@Etanarachel@colbertcore What about rape fantasy roleplay, specifically one where one enjoys playing the role of the rapist rather than the rape victim?
@Etanarachel@colbertcore An adult can occasionally have a very childlike appearance, though. Not like an infant, but Shauna Rae, for instance, is actually 23 but looks 8. I suspect that a lot of minor-attracted people would be attracted to her as well because she looks like a child.
@Etanarachel Why should we care about people's choice of sex toys, though? If it's fair game for a minor-attracted person to find a childlike adult, dress them up like a child, have them act like a child, and have consensual sex with them, why is a child sex doll for them so wrong?
@Etanarachel@colbertcore Attraction doesn't equal wanting to act on that attraction in a harmful way. For instance, you acknowledge that one can get sexually attracted to the idea of raping someone but still acknowledge that actual rape is wrong and thus prefer to engage in rape fantasy roleplay, right?
@Etanarachel@colbertcore If the ageplay is realistic, you don't think that it's a good analogy? An adult looking like Shauna Rae (actually 23 but looks 8) hypothetically deciding to have sex with a minor-attracted person while also deciding to dress and act like a child in the bedroom, for instance?
Is it moral to have a couple of children with an egg donor and a surrogate and then purposely give these children up for adoption in the form of an open adoption because one cannot afford to personally raise these children?
Head of Russian delegation to UN climate conference,Oleg Anisimov, apologized to UN for Russia's aggression in Ukraine
“Let me apologize on behalf of all Russians who were not able to prevent this conflict. Those who see what is happening cannot find any excuse to attack Ukraine”
Today in Irpin, my brother’s apartment was looted by Russian invaders. His neighbour calmly asked RU soldiers why they decided to break down his door when she in fact had the keys. They stole a safe with no valuables inside. This is the world’s 2nd strongest army at its finest.
A great Russian dancer, a great Russian writer and a great Russian economist are raising money for Ukrainian refugees. Mikhail Baryshnikov, Boris Akunin and Sergei Guriev are asking the Russian diaspora to contribute to

@tomaspueyo Natural gas is somewhat fungible so shutting down a nuclear plant *anywhere* in the world increases demand for gas worldwide and funds Russian weapons used in Ukraine.
For instance, the U.S. should not shut down the Diablo Canyon nuclear plant.

Ooof. Watch Germany's diplomats at the UN sniggering in clever disbelief as Donald Trump (correctly) points out the risks of depending on Russian energy imports. Just three years ago. The whole thing was dismissed as "outrageous" by Trump-bashers. https://t.co/3vRm6Ih5Kp
Being pro-Russia in Kharkiv in Jan 2014 often meant wanting closer ties with a major investment and trade partner for your city’s industry. Being pro-Russian now means supporting a country that subjected your city to months of devastating shelling, killed your friends and family.
@Russwarne@danieldennett Note how similar the argument Dostoyevsky parodies in 1880 is to the argument for diminished responsibility that Harden presents in 'The Genetic Lottery' in 2021:
@ryansaavedra This is just the beginning. Expect Trump and his minions to (in)directly work with the Democrats against DeSantis.
Trump & the Democrats are in a symbiotic relationship. Trump needs democrats to win the 2024 GOP primaries, and the Dems need Trump to keep the presidency in 2024.
Since Russia decided my article on the Russian Orthodox Church being an arm of intelligence and Kirill a KGB agent should be buried on Google and shadow banned on Twitter I am posting it again. Apparently they are triggered https://t.co/xvVrHOduLx
Interestingly, for the past three months Ukrainian intelligence officials were very confident that all hell was about to break loose in Russia in ways that were dismissed by Western counterparts
