  • Imo I think observing a crime like that but not reporting it (so more crimes can be amassed by that person) should be considered legal endorsement of the activity. You were aware of the infraction and chose not to report it or otherwise act on. That you were hoping to “bank” more crime from the criminal seems irrelevant to me - you chose not to pursue legal action even after clearly being aware of the infraction, which tells me you chose inaction.

    But of course bringing our laws in line with morality and reason would require an enormous overhaul of the system, so instead we have this bullshit.


  • Not in the slightest. I’ll happily talk dicks with you all day; I’m extremely sexually liberal.

    But talking about dicks isn’t the same as listening to a bunch of chud weirdos whining and crying about the world’s least consequential issue that’s they’re only mad about because deep down they ignorantly think their tiny dicks would be bigger if they hadn’t had their foreskins stolen.

    Again, it’s just a weird fucking thing to focus on. Bring it up when the topic comes up, of course, but to fucking insert it in conversations as if it’s relevant, as was done in this post, will always be weird.

    But hey, if you wanna talk about dicks for fun, I’m game. Mine curves slightly to the left, how about you?


  • I think we’d have to take a poll from the general population and compare it with a poll from an anti-circumcision group and compare it to be sure.

    My guy, please be for fucking real right now. There is a difference between an unfounded claim and an outlandish one. If I said “all of the smartest people on earth believe Poland borders Peru,” we wouldn’t need a study or poll to confirm I was full of shit, we could just reasonably deduce it. Likewise we don’t need a survey to tell us that any man who genuinely tried to bring up circumcision as tantamount in the abortion conversation would be rightly laughed out of serious consideration.

    Again, I acknowledge you aren’t wrong and I will acknowledge both abortion and circumcision exist under the same very broad umbrella of bodily autonomy, but frankly the scale and scope of the two are so wildly and enormously different as to instantly render any attempts at comparison moot.

    And honestly, I really think that you know this too. I truly believe that if you can divorce yourself from your personal investment in this topic, you will also see what an absurd comparison that is.







  • The “you’ll feel worse and worse” part is pretty blatantly ignoring the endorphin rush that exists here. Like yes you may feel worse on the level, but it’s accentuated with moments of feeling pretty damn great, which seems disingenuous to ignore.

    I’m not even a smoker, and I was happy as hell when I parents quit smoking, but let’s not pretend the choice is as simple as “poison or no poison” without any tangible upsides.





  • Personally I decided about 6 years ago that I wouldn’t buy another non-portable game console.

    At this stage I just don’t see any reason to drop $600+ on a console when I could put that $600~ towards upgrading my PC and get vastly more value for my money.

    So as far as I’m concerned, the only consoles worth looking at at all right now at the Nintendo Switch, which I have and love, and the Steam Deck, which would offer me my PC gaming experience with something it lacks: portability.

    Aside from that, I personally couldn’t give 2 shits what’s happening in the world of XBox or Playstation these days.
