Colored hair + tattoos always vote the most radically left party available 😭👍 God help us.

It's very rare for a tattoo to be aesthetic and complimentary of the body, but it does exist and can be sexy. But most who get tattoos don't have the discipline to stick to the degree of minimalism that it takes to pull off a an aesthetically complimentary tattoo. Aesthetically complimentary tattoos fit the specific area of the body where they are placed and nowhere else and their effect is easily ruined by adding more tattos. Examples are Yakuza tattoos, a simple womb tattoo or a trampstamp. Tribal work. Simple linework. I have myself an aesthetically complimentary tattoo and it makes it difficult to get any more without ruining the effect. Less is more with these kind of tattoos. Getting tattoed is fun, cathartic and relaxing though. Especially if your into the subculture. A lot of people reached a point where they are getting tattooed for the sake of it. That's how you end up with full bodies. Or they let their buddies practice on them, and it's a bonding thing. There's no aesthetic plan there. The human equivilant of a communal graffiti wall. And yes, heavily tattoed people always have issues. From daddy/mommy issues, to bpd, to drugs. Source: tattoo artist parents.

Reddit psychos will not teach you anything about what normal people think.

See that god-awakening? You can go there.

It's so crass when it's just laid out like to that. So gross. And honestly, I think everyone kind of suspected that, but never quiet made the connection due to a lack of exposure to the subject matter. It's interesting how when you just lay it out how it is, your confronted with the question if you could respect yourself exploiting people like that. Probably a big reason why exploitation is rarely matter of factly but always clad in stories of why it's good. I think most people don't like themselves when they are conscious of their selfish behavior. You have to be deceived by your own exploitation for the exploitation to deceive others as well.

For online users, most AI implementation is kind of pushed unto you in a less than organic manner. Google is a prime example, but you also have plenty of apps that add AI functionality and put in pop-ups asking you want to use AI (like Adobe). It's pretty annoying to be pushed things you don't want to use and it clutters the user experience. You really get the sense that it less for you as a user and more for the companies to train their AIs and make back their investments. Like, you can't directly disable AI when searching on Google, which I think a substantial portion of internet users would prefer if they could. Google also further clutters search by prioritizing Reddit a lot since they use Reddit to train their AIs, which is shit because Reddit is shit. The absolute state of Google right now when you search something is you get AI followed by Reddit...

But Leo, stop ruining the chic Hindu Indian Instagram aesthetic in my head, Leo 😭😭😭
-
Yes.

How do they do justice in the favelas? If for example someone robs or kills somebody?
-
Your probably right most of the time. I'd hate to be in your shoes when your wrong.

The sovereign power not being in the hands of police/government sounds problematic to an existential degree to me. What I enjoy, yes is a privilege, but also the bare minimum in my opinion. There is no accountability or recourse in a system run by thugs. If a member of the family decided to rape your mother there would be nothing you could do about it.
-
No, it's a slum. By definition, if a crime family runs the scene it's not a safe area. Where I'm from it was so safe that you didn't ever think about it. It wasn't uncommon to leave one's door unlocked at night.
-
That sounds like an oxymoron.

I'd like to get Instagram again to stay connected with friends and family, and I heard its good for dating, but there,'s so much distractive trash on these apps. Same with Snapchat. Stories, reels and random bullshit I don't want. They also take up so much data on my phone, like a gb+.
-
@Carl-Richard your question begging and ignoring the substance of my arguments. I've made my case.
-
Ragebaited by bullshit. It's not even about porn itself for me.
-
It's pseudo scientific. Religion and morality are the biggest predictor of issues with porn and masturbation. You convey you don't know but make a strong statement why at the same time. Who in the world is lobbying for porn? Anti-porn advocates have no rigor, just like how they can't stop watching porn. It's essentially propaganda most of the time.
-
Bro, these people are terrible. So much insecurity, victim mindset and lack of communication. Imagine secretly tracking your spouses phone...

How much about it you judge as bad and something to feel guilty about. How value ladden judging something as an "addiction" is. That's why medically there are very strict standards for something to be considered an addiction to avoid bias. They way most anti-porn advocates use the term is to mask (though maybe not deliberately) their religiosity. And surprise surprise, the biggest predictor of having a "porn addiction" is religiosity. Most of this anti-porn stuff is conformist nonsene. Also, illustrates how religion conditions people to have low self-esteem by setting impossible standards. There's nothing unnatural with the inclination to jerk off to porn, which is why culturally religious dudes are so vocally against. They feel guilt but can't help themselves, so they externalize the issue.

I thought you where gooning Red Dead. Forgot how long ago that was lol.
-
For one, it's masking how value ladden judgement of what constitutes "porn addiction" usually is. How much guilt plays a part.
-
When talking about excessive porn use, and excessive media use in general, people tend to ignore the historical and socialogical trends that brought us here in the first place. Like the untethering of social bonds, the difficulty of getting a job, work itself lacking dignity in the modern age, lack of meaningful aspirations (and by extension too much free time), etc. Maybe porn is just the friends we didn't make along the way.
-
Which is why it's unserious. It's not true. "Addiction" is easily used to sneak in all sorts of assumptions. It's not just semantics it's epistemological.
