@charlescwcooke@EsotericCD We are all so lucky that insane people like Elon have unfillable voids inside them that lead them to endlessly solve problems for humanity instead of relaxing and enjoying life
@onetreeduck@st_louis_stan@heisei_ramen The same way I would rather not smell cookies at all than have someone bring out a tray of fresh baked cookies and not let me eat them.
@grlfrmboston@emilykmay This is just how male sexuality works. I love non-sexual touch/intimacy! But I can’t help that making out with my partner whom I love and find incredibly attractive turns me on. If we’re not gonna have sex, I’d rather show her physical affection in a way that doesn’t turn me on
@amalth3a__@emilykmay I’m just expressing that it feels unpleasant! I think it’s important for men to understand women want/need this, and for women to understand that this can be unpleasant for men.
@amalth3a__@emilykmay No amount of therapy can make me not get turned on from making out, nor can it make getting turned on with no release less physically unpleasant.
But I’m empathetic to my partner’s needs and am happy to do this for her! I just need to take care of myself so I can fall asleep.
@amalth3a__@emilykmay This is a completely unconscious physical response that I have no control over. I can and do control how I behave in response to it. I recognize what’s going on in my brain and that logically it makes no sense to be angry, so I don’t act on it or pressure my partner in any way.
@cafreiman It’s terrifying how few people understand how markets work. Humans get rich by producing more bananas for other people than they buy/consume themselves!
@xwanyex They think this because the only black people they interact with are other neurotic progressives who fully believe the only reason they haven’t been killed or assaulted by police yet is sheer luck.
@Noahpinion As an American, I can’t imagine facing this inevitable, looming challenge to humanity and not thinking we need to work harder and innovate more
@StatisticUrban To the extent that I care about this meaningless issue, I think how much of a New Yorker you are is determined by how much of the accent you have
@north0fnorth A homeless man randomly punched me in the back of the head and gave me a concussion because I was with my sister and he thought I was abducting her. The police could not arrest him because he was not mentally well. Forgive me if I don’t want to be in spaces with people like that.
