Do we as a nation believe in freedom of speech?

It’s falling with style

the incentive is if they sell they realize their gains and are left much richer

There's a famous OkCupid study that showed 20% of men got 80% of the matches. Other dating apps have a similar skew.

So are the porous yellow with the rough green back sponges better?

The trope of society praising male promiscuity is largely an invention of the 20th century.

Biblical and Hebrew texts all encourage punishment of both man and woman in instances of adultery.

As a man I don’t like promiscuous men because they’re competition. I don’t want to introduce my female friends to them because they’re not relationship material, and I don’t find them trustworthy as a wingman. Call it jealousy, but I think the same dynamic applies to the other gender.

Isn’t being a stay at home wife being compensated to do that work?

Your bills and mortgage are paid for, so is the food. You get to spend time with the kids. Sounds way less stressful than a high stakes job.

Nostalgia for childhood where you had a community (family) and your needs were taken care of (dependence).

Family is the original community

Loving people equally is impossible. Even poly people have a 'primary' introducing hierarchy and preference.

A group of people sleeping together is not a stable community. It's filled with people who are trying to sleep with other people inside and outside of the group who are vocal about being able to spend time, money, and effort on others for sex. There's nothing binding a group like this together besides sex.

Even normal community activities like volunteering or sports clubs have drama and people who end up hating each other. Add sex in the mix and you've created an explosive dynamic.

How do you address the feeling that the non-committed person you're sleeping with

1) Does not prioritize you

2) Finds somebody they like more than you

3) Not actually happy with you but still uses you

4) Is going to get STDs from other people

5) Will have less and less time for you because of others

6) Believes children can be raised "by a village" instead of their own hard work

7) Wants to involve other people in your life

8) Births a child with somebody else (maybe?) as the parent

9) The mere thought of them with another person grosses you out

I find it funny that poly relationships will insist on talking about feelings but get very uncomfortable at any sign of jealousy or attachment.

People who do not depend on relationships simply don't enter into relationships.

For everybody else, there is the normal and perfectly human feelings of jealousy, attachment, fear or loss, and feeling associated with self-confidence.

can we also blame the DNC for not holding an election for who would run against trump?

Or the DNC for throwing Bernie under the bus in 2016 (he would have beaten trump)?

Maybe the two party system has grown rotten to the core

Before LLMs, Google was showing highlights which took crawled content and displayed it on google search results, meaning they’d get less traffic on their site while google stole their content.

It’s unfortunate that google helped kickstart the world wide web but now they’re extracting everything while polluting search results with ads
