting to think that the platform itself requires too much tech literacy to use and understand to ever be appealing to anyone other than highly tech-literate individuals. While I’d like to believe there’s enough of us out there to build rhobust communities around non-tech topics if this is true, I’m starting to worry that there just aren’t.

For all it’s flaws, Reddit was always very simple to understand and interact with, and it seems like the fediverse is just inherently more complex. Even if that’s not true, it’s going to FEEL true to anybody new since virtually all the active communities are peopled by the tech-literacy 1%

The flames of hell they seemed so high

When I could barely see over the pew

I was only a boy when they told me that lie

But lord it felt so true

And that’s a hell of a thing to do to a kid

Just to teach him right from wrong

You can burn in hell for the rest of your days

Or you can choose to sing along

Found this song on shuffle during a drive and had to pull over to cry out some religious trauma.

Intent SHOULD matter most here. Generally that’s true. I’ve also seen some folks go apeshit on people for using the wrong terms while the person speaking was actively trying to use the correct terms but just isn’t up-to-date. People of all groups, nationalities, genders etc can be dickheads, even when I agree with them broadly politically

I miss slapstick comic strips!

I’m partial to Charles Darwin with this banger from 1861

But I am very poorly today and very stupid and I hate everybody and everything. One lives only to make blunders.

To this day I hear “Diarrhea Jane” instead of “Diary of Jane”

I think this is basically true. Though it’s an interesting topic Here is an interesting bit of research

Barked beans

Early and often. I used to be one of those people who would just never admit if I’m wrong, grew up with them for sure. Learned it’s WAY less stressful to just admit the moment you realize you’re wrong.

That said, I use devils advocating to figure out what my actual opinions are, so I will argue positions I’m not 100% sure of pretty adamantly. Always seems to throw people when we debate for 20 minutes, me passionately defending my stance and then at the end I’m like “huh, yep. You right.” Most people think I’m fucking with them or something and keep trying to argue and I’m just like “yep, 100% agree”.

True, but from what I’ve read, virtually all mosquitoes don’t bite people. You can wipe out the 1% or less of the ones that do without significant environmental impact since the things that eat mosquitoes aren’t choosy about which ones so you really are just reducing their available food by like 1%, and even some of that will probably be backfilled by other species of mosquitoes since the ones that bite people don’t only bite people.

Different take: be afraid of death. When I’m driving I’m afraid of crashing into the other cars. I don’t obsess over it, but a healthy fear is a good thing. Fear is not intrinsically bad, and some things are scary and that’s okay as long as that fear doesn’t rule you
