Makes Your Head A-Splode if you think about it too much.

I’m so glad I’m not the only one! 😅

Yeah that’s definitely my problem, I just can’t seem to resist overthinking it 😅

This trope, like how the Addams Family does it, has always really bothered and confused me. Like if the characters followed it to it’s logical conclusion, it wouldn’t make any sense at all, and I just can’t get over that. I don’t know how to explain what’s logically wrong with it, I wish someone would like write a tvtropes page about it

I’ll have to take your word for it, but I have my doubts! Regardless, I feel like it’s better to focus on whether you are doing or have done bad things, than to worry about whether you’re an inherently bad person. You can always work to do better in the future, and to make amends.

No, absolutely not. At least, certainly none of my own, even if I were capable of it… I don’t really see the point in procreating with the world on such a catastrophic trajectory. On the other hand, if I find myself in a situation where I have a home and resources to share, and some unfortunate already-existing kids need those things, I’d certainly offer them a place. That would be just as true for non-kids though, so I dunno how much of a “parent” that’d really make me.

I came to say the same thing about Camellia sinensis, thinking “am I about to be more of a tea purist than is even encapsulated in this chart?” So I’m glad somebody else got there first lol

Me as a vampire and also Marvel’s The Thing: “It’s hemogobblin’ time!”

Mostly I’m onboard with what you’re saying here. Although, like others have said, don’t forget there’s plenty of people on OF who aren’t women! If there is any problem at all, why isn’t it also a problem for them? Second, I definitely wonder how many of the opinions in this thread are coming from other women who’ve done sex work. Those are mostly the only people I wanna hear from on this topic.

As far as the “fakeness” not working for you personally, I might have some good news for you. While of course capitalism does tend to suck all of the joy out of everything, like all professions, there are sex workers who definitely do enjoy their work. At least as much as anyone can feasibly enjoy working under capitalism anyway.

You’d be surprised, attractiveness is subjective!

I was saying the same thing as you a while ago and somebody told me that I’d be surprised and that attractiveness is subjective. And you know what? They were right!

An old PS1 fighting game called Unholy War. It had a lot of really unique mechanics I haven’t seen since.

My boss would be really mad if I tried to not come in for that long

Lowe Mill in Huntsville, Alabama. It’s like a giant collaborative art space in an old factory building. Pretty much the most anarchist space I’ve ever been to, although that’s a very low bar for me.

It’s been great honestly. I’ve got two boyfriends I love very much. While it’s not all sunshine and roses all the time, they’re the only people in my life who I feel like truly have my back, and I have theirs. Of course that’s not something that’s unique or inherent to romance, you could have the same thing with friends, family, etc. Just worked out that way for me.

Oh what a cool concept! I definitely have some to contribute

Yeah totally agree, it looks great!!

Oh god my brain… This one is truly beyond me

Obligatory scaly lizard man of course.

Omg!! Are they finally doing a Starfinder 2e in the same vein as Pathfinder 2e?? Yessss amazinggg!!!

I don’t really understand this stuff super well, but… I suspect what it means is that Google can track you while google maps is open, BUT since it doesn’t have access to the rest of your phone, they’ll have no idea who you are anyway?

Approximately ~7 different packs of Haldiram’s Minute Khana.

It’ll keep me going another week or so, and is (hopefully) a little healthier than ramen! Certainly more flavorful, at least
