Am doctor, can confirm: you should not be reproducing.

This is only scratching the surface of the weirdness of semen retention advocates. Throwback to the Canadian political candidate who advocated for this a few years ago:

"Every time you're tempted to ejaculate, every time you're tempted to go watch porn... You are essentially in the fight for your life. You're fighting for your very lifeforce. Nature's forgiving, and because of nature's merciful nature, we've taken advantage of that nature and now we're depleting," argues Nakula. "Right now the world needs men. Men with full balls," said the PPC candidate in a YouTube video.

“Breathe deeply into your balls," he wrote on Instagram. "Imagine your testicles expanding like lungs. When you exhale, imagine your testicles deflating like your lungs would". “Most men never breathe into their balls consciously,” he added.

Learning to read was a mistake

Experts are divided between those who think we never should have left the trees, and those who think we never should have left the oceans.

As an armchair scientist myself, I think we screwed up leaving the singularity of the big bang. Inflation and baryogenesis were a mistake.

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

Why half of the best quotes on the internet are either Adams or Pratchett's ?

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

Pretty positive thats Adams.

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

I think the mistake was in teaching these particular people to write

[-] P1k1e@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Naw man, this is great!!!

[-] shittydwarf@piefed.social 22 points 2 months ago

Well in his defence, most men do never breathe into their balls consciously..

[-] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

that's why blowjobs are so important

[-] Soup@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Of course he was PPC lol

Some people have a very strong opinion that wanking is bad, probably a sin too. They'll make up whatever they need to, especially now as they need to fight the advice that regular ejaculations protect against prostate cancer

Semen gets internally recycled to keep it fresh.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 46 points 2 months ago

Yep, and if you don't use them the body will break down the sperm and absorb it. So op is basically advocating young men to absorb fat loads into their bodies.

[-] some_kind_of_guy@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

The male body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down

[-] guy@piefed.social 11 points 2 months ago

Judging by the state of the world, a little too recycled these last decades

The one thing they could have made Shepard read that would make him invite the reapers invasion.

Pee is stored in the ballz

Looks like we found Elon Musk's alt

[-] Sibshops@lemmy.myserv.one 16 points 2 months ago

As one of of the wasted semen, I can confirm.

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

This is clearly wrong. It only takes 36 days, since the boy and girl nut alternate their maturity cycles.

[-] answersplease77@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

does his balls have secondary storage where sperm is stored seperately for 72 days until it's mature? or does he have to wait 72 days without nutting for his sperm to become mature? how does his body not ejaculate during wet dreams for 72 days? at what age would your body stop having wet dreams and not ejaculate for 72 days?

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 11 points 2 months ago

It's called a sperm cellar and it's classy.

[-] caradenada@feddit.cl 5 points 2 months ago

That's why you have two balls, duh.

[-] quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 2 months ago

Wholey shit! I had no idea.

[-] vrek@programming.dev 12 points 2 months ago

Wholey shit only occurs if you do anal

Coolidge Effect enjoyers stay winning

[-] Lowleekun@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago

Op does only play with the immature.
