As you can see, vaginal pH roughly correlates to distance from the equator, with pH increasing as you move away from the equator. In this essay…

My guy is playing a table at this point

Exactly. It only carries weight if you believe it carries weight or if there are laws/punishments behind it.

But in the eyes of the one committing these crimes they may fully believe they are justified. There are people out there who have minds that are biologically different than the majority. These people may lack empathy or even find joy in hurting others and see no moral issue with it. Who is to definitively say that they are wrong? You would have to believe in a god or follow a religion of some kind for this argument to be sound. And there is plenty of evidence against the existence of a god(s).

You’ve got ghosts in your blood. Better do cocaine about it.

Years ago I was talking with a pregnant coworker about our families. We got onto the subject of how quiet I am. She said “I would hate it if my daughter turned out to be like you.” I was just stunned tbh. Like damn, I can’t help it that I’m quiet. Why is that such a bad thing?

And once again I’m unwillingly reminded that the Berserk horse is a thing.

I had a coworker that was heavily into this stuff. She got breast cancer and decided to go this route. If she isn’t dead she most likely will be soon. The last I heard it wasn’t pretty. She was in her early 30s.

I don’t have an answer and it is the one thing I am truly afraid of. As an autistic man in this society I have come to the conclusion that I will most likely be alone in the future. Developing relationships of any kind is extremely difficult for me. Right now I’m ok because I have family that are still alive and want to care for me. But when they die where will I be? I’ve fully accepted that I may die by suicide in my 50s due to loneliness.

If not an outright ban then a soft ban is likely. There are already many apps/websites that don’t allow VPN traffic. It may get to the point where we have to self-host our own VPNs through a VPS or something like that.

Welp, time to stock up on some older routers or make my own. This country is looking more Orwellian by the day.

I was on it in pill form for about 6 months but developed “down there” problems and decided to come off. Happy to say the effects were not permanent as some people say they can be. Instead I opted for a topical solution and so far that has worked very well with no side effects. I would recommend getting the combined finasteride/minoxidil topical treatment.

“Intellectual stimulation”…yes…yes, I think I like that

This is what I’m afraid of too. I could see apps like fdroid and the ability to install custom roms being taken away within the next year or two. I hope I’m wrong but I don’t have a good feeling. I need Linux phones to be a thing now more than ever.

Well, I’m afraid that’s where we diverge in beliefs then. With a god it is perfectly reasonable to believe that, but without one it’s not.

But who defines them? If there is no god to determine that then that belief is entirely subjective. What one person views as good will be bad to another. How do you determine who is right?

I don’t know why you are being downvoted. This is an excellent question. Personally, no, but that’s because I feel empathy towards other people and enjoy cooperation/community.

However, imagine if you were born without empathy or even enjoyed hurting others. Does that make you a bad person? Our society would certainly see it that way. You would be ostracized/incarcerated for not being the same as others because you enjoy hurting people. But does that make your existence wrong? I don’t think so. To be honest I don’t think there is such a thing as wrong and right, just selfish and selfless behaviors.

All this to say, I would say no and certainly don’t condone it, but if you ask someone else they may say yes. Who is to say that either one of us is right?

This life has no meaning. Absolutely none. Do what you enjoy. You don’t need a “purpose,” grind culture is toxic and will only lead to burnout. Slow down and listen to the birds sing.

Just wanted to say thanks for making me aware of pangolin. I got it up and running! This is so awesome, I can’t believe it exists.
