“Spider, Spiders, Trump” was one of the least successful children’s books of all time.

Billionaires and hectomillionaire shareholders are pretty much the same thing when it comes to enshittification.

It might not be racist from the top down like the husk formerly known as Twitter is now, but it’ll enshittify and be racist from the bottom up nonetheless.

BlueSky might not be racist YET, but it will be when all of the establishment media migrate there and the dumb masses follow.

Besides, it’ll be enshittificated sooner or later like all corporations with shareholders.

You can be both. I know I am.

A 13 October letter addressed to then-Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer from their US counterparts said Israel must allow 350 aid trucks a day into Gaza over the next 30 days. Most aid organisations estimate that around 700 trucks a day are needed to meet everyday needs.

In the second half of October, the World Food Programme said just 58 trucks a day were being allowed into Gaza

It’s beyond tragicomedy and into dystopia. That anyone believes a word the complicit US government says about the fascist apartheid regime at this point is proof positive that political gaslighting is much more effective than most people believe.

since then, Israeli forces have sealed off northern Gaza and announced on the day of the US election, on 5 November, that its former residents would not return to their homes.

To the surprise of no honest and observant person paying attention. And with no consequences now or ever.

I fucking hate how corrupt and fundamentally dishonest the motherfuckers who were the LEAST evil choice in the election they spectacularly bungled are 🤬

Restating the original point as a rebuttal to a comment agreeing with it is an interesting choice 🤔

Tasteless bread with salty meat pellets is my favorite dish!

🎵 If you wanna know if he loves your gin, it’s in his grin (that’s where it’s in) 🎵

…maybe? 🤷

Laughing at someone is hostile

As I made clear in another comment, that part was a joke. As in I didn’t mean it. I don’t endorse body shaming, even if someone’s a selfish lover lol

Parting ways amicably is much better.

Yeah, obviously.

I also think that men should not be pressed to do things they don’t want to do in bed

Nobody’s suggesting that. Can we do this without the strawmen, please?

Also, not every woman enjoys the same methods, so teaching a man something might not work for his next partner.

Sure, but some things work for more than one person. Such as being open to suggestions of how to improve. Which needs to be a two-way street and voluntary, of course.

People have different tastes in sexual stuff.

You don’t say?

It’s necessary to communicate and be prepared that there can be different preferences

Of course. That’s what I’m advocating for.

It’s ok if someone doesn’t want to do some stuff in bed.

Again, I never said to force anyone to do anything. I meant something along the lines of “X isn’t really working for me, could you try Y?” or “I really like X, is that something you’re into?”, NOT “do X or get out!”

I’d argue that people are not obligated to learn

I mean technically being selfish isn’t illegal… Still better for everyone if they aren’t, though 🤷

If they don’t want to learn what you need to be happy with them, leave them.

Except for the fact that the next one along is gonna get bad sex too. A lover is like a public park: when you’re done using it, the polite thing is to leave it as good or better than when you arrived.

Don’t push them to do something they don’t want to do.

Unlike the OP, I’m advocating for constructive criticism and pointers. That’s not pushing. That’s nudging at most.

There’s no reason to be hostile about it.

If you think giving helpful advice on how you can better please someone in bed, in stead of pretending that they’re already a champion, is hostile behavior, that’s a YOU problem…

Yeah, there was a distinct danger of being too wholesome and helpful for a shitpost community for sure! 😄

I quit drinking myself 5 years ago as of last month, but since I have some good nonalcoholic beer right here, I’ll drink to all of that! 🍻

Freudian slip? But hey if that’s what you’re into then good for you 😉

Actually a happy autocomplete accident, but yeah, gonna leave it as is because you made it fun 😄

Otherwise? Yeah, come on, don’t settle for shit sex, if you can teach your partner to be better then why not? Don’t be too afraid to say something.

With you in principle and updooted you, but:

That one was A) a joke and B) a joke about shaming those unwilling to learn for not being willing to learn. Not about shaming them into being better in any way. What do you think I am, a Catholic parent?

I bet that used to be possible until they got a lot of complaints 😁

Or rather: don’t fake orgasms, make sure he knows if there’s something he can do better.

Constrictive criticism and pointers is how we get better, especially at doing the things YOU specifically like.

If he can’t roll with that, though, kick his ass to the curb. Maybe point and laugh at his weird penis first 😛

I use and recommend HeliBoard. It’s foss, it’s customizable, it’s privacy conscious and, other than weird ideas about capitalization sometimes, it’s working flawlessly in two languages simultaneously for me ❤️

What’s taters, precious?
