One has nothing to do with the other. There’s nothing wrong with those of similar age being in a relationship. Romeo and Juliet laws require the couple to be within three years of each other. That has nothing to do with 40 year old men creeping on teenage girls. This thread is insane and really shows the demographics of Lemmy.

1/3 women are sexually harassed in their lifetime. Women have posted their stories about being sexually harassed more frequently as a young teenager than an adult. I personally have been groped and propositioned for prostitution while I was walking down the street in broad daylight. Not to mention the numerous cat calls. Everything stopped the moment I no longer looked like a child. This is what the post is about. Not consensual relationships.

What you’re talking about is roleplay…

Wow that’s cruel. Someone’s cat gets loose, they can’t find it yet, and you think it should be killed. Good job killing Fluffy because he escaped.

Declawing is cruel. It’s basically cutting off your first knuckle.

So you simply think they can starve however many civilians they want, most of whom are children, because it hurts Hamas?

So you ignore the question?

Why do these companies need a contract?

I legit always thought it was Tender Loving Care.

You know what would actually put a dent in illegal immigration? Fixing their country that we broke. They come here because being undocumented and working under the table with potentially dangerous conditions is better than their home country. Maybe we shouldn’t have destabilized so many democracies in South America.

You and me both. I love documentaries and when I get on a space kick, I think about this a lot. What did it look like? What’s nothing? My brain can’t fathom literally nothing. It had to be some sort of something. Almost makes me want to say that the universe does have a creator, but in that case, where’d the creator come from? (My favorite creation myth is that the Goddess danced and galaxies spun off on her dress. Makes as much sense as any of the others.)

This is actually really cool. I have no idea about any of it, but I remember watching a documentary a long time ago that said certain mathematical patterns repeat all over nature. What you said seems similar to that.

Oh, so you checked up with every person who said they’d move and you personally know that they didn’t?

Huh, I didn’t know that Ukraine was trying to take over Russia and that Russia was in danger of not existing anymore.

All of these links say yes, it’s a law that the sale and production of synthetic meat is banned in Italy.

I swear the bunnies in my neighborhood would do this. They’re super cute, but not very smart.

Of course my breathing is all I can think about now.

It depends on how you think about it. I think of it as giving my kids a piece of myself in my love and effort to care for them. They are their own people, but they carry a part of me, just as I carry a part of my parents and those who helped shape me into the person I am.

I don’t think this person believes that people are actively making up intrusive thoughts or talking about something that doesn’t happen. It seems like they’re saying that thoughts, any thoughts, are our imagination, intrusive or otherwise.

Can I hate the people who actively prop it up?

I’m fairly certain they don’t think people should work for free, but that the cost of a surgery shouldn’t be several bills to the hospital, the doctor, the anesthesiologist, the nurses, and wherever else they come up with who want s separate bill. When I go to the grocery store, it’s not like I pay the cashier, the stocker, the store itself, and the manager. It’s so confusing when you have to pay several different parties whose bills come in weeks to months after the surgery.
