I downvoted because I hate people talking about romantic relationships experiences like everyone has or had one. And overall reminding me in any way romantic love exists

Fear is part of the thrill tbf
- Comment on What even is my eXpEriEnCe here? 1 week ago:
Yep, most of programming done today is reinventing the wheel by grabbing someone’s Github project and slapping aggressive monetization on it.
- Comment on Realistically, what do people plan to do on the Moon and Mars that requires a permanent, or long term human presence there? 1 week ago:
I don’t think anyone serious (not techbro grifters) actually suggests long-term human presence on Moon and Mars
- Comment on Xbox lays off 268 more employees, merges Obsidian into Bethesda and puts Activision in charge of Halo 2 weeks ago:
I am surprised they actually didn’t see it. When gamepass was introduced, it seemed like insanity - how is $10 subscription with access to $60 titles is going to pay off, this makes no sense. Well… It didn’t.

These guys have chocolate plant milk, and claim to be B-certified on sustainability practices. Pretty expensive so I don’t buy them anymore, but tastes good.
Although I must admit I haven’t done much research on them, so I dunno, maybe they are shadier than pretend to be.
Perhaps if you have local farmers selling milk, that would be the most ethical way.
- Comment on I'm right and the other vegans are wrong 4 weeks ago:
Who defines “common sense” and “moderation”? Meat eaters?
If vegans were majority, then you would be, too, called a radical for saying “we should build a slaughterhouse to give people PTSD”
I am not even vegan, but we can’t trust meat eating majority to write the rules on what’s acceptable amount of meat eating. This is just biased and unfair.

To get the following result:

Geesh, only checks note $5,000? You people are so greedy these days
I live in a car and sell my body on the streets so I can cover my friend’s college tuition.
If you don’t help your best friend with everything you can, are you really his best friend? or is he just some dude thats chill to hang out with?
- Comment on Corporate media, owned by billionaires, refuse to recognize the wave of democratic socialism 1 month ago:
this is the shit that would transform the US to a beautiful place to live in
Social democracy alone could do that? You might be overestimating it then. Ideologies are not magic

- Comment on The gaming industry is truly messed up… 2 months ago:
Better keep for yourself, genuinely. 28 million for green lobbying is a drop in the ocean against Big Oil lobbying.
They get 730 billion USD worldwide in government subsidies ONLY. Nevermind them also, like, having awesome profit margins.
I am all for climate action, but not throwing away 28m into the abyss.
- Comment on AI girlfriends VS Egirls 2 months ago:
Nothing here says she did sex work though. She was paid to talk to men online as an egirl, probably OF or Patreon

Ethics exist independently of any deities even if they did exist.
If ethics didn’t exist separately, and God is actually the source of good, then we would have a lot of logical paradoxes to solve.
For instance, let’s assume God is who defines goodness and educates us on it, and goodness does not exist without God.
Thus, we recognize we don’t have inherent ability to define what’s good or bad. But that also means we can’t prove God is good, because we already recognized only God can define what’s good.
I might have butchered the logical fallacy a bit, logic is hard, but I remember it roughly being stated this way.
