I would assume, though I could be wrong, that by not challenging it, they either conceeded the point, or, perhaps did not even mean to say it in the way they said it, with the meaning/implication that phrasing has, as they have said English is their third language, not their first.

- Comment on I wish I could do executive orders 🤔 1 day ago:
Well its not like you’d have any understanding of what is or isn’t really leftist.
Here’s a hint:
Opposing massive government handouts to huge megacorporations.
Opposing biased legal standards and tax structures that massively favor the wealthy being able to accumulate more wealth, at the expense of the poor.
Opposing idiotic broad general tariffs that have historically and are currently exacerbating an ongoing Great Depression.
But, fascists love doing all those things, because they are economically illiterate and/or openly, brazenly corrupt.
And now, for more vocab, if you oppose these fascist policies, you are now anti-fascist, otherwise known as antifa.
But fascists cannot comprehend the idea that anyone could disagree with them, so they label everyone who does as a terrorist, and have lately started executing such people in the street.

Ok.
I was talking about 2020.
The one before the one you are talking about.
Also, most ‘die hard leftists’ were disgusted by Kamala’s pro-Genocide stance.
And a pretty good deal of actual leftists were saying ‘all these economic numbers that politicians and the media are touting are bullshit, they’re incomplete, they are not reflective of reality’.
And well now we have all the job revisions and yep that was correct, I think the BLS has now ‘un addded’ something like 2-3 million jobs between 2022 and present.
You’re conflating liberals and leftists, which betrays that you have no idea what a leftist is.
Its liberals that fall in line with standard corporate Dem talking points.
Leftists tend to challenge and critique them.

I mean, I thought this was common knowledge, but apparently it isn’t.
I’m also an autistic data analyst type of person, so I just … actually do consume data and reports and such basically for fun.
But anyway yeah, the entire right wing narrative on this is wholly ass backwards and based on not just lies, but a literal inversion of reality.
Fascists gonna fascist.

I’ll admit, jailbait by definition does not fit in, so it was incorrect of me to use that word,
Thank you for seeing and saying that.
but I’ll stand by the idea that it does feel weird to me in a way that resembles liking young girls.
I mean… very broadly, yes, sure, I get that, but I feel like you have to ignore the details and context.
But I will also grant that the non actual OP image, that is of higher quality, makes it more clear that the woman is likely not a child or very young adult, than the blurrier OP image does.
Answer me this - is it perfectly fine/morally right of me to watch a porn of tall dude doing it with a very short one?
Well frankly that’s a complicated question, mostly because: What exactly do you mean by ‘very short one?’
Apologies if I am wrong but it seems like English may not be your first language, and that that might be the cause of a lot of the kerfuffle here.
If you mean an actual dwarf, someone with dwarfism, well then that, to me, becomes a discussion of basically… is it more the case that such a person basically has few other valid employment options by way of discrimination, or is it more the case that… they’re fully consenting adults, making their own choices, which they understand or are in control of?
If you mean a person who is not a dwarf, but is simply fairly short… I basically still have the same kind of answer, I guess, just with their likely being a good deal less discrimination against someone who is simply short, but not a dwarf?
Personally, as a matter of personal preference, I would not be interested in porn with dwarves, and yeah I probably would be weirded out a bit between an extreme height mismatch with non dwarves…
But ‘being weirded out’ and ‘morally endorsing or condoning something’ are not the same thing to me.
Lots of people do and enjoy things that I do not, that I find weird, but … I don’t think they’re de facto morally bad just because I find it weird.
Because I know that that all works in reverse as well: I’m into things many other people find weird or strange, but like, I’m not harming anyone.
Frankly, I just don’t like to watch any kind of porn where anyone is getting just utterly physically dominated by another person.
I don’t like porn where a guy will like, insult or or degrade or very physically forcefully slap any part of a woman, or that is styled as if its the gals boss or something… that turns me off.
But, some people are into both or either of those things.
Sorry if this is kind of a non answer, but I guess the short (lol) version would be:
Such things generally yes do make me some amount of uncomfortable, but me being comfortable is not the same thing as something being morally condemnable.
Are these things moral?
Basically, thats a pretty complicated question to me, and I’m honestly not totally sure how I feel about that.

Yes.
visaverge.com/…/crime-rates-lower-among-undocumen…
Evidence shows both undocumented and legal immigrants in the U.S. consistently have much lower crime and incarceration rates than natives across crime categories. This trend challenges popular beliefs and highlights the importance of accurate data for fair immigration and criminal justice policies, emphasizing immigrant contributions to safety.
So, its literally true that if you deported all native born citizens and left only immigrants, the crime rate would go down.
Thus, if you deport a subset of native born citizens, the same still applies.

I am also reasonably confident that you can explain Trump’s 2020 election loss by way of the disproportionate number of COVID casualties and deaths in Red areas vs Blue areas.
Basically, if Trump/MAGA had actually responded to COVID sensibly, as sensibly as Blue areas did, on average, accounting for population density…
Trump would have actually won.
But so many MAGA voters died or were disabled from voting, by COVID, that they instead lost, snd then further went nuts, and didn’t believe it, and attempted an insurrection.

