  • I already think of dead kittens when I masturbate

  • You got logged out for sure, it just shows the about account as being in the app, rather than that it isn't connected to the instance.

    You'll have to sign out and sign back in. It'll be back once you do. Just had to do it (again) myself.

  • Because it's a hot mess, and jellyfin just works better.

    Opinion in other words

  • LMAO! I was thinking of this exact idea when I saw that.

  • Good for them! Well, not good, but good that they're not gonna take the bullshit. UPS, USPS, even FedEx, those folks busted their ass all over the damn place during the worst of COVID. And every day they're working, they're out there in all but the worst weather, in the traffic and the risks those entail so we can have this wonderfully luxurious ability to not only get what we need, but anything we want (and can afford).

    Dock workers, railroad workers, truckers, these are the people that make the modern world function.

  • This is the kind of thing riots should come from.

  • Redreader and a couple of others got a pass for being accessibility friendly, though they still fucked the blind mods across the board.

  • It may not be a brigade. Scrolling all shows you everything (over simplified, but good enough). This is going to expose any post to far more than subscribed users.

    There's no way to avoid that tbh.

  • Damn, this thread turned wholesome as heck :)

  • You really gotta look up what censorship is before you use the word.

  • It's a lemmy.ml issue.

    It seems to be intentional. Which would mean it would be wise to start migrating to other instances for your lemmy use.

  • Frontpage is what you're looking for, but (as others have said) you might not be logged in. There was a security issue with some instances, and several chose to log everyone out as part of the process of fixing/mitigating the issue. So you may not be logged in currently.

  • You gotta lean into it.

    You don't scrub their back and otherwise just stand/sit there.

    You bathe your partner while they bathe you. Yes, including the "dirty" bits. Yeah, you may need to go back and get spots that get missed because you can only get so good when going by feel until you have a lot of practice, but it isn't that difficult; I was giving baths to elderly patients when I was 17, and teenagers are all idiots (I was no exception).

    Seriously, just lather up the scrubber, washcloth, or whatever y'all use, and wash them. ENJOY that shit! You're rubbing your sexy, wet, and loving partner. You very to touch every inch of them, as you scrub and rinse. For delicate places, you use your hands and gentle pressure (unless they like a harder scrubbing, but soap and genitalia isn't a good combination. Yes, really, I washed people for a living, their skin health was my responsibility. You don't need soap on your junk to get it clean, and most soap is too harsh for genital use).

    And, yes, that also means you get in that crack and wash their butthole. Just get in there and have some fun with it!

    If you're with someone, and you can't have fun when you shower together, there's something fundamentally broken in the relationship that needs working on. It's about intimacy, spending time taking care of each other, and enjoying each other's bodies. It doesn't have to be sexual, though there's nothing wrong with it being so.

    The problem with bathing together is usually that most showers aren't built where both parties can be under the water at the same time. This can leave one person cold. But, if you're touching and scrubbing the person that isn't under the water, theft aren't likely to get very cold. And they possibly won't even notice if they did.

    Even if it's every day, or you're just doing a fast shower, it's entirely possible to make it work and not be an impediment to getting clean and getting out.

  • No, you cannot complain about complainers complaining about complainers complaining. That's too far!

  • Nice try! But we all know Ohio is just a fake that our reptilian overlords are using to get us all to think that there's somewhere worse we could live so that we don't rise up against them.

    Pfft, next, you'll be telling us that Alabama is real.

  • That's a little disingenuous.

    While piracy is not theft, trying to paint it as some kind of morally driven campaign for the preservation and distribution of information is bullshit.

    It that was the case, piracy would be focused on a lot different files. Project Gutenberg is about preserving and sharing information. Us? We just want to bypass the capitalist bullshit part of the equation. Even that isn't true of everyone, because we otherwise wouldn't be using things like realdebrid. If we, as pirates, really want to contribute, we'd all be scanning out of print books, films, and music as soon as we found a source for it.

    Up/down ratios inherently disprove the idea that piracy is some kind of noble pursuit for the vast majority of people.

    And even then, you can't ignore that piracy does break the social contract where someone's efforts are rewarded in return for their contributions. If I'm making a movie, I can't be tilling my fields and harvesting crops. Neither can the actors, the sound guys, the camera guys, etc.

    These creations we borrow? They represent resources no less than someone building a school, or making a map, or raising chickens. That's the fundamental contract of a society. We agree, as part of a society, that someone's efforts in a specialized, and non subsistence field will be treated as having value at least as significant as the time they could habe spent on survival tasks when society didn't dominate the entire arable planet.

    It doesn't have to be remuneration in capital repayment, but don't pretend that leeching the creative proceeds of others by piracy fulfills that contract.

    We can try to change the system, try to bring it down, whatever. But until then, piracy is never going to be a moral or ethical good. It's just people taking what they want because they can't afford it, or don't want to.
