I've got that paperback.

Ia! XYGDLFW ftaghn!

At least "dingbao" can be pronounced. Some of the others sound like names for elder gods in bad Lovecraftian fanfic.

Just block JS by default using uBlock origin. Install mpv with youtube-dl and feed YouTube URLs into mpv. No need for a separate extension to avoid the morons commenting on YouTube.

No, you're not the asshole. But I'm the guy who won't do shit unless it's explicitly part of my job description.

The real issue is the absolutely pathetic state of sex ed in the US. A lot of these people probably grew up thinking that "safe sex" meant doing it when she isn't ovulating and somehow never learned any better despite living through the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s.

Nothing wrong with that. A lot of them have spent their entire adult lives working for the man. 40+ hours a week on the job from 18-65 isn't a life; it's a fucking life sentence.

I'm all for optimistic nihilism. Nothing is true, everything is permissible, and do what thou wilt is the whole of the law.

Nevertheless, I had changed the trajectory of at least one person's life when I asked her to marry me and she said yes. I owe her too much to act as if what happens to her after my death isn't at least partially my responsibility. I won't go to my grave knowing I was that sort of man.

Traditional marriage vows are "in sickness and in health, till death do us part". My vow will outlast the heat death of the motherfucking universe. I'm hers for as long as she'll have me.

If I'm going to have a parasocial relationship, it's going to be with somebody possessed of too much pride to call themselves a "content creator".

That alien's gonna die listening to "Blood Red Skies" by Judas Priest.

I might not believe in God, but there's at least one person depending on me who would be in deep shit if I yielded fully to nihilism (as believers insist atheists like me are wont to do) and lived entirely in the moment with no thought to the future or to any consideration but my own momentary pleasure. I'm not going to fuck her over.

OP's not wrong, though. Inmates of boomer gulags are old, not dead. They're gonna fuck unless you keep 'em in solitary confinement 24/7.

We already have a perfectly good nuclear fusion reactor about 93,000,000 miles from our planet. We just need to make better use of its output.

This is why I don't use airpods when I'm working on-site. Even if my hair was short enough that people could see that I had them in, they'd just keep talking like I could possibly give more than a wet fart about what they were saying.

Being autistic, it's a lot easier for me to not believe in God than to believe in God and accept that he had a better reason for making me the way he did than merely being the sort of demiurge who drinks on the job and was having an off day at the moment of my conception.

It's also easier to not believe in God and chalk up my existence to bad luck than to accept that my conception was basically God's malevolent joke on my parents since my mother was on the pill and my father was wearing a condom.

This isn't sudden, or a mere tantrum. Congressional Republicans have been doing shit like this since they won a majority for the first time in years back in 1994.

I'm curious to see how the the Klansmen in Congress will punish Mike Johnson. My money is on newly-discovered "evidence" that Johnson's been cavorting with underage rent boys.

She'll have more success delivering on the promise of a pony and a blowjob for every American.

I wouldn't fuck her with Zeus' dick.

There aren't any performers I hate enough to cast in this. They'd be likely to get shot by LB and MTG's fans.
