This really shows how it should be a safe legal choice for everyone, including those who think it wrong. Since you can think its wrong and still need it. Even if its a choice you regret later you should be able to make that choice. Everyone should read this at least once

There's statistics about voting rates amongst single, married and divorced women in the USA. Married women are the most conservative mostly due to age skew) followed by the other two. I can't remember if single or divorced leans more liberal but there's a big gap

I love RPG and love that Kickstarter exists to make new ones. I do hate the amount of time between the idea and hype and getting a copy. I'll wait to get this in a couple of years when it's finished and I can buy it

What a job to research Butt Stuff

[–] dumples@midwest.social 3 points 6 days ago

Yeah. There are tons of gross examples out there.

Only DND and AI combination I want is a massive random table. I want thousands of good human made ideas that I can query for a random selection using tags. This is not what is going to be made.

Using current AI for DND ideas gives the worse most cliche and generic responses that bore me to tears.

Because your enemy is whatever you want it to be, and because your values are whatever you want them to be, you alone get to decide when you’ve won. You can declare victory at any time, for any reason. This conveniently fits your insecurity-based need to feel like a winner.

I feel this so much with the definition of "woke" it means nothing and everything at the same time. Just a general vibe of something they hate. Similar to socialism.

Exactly. It depends on the context of the situation.

I think one of the great things about Pride events and parades now is the celebration of human sexuality by everyone at it. Everyone is looking their best and celebrating that. Whether they are queer or not.

This is classic sex negativity through the Madonna-Whore Complex where women are either "pure" virgin mothers or dirty whores. This is an old problem that still lingers. I remember my formative years in the Britney Spear, Man show raunchy period. I did enjoy portions of it at the time as a straight young man but even then I felt exploitative and forced. In hindsight it was really messed up for both men and women and especially women,

The right can't claim any credit for the current more sex and body positive post #metoo world. People should be allowed to be both objectified if they want to be or not if they don't want to be. This is true for everyone and can change day to day. The current climate is showing both a kinder objectification of women when they choose to be as well as objectification of men. As a men is actually refreshing and satisfying to see men treated like objects in media. Its good to see a balance in both sexes. That was never part of the rights agenda where men are only held as success objects.

We want a future where both men and women can be valued for their mind, body and souls. We want sexy outfits in videogames for men and women (and everything in between). We want men and women CEOs, scientists and leaders who are valued for their mind. This is not the future the right wants and a sexy women isn't the antithesis of this. Sydney Sweeney and Margot Robbie being attractive and great actresses is part of this future. The same way that Chris Pine and Idris Elba can be sex symbols and great actors even in the same film. Ignore the rights stealing of something that had no hand in. Reject sex negativity
