Herpes can be spread, even with condoms. Often asymptomatic, also so common/with a test that is also so prone to false positives that they don’t test for it in most panels.

PREP, PEP, and doxyPREP are great things. There should also be no stigma around STI’s - a large chunk of adults get one at some point in their lives. Trich or HPV I think the vast majority of people don’t even know.

The big thing is that everyone should be an adult and open/honest about their risks and tolerances. The more partners you have, the more likely a condom is to break or something is to go wrong. There’s a balance in all things.

This not normal.

It’s so fucked up. Chris Chan believed this shit was happening. Genuinely believes that they are talking to Jesus over discord, and that their wife is being tortured. These conversations would end with things like Chris Chan recording videos confessing to wanting to sexually abuse their mother or sending money or these people. (Magi Chan is also supposed to be Chris’s husband. This polyamorous pedophilic marriage is also the idea of these individuals.)

Transitioned, prefers she nowadays but he is okay for past events.

The iffy iffy thing is that some of the manipulative stuff and breaks from reality make the “which pronoun” debate difficult. Chris Chan is not in her right mind. There’s evidence in the comics of a group of trolls called the “Idea Guys” that were pressuring her into doing and acting in ways that were making her uncomfortable. She claims to be an inter dimensional goddess ready to merge fictional realities (the smoking gun for the “Idea Guys” is the inclusion of like Hyperspace Neptune(?) and a couple of other series Chris Chan never had interest in.)

At some point some sort of court order or adult protective service is necessary. When someone starts calling themselves a “CPU Goddess” and “Jesus Christ Chan Sonichu Prime” it’s less “kick the autistic” and more “wow the internet bullied a kind of shitty guy into insanity.”

See - your first paragraph I think betrays a problem with the American health care system - that “parents rights” extends to denying care. Christian Scientist kids should not be left to painfully die of preventable disease, and parents of developmentally delayed children who do not get them appropriate intervention should probably face some sort of child welfare investigation and consequences (in a post RFK/return to sanity world where the interventions are ethical and not shit like ABA).

The US “troubled teen” industry is another symptom of this rot.

The thrust of your car engine is a very stoppable force.

Concrete walls are resilient, but can be moved.

What will happen is that the kinetic energy from the collision will crumple the front part of your car, as the concrete wall applies an equal and opposite force. Ideally, the fact that some of the energy is “used” in deforming your car (and subsequently escapes as heat) decreases the amount of kinetic energy that is used to deform you.

House centipedes are entirely harmless. I would be happy and honored to see one skittering around in my home. They eat harmful things.

Yeah, but they were pretty different. What we imagine today is pretty influenced by Pulp Fiction.

Boo-boo, I’m a trans man. Telling me that being trans is homophobic is not the move.

Radicalized theories of transgender identity also now serve to promote the idea that gender and sexuality are not only different, but unconnected. In one narrow sense, there is some basis to this: All men are not sexually attracted to women, and vice versa—which is why separating desire from gender is important. But it’s one thing to say that your gender doesn’t predict who you will be sexually attracted to (which is true), and quite another to say that gender has absolutely nothing to do with sexuality, which (as I will illustrate by way of autobiography later in this essay) is false.

Holy shit, they gave this dumbass a PhD?

Amazing that your same source (different author) has an article praising John Money. The guy who made David Reimer pretend to have sex with his brother to convince him that he was a girl. That’s fascinating - usually “TERFs” like to bring up Money to condemn “the trans movement.”

You’re right in that individual examples prove nothing, but the evidence suggests something larger at play.

I’ve provided examples of individual and institutional homophobia - you’ve failed to even suggest evidence of the former. I would not deny that individual “left wingers” (idk if you distinguish between leftists and liberals in the same way I do) that are homophobic - but I don’t think I’ve seen any evidence that progressive ideologies are institutionally homophobic. Feel free to provide some evidence though!

Which is why you provided examples. I wonder if there is an explicit historical difference in party platforms.

Was is it Clinton who ignored the AIDS epidemic until it became a crisis and told a supposed friend to fuck off when they were dying?

Isn’t this movie consider like the progenitor of furries? Like yeah, anthropomorphic animals have always been a thing but there’s something about this movie that made it an obsessive thing?

Sorta like how Pulp Fiction invented “gimps”….

A “drip drip” is a usual consequence of hot sweaty mansex.

Not based on any truth

Yes - there is a lot that has been written about the homoeroticism of fascist movements. For years, it’s been a meme that “traps aren’t gay.” Nick Fuentes has sex with submissive puppy boys or something.

Fascism is libidinal. The Nazis who tortured gay men in concentration camps were also very eager to have sex with them. It goes back to Roman or even Bronze Age sexual mores, where sex is an act of aggression and as long as the “superior” is in the penetrative role, then it is okay.

They were told they were being given showers, and there were fake showerheads installed to continue the ruse. There were no pipes connected to the showers, the Nazis dropped canisters down chutes. The shower contrivance makes sense as a way to get them to strip “willingly” to get at any last valuables hidden in their clothes without having to bother with the bodies.

I think the popular imagination goes to that scene in Schindlers List - the very tense scene where the Schindlerjuden get shipped to Auschwitz and we don’t know if they’re going to be killed or not.

This is something we have to be careful when talking about - because all of those complicated discrepancies between memory and rumor are the muck Holocaust deniers like to throw everywhere. I found an online “uncensored Holocaust encyclopedia” on the first page of DuckDuckGo before I found this link.
