  • The easiest way to make profits as an insurance company is to not pay. It's a terrible economic model

  • The economics of private healthcare doesn't work. It really doesn't work in rural communities. We need a medicare for all to help these areas. Why they continue to not support it makes no sense.

  • I'm pretty sure there at this point there will be multiple speakers without a year tenure. It's going to be a terrible time for us all

  • Yeah. I guess you're right. I just don't follow anyone and without real names it seems different

  • Is fediverse social media? I never considered reddit or this social media. More like a forum

  • I think everyone is seeing that the worth of social media isn't worth what you need to pay now

  • Yeah. I was disappoint that it wasn't where I lived but had a bill in 2021 to make it illegal

  • The religious rhetoric and shame is so baked in the system people don't even have to go to church anymore. The religious right and their abstinence only education has been forced into everything. Most states don't even require medically accurate sex education and most don't even talk about it. This leads to the situation you described. This is usually caked in the "protect the kids" rhetoric.

    I'm always surprised that every year around pride this same sex negative talk against nudity and sexual comes up. It's like people are for queerness as long as it's not sexual

  • I see the logic but pretty easy to see through it as a bad faith argument. Especially since most people who say that balk at making it legal to protect sex work

  • Every time a article says it banned in a certain number of state I want to know what other states have it. This should have been included and thanks for sharing this

  • If people really want to stop the exploitative nature of the work it should be out in the open and protected like any other job. It's the shame and hiding that allows this exploitative behavior

  • I am always surprised at the fairly progressive people I see online that are anti- porn and anti-sex work. Especially from young men and woman. It's simple body autonomy issues and people are only against it from years of religious based shame. Controlling something so fundamental of course is powerful since that frustration and shame can be directed elsewhere.

    Look at the attacks against queer and sex positive from the right they seem like jealousy. Always talking about urges and getting into graphic details like they wish they could do that. They want to have what others have unlocked and attack them for it. The same with capitalists who attack masterbation and sex. It's free to do and joyful which of course means they can't profit from it.

  • Only if people looking at Pathfinder. It's more queer which is terrifying to right wingers. So I give it like 10% chance and up up 25% if paizo gets in on the game

  • I didn't read closely enough to see that the person was named Stephanie. Opps

  • I haven't. But the point still stands

  • What even is he suggesting? I don't apply for jobs online? How and where does he think you are suppose to get jobs then. Strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland where jobs grow on jobbies

  • Many people sell their bodies which we celebrate. Construction, heavy labor, mining etc. are regular people who sell their body for their living and they are all protected and regulated. We celebrate selling your body every time we watch sports for these athletes who entertain us. Every Sunday most of the US celebrates men who sell their body on the football field for our entertainment. Why is selling nude any different?

  • A good article especially when it starts talking about platforms as infrastructure. It getting readily apparent for everyone that the centralized monopoly by a single large entity to regular control and profit off of these platforms doesn't work. I can't work profitability and the power imbalances cause issues. I am surprised they don't talk about open source or regulation. We should treat all social media platforms like we do email with a standard technical method that completely interconnects with any sources. Like we are doing here in the fediverse

  • I know it has reduced my food spending and leftover utilization.
