I kid you not, the dad has been on the show Intervention for meth addiction, Divorce court as a result of his continued meth addiction, and does gay porn to pay for his meth addiction. He’s enormously homophobic, but he’ll do gay sex for drugs.
I don’t know whether to hate him, or pity him. He must hate himself quite severely.
Oh yeah man, just have two homes in this economy. Great idea.
If you don’t know what a parasocial relationship is, you can always look it up.
OnlyFans is just one step below prostitution. They will vanish overnight when sex work is legal.
This is absolutely not true, and is absolutely dripping with sexism.
Settling for OnlyFans is ridiculous when there are literal TBs of porn out there.
People aren’t paying for porn. They’re paying for parasocial relationships.
That should be available on mastodon such that you can donate to your fav people/orgs
This Already exists. You can stick the URL to your Patreon / Ko-Fi / LiberaPay / Venmo / Cashapp / PayPal / Zelle / OnlyFans / WeChat / etc. into your Bio. There’s even a convenient grid of listing lots of URLs or other info.
Don’t make the mistake of wanting an “everything app”. Integrating DeFi into Mastodon itself would be a catastrophe. Let people use the financial tools they already have, instead of trying to create some new banking system built on social media.
This post links to Soapbox, which is run by Alex Gleason, the Neo-Nazi who runs Poast, Baest, Spinster, and even helped run Truth Social. We’re already in fashy shadow-fediverse territory here.
Nostr is literally a social network made by and for Bitcoiners. Its defining feature is being “censorship proof”. Scams, Nazis, and CSAM are pretty much everywhere.
Nostr is basically decentralized 4chan with worse users.
Look, pitching Web3 on Lemmy is already a stupid idea, linking to a site run by Alex Gleason, the Neo-Nazi that wants to turn the Fediverse into a fascist playground, is even stupider.
Fuck every part of this post. Fuck Nostr, Fuck Crypto, Fuck Soapbox, Fuck Alex Gleason, Fuck Truth Social, Fuck Neo Nazis, and Fuck every other social cancer involved.
I think they’re also sacrificing the image of climate change activism.
Well, those people are fucking stupid, and I don’t intend to adjust my worldview to accommodate their stupidity. Same as the majority of Americans who believe in a magical man in the sky: The majority of people believing an obvious lie will never make the lie true, or the vile things they justify with that lie truly just.
If the AR-15 is the same as every other gun, someone needs to explain the reason why it is overwhelmingly the weapon of choice for mass shooters if they want that argument to be taken seriously.
If endorsing the heaps of dead children that the current interpretation of the 2A produces annually is how we “win”, are we really winning?
That term can mean a lot of things, but fascists definitely care about aesthetics. They frequently complain about how art has been neglected and the world has embraced functionalism and minimalism to a fault.
While this isn’t a terrible argument in a vacuum, most of these people have a very close minded idea as to what kinds of American art has value, but cutting arts funding this severely is just an invitation for more functionalism and minimalism.
I have some bad news for you.
An AR-15 is really only good for wartime scenarios (and mass-murder). If your goal is self defense, you have chosen a terrible gun that limits your mobility and cannot protect you at close range. A handgun is vastly superior for the purpose of self-defense.
Not that your choice of gun matters here. The choice to have a gun at all actually increases your risk of being victim of a violent crime, and that’s just the odds for you. Having a gun in your house at all greatly increases the risk that you or someone in your home will die accidentally, or by suicide. Those odds are greater than those of any violent lunatic breaking into your home and murdering anyone in it.
If you want a gun because you expect to be at war with tyrants, more power to you. If your goal is to minimize the risk of harm to you and your family, unless you have some actual enemies you expect to have to deal with, you are better of without a gun in your home, or at least not one that is easy to access.
I mean, the actual answer is that this is just another “trigger the libs” exercise, and they are choosing the AR-15 because it is the favorite of mass-shooters.
They don’t want to celebrate guns, obviously, or they would choose something native to Michigan like you say. They want to celebrate whatever the left opposes, even if it means celebrating the weapon of choice for mass murderers.
Yeah, but good luck getting a green card or a chance at naturalization.
And two years is a long time to be exploited, if that’s something they have to endure.
Explain to me how you can issue permanent residency as a condition of marriage in a system that allows divorce for any reason, that doesn’t introduce the threat of marital coercion.
You don’t think men would use conditional residency to manipulate and control immigrant women? There’s a whole cottage industry of “mail-order brides” predicated on this fantasy.
We need to protect Dreamers, and their families, but we need to make sure we’re not creating a system that can be used to exploit people.
The issue here is abuse. If getting married to an American means you get automatic permanent residency, then an American can use that to force obedience from a spouse.
If you have the right to divorce at will (which is an important right), you’ll basically have the right to deport your spouse at will.
Well, the gigantic pile of low-end audio I ripped using yt-dlp begs to differ. Half a million tracks so far. Perfect for my OpenSwim headphones. Tiny mp3s to maximize my 4GB of storage, and shit quality to match what I’m getting from bone conductors (which are, for no compelling reason, compatible with FLAC).
I swim a lot, and have a lot of free disk space, so I promise this makes sense.
Where are you getting a 30% increase?
Adding 14 tons a year to the 17,520 (48 x 365) tons of meteorites per year is a 0.07% increase (assuming that every meteorite is 100% aluminum and burns up entirely, which is definitely not reality)
Yeah but you’re a person who sees other people as human and values their lives and well-being, not a cop.
Yeah man, the ruling class wants us to hate our landlords. Excellent take man, your head must be heavy with brain.
