- Comment on Meta shareholders overwhelmingly rejected a proposal to explore adding Bitcoin to the company's treasury, with less than 1% voting in favor of the measure 2 days ago:
I believe any good thing you can say about crypto will eventually be coopted and controlled by capital.
The same is true for all “disruptive” technology unless it’s built specifically to be hostile to monied interests, like the fediverse - and even then, you have to continue defending it against incursions.

As soon as you could exchange it for real money it just became another tool of capital to move in secret.

I’ve sampled enough to say confidently that this is false.

4 years wow, so you must really remember the more quiet times. Even just in the last 1 to 2 years it’s got so much busier.
- Comment on If you are too young you really missed out being able to do this 2 days ago:
You have to really try to actually break a public payphone. By the time the receiver cracks you’ve hung up on the other end at least one or two slams ago.
- Comment on If you are too young you really missed out being able to do this 2 days ago:
Yeah especially if you did it while they were in the middle of speaking.
I did it once to a boss who threatened to fire me if I didn’t cover a Sunday shift. I said I quit instead, and they started to backtrack.
I close my eyes and relive that detectable moment sometimes. I remember everything about it. My roommate was smoking a menthol cigarette by the window and her dog barked at the sound of me slamming the receiver home.
I think this might be my Nexus.

I wish the rich would take advantage of our more virtuous qualities. Like I would love for someone to back me financially to go around compulsively pulling up invasive plants and lobbing pollinator flower bombs into abandoned lots.

Where do I go to make friends like you?
- Comment on The solution to many problems 2 days ago:
Yup, this is me with both alcohol and cigarettes. And it seems like the worse things are going for me, the better going back to it sounds.
Still I’m so glad I don’t have to worry about keeping dosed anymore.

We’re on thin ice here, because some people conflate dressing sexily with looking cool more than wanting to be desired sexually, but in general I agree with your edit.
- Comment on I hope i don't get downvoted for this 6 days ago:
It’s not abnormal. It’s just a type of person.
I get a lil triggered when we start talking about people and then start gesturing to this average/normal platonic homunculus as if they represent humanity, especially in the context of using biological “truths” to justify/explain social phenomena.
- Comment on I hope i don't get downvoted for this 1 week ago:
Gives people the choice whether they want to be sexualized or no. Like you shouldn’t have to wear a giant form-disguising hoodie just to keep from being ogled.

It’s why obese people aren’t considered attractive
If you look up the definition of what is considered “obese” for your height, I think you’d find this is largely false.
- Comment on I hope i don't get downvoted for this 1 week ago:
Not everyone’s nipples are sensitive FYI.

Ooo baby look at that apple BOB–yeah drain that cup, waterboy
- Comment on I hope i don't get downvoted for this 1 week ago:
Though it begs the question: if nudity became normalized, then what would be novel?
Not an sexologist or even a sexy anthropologist, but my intuition is that aesthetic attraction would always be a factor (since it doesn’t rely on sexual attraction), and that acting in a sexually provocative would be the way to provoke the horny gaze.
It might be nice to have less sexualization of people just be virtue of their existing in a sexualized body. That’s the dream, anyway.
