I’m interpreting this as tacit endorsement of arbitrary game removal.

I’m personally looking forward to seeing people whine about this is the future, losing bits and pieces of their library with no recourse.

Yes, I’ve heard it is very problematic to live with a worn one.

If a man has sex with men his penits get smaller because asshole is too much friction. It becomes thin and long like pencil.

Record thinness? Freddie Mercury, 3.6mm. That’s what excessive amounts of ass gets you.

Isn’t it about how hostile families ruin shit for their kids?

the gap didn’t look good

Yeah, live your entire fucking life to be attractive to that guy.

The only thing worth learning from this is that if there’s so little need for work to be done that “having gaps in the resume” is enough that they’d rather go without, then the work does not need to be done.

It’s beyond time for UBI.

So pond.

Britain is across the pond.

The pond is the Atlantic Ocean.

You’re in the Atlantic Ocean.

É dos Açores?

That’s exactly it, all these astronaut wannabes just want to go to Mars to say the N word.

The Red/Green Mars argument?

A family of blacksmiths from Wien, what’s odd about that?

Yes, certainly.

Not gonna happen, humans don’t prioritize like that.

They’ll make slop and scams in desperate attempts to justify taking their share of the produce from the mechanized fields.

Yeah, about 5-6%.

assuming everyone here is on Linux

Why would you do that?

I wish you were joking, Dragster.

Dear fuck, this rabbit hole goes too deep. I’m done spelunking.

I’d argue two things:

1. Religious people are also delusional, just not usually in the same way as the classical disorder.
2. Furry/Scalie/Otherkin “culture” is not in the scope of the intention of the cultural/religious exception.

Especially considering almost all furries know they’re not actually a dog or a wolf or a cat, regardless of how enthusiastic their roleplay gets. When your seriousness is not shared by the majority of your culture I think it should be obvious even to you that the exception would not apply. That is unless you claim a different, even more niche culture.

And I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess your parents aren’t “dragonkin” or any otherkin, either. It’s not the culture of your hometown or family.

Your otherkin “culture” is no more valid an exception than the joining of a cult.

We seem to have found the crux of it, this is how you convince yourself.

I have little sympathy for you on this one.
You just have a weird, unimportant problem.

I have some sympathy, I think you’ll need a friend when you crash out of it.

I get to advocate for social safety nets and general welfare at the cost of the rich as much as I want regardless of how little acceptance I have for delusional scalies.

This should not define left wing politics.
You should be allowed by the rest of this userbase to define left wing politics with this nonsense.
If you are the left wing, the left wing loses the majority forever.

The progressive movement was supposed to be a realistic movement, without the delusions of religion.
But you lot managed to co-opt the culture of the progressive movement into accepting all kinds of alternative forms of idiocy, but this otherkin shit is arguably less annoying than astrology’s rampant infection of feminism.

Our movement is crippled by insanity. Our contemporaries are nothing like our predecessors. We are significantly worse.
Less capable, less intelligent, less successful.

I hope for our sake it’s the fucking microplastics, because if we managed to fuck this up so bad without suffering from some poison, if it’s completely our own fault, then that’s just fucking sad.

Are we really going to let playing into complete delusion be part of the ethics that shape left wing progressive culture and politics?

We all know this user does not ride or fuck* or magically bond with a fucking dragon. It’s not something we should “respect”.
