Wait fuck you’re right that’s infuriating and I fucking hope they bring it back now that no one cares about diseases anymore

Just another thing Covid took from us

Oh, manmade horrors beyond my comprehension, cool

What Israeli media is willing to write in English and in Hebrew are very different things. They go waaaaay more mask off in Hebrew, the Hebrew publications would make a Klansman nauseous

Here’s a hot take: Every death in any sort of detention center is homicide, and has someone who can and should be blamed and have charges filed against them. Every single one. If you can’t find someone directly responsible, the warden is responsible.

If someone dies of a heart attack in prison at age 80, why did you still have a sick 80 year old in the prison? Who made that decision? The warden? The parole board? They killed that man.

If someone slips and falls down the stairs and cracks their head, who designed the staircase? Who’s in charge of maintenance? Why weren’t there covers to block sharp corners? Why was the floor made of concrete that can kill you instantly instead of carpet? Whoever made those choices killed that man, finding those people might be hard though so I’d just shift the blame to the warden.

Someone dying of any medical condition in prison is by definition murder by medical neglect. Like, even in the most generous case, like let’s say Jeffrey Dahmer lived to 90 and was dying of cancer, by the time they’re close to death they should be moved to hospice care, a hospital, or house arrest, because what is someone who’s weeks away from dying of cancer going to do to anyone?

Obviously if a guard beats someone to death that’s the guard who should be charged. But let’s say someone’s stabbed by a fellow inmate? That’s the warden’s fault again. Why did they have something to do a stabbing with, and more importantly why did they feel the need to stab someone? If you’re taking care of your prisoners needs properly they won’t be stabbing each other.

I cannot think of a death inside a prison or other type of detention facility that should not be prosecuted as murder. Maybe a sudden brain aneurism? Maybe?

Oh so they decided to listen to literally everyone telling them that was a stupid choice? And that everyone is still calling it HBO and searching for HBO and they were ruining their own search optimization?

i have to disagree with the "porn addiction is not real" statement

You disagree with experts on the topic then. “Porn addiction is not real” is the opinion of the WHO and APA among many other groups. This is the academic consensus.

As a male i've had to endure porn talks throughout my life, from my high school circle, to my college circle, to my coworker circle, to catching my uncles watching porn, to every single random countryside worker. Literally every conversation with men ends up about porn or homophobia.

People talking about porn is not evidence of addiction, nor is being caught watching porn. Would you say people are addicted to Star Wars because every conversation lately ends up about Andor? The fact that people are uncomfortable talking about porn is itself evidence of us living in a puritanical culture.

Also as a generally male-presenting non-binary person this is not my experience talking to men, porn really does not come up that often at all.

i had to watch porn as "research" just in case i had to talk about it in a drinking game or something, because "name porn genres" is something that always comes up in drinking games

Again I don’t see how this is evidence of anything. “I had to experience a thing people talk about during drinking games in order to answer those questions” yeah? I had to watch Friends because it comes up during bar trivia all the time. That is not evidence of widespread Friends addiction.

I do not think there is a person on this earth I hate more than Joseph Robinette Biden, absolute hitlerite demon

Because otherwise thousands of people freeze to death

"Russia has found ways to circumvent the blockage imposed by Europe and the United States

No man, people found ways to circumvent that blockage because your countries need Russian oil or your population will freeze to death.

Cutting off my nose to spite the convenience store owner who recommended a box of tissues

Technically yes, but it’s a very niche kink that not that many people actually engage in. Like imagine if vore was blown up in media until everyone was worried about the vore epidemic. Thats about the same level.
