They're both Frankenstein, and also they're both monsters. Victor shouldn't have made the monster, and he should've done more to stop it, but the monster was also an asshole. Being treated like a monster doesn't make it okay to act like one.
My experience voting in Georgia is that in-person elections are done on a computer that prints your vote, and absentee ballots are done with SAT-style bubble filling, so hanging chads specifically shouldn't be a problem. I'm sure they'll come up with some other kind of fuckery though.
I forget the details, but the long and short of it was that they were advocating for anyone found sending these prompts to an AI being put on an FBI watch list, along with something along the lines of "you'd want to know if your neighbor was doing this." Then came at least three edits about how they didn't care about downvotes.
See, imo this is the exact kind of thinking that makes pedophilia dangerous. Most people would agree that being attracted to children is a mental illness. Most people would agree that mental illnesses should be treated by a knowledgeable professional. But pedophilia is so stigmatized that someone even admitting they have a problem, one I very much doubt most of them want to have, has people calling for them to be drawn and quartered, regardless of if they've ever actually hurt anyone.
Do I like that there's art and writing of people having fantasies about children? No, of course not. But making it impossible for people to have a safe outlet, to even talk about it with a medical professional for fear of imprisonment, death threats, or worse, makes it so these people can't even get the help they need. It's like teaching abstinence only sex ed. You're trying to get people to stop having fantasies by burying them, but it only exacerbates the issue.
Edit: lol got your downvote less than five minutes in and the whole comment edited to just say "pedophiles bad." I guess I, as you like to put it, "hit a nerve."
Yeah from what I hear Aldi's a great place to work. Downside is I think they usually don't have a ton of employees and it's a pretty in-demand job, so it's a relatively hard job to get.
Idk about Max specifically, but I've definitely noticed that on platforms like Netflix, availability of shows depends on what country you're in. Looks like it might be time to break out the VPNs.
It's a show called Mystery Science Theater 3000. It's about someone stuck in space by evil scientists and forced to watch bad movies with his robot companions (played by puppets). The show is made up mostly of them watching the movie with only their silhouettes in the bottom of the screen as they make fun of the movie, like in the comic, with occasional segments where they leave the theater and usually do some kind of skit related to the film.
It's kinda corny but it's a fun show. They have a channel on YouTube where they upload some of the episodes and play others live, and an app where you can watch most of them ad-free.
I mean sure, there are always concessions to be made, but what I had in mind was more the "include this entire 6 GB library so I can use this particular function once" kind of bloat.
