Unfortunately for everyone who has ever suggested a clever solution King Solomon's cutting a baby in half thing, the baby is a metaphor. Solomon did not actually suggest bisecting a human infant.

like idk how to break this to you but most of the time straight men are homophobic and misogynistic because they hate gay people and women, not because they're secretly gay

i need pepple to understand that in the first place leather has always been made from the byproducts of butchering animals for meat, otherwise the skin is just tossed and unused. there were some companies farming for leather for a while, particuarly alligator leather, but those were not the norm. peta did so much harm in their campaigns against leather as a concept (its not unethical. yoi get the skin when an animal dies. thats why most leather clothes in the usa are cow leather, bc thats the biggest meat animal here) that its almost impossible to buy anything "leather" that isnt made of plastic that it so fragile and shitty that the very Thread Holding It Together rips the fibers apart. it will last for maybe a year two if youre lucky, and wont biodegrade and was made out of something that isnt naturally occurring in the first place and is one of the biggest causes of pollution globally

I have mixed feelings about David Hogg being one of the DNC Vice Chairs.

Like, I get that he probably appeals to the Democratic base and establishment because he's a fairly photogenic young man who's been a gun control activist since filming the reaction to the Parkland shooting. It probably also feels like poking the eyes of right-wing douchebags who called him a "crisis actor." But also it kinda reflects the Democrats' inability to stop sticking forks in electrical sockets.

Honestly one of the weirdest things about centrist Democrats is "I will throw any minority under the bus to be non-threatening to Republicans, but I will vote for all the gun control you've got." This has never worked. There are just as many uncommitted centrists who love shooting guns as there are ones that believe in more gun control. I don't think they realize how vanishingly small their overall target demographic of "reasonable suburban Republicans who don't like guns" really is.

Take Beto O'Rourke, for example. This guy was the DNC Chosen One, the Man Who Would Make Texas a Swing State. O'Rourke has since spent $200 million in four years without winning any elections, because he thinks saying "fuck" and "hell" makes him sound cool as he sticks his dick in the blender that is proposing gun control in Texas. $200 million that could've been spent on any number of local Texan elections that would've actually been really helped bring change to Texas, burnt at the altar of "cool guys say 'fuck,' right?"

I find the Democratic need to tilt at the gun control windmill to be especially foolish in a time when, generally speaking, the fascists seizing power are backed by the part of the population that has the most guns. And personally, I find it obnoxious as Washington state's Democrat-led government is busy inventing new forms of gun control to throw at us, as if the 2023 assault weapons ban wasn't onerous enough.

On the other hand, David Hogg seems to have shaken things up and clashed with DNC leadership re: primarying useless old bastards with younger, progressive candidates. So I dunno. Maybe it's fine, but good Lord I wish the Dems would just fuck off when it comes to guns.

Like how the hell are you gonna be serious about opposing ICE doing Gestapo shit without getting your ass behind the 2nd Amendment?

If I recall correctly, Pythagoras had a whole cult who believed him to be the son of Apollo.

Pythagoras mastered instant transmission? Like the shapes guy?

Yes, according to several people pretending to be Socrates.

MMORPGs are the only type of game where I start hooting and hollering when the performance goes to shit.

During world boss fights in Guild Wars 2, my partner and I spend half our time laughing and announcing our shitty frame rates (which often drop from a stable 60 in open world to sub-20 during popular bosses and events).
