  Hell yeah, can’t wait to be able to afford housing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨MAGA, splitting hairs.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would just call him a child rapist. IMO that actually sounds worse than “pedophile” because you could apply the latter to someone who was attracted to minors but didn’t rape any.

  Regardless of his attraction, he raped children, so he’s a child rapist.

  The air at my workplace could definitely use more humidity.

  Imagine if he waits for people to panic and sell off and then buys back into the market.

  In this case, I expect that the market is due to tank for real soon, so that would maybe be a stupid move, but it seems like in general someone could literally trade on the perception that they’re an insider (regardless of whether they have real inside information or not) to manipulate the market in their favor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Memoirs and Autobiographies partly fictional? How the f do people remember so much detail?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It definitely varies between people as well. For instance, my sister (with no genetic relation to me) has much better memory than me, which seemed almost superhuman to me when I was growing up. Although, I have since realized that my memory is much worse than average, to the extent where I probably have one or more memory disorders. I’m sure that some people have memory that is much better than average, whether or not my sister is one of them.

  The word “Copper” is clearly edited in as well, so it’s probably covering a ring made by a different material.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Banana⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The texture bothers me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Estrogen doesn’t make someone a bottom. A lot of transfems are bottoms, but not because of estrogen.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Girl, Take Your Crazy Pills!’: Antidepressants Recast as a Hot Lifestyle Accessory⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think that even people who are dissatisfied are affected by it, because they also have propaganda affecting their ideas of how to make things better.

  For example, a large part of MAGA’s appeal is blaming people’s problems on immigrants and promising to do something about them.

  Others simply think that there is nothing that they can do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Girl, Take Your Crazy Pills!’: Antidepressants Recast as a Hot Lifestyle Accessory⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think antidepressants or therapy are to blame. It’s propaganda that’s to blame. Americans are flooded with propaganda to an extreme degree and to a large extent, they believe it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THE CRAZY PILLS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I meant the TikTok video that someone showed to RFK.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THE CRAZY PILLS⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I would be 0% surprised if it was an obvious AI video.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨minor inconvenience⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t find it on my Teams. F

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨introduction⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  At least he asked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨As a man, the easiest way to get someone to care about my feelings would be to transition to female.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s because of societal expectations for men, which are generally broken down more in LGBTQ spaces. Maybe you could hang out with LGBTQ+ people (even as a cis het person). I think most would be accepting of you and care about you, as long as you are accepting of them.

  Starting with El Salvador, right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be your Better version⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Alternatively, bond with your girlfriend over your shared interest in hentai.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Choose one before starting the game...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thanks to American Exceptionalism we have both.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had sort of the opposite as a trans lesbian. I thought that I was just really attracted to girls, but it turns out some of that was me wanting to be like them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My waifu is in my username, actually, although it’s a lesser known character. It’s Mk23 from Girls’ Frontline.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Florida ounces⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe there are stupid questions. :P

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only 50/50? Can I spam the button to get both guaranteed?

  If it were government controlled, it would be accountable to the people, to the extent that the government is democratic (ideally, much more than it is now), and would also be run as a service rather than for profit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In the short term, I think that collectively being Karens about it would be to reverse the pressure, by steering the monopolists away from oppressing us. Because they are mainly motivated by money.

  In the long term, take away their monopoly power.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I meant pressing the payment processors, like those prude activists are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because they always have been doesn’t mean it’s good. It’s definitely not good for private companies to have monopoly power like that. That power will only be used for their gain (and our collective loss).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I am a strong believer in democracy. I don’t think that the answer to a bad government is to reduce the power of the government, because that power will inevitably go to undemocratic institutions. Only the government is accountable to the people. So even when the government is currently controlled by people I dislike, I still want more things to be brought under the power of the government rather than privatized.

  The answer to bad government actions, in my view, is to fight for a more democratic government, and zealously advocate for good ideas among the voting population.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Since this is caused by activist pressure on the payment processors, perhaps a grassroots activist campaign of our own could change their mind. Especially if we threaten to stop using their services in favor of any competitor that allows all legal purchases.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First they came for steam, then they came for itch.io .⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In theory, crypto could be good for this, but crypto is used (and designed) more as an investment than a transaction tool.

  Also, the issue here is not centralized currency under a government, it’s centralized payment processing under monopolistic private companies. Crypto is not required to solve that, all that is needed is an alternative payment processor.
