Came to the comments just for this, was not disappointed

Ooooh that’s an excellent word - TIL, thanks!

Is it ableist to not define AI art as art, when handicapped people can’t perform the same actions?

Please reconsider this like of argument in the future, it just comes across as cynical using the disabled for arguments sake. There are plenty of blind/deaf/handicapped/motor impaired/etc people making art of various forms. Deaf musicians. Blind painters. Non-verbal writers.

What makes art, “art” is the human creativity of original thought and intrinsic meaning, even if it is derivative. A jazz beat sampled on a rap track is art because it has social/familial meaning - beat makers often unwittingly share their childhood memories listening to their parent’s music at home. A painter may be influenced by their surreal visions, or the war and horrors they witnessed.

If you dare to unpack “the situation” you might understand more of why women ‘give it up’ or just lay there under societal/individual pressure to be sexually available. And yes, that’s an uncomfortable conversation but likely not in the way you’re imagining

I can’t handle the fact that sex is complex and it’s ok to need to work on it and figure out what works for both partners

There’s working on it, and trying to flex on Twitter. After-care is working on it. Discussing go/no-gos or dominance roles is working on it. Asking why she’s not invested is working on it.

“You can’t handle me” is a dismissal I have seen used on the ’alphas’ who won’t take a hint that she’s not interested

Edit: Man the downvotes, y’all really are telling on yourselves

Imagine telling on yourself like this lmao

I am so bad at pleasuring my partner that I have only experienced women tolerating me via starfishing

I see no reason to question why these women aren’t more invested in sex with me; clearly she is a lazy pillow princess and not me who is the problem

Also super gross how we’ve normalized/coerced women into “lying back and taking it” instead of asking why shes not active and engaged

The screwdriver trick is mid imo - you run a major risk of just shearing the filter body wall and now your problem is a leaky oil filter that’s much harder to grasp with other hand tools. Go buy a strap wrench that you can use to install and remove.

Or for the very stubborn filters, these kind of tools are very much a one trick pony that only takes the filter off, but it’s a good trick - it has worked every single time for me.

An even darker joke was missed here by the creator instead of the analog > digital gag

I’m no lawyer, but the legal system calls this “reasonable doubt” and if you are on a jury, you are duty bound to do your best to judge the case on the facts, not vibes.

And the fact is, a grainy photo of two people who may have somewhat similar clothing is not proof, nor mens rea required for a possible murder conviction - who are we to claim to understand the mind of this individual?

The state has a high bar to clear that this anonymous shopper, is the same person they claim, the photo was taken on the same day, that this photo isn’t a forgery/deepfake, that only one set of that particular clothing was ever sold- otherwise it’s hearsay and conjecture.
