It is central to most major religions the need to control the sex lives of their followers.
The Bible doesn’t say that masturbation is a sin, but since Christianity is a religion, they cannot permit their followers to control their own sex lives.
As a result, most sexual expression is considered a sin, and they will use any excuses or lies possible to make sure it stays that way.
Pretty sure she’s going to have that ego, regardless because she’s a cat.
You know, it’s kind of refreshing to think that somebody tried to think of the most horrific sexual perversion imaginable, and could only come up with Waluigi hentai.
One other way of saying “melt that horse” is “cook that horse.”
I forget the exact recipe for hide glue, but I think it mostly is a process that involves soaking and heating hide with lime (not the fruit). Also materials that can be used in the production of leather.
Anyways, if you cook enough horse and you make enough horse leather in an area with lime, and you’re observant enough, hide glue is sort of an inevitable discovery.
This is so outrageous that I find it hard to believe. The cost of the entire US Forest Service must be minuscule, especially if you compare it to cost of waging unnecessary, illegal, and unethical wars all over the planet.
This a recent favorite bit about Epstein, that jokes about normalizing knowing Epstein. It’s from legendary comedy writer Jim Downey when he was on Conan O’Brien’s podcast.
I put it here because it kind of tangentially makes a similar point as the main post. A somewhat normal person has no need to explain that they didn’t know Epstein. It’s ridiculous on its face. In fact, a normal person would have to go a long way to explain how they hell they knew him.
But it seems like we can assume that everybody rich and famous, and especially rich, went to his island and committed sex crimes.
How does a Slovenian model meet an American billionaire?
If you listen to the stories of the Epstein victims, it’s the same thing over and over again. Young model gets modeling offer. She ends up being pressured into sexual situations with wealthy men.
Trump was best friends with Epstein. It’s natural to think he met Melania when she was trafficked. If she wants to actually clear this up, she should go testify under oath to the committees that are investigating the Epstein files.
That’s pretty much what people said would happen back then.
There was an anime this year that had a mermaid character who refused to eat fish because she is half fish.
And all of the other characters just acted like that made total sense.
A lot of owls will prey on other birds.
It wouldn’t be surprising if a person who was drinking too little water was also getting too little sleep and too little exercise, so they could have multiple sources for the same symptoms.
It’s been my personal experience that sexual attraction is a separate thing from acting on it. Like, I can find my friend’s wife attractive, yet somehow I don’t assault her or pressure her to have sex with me. Even if I found myself in a situation where we were alone and she was unable to resist me.
Even if she took some crazy aphrodisiac and wanted me, but I knew she wasn’t really in control of herself, nothing would happen with me because I know it’s wrong and I have self control. I can say for sure because I’ve been in a similar situation to that, but it was a woman who was desperate to control her sex addiction.
But I’m not a pedophile, maybe it’s different for them.
I know it’s all a joke, but people do sometimes try to judge people’s preferences of what they find sexually attractive based on something like political correctness. Which is just plain stupid. It’s something you’re not consciously in control of.
2½ years’ jail for man wanted by FBI for facilitating oil supply to North Korea
One of the most awkward headlines I’ve seen. How can he already be sentenced if he’s still wanted?
So this guy, Kwek Kee Seng, is a 66 year old Singaporean. He arranged for ships to transfer 6.9 million USD worth of gas oil to North Korean ships in 2019, and he did it remotely.
On April 7, 2026, Kwek, 66, was sentenced to 30 months’ jail and fined $80,000 after pleading guilty to three counts of flouting UN sanctions, one count for receiving the criminal benefits, and another for obstructing the course of justice. Twelve other charges of a similar nature were taken into account.
So since it’s UN, I guess he was sentenced in The Hague and never came to America, so the FBI never had jurisdiction to arrest him? I’m honestly not sure what the hell the FBI has to do with this situation.
To match the “venomous” and “poisonous” words, you can also say “contagious”.
In other news, Pope Leo releases an official press release stating that he is, in fact, Catholic.
I had a similar problem when I lived in Japan, but it manifested in sort of the opposite manner. My Japanese was shit, but my work (as an English teacher) required that I answer the phone using a long Japanese greeting.
Eventually, I could do that greeting in my sleep with very little accent. And I have a name that could be mistaken for a Japanese name.
Inevitably, I’d finish the greeting and they’d respond with a torrent of full speed Japanese that I couldn’t understand at all.
I considered doing the greeting poorly, but instead, I just said “Hello” in English after finishing the greeting and people usually got the idea.
Yeah, the joke doesn’t really work, does it? Any decent programmer will have a better shot at fixing a printer, because any decent programmer is good at finding information on the internet and then following the instructions.
Programmers complain about this situation because once people know that we use the computers, they expect us to fix everything for them for free. So, it’s just annoying. But I wouldn’t sacrifice my life to avoid a minor annoyance, so the joke doesn’t really work.
If you’re a programmer that doesn’t generally know how to find instructions to fix things like printers on the internet and then follow them, then I’m on the side of the guy who wants to shoot them.
The lawn service I was using disabled their web page and only allowed you to make changes via the app or phone.
Of course, they didn’t let you cancel the service from the app, so I had to use the phone to do that.
I have heard that feral house cats will occasionally hunt and kill prey that is much larger than themselves. IIRC, I think they were giving deer as an example. At least it was an animal similar in size to a smaller deer.
