Can you blame people? We’ve had at minimum of 4 decades of Hollywood (over-)dramatization on what torture and espionage should look like. Who is to say that wasn’t done on purpose?

Maybe. What better form of protest than an insider leaking sensitive information?
Porn and sex work itself aren’t bad, and are natural extensions of our human condition.
The shameful parts are the people who create sex trafficking rings, child/incest porn, and porn that imitates child/incest porn. There’s probably more shameful uses of porn, as we are also a degenerate society in a lot of respects.

Sounds like to me that you’re ignorant of what mental illness is and how it affects people’s judgment.
~But hey, you get to feel superior, so you’re good, right? 🤷♂️~


Yeah, I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted. Everything you said is true, and respectful.
I think open-ended can be okay, so long as there are milestones we can achieve (i.e. try different things out to see what works and what doesn’t). Something as big as the environment, health/safety, and not completely alienating industries (as much as I hate to say it, we do need them and their resources to an extent), is not something that is going to be easily solved without compromise.
I expect that my last two points will not win me any popularity contests, but they cannot be ignored.


Yes, but there are a few of us out there who want to see good things happen for all people.


For what it’s worth, it’s not anti anything to point out flaws. If anything, it’s being pro because it opens the door for a conversation; which, if both sides come at it in good faith, can lead to change.


In my area, there are special schools dedicated to hosting expelled kids. It most certainly makes things worse and not better.


I can’t help but feel Douglas was poking fun at himself, considering how his editors had to lock him in a room to finish So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish.


It’s like clapping. It hasn’t stopped. It’s just the time between stanzas has been increasing.


Wasn’t this an episode of Dexter?


But keeping things cool itself doesnt need any energy
My electric bill disproves this statement. Otherwise, why would we need electrical devices that remove heat from things?


Congrats! You’ve reached full boomer status. Would you like some tapioca pudding?


In my experience, “young adult” refers to a specific stage in life, and takes place directly after teenage, but before your 30s (i.e. 20-30). In fact, the fact that the word adult is in “young adult” does imply that they are adults, just more to their larval stage.


If that’s not divisive in today’s political climate, I don’t know what is.

Given the one company that has made the most headway with that is SpaceX, I’ll take my chances right here on earth.


But only for certain classes of people.
Dude, this is more of an !asklemmy@lemmy.world thing. Now a shower thought.
