I feel like pirating media that isn’t sold or offered anywhere legally anymore shouldn’t be called piracy. Girl thats archaeology

i once again want to say that hulu used to be entirely free with ads, and if you watched two minutes worth of commercials at the start of an episode the next 24 hours would be commercial-free. and now you pay $11.99 per month to watch things with commercials. what the fuck are we doing and how did we allow this to happen lol.

nothing makes me go "ooooh we are NOT the same" quite like reading some post about how people talk with their parents about their interests. what do you mean you told your father about stevebucky. what do you mean he asked further questions

[minotauri]

"i sent this article to my relative" "mom & i were discussing dialectical materialism" you navigate the world with such a different set of parameters than i

"Zionism ≠ Judaism" and "Not all men": Growing Pains during deprogramming

I've drawn this parallel before. Since Oc7th, there's been a huge push from antizionist Jews to make sure everyone knows that not every Jew is a strict zionist. Good message, genuinely, that's not strictly wrong.

I can't help but be reminded of "meninism" during MeToo though. Men who weren't rapists and were publicly anti-rape still chose to centre the conversation around themselves. Instead of showing any real solidarity with feminists, a lot of them went on a personal defensive "I'm not like other boys, I'm smol bean, I would never hurt a woman" and refused to educate themselves on patriarchy and rape culture and male privilege because that was for the Bad Men, they didn't need to learn because they were Good Men. They were "nice guys"

I fear this is a problem for Jews too.

"I'm not one of the Bad Jews" isn't the point, it detracts from the anti-zionist movement. It fails to acknowledge that stories of Jewish exceptionalism are told to kids in diaspora households, race mixing isn't strictly prohibited but Jewish diaspora parents will still fuss if you don't marry another Jew and that isn't seen as weird or backwards like when other white parents do the same, Zionism is preached in synagogues and Jewish schools, Jewish institutions funnel money into the Israel project, sometimes without telling people where it goes *cough* K4K,

We know what happens when that goes unchecked too long. We know what became of the "nice guys" who thought they didn't need introspection.

If you're an "antizionist" Jew and the only thing you've said since Oc7th is that you aren't one of the Bad Ones, you aren't doing enough. Non-zionist, maybe, but not anti-zionist until you can confront the Jewish roots of Zionism.

you don’t realize how important lunch is until you’re wandering around thinking about how unloveable and untalented and uniquely cursed you are and then it’s 4pm and you finally eat lunch and you go Oh. oh right.

[podcastwizard]

lot of people commenting on this post like "who eats lunch at 4pm that's a terrible time to eat lunch" yes. that is the point. 4pm lunch is inadvisable. 4pm lunch is not the ideal. 4pm lunch makes the mind demons real.

humiliating to be attracted to a conventionally attractive person. I thought I was a more sensitive and refined pervert than this

[segamascott]

i told a family of five to vacate their home immediately or i would start shooting them the military the news and the government all told me they support me wholeheartedly but someone on twitter called me evil?? i feel UNSAFE we live in such a bigoted society like it's obviously just because i'm gay

[segamascott]

zionists this is how you sound btw

[thesituation]

i don’t feel like debating that topic much farther bc truthfully if it comes down to “women will lose to men in every sport bc they don’t have as much testosterone!!!!!” my elite feminist response is honest to god “ok we will lose with honor as equals instead of having our own special Easy Mode Female category so we can win amongst ourselves” like i’m sorry i just can’t be persuaded. i’m a brick wall. i want co-ed sports

[thesituation]

i bring a sort of “women can lose at some sports against men if it means being regarded as equals” vibe to the debate that “testosterone objectively increases performance” people don’t really like

[dragon-in-a-fez]

the thing about being "good with kids" is all it takes is literally just not trying to control and mould them with every interaction. it's just being a normal person and engaging with them through normal interactions like having conversations and playing games. it's just being genuine and friendly and not perceiving them as lumps of wet clay you are there to shape. "oh you're so good with kids" thanks it's because I think they are people

[throathole]

It’s impossible to vent about being lonely in the gay male community on here bc the pokemon jockstrap dudes will start reblogging it like “me except for my bi-weekly sex parties where all my 50 closest friends (no fats allowed) meet up and fuck each other in the ass” like okay I don’t think that’s the same as what I’m feeling

[heedra]

so far one theme of the 30s for me has been realizing that literally every human being on earth who appears completely cool and collected and together with it at first glance has some threshold past which enough known information about them will shatter that mystique completely. i don't even say this negatively or pessimistically it's just been helpful to keep in mind that we're all like that.

[patricia-taxxon]

the thing is, if your younger self was a bigot or an abuser, u can't make people forgive you. but you still gotta forgive yourself, like that's non-negotiable, dude. that happens before u can even ask the question of earning forgiveness from anyone lese

[patricia-taxxon]

oops, in your attempt to martyr yourself out of respect for your victims you accidentally sabotaged your own ability to conceptualize yourself as anything but a perpetual evildoer who is always one bad day away from hurting everyone you love, all but guaranteeing history to repeat itself. rookie mistake

[patricia-taxxon]

im gonna try explaining myself, cus im a gambling addict and im waiting for the day that it actually works.

"forgiveness" is personal, that's why I said in the post that you might inflict harm on people for which they can never forgive you, but that's their quest. if you abuse someone, you can't go no-contact with yourself. you actually keep living in your own head indefinitely, and ultimately you need to learn to live with yourself in order to continue living a full life without further harm. this is not necessarily an anti-carceral thought, although i am generally anti-carceral myself. I simply want people to like, fix their heart and atone for real with measured accountability & self love instead of dissociating, self-marking themselves forever and guaranteeing their recidivism.

You and a remorseful abuser would both think I'm giving the easy, coddling path. It's actually the tough pragmatic path in disguise.

[actualaster]

The kinds of people who argue once you abuse somebody you can never, ever change and grow past it and stop being abusive are almost 100% of the time people who will contort themselves into intricate knots in an effort to justify any and all harm they cause to anyone else in order to make sure they never have to come to terms with the fact that they're equally capable of being abusive to others (and in a not insignificant number of instances I've seen people who do this be abusers themselves but they've convinced themselves their victims deserved it so they're still morally pure).
