I can think of a few things that do more to contribute to rape and degrading views of women than porn, which has existed as long as human civilization has:

• The actual rape that happens in almost every dynamic where authority is involved: manager/employee, student/teacher, coach/athlete, agent/client, in police custody, etc.
• The instances of actual rape, at best, not being investigated. At worst, the woman becomes subject to harassment, bullying, and smear campaigns
• The flood of right-wing manosphere propaganda in the YouTube algorithm demonizing feminism
• Gamergate
• Churches pushing purity culture
• Churches forcing women into quiet subservience that keeps them from speaking out against leaders and husbands
• Politicians passing anti-“DEI” legislation rolling back decades of progress in women’s rights
• Politicians passing legislation in some states to lower the age girls can get married
• The techno-fascist emphasis on birth rate
• That school board official sexually harassing an underage girl on camera and nobody in power giving a shit
• “Grab them by the pussy. When you’re a star, they let you do whatever you want.”
• Jeffrey Epstein

Are they not allowed to?

That’s the SAID (specific adaptation to imposed demand) principle at work. You’ve gotten used the movements you do every day and your muscles can perform them more efficiently. The same will eventually happen with running, once you’ve been doing it long enough for it to not feel like a new movement. Keep at it.

My wife did say she didn’t like seeing all the stuff just out like that. I reminded her it was a small compromise compared to spending over $100/mo on streaming services.

Dust and jank, you say?

Also the bleached hair, excessive makeup, lip injections, and comically large breast and butt implants.

Mine is Final Fantasy summon monsters!

The only bad thing about Spec Ops: The Line is you can’t talk about what makes it so good without massively spoiling it.

What was that about national security and bringing those jobs back stateside?

Promise?

And she lost her house while in jail.

Getting laid more often than your dad

God, what a fucking child. I’m sick of being governed by hurt feelings.

Well yeah, Anthropic’s statement said as much. And they already had a contract with the DoD. This isn’t a gotcha.

That’s some good quality bone hurting juice right there.

I see the problem. They didn’t load the tic-tac-toe program.

Manjaro is Missing another certificate

In the game, even if you’ve built yourself up, an unlucky roll can still lose you the game. As opposed to real life, where the government decides you’re too big to fail.
