  • Trump Begs Supreme Court to Let Him Go to War With Chicago

  • lol welp let’s just say I’m not optimistic

    Me neither. Me neither.

  • This is it, supreme court. This is the moment where you choose to press the self destruct button on the republic. On "we, the people".

    This is the moment in history where you choose the new Klu Klux King of Chaos and Concentration Camps for profit, where you choose the fat orange faced man who is embodiment of stupidity and stupid hatred over the Constitution and the promise of a nation where the people choose their leaders.

    You're mistaken if you think there's a constitution left for you to interpret. No, there's just a vehicle in the night and some guns with masks.

  • 4chan faces UK ban after refusing to pay ‘stupid’ fine

  • You seem to think that if something is indirect it isn't harmful, so being openly racist with your friends is OK as long as you're not telling the people you're dehumanizing directly? Sounds like you would think cheating on your wife is OK as long as she didn't find out.

    Personally, I don't think there is any good or acceptable racial hatred, and pretending that there is is what got the neofascists so much political clout around the world.

  • I can't think of where "racial hate" could possibly be "just stating an opinion" without also causing harm that is both mental and social.

  • RFK Jr. Warns Teenagers Now Have Less Sperm Than 65-Year-Old Men

  • Surely you must be able to put it on a low setting a few degrees below body temperature. And hopefully no one is trying to get randomly pregnant by one the nation's collective men anyway.

  • RFK Jr. Warns Teenagers Now Have Less Sperm Than 65-Year-Old Men

    Jump

  • Let's assume there are 340million americans, half of whom have no penis and a fifth of whom are under 18. That leaves 4/10 or 136 million men. Lets say the ejaculate 5ml each, so that 200 men make a litre and 200 litres fill a bath, so 40000 men fill a bath. Easy. Swimming pool? 25mx10mx1.5m=3750 cubic metres or 3 750 000 000 000 litres. It'll take too long because each man needs to donate about 10000 litres, and I don't care how much jizz he's claiming the over 65s are making, they'll all have heart attacks if they try that.

    We need a compromise of a hot tub sort of quantity. Say 2000 litres, (450 gallons or so in freedumb units) so we just need 400 000 men, well under 1% of potential donors. Very doable.

    However, on a practical note, if a man took 10 seconds to make his donation to RFK's hot tub jizz bukkake drowning pool, and ten men can surround it at once, even with military timing, that's only 60 per minute, 3600 per hour, that's 111 hours or about 5 days and nights non stop jizzing at an absolute minimum. It's gonna go cold and stale, so whether it gunks up the nozzles or not, I think we owe it to RFK for him to go out comfy and we'd best leave the heat and bubbles on as he is gradually overwhelmed by spunk.

  • Uncircumcised penis owners, did you ever wish you were circumcised?

    Jump

  • I didn’t make a claim either way. I just said the OP’s claim was unfounded, and it is unless and until they provide a study that backs it up.

    You literally wrote that directly above

    And top notch denial of axes to grind, positioning yourself as neutral whilst criticizing others.

    You're fucking lying that you don't have a viewpoint when you're up and down this thread demanding scientific studies from people who are sharing the experiences of themselves and people they know, and all of your "innocently neutral requests for scientific studies" are on one side of the debate and not the other.

    It's hypocritical, disingenuous, dismissive, dehumanizing and a logical fallacy that anyone with a different viewpoint to you has to have scientific studies backing up every point they make. It's a shitty and vacuous debating technique.

    Maybe, just maybe, the people in this thread who remember having a foreskin and don't now (or whose friends have talked to them about that) have the most insight into what difference it makes to have a foreskin, and you could try respecting their opinion rather than demanding scientific proof that their experience is universal.

  • Excellent use of "show me the study" to discredit someone without providing your own study to back up your contrary point of view.

    Might not work in a court of law, but it's strong internet debate fallacy usage.

  • Health Secretary Kennedy, Trump link circumcision to autism through Tylenol

    Jump

  • If I had boys, there's no way I would agree to them being circumcised at all, but you need to know that FGM is much, much worse than circumcision. Most circumcised men can perform happily sexually, but need lube to masturbate. Not so women who have endured FGM.

    There are 4 main types of FGM:

    type 1 (clitoridectomy) – removing part or all of the clitoris

    This is the equivalent of removing the glans or dickhead. Its purpose is to remove pleasure from sex.

    type 2 (excision) – removing part or all of the clitoris and the inner labia (the lips that surround the vagina), with or without removal of the labia majora (the larger outer lips)

    Includes 1

    type 3 (infibulation) – narrowing the vaginal opening by creating a seal, formed by cutting and repositioning the labia

    This makes sex very painful. There isn't a deliberate equivalent for men, but men with severe phimosis also experience pain. Phimosis is usually treatable without surgery, and even after surgery (circumcision) sex is pleasurable. Paraphimosis is an urgent medical emergency where the foreskin is trapped behind the glans, cutting off blood supply, but no one is doing phimosis or paraphimosis to people deliberately.

    other harmful procedures to the female genitals, including pricking, piercing, cutting, scraping or burning the area

    I.e. botched, deliberately or accidentally.

    So...

    The normal outcome of circumcision, "I wish wanking were easier" isn't the same as the normal outcome of FGM, "I wish sex wasn't traumatisingly painful".

    Pretending that circumcision is as bad as, or equivalent to FGM, or even that they're bad for the same reason, REALLY undermines your case to the point of making you look heartless or ill-informed.

  • Well...

    My wife and I have definitely very much enjoyed the process of me acquiring the intimate familiarity I have with the matching area of her anatomy, but if I started calling that a foreskin my access pass would likely be revoked faster than you can say "and you can kiss goodbye to..... wait, no, you canNOT kiss goodbye"

  • He's a great boss. He really is.

    I had goodwill stored up because like me, he uses the tool to several times a day, he really likes it because it makes some tasks far easier (v0.1) and I added loads of extras over the years, and it was me that dreamed it up in the first place.

    The new server constraint affected me on the daily but wasn't going to affect him at all for most of those three months, and even then, not often and there was a workaround for his usage, but he trusted me and he wants my end to be as convenient as his is (very fair minded guy indeed).

    I would go a long long way for him. I went to his wedding in 2023 and we sometimes have drinks after work. He knows how it is, has been there, done that and got the T shirt and isn't afraid to tell truth to power:

    You know you like to have X? We're gonna need Y...

    Remember the prioritisation of Y you were going to do?...

    Yeah, so no, sorry, we don't quite have X, partly because of this and that mistake we made, but also we weren't able to get very close to X because we never got Y.

    Genuinely, cue recommitment of senior management to Y in the next quarter! It might not happen, but no shouting, no blaming, and rationality all round.

    I don't think they like it at all when he says stuff like that, but they love that the crises pretty much dwindled out when they put him in charge and as he gradually recruited more people who put more effort into making things better than shouting and blaming, and as the shouters and blamers left to find employment elsewhere where shouting and blaming was effective. It simply does not work on my boss even a little bit, and he simply never does it. Customers now praise his department instead of complain about it, so he gets a lot of leeway from management to do things his way.
