I agree. It reads like dead perfection of human prose. Like a simulacrum of a human mind's thoughts. It sticks from a mile away. I question a lot of its uses in general - is it enhancing our active participation in life - or is it removing us to be more of a 'witness' or 'observer'? We are devolving into spectator chimps of our lives, rather than chimps engaged and involved with the chimping

The internet has degraded in quality. Flood the zone with shit. Misinformation and disinformation is too widespread. Vetting is becoming harder and harder. I've been on the internet heavily since mid-90s when DIALix existed in Australia. It's been a slow boil. Reddit is actually foul. The group think there is really pervasive. And I swear to GOD LLM's are vomiting up consensus from that cesspool

AI slop now. Thank riddence I binned google as a search engine over a year ago. https://techcrunch.com/2026/05/19/google-search-as-you-know-it-is-over/

Porn can be addictive. There is no arguing around this.

🫪🫪🫪🫪 Hur de dur 😃

@Willy Phallicus peace, dude. Don't let this scramble the eggs. It's just an online conversation.

Just don't be rude. It's not hard.

AGI talk gone quiet - isn't it supposed to be here by now?

@James123 I don't care. Observe the forum rules. Don't use truth to justify behaving in a nasty way.

Keep those nasty thoughts to yourself. Don't make such negative character judgements toward other users.

This shit is backwards. Biology and the differences between men and women are real. Some liberals and feminists live on other planets. I have no idea how these individuals come to these sorts of conclusions without group think and borrowing concepts. There is no critical thinking.

@Willy Phallicus I don't really care about continuing a dialogue with anyone so entrenched in a frame they cannot drop it for pure conceptual understanding. I'm literally too employed for this Peace

ROFL - that tender skin though?! Fucking nightmare fuel man if I tried that on my labia I would have nothing left but tattered curtains Yep thats what I would imagine would be the challenge. Maybe any other dudes might have advice? Respect though, a purists device

I use one - the drawback is you have to be very careful regarding angle, speed & you have to do multiple passes. The cheaper cost, and less wastage, comes at the cost of speed imo - a cheap bic razor or gillette turbochad razor is essentially providing a strip of lubricant and multiple blade passes at once (depending on 2, 3 or 4 blades in one). Fuck man you use it on your face? FUCK. That's so many angles to pass over. I would slice the shit out of myself. I already have trouble not dicing up my achillies due to the angles on the lower part of the leg. I have to be much more focused, mindful and attentive with the safety razor.

@Willy Phallicus Hahaha I don't have an axe to grind I'm trying to steer the argument to point out blind spots and fallacy (pointing out hypocrisy is a fallacious argument - you wrote the words, but don't seem to be able to understand what you wrote) - but I am not going to argue a case, because I know that won't work for you - you are, as I said, too full of certainty. You cannot fill a cup that is already full. These topics tend to devolve into straight bias. I am pointing toward areas that you need to inspect. And I am intelligent enough to know that insight is the only way for someone like yourself to grasp a counter point. You should be able to see both sides of a perspective and not suffer so much cognitive bias.

@Willy Phallicus using hypocrasy as a counter argument is a fallacy. It's an invalid counter argument. Remember, I'm not arguing this topic with you. I just claim you misrepresented the claim so you could try a cheap teardown. You don't know. And this is, again, what I am pointing toward - you are way too certain. No room for anything new. I would direct you to looking into some information about openness - and the power of not knowing.

I think you misunderstand Ralston if this is your takeaway.

I tell you what is fucked - turd dog owners who let their dogs out and run their yards, while expecting delivery people to drop parcels on their doorsteps. Dog owners who let their poorly trained dogs off lead, and don't give a fuck that some people are scared of dogs. Older people who have 'my cute little harmless King Charles Cavalier' jump on them, break their skin on their legs and get infections. Or fall. Older folks are fragile as fuck. Owners who just dgaf about their dogs training because they are small. Letting the dog get away with murder. I actually find most large dog breeds are better trained in general.

https://neildegrassetyson.com/books/2026-05-take-me-to-your-leader/ What the hell? Am I so out of the loop I didn't hear about Neil Degrasse Tyson doing a complete 180 on the UFO / NHI phenomenon? Last I heard he was staunchly a denier - so much so he was continually denigrating the whole dialogue around the topic. Either someone has given him direct insider intel, OR - he's in it to ride the wave of cash surrounding news on the topic. Do we think it's going to be slop? I've personally never been a fan of Neil, or his takes.

Rolf I like to remember what @Hojo once said - never trust an old white dude guru (or some such words), white people did some bad voodoo juju in our past 🤣🤣🤣

This comment is peak stupidity. 100% gotta be trolling.

@9735557264 Can you describe for us what you mean by 'alpha male'? This will give an outline for the types of character traits, values and qualities you wish to cultivate.

If you were approaching this in good faith, I wouldn't have to explain anything to you. This isn't between me and you per se - it is you attempting to counter argue with the OP. I am just pointing out poorly presented takedown attempts. Maybe you have lots of experience having mature good faith arguments - but this statement belies what appears to be the exact opposite. False certainty - or just over-certainty, can be a pitfall. Peace

@Willy Phallicus You essentially misrepresented what was being argued so you could try to tear it down. It indicates that you weren't interested in having a good faith discussion.
