I did not imply that at all. I said “ if you’ve gone a quarter century without intimacy and you desire it.” So, if 25 years pass and they desire, but are unable to obtain, a sexual encounter, they should simply hire someone rather than kill themselves, as the poster said they were considering.
I’m honestly at a loss for how you interpreted that as me saying they were looking for action as a child.
This person isn’t a child, they’re 24.
Why not just hire somebody? Like, I get that it isn’t ideal, but if you’ve gone a quarter century without intimacy and you desire it, it can be obtained with a little cash and a week of research.
Bro…I’m glad you’re happy. If you do get the chance for a kiss though, it’s worth trying it out. They feel nice.
I am a man, and I’m here to ‘splain.
Extra effort was put into all of the images of the Thoth tarot. It was, by far, the biggest advancement in tarot since the Rider Waite designs. Every square inch and chosen color is very deliberate, and there are several books that dissect each image for its meaning.
When it was reprinted in the 70’s, James Wasserman of the OTO worked overtime to make sure that the original colors were accurately preserved so that none of the meaning would be lost. The Thoth tarot is a labor of love that has spanned generations.
I try to avoid them as much as possible, usually.
I’m not saying he’s unusual for a 13 year old, just that writing articles about him like he’s a progressive silver bullet seems to be off the mark.
In my opinion, part of that attitude is a valid criticism. Republicans are good at constructing messages that appeal to the emotional and instinctual parts of the brain. A lot of democrats have been stuck in a pattern of indignation and admonishing, which is what I detect in this kids videos.
If you look at the last two promising progressive campaigns, they were ones that also figured out how to appeal to emotionality. Obama overcame a major establishment competitor with Hope, Change, and pop art. Bernie did better than any leftist has ever done by focusing on a battle against the elites that must be waged before it is too late.
It seems like the rallying cry is more effective for swing voters and nonvoters than intellectual outrage is.
I agree with most of his points, but there is something about his delivery that I find a little obnoxious. I’m not sure he is going to effectively change people’s minds as much as he just appeals to the intellectual liberal crowd.
When you find out, let us know.
I’ve totally lost track of what this post is about because I’m just looking at the 8000 mod removed comments by SlackShaolin.
