Welcome to 1,000 games of minesweeper/tetris/flappybird! With, maybe, two or three more advanced games like Thrive or Endless Sky.

Whaaaa, noooo. Belt off, helmet’s for pussies, gas is meant to be floored, and ppl need to feck off. /s

Although I do drift with forklift irl…

Courage - I know the consequences and can bear them to achieve what I need

Stupidity - The risk is calculated, but I suck at math.

Meanwhile men don’t have access to support groups, are not supported by anyone when they admit it, get straight up ridiculed for this ever happenning by both everyday people and justice system…

It happens to both genders. But we managed to build fundamental lattice of support for one of them (fundamental as in there’s still so much to do), while failing to even recognize the other one faces this problem too. We do not have to compromise on helping one side to help the other - that’s straight up not an option. But we should help, and recognize the need of help, for both.

The gas is meant to hug the floor tightly, engine is meant to roar, adrenaline to be pumped, and zoomies to be upheld.

…in a race. However, zoomies apply everywhere.

Not a player nor a DM, so correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t it basically photoshop human now? Grab a human, shift colors until skin is green…orc? :|

Similiar, however I absolutely love walking fast. Hell, I am always trying to top my speed.

Except at work. Cuz then things get done too fast and I land at 10 on the scale. :(

Truly lazy. Memorised layout. Light is meh, only intruders trip now.

Then I trip on intruders.

Not USA, but I am somewhat patriotic. For those who actually don’t understanding why burning a flag irks some folk: Flag is a symbol of a country. People who feel pride for their country, who feel like they really are a part of that country and root for it, are feeling something akin to being spat on when the flag is burned, as it shows disrespect for country and what it stands for, them included.

I don’t judge people without context tho, as often burning the flag is a method of showing major dissatisfaction with how country is being run - in a sense, showing that one doesn’t feel this connection anymore.

And when done “for fun”…well, idiots are everywhere, whatever.

I…what? Never said 7 was better than 10, nor that quality goes up. Just that every second windows is good.

Every second windows tho. Xp good, Vista bad, 7 good, 8 bad, 10 good, 11 bad…

Not only in Russia. Lived in one. Cockroach problem was constant. But overall, if you modernize them, they are great.

Reminds me when I got off diet. I was so desoerate that I took a whole ass bread, cut it horizontally, put a lot of veggies and meat inside and ate it in one go.

God it felt good.

God my stomach hurt.

Fair…though funny you mention cancer. My partner went through that and brushed with death and she has pretty much the same approach as me.

I…still cannot wrap my head around the fear of death. If you’re dead, that’s it, done, your warranty is void and all that. What to fear?

I fear consequences of my death - shit people close to me will be put through. But death itself? It’s like fearing time. Shit’s just there, always was, always will be, touches all of us and nobody can do shit bout it.

Voice and intonation dictates how I perceive characters and such. And if it’s read in monotone, no way in hell I’ll be able to focus on it.

The only “unneeded” abortions are those that are forced on the mother against her will.

Abortion is killing off another human being, so it’s not really that black and white. Also, I agree that forced abortions are, at the very least, unneeded.

The only “help” our hypothetical victim has requested is an abortion, and she hasn’t requested it from you.

What I meant by help is therapy, societal support and the like. If we just presume that every woman wanting abortion is a rape victim, these forms of help would loose support due to lessening the weight of situation.

Why are you choosing to involve yourself?

The only place I chose to involve myself initially was in calling a human being brought into this world through people knowing what they are doing a parasite.

I’ll stop you right there.

It was you who wanted to kniw my rationale. I simply responded.

As our situation does not involve anyone accused of a criminal act, there is no valid justification to presume consent.

Meanwhile, however, you require others to presume that there’s a rape victim. This means there’s criminal act, and thus is a valid justification.

If your personal code of morality only allows you to accept abortion in the case of non-consent, you may presume non-consent. You can satisfy your own morality by accepting the possibility that she was raped, and just doesn’t want to talk about it. You can simply presume she meets your arbitrary criteria; you have no need to actually prove her status to any degree of certainty.

I’ll be honest, only at this point I actually got what you are going for, but sadly, it applies both ways and depends highly on someones morality. While I cannot say in good faith that I would choose life of an unborn baby over it’s mothers health - be it mental or physical - there are people whose moral compas wouldn’t allow to simply accept killing off such child. There are also more reasonable - in ny opinion - people who simply don’t want us to kill off unborns due to the mere convienience.

My point from the get go was, however, to not treat creating a new living being from activity meant for doing just that as a surpise and/or punishment. For people to think about what they are doing, and what consequences may be.

About presuming she met any criteria: If our aim is to limit unneeded abortions, then this approach is not only invalid, but also damaging. It will work against the target of removing casual abortions while also removing a lot of weight behind act of rape. The second part is dangerous because it could lessen actual amount of help for victims. Also, this means that woman would have to prove she’s a victim - by gaining second opinion, most probably with the help of police, maybe could be done by medical specialist. I’d honestly rather lean onto the other, to remove need for criminal investigation if such is unwanted by victim.

About last point: I choose to presume consent because great majority of children is conceived consensually, and as such this is default, and I’d treat a rape victim as a rape victim, not much to say about that one. Case by case.

1. I didn’t aim to proclaim “women need to admit to rape to get healthcare”. I countered instead calling fetus a rapist - an actively and wholly out of control of a woman agressor. No, unethical situations aside, both parties knew what consequences are there. No use getting pissed at someone/thing because of your own stupidity.

2. I put rape aside because it wasn’t aimed at discussing this part in depth but…if you want, why not. First of all, women, as you wrote, are not obligated to admit to being a victim of rape. And yes, in the way I described it above, it’s suggested that rape victims are entitled to abortion. However, the mental jump to then switching the logic around that any woman looking for abortion was raped is simply illogical in the same manner that saying only alcoholics buy alcohol is. In the dystopian version of the world where abortion is fully illegal except for unexpected and unethical situations like rape, I think that yes, women would have to admit to being a victim to receive medical help. There’s simply hardly any other way.

Nope, a science project apparently, was it not?
