As someone who is probably 3x your age and has been around the block a few times in some non-standard social circles, let me assure you there are plenty of women out there looking for exactly what you described yourself as. Are they the majority of <insert dating app>, probably not, but who cares? You aren’t looking to date 500 people, just 1.
Be yourself and go find her.
This guy doesn’t sound basic so why would he want those basic bitches? 😂
Do you wanna be mostly/sorta/un happy with someone that was easy to get because you were role playing someone else, or do you want to be truly happy with the person that accepted you as you are, but took a lot more effort to find?
Different people will make different choices in that situation. Everyone has to decide for themselves.
I just smoked a j and I’m reading through this thread and all the regular advice comments, then I hit this and started laughing so hard I almost had an aneurysm.
Thank you.
If you’re constantly doing weird, irrational shit, you’re crazy.
If you’re constantly doing weird, irrational shit but you have money, you’re eccentric.
Unfortunately for them, my relationship with Microsoft expired last year.
Uhh I use Librewolf with UBlock daily and have been for almost 2 years. It still works fine, including for reading Guardian’s website and blocking those annoying elements.
In fact I’m almost certain UBlock Origin is included in a default Librewolf install anymore.
Despite their best efforts.
You are calling for the violent eradication of certain people.
No, I am calling for the eradication of a hateful belief system. Whether it becomes violent is up to them. (It will)
When they cross the line from speech to violence and actually try to “silence” others, we will, of course, defend those others.
I suppose you haven’t been reading the news lately. We are past that point. They are literally arresting people that speak up for the rights of others, under false pretexts.
Well, I don’t believe you.
Would you defend the right of someone to stand across the street from an elementary school with a megaphone, every day (for years) while the kids get on and off the bus, yelling in great detail how much he enjoys watching them and how he dreams about them every night? Not quite crossing the line into vulgarity that would get him arrested, but definitely causing stress and great anxiety to everyone around him, and harming the mental health of small children at the least?
If you don’t defend that speech, then you do have a line. You just draw it in a different place than I do.
We have to accept the idea that we may very well be the ones in the wrong.
I will never accept that to let everyone live in peace no matter what they look like or who they consensually sleep with, is wrong. And therefore the rest of your argument falls apart for me. Nazism is a hateful, violent belief system and not something you are born with, and for those reasons is unworthy of protection of any kind.
I see where you’re coming from. I just don’t agree with it. Hatred must be stamped out, and that can’t always be done peacefully. I am ok with this paradox, hypocrisy, whatever you want to call it.
I tend to agree with you, but this same line of thought is used by many in the queer community to ‘other’ bisexuals and trans people, for example. Everyone draws the line in a slightly different place. I don’t know what the right answer is. For me I would probably draw the line between ‘sexuality’ and ‘fetish’. Your sexuality should be protected from discrimination and persecution, but in my mind a fetish is more akin to a hobby or sport you enjoy and wouldn’t deserve the same level of protections or attention.
You can easily choose not to walk around in a dog collar on a leash in a rubber suit in public, because you’re just doing it for kicks. You can’t choose not to be queer.
It’s not racism any more than me distrusting my government makes me racist against ‘Americans’. It’s more Occam’s razor.
Pandemic of a virus that starts in the city that has THE LAB that studies that type of virus, in a country whose government where the one thing you can always count on them doing is covering up anything that makes them look bad? It’s either that or a MASSIVE coincidence.
It makes sense and that’s why people believe it’s possible. I agree some evidence would be nice but considering who runs that country that’s incredibly unlikely.
Sad to say but I think you’re right and came to almost the same conclusion some time ago. Except I think war and man-made famine will far outstrip anything even angry mother nature is going to do to us.
Hard disagree. You’ve oversimplified. We ONLY need to do to the Nazis what they want to do to everyone else, because we have no other choice except to to let them win and then die. Their actions dictate their demise, not ours.
If they left everyone alone, they’d be left alone. Since they want to kill most of the planet, and will given the opportunity, they must be killed.
Government of the people, for the people, by the people.
It’s the intolerance paradox in action. It’s like tolerating cancer. Cancer is a living thing, it doesn’t mean you respect it and let it have its way with you without interference. Same principle.
The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress, by Robert Heinlein. I read that when I was in high school over 30 years ago and it had more impact on me (no pun intended if you’ve read it) than anything before or since, I think. I read Stranger In A Strange Land shortly after and that one did a number on me, too. Heinlein’s place in the pantheon of science fiction gods was well earned.
For lighter stuff, the Scions of Shanarra series, by Terry Brooks, is one I have gone back to many times.
Uhh yes. Often. First day on Earth?
A whole garage full of power tools and you went with sandpaper. He said easiest, not ‘least messy’!
Islay malts always taste like somebody put a cig out in them. Ew.
Balvenie 14 year for me, thank you very much!
