Ok, Have you in real life ever seen a bathroom that had its light switch Outside of the bathroom. Not like one of those fancy giant bathrooms where the toilet is in its own little room, but a normal sized bathroom where you could be in there doing your thing and someone Outside could just turn the light off on you?

This is so normal to me

Yeah but it's weird

Maybe? normal though.

Maybe? weird though.

No but I'm pro this being a thing

no and what the fuck why would that be a thing

Other

Button.

In Real life. not in a videogame or movie because I've Only seen it in videogames and a friend has spotted it in a movie.

the thing is that Shane LOVES when Ilya is an asshole and he is right there with him. he's joyfully participating. he's setting him up for jokes so he can enjoy the punchline when Ilya delivers. they're gonna be cuddling on the sofa watching a game and tearing every single player to strips while giggling and jerking each other off. asshole4asshole relationship 💖

MAGA boomers SHOCKED by 20y/o commie speaking fluent hog

[red-garden]

Hog 201 for anyone interested in trying this:

Bodily autonomy (like abortion, anti draft, etc) -> “The government shouldn’t be able to force anything on my body I don’t want.”

Anti surveillance -> “I don’t trust big government/big tech (big brother if you’re feeling frisky) with the ability to spy on me and my family.”

Immigration -> “Next to all of us immigrated at some point, I don’t see why the elites get to decide who’s allowed to be where. What’s to stop them coming for me?”

Climate Change -> “Big oil shouldn’t get to determine whether or not I get to go places. I don’t want to be dependent on some big business to survive.”

State Violence -> “I don’t want the goddamn secret police breathing down my neck! I trust my community a whole hell of a lot more to help me than I do the state!”

The vast majority of conservatives think of themselves as underdogs being repressed by the government/the elite, and they value personal freedom (specifically their personal freedom, they don’t care about other people). The will almost always agree with leftist points if you can find a way to blame the problem on their vague enemies (useful, since rich people are the root of most problems), and tie it back to their ability to say fuck everyone else. NEVER appeal to science, theory, logic, or human goodness. Make it seem as if you are a paranoid lunatic who trusts no one. They love it.

#you need to tailor your arguments to people's existing values and priorities if you want to convince them #the flip side is that it's every bit as easy to tailor conservative arguments to convince a leftist audience #so don't get smug #you're not immune to this either <- prev extremely true

i hate how mainstream rpf has gone. it should feel like a seedy backalley interaction while glancing over your shoulder to make sure no one's looking. it should be a secret that it's fine. you should have to, well,, know a guy who knows a guy...

ok i do really really enjoy, when shane comes out to the metros and word quietly gets around the league, the fanfic extrapolation that 70 dl men abruptly slide into shane hollander’s dms. and shane is so mad that they think he would deign to fuck a third liner.

at one point ilya plays with anya at yunas and davids house and they accidentally throw over some empty pots that have been standing near their shed since he was in their garden the first time and he rushes over bc fuckfuckfuck hes still irrationally scared theyd suddenly turn on him and hate him but thankfully nothings broken but-

theres a pack of cigarettes

and hes just staring at it for a few seconds and then goes "huh" and mentally wiggles his finger at his boyfriends mom bc yuna yuna yuna after all these comments about him smoking tsk

he puts them back and tries to hint here or there that he knows over the next few weeks. it never seems to land.

(those were davids)

(this not once crossed ilyas mind)

(plus yuna now thinks he found the cigarettes in her glove compartment for when the speedo ppl call bc theyre impossible to handle otherwise)

(after yuna simply Not Getting It ilya goes back and puts a note in there that says "hah, found them")

(so david assumes that was yuna and starts hinting at it)

(which makes yuna think ilya ratted her out)

(shane doesnt register any of this going on)
