Whenever it’s drawings of children, no, I don’t think it’s odd at all to worry about that. I just called it creepy, which I think it is.
No one’s getting hurt, and I’m very open to whatever people want to do to feel pleasure, but I’m also entitled to find it creepy, especially if the girls being drawn are clearly young.

It’s specifically because I get out much, and am in a very long-term relationship with an actual woman that I find the idea of sexualizing cartoon images rather odd, especially when they’re very often images of children, even if not in this specific case.
I mean, there’s a discussion above of jerking off to cartoons, but I’m the one who doesn’t get out much. Keep jerkin’ it homie.

I find the Reddit/Lemmy/Etc fascination with cartoons of young girls deeply creepy. They’re everywhere. How many pathetic pedo virgins are actually out there? Apparently many.
- Comment on I am an American. I used to be proud of my country. Now it feels like a turd circling the drain. Is there anything going on behind the scene that America is actually doing good in? 1 month ago:
Pride should be reserved for accomplishments, not for merely being born within some lines on a map. That being said, some immigration stories could be classed as accomplishments, so perhaps there’s pride to be found there.

The Palestinians have suffered more than enough, and the US is entirely complicit in that suffering already.

Fuck that shit. We don’t want your garbage. That country has already shit on us enough for generations.

I run into people all the time who use the term “America” without at all meaning that country wedged between Mexico and Canada. Los Estados Unidos is often how you’ll hear the nation state referred to in Latin America, whereas “America” usually refers to the entire hemisphere.
It always blew my mind that the USA colonized the word America to have it refer only to themselves. How fucking on-brand is that?

I’ll give you this; historically, they’re at least as real as the concept of whiteness.

Fuck, that last bit cracked me up. Consider it stolen.

I fully agree with you, but add the additional point that countries are fictions as well.

Great info. Thanks so much! I’m no defender of Word or of Microsoft, so I’m always on the lookout for alternatives, though Libre Office most often suits my rather simple needs.

A glance at their website says that the data is only stored in Europe, though on Azure servers encrypted at rest to which Microsoft holds the encryption keys. That last bit is an absolute deal-breaker for me.
Zero- knowledge encryption or don’t waste my time. I’m not putting legal/medical/etc docs into the cloud with only a “trust me bro” from the creators of Co-Pilot.
