You, sir or madam or they, are a hero. That’s exactly the data I couldn’t remember, but is the reason I felt I had to comment.

They liked their twinks like many men today like their women.
I.e. they don’t like them as people. But they enjoy their bodies.


We still haven’t proven that the amyloids cause Alzheimer’s. They’re a correlation, and it’s possibly the other way around.
This is a definition problem I think. I don’t use the word “responsible” to mean sole ownership. For example. We are all responsible for the cleanliness of our roads. It is a shared responsibility that we all participate in.
And, I think, we are all responsible for modeling good behaviors for people to emulate.
Of course it does. You’re only ever responsible for yourself.
And that mentality does not lead to good things.
Oh yes. Pushing personal responsibility to the end user has always been a very effective security strategy.
I’ll bite.

100% this. But also, you can make your own third space by inviting friends over and asking them to bring friends. I met most of my serious girlfriends at various house parties. Friends of friends are somewhat pre-vetted.

They really are at the top of the bell curve


“they” in this sense is everyone who has historically tried to control and repress others to their own benefit.
Traditionally that’s the religious. But it’s also the capitalists. And now they seem to be working together.


I avoided joining the gym because I’m afraid to cancel.
Not in any civilized country, no.
mRNA vaccines. Net positive power output from fusion. Off the top of my head.
I agree with your concept of capitalism killing innovation and forcing people into dead-end jobs. But that doesn’t mean technical innovation is dead. Just means it’s not progressing optimally and not benefiting the right people.
It’s a very sad fact that many men do not like women, but are attracted to them anyway.
An economist is walking down the street and sees a $20 bill. He doesn’t pick it up because, if it was a really $20 bill, someone would’ve picked it up already.
