Thats what I thought too. The reality is still fucked up, but I don't feel one iota of bad for people getting scammed for using an app to snitch to ICE.

Hell, I'll go against the grain here and say that if my wife wanted to watch porn featuring me, some kind of AI or otherwise manipulated imagery is the only way that's practically going to happen, and I'd have no issues indulging her in principle.

The main sticking point would be the feasibility of generating that content without feeding my photos to some 3rd party, and more importantly making sure that imagery never leaks outside of her direct personal and private possession.

I'd very much prefer to give consent, but if she were to do it on her own, my main issues would again be around the point above. Otherwise I wouldn't feel much different than if she told me she got off while imagining me on her minds eye. And the same types of caveats would apply: Me with some anonymous 3rd party? Whatever floats her boat. Me with a specific person, or worse yet, someone we know? That's when it starts to cross a line.

Great, now that's in my comment history!

Only thing more embarrassing than breaking a B string is when the G string snaps.

I'll see myself out....

Beautiful guitar by the way!

I love the theme too, but South Park ruined it for me. I can't listen to it anymore without hearing "Wiener, weiner-weiner..." in the back of my mind :(

100%, I can't overstate how jealous I am when I see a clean BRG miata like this!

Not sure if it helps you at all...

Connect used to have some random issues with image scaling, but these large/tall images scale/zoom/scroll well nowadays.

My wife went through something similar. Took until she was in her 30s and we were pursuing IVF for someone to take her seriously and actually do the investigation to realize she had crazy scarring from endometriosis causing all kinds of issues.

It's insane to me how much the modern medical community seems to normalize or straight up ignore this shit, like you said.

I realize we could have pushed harder, but when multiple doctors tell you "yeah, some women just experience periods differently, here's 500mg Naproxen to help you through" you tend to believe it.

Using different cutlery based off of meal size/how long you want to savor something (ex: You like ice cream, so you may eat it with a smaller spoon so it lasts longer.).

I don't do this all the time, but definitely with desserts and sweets. Both from the perspective of being able to savor it longer, and also for portion control.

Even more so, the mountains of salt from people who care way too much about a shitty webcomic.

I agree that makes a lot of sense--to your original point of targeting policies to achieve very specific goals.

I read another comment suggesting their efforts would actually be better spent targeting purple or barely-red states, if the goal is to really hurt Trump's support. You can only realistically change the minds of a small percentage of MAGAs, then it makes sense to target the regions where that small percent translates to a flip in votes.

I'm not sure I totally buy the analysis, since all this tariff bullshit is as much about messaging and dick-waving as anything else, but there's probably a nugget of truth to it.
