I prefer to think of myself as an Epsilon Male.

As in, “Y the fuck are you like this, bro?”

No cummie

No talkie

I’m voting for him as an avowed leftist.

Besides impeding fascism, his reforms on student loans mean I’ll be debt-free with $0 payments in 10 years. That is a material improvement of my life that I am infinitely grateful for.

But I still think he’s a piece of shit for aiding and abetting a genocide and would vote for another candidate if I meaningfully could.

Politics is nuanced. 🤷

My friend got by on 7 years in Germany only knowing

“Ein bier, bitte.”

and

“Willst du fich mich?”

I once ordered from a wings place and left the comment “arrange the chicken into a pentagram. please, I need this”

They didn’t do it, but I hope I made someone chuckle out of it.

Unless the kid brained someone with a tee ball trophy, I categorize this penalty in the “extreme” category.

In Asia, it’s a nightmare.

The PokeStops and events are plentiful and raids are easy to win and great.

But gyms, man. They don’t change because of the smurf accounts. I stopped being able to get free coins because people would walk around my city with corkboards with 6-8 phones, and any time I knocked out a Pokémon at a gym, a new one was immediately in its place.

No more free coins, so I quit entirely.

“Before you start, are you looking for solutions, or are you looking for someone to listen?”

This is an essential relationship skill/concept. Learn it and watch all your relationships improve.

My ancestors are smiling on me, Imperial. Can you say the same?

I demand ham.

You also do it alone.

People generally used to live with their extended families.

The tasks you’re describing were generally spread out between 4-8 grown-ass adults.

Do you masturbate? Watch pornography? Have sexy dreams?

Oh, sorry, we having an internet argument. Let me come down to your level.

You are so very dumb stupid and it is so much that I can’t believe it (because I am not, I am a very smart special boy). I am going to ignore your entire post and hyper focus on one sentence because it is so dumb and offensive that it is smelly and bad like a big poop dumpster on fire. No, wait, that would be an insult to poop dumpsters, so make it two poop dumpsters.

As you can see, my argument is incapable of being critiqued, and I am so good at making my point that you must back away and crown me Best Arguing Boy on the internet.

There. Now I’m glad that we’ve been productive and had good faith discourse and neither of us looks like a pedantic shithead.

That’s not even remotely true.

Have you ever actually spoken to a sex worker before?

They primarily sell intimacy.

People are able to tell and be things around sex workers that they can’t be in their daily lives.

In one of your other posts, you said that sex shouldn’t be commodified. Well, we live in a society where EVERYTHING is commodified while simultaneously alienating people to perform their peak consumption.

Sex isn’t holy. It’s a need that we all have, like water, food, and oxygen. When you make it so that people who are bad at getting it can’t get it at all, you make a population of stressed out, deprived, and desperate people.

Sex workers bring so much more to the table than being a cum dump. A good sex worker gives you a safe place to be yourself and meet your base, primal needs. That’s not just valuable, that’s invaluable.

It’s an allegory for STDs.

In this day and age, why aren’t brothels and sex work legal?

Yep. The Romans fucked themselves sideways doing this a few times. You can have all the soldiers or you can have some farmers and skilled laborers. You can’t have both.

Imagine Vietnam-era US, but it was willing to sacrifice every warm body within its borders to win.

Like the US, I think Russia is on a collision course with failure. But they’re going to take it a lot farther before waving a white flag. So much so that it will take the country decades to recover.

And Ukraine won’t be looking too hot at that point anymore, either.

YOU BEEN DOWN TOO LONG IN THE MIDNIGHT SEA

That’s one rustled Jimmy.