Bi male twink here, can confirm this is a thing.
- Comment on Get on my level 1 day ago:
My point is you got the causation backwards.
Women generally have a stronger preference for taller men, than men have a preference for shorter women.
But you framed the entire scenario as being caused by men.
Its… also amazing that you yourself date someone 20cm shorter than you.
So, what, if you yourself were 5cm shorter than you are, and your partner was 5cm shorter than she is… would that be such a difference that the woman would now be ‘child sized’?
Short people do just exist, the image is an intentional joke making fun of height difference that is present in this consensual relationship.
You describe this as jailbait despite the woman looking like she’s in her upper 20s or lower 30s in age.
Like, not to be rude to the woman in the picture, but how many under 21 or under 18 girls… have forehead wrinkles, bags under their eyes?
- Comment on Get on my level 1 day ago:
… Women generally, statistically, indicate an ideal preference to date men who are ~21cm / ~8 inches taller than themself.
www.sciencedirect.com/…/S0191886913000020
Women prefer, on average, a larger height difference between themselves and their partner (i.e. males being much taller than themselves) than men do. This effect is even more pronounced when examining satisfaction with actual partner height: women are most satisfied when their partner was 21 cm taller, whereas men are most satisfied when they were 8 cm taller than their partner.
So a roughly average height 5’4" woman, on average, would ideally pick a 6’ tall man, all else held equal.
By the same kinds of math, on average, men prefer to be ~8cm / ~3 inches taller than their ideal height female partner.
So a roughly average height man of 5’10" would ideally prefer their gal to be 5’7".
So I don’t know, you tell me why generally speaking, women ideally prefer their men to be ~8 inches taller than themself, but men ideally prefer being only ~3 inches taller than their women.

- Comment on Gentoo Linux Begins Codeberg Migration In Moving Away From GitHub, Avoiding Copilot 2 days ago:
Because Microsoft owns github.
Even without them plugging LLMs into it, using it all as training data, they could easily do a more standard enshittification of it.
Oh you have a free github account, you can do X amount of pulls and commits per month, otherwise, subscribe to GitHubPro for $5 a month.
Oh you host some software that’s used to antagonize our corporate partners?
Even though its not actually illegal?
Poof, gone, just like when the credit card companies decided nsfw games are verbotten.
- Comment on Gentoo Linux Begins Codeberg Migration In Moving Away From GitHub, Avoiding Copilot 2 days ago:
Basically anywhere that LLMs are implemented… they are a security vulnerability, for any situation in which they are not sandboxed.
Anything they can interface with?
You can probably trick it or exploit it into doing something unintended or unexpected to anything else it is connected to.
Theoretically you could use an LLM to do something like come up with more accurate heuristics for identifying malware.
But… they’re nowhere near ‘intelligent’ enough to like, give it a whole code base for some kind of software, and thoroughly make that software 100% secure.

For about 4 months in 99 and 2000, Trump actually did try to run for President, as the candidate of the Reform Party.
Apparently it was Jesse Ventura that convinced him, and Trump stated that Oprah Winfrey would be his ideal VP running mate.

I did try and explain how to avoid potential infections in an edit… before any insertions, make sure the involved areas, and a certain radius around them are thoroughly cleaned off of any uh, food product.
Like, clean up the whole area around people’s thighs and groin before you go ‘in’ to anything, for the gal, probably just don’t ever get any food product too directly close to where it could end up inside anywhere that has its own kind of sensitive self-regulating environment.
Sort of like with ‘never go ass to mouth’… either eat the gal out before food stuffs get into your mouths, or, have the other party just actually brush their teeth.
We had a number of disposable and non disposable towels and such on hand, beyond uh, orally prepping each other. Along with the pre prep of shower curtains, we put all our clothes into an unused garbage bag before we started… we realized that we’d only be able to lie or stand on or press against things or surfaces that we’d pre setup a shower curtain over, otherwise we’d leave a vaguely human shaped pb&j blotch on it…
…we did a significant amount of preplanning to account for just how generally messy this likely would be.
Then, the thorough shower afterward really is needed to get stuff off of the rest of your bodies, totally out of each other’s hair and such. You… kind of actually do need both people present to help the other get their hair as clean as possible, as gently as possible. If somebody has longer hair, probably tie it into a bun or ponytail or something, do your best not to intentionally palm or grab it.
Now, I cannot with any confidence speak to how well this kind of procedure would like… generally work with other people following it, repeating 10s or 100s of instances of it.
YMMV, there way be factors I am not remembering or considering that could be relevant.
Like obviously we both did not have any STDs, had been fairly recently screened, weren’t fucking anybody else in the interim.
Also, though I don’t think either of us knew it at the time… pretty sure we’re both autistic, hence the… mutual attention to details and contingency planning.
But anyway, I can say that the one time that we did this, nobody had any kind of infection afterward, yeast or otherwise.
As to Ratatat?
