Oh, agreed. Anyone who brings virginity into the context of adults having fewer and fewer relationships that matter is either an incel or a troll.
- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 4 days ago:
My guess is that those hobbies are still very much judged by others. It doesn’t matter how many images you make listing famous actors/athletes and their manga/anime/etc choices, the majority of the population will not want to do anything more than call you a nerd.
Hell, some of my closest friends still don’t want to talk about the differences (and their preference) for manhwa vs manga because they think I’ll get judgy with them.
- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 4 days ago:
More or less. There is a lot of brainpower involved in making sure numbers aren’t juiced one way or the other, though, so don’t think it’s just a shot in the dark.
- Comment on Anon questions the epidemic 4 days ago:
They were talking about it way before the epidemic. I remember at least as far back as middle Obama presidency that there was a show talking with one of his campaigners and they brought up the statistics on the number of people that would claim to have X amount of “close friends” declining.
There is a definite difference in the man/woman divide though on those numbers.

What I really learned to do was to stop sucking so many dicks in a row and to not get so full of cum
Teach me, oh master of wisdom. I’m reasonably certain my partner might suffer from chafing due to excess.

I wonder if I’m just weird, because I swear I hate the printed tags more than the paper tags. I can feel the print sticking, especially if I sweat even the slightest bit.

It’s apparently common enough that the military has a specific tool in basic training med-whatevers for cutting off the zipper.
I honestly never even conceived of the notion until I read that fact as a young adult.

It would work, but only to keep you from getting drafted. You’d probably be in some sort of military brig for a good long while.
Much more effective* is to shoot the bastards. We all know how much americans talk about doing it…
*I’m not going to lie here, it’s not more effective *for you*, just for everyone else after a few more follow your example. You’d be consigning yourself to death.

You ever see the gut of a gorilla? They have much better mechanisms and microbiota to get all their nutrients from plants than we could dream of.
Plus they build muscle by all the other things people mention, like genetics and weight lifting (their own mass).

No, comrade, we need a union.

If anyone was hurt there’s no way any news outlet would let such a juicy headline go past in favor of just reporting on the cars.

Ha! I loved beast wars, but yes, there were a great many much better shows… but also as a nerdy kid with only rabbit ears and a once every two weeks trip to the library, I watched whatever I could.

The fuck is a tributary? Because there are way more rivers than just those seven that drain to the mississippi. Wikipedia even says that tributaries include streams, and good lord I know even the tiniest of rivers will have many streams feeding it. Declaring a certain size of river/water body to be a tributary is just fucking around with numbers to prove your point.

Honestly, while the cgi shown is trash, it really isn’t all that bad considering what they had at the time for a kid’s show. They were producing a 30 minute episode a week on a budget that was surely a pittance, much less than 1/4 I’m sure, of a 2 hour film that we would consider really good at the time.

Which is weir, because chicken is one of the few items in the grocery store that I haven’t really seen a large increase in the price, and the all you can eat wings deals at restaurants have only slightly increased. Meanwhile, like you said, everything else that is chicken at a restaurant has noticeably risen.

So the brisket is generally an unappetizing piece of the cow corpse. A long time ago, some realized that slowly cooking it over a very long time, which has been ‘formalized’ into smoking it for 24 hours, makes the meat tender enough to eat. The brisket has different parts, some of which have more fat than others. The moist brisket is the portion where the fat is very thick. Generally the smoking process makes the fat shrink, but it’s still a significant portion of the meat. Think a layer cake where the icing is give or take 1/6 - 1/4 of the cake’s entire portion. That’s moist.
The lean brisket is usually where either the fat was thin enough to not be visible after the smoking, or it was deliberately scraped off before/during the smoking. The meat will not be dry like a piece of toast, but you won’t ever have a piece of fat in your mouth either. The way the particular bbq joint prepares it will differ, so assume these are broad strokes and not very specific designations.
Some people have preferences that are wild. My friend literally wants just the fat and will eat it like it’s candy, while my mother wants it the consistency of jerky.

Never forget to point out the most common* form of gender affirming care is chest/breast reduction for men/young boys.
*maybe a factoid, but I’ve seen it in several places I wouldn’t expect a falsehood to hold up

Limes are often a little too big. I’m more of a clementine, myself.
- Comment on YUM 3 weeks ago:
Which is insane. I remember 1/2 lb moist for $4.99. Brisket used to be a cheap meat because it was always thought horrendous, and smoking it was the only way to tenderize it enough to be palatable. Freaking ridiculous.

Dangit, now that you’ve pointed it out I can’t stop shuddering at it.

apparently the card the insurance company sends you is not proof of insurance in Texas,
The fuck? How the hell is that not proof?
Also, as someone who has also had to pay court fees over bullshit, it’s freaking ridiculous how our society lets that sort of thing happen.

I haven’t gotten a ticket in years, but I think the absolute cheapest tickets are over $100, speeding will be somewhere between $180-300 depending on how much over you were going, and the really big boys like repeated no insurance or passing school busses can climb to $500-1000.
- Comment on Don’t want your license plate to rust now. 3 weeks ago:
Unless your e-ink display has some pretty magical properties, it’s going to be spotted by a cop at random sooner or later, whether that’s at a traffic light, on the highway behind you, or even if they just roll by at a parking lot.
Plus, I can assure you that the technology to instantly alert if a car shows a registration for, let’s say a blue honda, but looks like a red ford, has been around for longer than flock has been in the news. It’s why that shit with texas temporary license plates was such a big deal (you’d see them everywhere throughout the continent). Unless you have a way to know what other cars similar to yours have for their license plates, you’re going to get nabbed. And most places make your switching thing a pretty big deal as far as punishments go.

I think we must have had very different experiences in life. I think the only fetish I ever hear about in the news in a ‘bad way’ is feet.
In the past two or three decades, I want to say there have been at least one or two stories per year about some cop in the area letting people off of tickets if they’ll let the officer lick their feet. We have incredibly large furry conventions, anime conventions, tattoo conventions, reptile owner conventions, and probably more that touch on various kinks and fetishes, but you never hear about any of those sexual shenanigans in the news… so feet fetish folks finding themselves featured on frontline feeds frequently from the news is quite the contrast.
