I think one of the funniest abortion stances I've heard was from my parents neighbor. He's a like, hard-core libertarian viking larper guy who is very tall and very fat and very bald.

He believes a fetus is human with a soul, but also its "basically attacking the woman's body" so if she wants to get rid of it, that's "basically self-defense". He compared it to shooting a home invader. So he supports abortion not as healthcare, but as killing a baby in self-defense

[status-quo-hater]

Y'know I'm so glad someone reminded me of this. Because this was also discussed.

My stepmother did NOT like the way her Libertarian Viking Neighbor framed pregnancy as the fetus "attacking the woman". She incredulously told him this was extremely disrespectful to expectant mothers to portray pregnancy as so violent and negative.

Libertarian Viking Neighbor's response was that people consensually hurt each other all the time, and "there's like a whole community about that, with the acronym the one that starts with a B" And his reasoning was that if the mother was consenting to bring attacked by the baby, it in fact wasn't violent and negative because there was consent.

He brought up people consensually hurting each other, didn't go for one of the obvious answers like boxing or body mods or something, no he went STRAIGHT TO BDSM and he DIDN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE ACRONYM

Always bear in mind that there is absolutely no legitimate evidence that Luigi was actually the one who killed the insurance company guy.

[theconcealedweapon]

Of course he wasn't. He was at a party with me that day.

[tiny-space-whale]

No but like literally, actually. All bits aside.

He didn't do it.

The cops very clearly planted evidence on him because they had to make an arrest because all eyes were on them and whoever actually did the deed was making them look stupid.

Why would the real killer hero have kept the weapon on his person and traveled two states over while carrying it and a manifesto in his bag, conveniently turning the crime into a federal matter? The same guy whose bag they found in a park, filled with monopoly money? Why did the police turn off their bodycams, take Luigi's stuff, drive a block away, turn their bodycams back on, go back into the restaurant, and then arrest him?

From the moment of his arrest, even left-of-center media has been presuming his guilt without examining anything (e.g. calling him "the killer" instead of "alleged" or "accused") and then when I say he didn't do it, the nearest person chimes in with some quip that tells me they think he did do it but should go free anyway. Don't get me wrong, I would have the same attitude if he had done it. But he didn't. It makes me feel like the only sane person in the world, even among my staunchly leftist friends.

ppl trying to frame art as something thats been historically a “privilege” restricted to the upper classes pisses me off saur much….. when you have no idea what youre fucking talking about ❤️

[grecoromanyaoi]

the way ppl like to envision working/lower class people (or even just… ppl living outside those dynamics) throughout history as like…. eternally miserable illiterate idiots that only know eating gruel and dying of the plague is fucking infuriating. people sang songs, told stories, wove fabrics, embroidered, knitted, decorated their homes, their places of worship, their tools, their food, their clothes, their hair, their bodies, for thousands upon thousands upon thousands of years. everyone, throughout all of human existence, loved art. created art.

some of you unironically talk like 18th century colonialists but with the labels scratched off.

[grecoromanyaoi]

like. you may be stupid

[marzipanandminutiae]

saw a post on here that said that, before recorded music, only upper-class people had access to music because they could pay musicians

besides the blindingly obvious flaw here (so…you’re paying musicians to WORK…which would make those musicians what class exactly?), that’s just. patently absurd. if you have a scrap of wood to make a whistle, if you have a box with strings stretched taut across it, if you have a solid Anything to slap rhythmically with your hands, if you have nothing but your own voice, humans can and will make music anytime, anywhere

and now I make a point of saying, at my house museums, that all classes of people made and enjoyed music long before recordings came along

[headspace-hotel]

Musical instruments are literally some of the oldest human made objects, we have flutes that are 80,000+ years old. It’s been a basic human skill to be able to make a flute or a drum etc across cultures.

And humans sing! Humans sing while they work, it’s just a Human Thing, adsgxcstchchbnjcszv

having your own money is fucking dangerous because the only person stopping me from buying whatever I want is myself. and myself has bad judgment sometimes

We tried to warn you about the "adult content" bans. Now Kickstarter is starting that shit

[problematic-faves-appreciation]

"It must have serious value!"

Staight-up sounds like obscenity law/Miller Test-type crap.

[thatdisasterauthor]

So fucking pissed off at this. Those terms are so damn slippery and unenforceable.

And this is honestly so much more infuriating given how long Kickstarter has held the stance of "products are the responsibility of the project creator, not us, we have no liability." If you get scammed on a project Kickstarter won't help you, they say you assumed the risk when you agreed to back a project for something that wasn't real yet. But now they're turning around and doing this? Why am I allowed to assume the risk of not getting the product I back, but not seeing the scary scary sExUAl cONteNt?

[thatdisasterauthor]

Sent a long message to Kickstarter about this. If you would like to do the same, here is their contact page: https://help.kickstarter.com/hc/en-us/requests/new. Please be respectful in your comments, screaming at them will not fix anything.

Once you submit your comment, you will get an email from support asking you to verify that you sent it. You must click this link for the comment to go through! It's a spam protection thing they have.

Very well said and might I add: a... anything and everything can be sexually gratifying to anyone. How would they even apply these checks if I say "naaaaahhhh fam, I definitely did nOT create this thing specifically for gratification"?? How would they even know if I made a zine about purple umbrellas with frogs painted on purely for the sexual gratification of myself and a select few? lol

And - for the nth time - I don't know how to tell this to terminally online purity culture people but sexual gratification is part of the life of the majority of people on Earth. If we keep repressing this in ways of such plaforms enforcing rules against it, it's gon' be reaaaal unhealthy out there, real soon! (Already is. Just saying.)

[thatdisasterauthor]

Yep, that's a lot of what my message sent to them covered. And how this will disproportionately effect queer people.

Kickstarter Reverses Controversial NSFW Ban And Blames Stripe

Kickstarter's COO stated that the now-reverted NSFW guidelines were put in place due to campaigns being 'suspended by Stripe mid-funding'

[communist-ant-hill]

Ya'll remember how online games made specifically for children were programmed in a way that made it practically impossible to share your personal info?

When age, gender, location was censured like profanity in the name of protecting kids?

But suddenly the Only Way to keep children safe online is to make sure that they have 0 privacy?

Yeah ok. Sure. For the children.
