@HalleniumGaming@SimonMitK@CriticalEDH Not saying a store can’t enforce their rules, it’s every person’s right to live and die by what they wanna do with their shit. But having the opinion that other people shouldn’t be able to enjoy an aspect of a hobby because they can’t afford it is dumb. This isn’t Pokemon
@HalleniumGaming@SimonMitK@CriticalEDH “cEDH isn’t promised to you” “never said I’m anti-proxy” the whole reason why proxies exist in the first place is because cEDH has insane prices attached to it. Gatekeeping due to that is dumb and is a net negative for the hobby
@anFleshman@DIVIDENTSPECIL@blewglass lmfao which is not equal to weed. Its a multi-billion dollar business wherever it’s legalized. Capitalism and these degenerate potheads have only made pot more accessible and affordable for your dad. Rich keep getting richer, but your arguments are literally just hot air
“Having sex” (read: “getting laid,” “gettin’ dat poosay”) is the easiest thing in the world. I could make a dating app profile and lose my virginity by dinnertime. But very few people alive have ever actually had *sex.* They’ve performed a social ritual, sort of like hazing. They’ve slapped their damp, clammy body against another damp, clammy body, like the wriggling of a suffocating fish. Maybe, possibly, their tongue came into contact with another tongue during the process. It doesn’t even sound enjoyable or enviable. They’ve never made love. They’ve never experienced passion, or tried to melt into another human being. To be crude, for a moment, it sounds like it’s more or less the equivalent of a salaryman dipping into the bathroom and having a 30-second wank, simply so that he can more-easily concentrate on whichever set of numbers he is currently moving from one column of an excel sheet to another. It’s nothing but a physical phenomenon, removed of any telos. There is no desire to unify, to become one; or even at a baser level, to control, to own. Leave alone any thought of the fruit of passion, the creation of another life inside of the woman; perish the idea. There is no yearning, no primal and beastly need even, other than a poor simulacra, the simple desire to fulfill a base bodily instinct. It’s like eating—: and not to craft a meal, not to provide oneself art, not to turn passion itself into a physical, sensible monument, to provide unto oneself an appreciable reception of one’s own soul, but to microwave a frozen sandwich, or gulp down a cup of instant ramen, merely to stop one’s stomach from growling. We live in a world of walking stomachs; hylics, all. And most of it is nothing but glorified prostitution, anyways; even within most marriages which occur today. Piers’ Wife says that she wears the trousers in the family, so perhaps the dynamic is simply turned the other way, and Piers is like a sort of gigolo. Maybe he’s even too stupid to realise that that’s all he is. But all that he has ever provided to the world is nothing more than the vulgar commentary of one.
Senate Democrats just BLOCKED my House-passed resolution condemning socialism as a failed ideology and the antithesis of the American Dream.
America stands for FREEDOM and OPPORTUNITY. Why can’t @SenateDems agree?
@toxiccowboy1 A dude from Oklahoma telling New Yorkers they’re not remembering 9/11 hard enough. Couldn’t make a better metaphor for the ridiculous state of politics if I tried
