I already gave the “obvious right answer”:

Edit: I should add that it’s still fucking creepy and weird when an older man does this. Just, not pedophilia, and not by default (statutory) rape in most places. Unlike what the people in this thread seem to think.

There’s not an answer I can give that is going to satisfy you, so what’s the point in me giving you one?

Not even a crime in most states: https://www.jagranjosh.com/general-knowledge/age-of-consent-in-each-us-state-1701408847-1

(This is coming from an Aussie where 16 is the AoC in all states. We have exceptions that make it 18 if the other party has a duty of care tho)

It’s almost like we shouldn’t water down such serious terms by lumping everything in with it.

The abrahamic god preaches tolerance of all walks of life. One passage of the bible gets misinterpreted to preach intolerance and hate. You are literally being what the OP is describing right now.

…then progressive states can vote to leave the US.

No they can’t? There is no mechanism for a state to unilaterally secede from the United States. That is literally one of the main causes of the American Civil War? This isn’t me trying to ignore the slavery issue, it’s still the root cause. However, seceding from the union is what directly caused the war itself.

Mikrotik make good hardware, what are you on about?

I know we’re talking about Trump here but this kind of ends up stigmatising all people that need to wear nappies. Myself, a disabled trans femme, included.

Jesus christ I must have missed this insane take amongst all the other crazy fucking shit he’s done lately.

I don’t even know where to begin with this comment, it’s just so objectively moronic.

At least in Australia, Bundaberg Ginger Beer is brewed traditionally still. Tastes way better than artificial carbonation. Also works better for tummy woes.

Please, enlighten me then, what did you mean by your initial comment?

Kid? I’m willing to bet I’m older than you.

1. I’m so glad they weren’t “kamikaze” dogs.
2. I very much expected that story to end with the dogs targeting Soviet tanks.

None of those companies are suggesting 20 years. They’re suggesting much less than 10, and selling investors on that promise.

Actually, we do already know that we’re close to a theoretical limit of increasing computing power as we currently know it. The transistor can’t really get that much smaller, before it stops working.

Also, if you’re talking about the article as linked, that is a mere introduction to a much longer paper.

Rich coming from someone who says we should, just, continue burning fossil fuels because it’s been hard to stop. If you want a serious discussion, offer serious solutions.

So what you’re saying is that it is indeed time to move on to eating the rich?

That wasn’t just larger subs. They changed the rules for requesting a takeover of a sub, and there are hundreds of subs it affected. There are even cases of it being really dangerous, there’s a shroom hunting sub that is poorly moderated and has had life-threatening advice left up.

To move it to Feb 29th you’d have either a 9-month shorter term, or a 3 years and 3 months longer one.

Had an argument with a teacher in primary school that a piece of paper itself is a 3D object, whilst the drawings on it are 2D. I pointed to a ream of paper across the room and enquired how it could be that thick if the pieces were 2D. She gave me lunchtime detention.

Well yes, obviously. The issue with today is that the incumbency of the system makes it hard to change
