This is why I’m always a bit askance when presented with Atheism as some kind of enlightened philosophy.

Its not a philosophy, its a position on the existence of god.

is kinda simple-minded and divorced from any historical perspective on its face.

Its simple because its only a statement of belief in no god in the form of identification. A historical perspective is not needed to come to a conclusion as to whether people who believe in god are stupid or smart. You can also do that through thinking about their rationality or logical process for coming to those conclusions.

You’re casually dismissing whole intermediate strains of philosophical and literary development

If I wrote a philosophy or theology about how everything is made of bananas, and then for hundreds/thousands of years people argued about the nuances of my absurd and baseless belief system I think it’d be fair to dismiss it anyway. It doesn’t matter how much fan fiction is written about Musaceae-ology. You don’t have to read it, you can safely ignore it.

He was being a bad person the moment he thought “I hope she gets abused by her boyfriend.” No need to do research on the guy after that point.

That said, he’d only saying that because hes incredibly close to being depressed and in extreme self loathing in response to being rejected and trying to protect his his will to live via delusional projection and lashing out. “She’s the one with a problem not me. I’m great. She’s a piece of shit and deserves to suffer.”

People who don’t delude themselves about how great they are unfortunately usually don’t respond to rejection with “I need to improve myself” or “I’m just not his/her type I’ll find someone.” but with “I should kill myself, its hopeless. I’ll be romantically alone forever and I can’t take it.” and the sheer mortal terror of potentially thinking that way causes the delusional insulation and projection.

I’m bi (specifically polysexual, but that gets confusing because its less well known and I’m also polyamorous) and my attraction to specific genitals is roughly equal to body morphology and a cute face’s importance, but I’m simply way less less picky about them.

I wish I was just as non-picky about the body morphology and cute faces. My romantic life would probably have been way more fulfilling at this point if that had been the case.

I oscillate between wishing I was attracted to basically everyone with every possible kink (outside of the unethical options) and no attraction at all.

Asking me out is a step beyond complimenting my appearance though.

If they were so bold as to ask me out they weren’t afraid of coming off as creepy.

I’ve had women ask me out who had literally never said a positive thing about my appearance a singular time before hand.

For once I think I agree with Linux purists.

Fuck I might need a shower.

That’s not what the people who are gleeful about his impending death are downright cheering about. They’re gleeful because of their parasocial hatred of the man.

What you are talking about is an entirely different discussion. You are just shifting the goalposts.

I hate Biden because he had a major hand in letting Trump win, but I legitimately do not give a fuck that hes dying of cancer, pro or con. He is irrelevant now. And the people invested in this are experiencing their own derangement syndrome, only worse than most cases because Biden is no longer even president.

You aren’t getting laid if you are broke, unless you are very very hot or very very charismatic.

What if I don’t give a flying fuck about Biden? And I find both the people dancing about his nearing demise and the people clutching their pearls about that fucking stupid? There are almost certainly more important things of substance to place your energy into.

I’m so fucking tired.

Usually 3, sometimes 18 if its hot in my room. However, I’m considering switching to 5 & 20 as of late.

Expiration dates are useful, but they are not usually a hard end point to a food’s safety or edibility.

Its not really that fey is a slur (IDK if it is and I’m bi) but that he said “That’s the problem” afterward. Like, saying its unfortunate that hes the gay dude of the power rangers and that the gay guy got named after him is a problem. Its a very “your dad is kind of homophobic” level but its still shitty.

non-problematic

I mean, I don’t hate Bryan Cranston. In fact I still like him a lot… but I have some bad news.

Now he at least apologized for it and seems earnestly sorry. And doesn’t even remember saying it. But I think this goes to show that basically no one is “non-problematic”.

Advanced it a few more levels and combine it with future robotics and AI and you have a girlfriend/boyfriend printer.

West World here we come, hope you are ready to be eradicated by a hoard of anime girl robots.

“Ghoulish” are you sure you are using that word correctly?

Usually when people complain about internet porn artists and gooners they call them degenerates.

For some straight guys and gay ladies a girl could be mean to them and that’d increase how much they want them.

That’s a fairly small subset though.

Yes on the first thing, but its more of a mixed bag on the second. There certainly are people that’d prefer easy though.

I feel like this feature is a good idea that has come too late for me. I already “group” stuff via windows. That’ll be a hard habit to break.
