But how will everyone know how awesome/lame I am because I was(n’t) on the banlist?

Just got arrested for a supposed DWI even though I blew a 0.0000000. Don’t cops need to read your Miranda rights to you? I asked for a blood or hair follicle test and I was denied. WTH is happening?
… did you get radicalised? :P

- Comment on Do pedophile/ephebophile s have a tendency to seek out friendships or romantic relationships with young adults as well as with minors? 22 hours ago:
It’s difficult to discern between the people praying on young adults because they want to exploit young adults or they themselves are immature (or other legal but distasteful paradigm) and those praying on young adults because they are settling on the nearest legal target.
I think the current views are sufficient. These relationships are frowned on but legal. It’s not impossible for these relationships to be mutually beneficial for both parties but it is unlikely. Having them be legal but frowned upon helps raise caution when it might be abusive or call attention to that to the parties involved.
I have no comments on the love life of Mr Di Caprio.

seek out friendships or romantic relationships with young adults?
So, there are kinds of people you hear about culturally that despite whatever age bracket they are in, for some reason, keep wanting to go out with people that have just come out of high school, and are 18+.
For SOME reason, they KEEP trying to get into these kinds of relationships.
I wonder why that is? Not “oh, this random person I encountered and have good chemistry with happens to be lower age than me, but my previous and next partners have been a roughly sensible age for me”. No, these people keep going for that age range specifically; people who are legally adults, but only just.
I wonder what motivates these people to do that? 🤔

There’s a lot of stuff that we do today that the same people doing it considered pathetic in the 90s.
Well, when they thought the girl on the other end of the phone sex line or a stripper they kept visiting was their girlfriend, that was pathetic in the 90s, and it still is.
This is somewhere between fucking your secretary and fucking your vacuum cleaner.

- Comment on Just as Nolan intended 5 days ago:
Following a negotiation between Nolan and Warner Bros. executives, the studio arranged for the film to be released in seventy countries, with a run time of 150 minutes, on August 26,[105][106][107] following preview screenings in Australia and South Korea on August 22 and 23.[108][109] The film opened in select cities in the United States on September 3, gradually expanding in the ensuing weeks.[105] On September 4, it was released in China.[110] The lack of available movies afforded it more screens per multiplex than would otherwise have been possible.[111]

them dates are before the vaccine became available. He drove a bargin as hard as he could, to get as many people to see the film as he could.
Yeah, he’s not a politican, but neither was Typhoid Mary.
- Comment on Just as Nolan intended 5 days ago:
Reminder that he didn’t give a fuck about controlling outbreaks of pre vaccine COVID and that he wanted to force people to see Tenet in cinemas.
You know, jam hundreds of people into a closed room for two and a half hours so that you can have super spreader events multiple times a day.
I watched that shit on my phone while sick in bed. Thank you for reminding me that all his films deserve the same treatment.
- Comment on Why do Britain get to send three teams to the World Cup? 6 days ago:
History. The first international match was between Scotland and England. The UK is a country made up of 4K constituent countries, thus, for some sporting events, due to previous national organisations being formed, and inertia.
This is actually to their detriment, as there have been Welsh, Scottish and Northern Irish players that would have helped “the national team” but ended up in their home country’s team, like Gareth Bale or in the past, I think, George best.
It gets interesting with other sports, where N. Ireland joins with the all Ireland team.
Good news for you and Britain though, in the Olympics they compete as team GB. AFAIK the Scots contribute nicely with their curling prowess.
- Comment on How does death with a mechanical/artificial heart work? 1 week ago:
Depends on how it’s meant to work. If it amplifies the actual heart, it might not do much. They usually have a power supply, which will make it keep doing what it does.
So, if it’s a 100% artificial heart, it will do what it does. If it’s there to force the heart to beat without the heart’s natural movements, it will keep force it to beat the same as before, same as if you pass electricity through any muscle.

- Comment on Did Iran really strike first without a reason or is it BS (like I think it is) and the US is saying they struck first? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think Iran have conducted an attack on the United States yet, so I guess it’s BS that Iran struck first.
Please let me know if Iran did bomb somewhere in New Jersey or Wyoming or whatever.

There’s a trend on more spending on cheap entertainment during recessions and times of finacial hardship
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_game_industry
Since 2000, the video game industry was considered recession-proof, having thrived compared to other industries during the 2008 Great Recession, and as one of the more profitable industries during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021. Video games are seen as a low-cost vice and entertainment for consumers when approaching recession.[74][75] However, in 2022, atop pandemic economic fallout including chip shortages, supply chain disruption, and consumers preferring outdoor activities, the industry started to indicate recession with global revenues falling for the first time in twenty years.[76]
It seems that they went a bit too far recently for price gouging, but you can do research on similar pre video game “amusments” like films and such and find similar patterns
