Exactly!!! Porn exists and is easily accessible to anyone that looks. I watch TV and movies for story and charcters, not softcore. It's just tacky and uncomfortable to make it part of an otherwise serious drama. Yes humans have sex and that's nothing to be ashamed of nor hidden, but we don't need tits and titillation to show these two characters are intimate.

True Incognito mode is a myth, it only stops keeping a history in the tab of that browser. Everytime you use a browser to go to any site ever, the browser logs you went there. So does your ISP and the site your connecting to. No matter which mode or browser you use, if you go to Google, then Google knows you went there and logs your searches.

The closest you can come to browsing the web anonymously would be with a mix of dedicated privacy OS like Tails and either a VPN or Tor as a middile man, but that assumes those proxys are not corrupted. Free VPNs make money by selling your "secret browsing" habits.

The internet is nothing more than wires, if you connect your wire to someone elses, every intermediatary knows.

Laura Loomer is a cheesy superhero name.

Millenal here, but yeah there are too many wildly unnecessary sex scenes in a lot of mediaLike, if it's an earned thing as part of a romance movie? Sure. But if there are bouncing titties I the first 30 minutes I'm just annoyed and uncomfortable. Looking at you HBO, a conversation between two charcters isn't helped by them banging while talking.

Plz stahp.

But, I'm also ace too.... so maybe I'm biased 😂

Selling out your wife to advance your career is small town family values.

Are any of these games worth caring about?

The reality is that trans people wait YEARS on a list trying to get surgery. And that's after receiving referrals from two separate psychiatrists. The fact that conservatives think that this happens overnight behind parents backs is a deluded cruel joke.

So I don't have anything to say about Masterson other than he's a monster. But to share a related personal anctodote.

It's very possible the veil was lifted, so to speak, at that trial.

A few years ago I started becoming more active with a friend I had grown distant with. She introduced me to her new circle of friends which included a guy named Barry. Who was awaiting trial for "something that was blown out of proportion", this was an ongoing very long process since covid pushed his court date back like two years in total. So I met him a few times and heard him describe the case. But I was always skeptical of his story, how do you just wake up in a bush with a gun to a police dog with zero recollection of the night before?

But I let it slide in the moment because I was in a pretty vulnerable lonely place after a bad breakup, however I made DAMN sure to actually attend his trial. The only one of the friend group who did, and he was very thankful and called me a good friend. But I really just wanted to hear the story from the defense.

Barry didn't mention the gun shots he fired as his ex girlfriend or the camera footage showing him stumbling around with a gun. He didn't mention that he was shooting outside when his home is next to a school and it caused the school to close, also didn't mention the threats he made. The lawyer for Barry couldn't make much of a defense for him, just that he was in AA and doesn't drink anymore.

Barry went to jail. And I made absolutely sure that everyone heard abiut what I learned. But the tradgey was that most people just thought I had a personal grudge against him. That I didn't know how crazy his ex GF was and that she totally (probably) provoked him.

Long story short, it's easy to talk around the truth to you friends, who of course will take your side. Going to a trial and hearing the evidence yourself can be a very eye opening experience.

And the other is a celebrity.

This is just a contrarian being willfully obtuse.

Well to be fair, Hasbro is just a small startup. Of course they need AI to level the playing field with the other mega conglomerate in the board game space.

Beat ya to it.

Yup. That's super gross. I totally agree.

But, probably not for the same reason.
