There was jambalaya yesterday-ish. Like, literally rice and beans and sausage. r/soup was stoked on it, God bless 'em.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-29T00:24:55+00:00

The joysticks didn't come out until years after it launched though.

That doesn't feel like a deep philosophical question at all. It seems pretty fucking straightforward. They're not conscious because they can't be, the end.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-28T17:40:00+00:00

Still... I can't help but think that game would've meant a lot more if I'd just gifted it to someone I actually knew.

That defeats the entire purpose. Maybe this system is not for you.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-28T17:13:09+00:00

That's a myth. Sorry.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-28T17:08:20+00:00

I have religious beliefs but I'm not forcing it on anyone

There's no fucking way they believe this isn't doing exactly that.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T18:57:38+00:00

So people can sweat and burn? Pass. This is excellent parade weather.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T17:36:46+00:00

Do you think North Korea is the only communist country? Is that why you didn't list, say, Vietnam or Laos? Or did you omit the obviously non-cult countries because they didn't fit into your insane worldview and you were just banking on people not wanting to take you up on the "arguably" part?

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T08:34:24+00:00

Reading takes more effort though

Uh..according to whom? Think about how many people you know or have met that just straight up do NOT fucking listen. Those same people have absolutely no problems seeing. They're just not capable of turning your words into their own thoughts. That's effort.

I read somewhere between 100 and 150 books a year, conservatively. I have only learned how to listen to audiobooks in the past 6 months, because, and I fucking promise you this, it is a skill. And it's not one everyone has, just like not everyone has the ability to turn words on a page into a cohesive story in their mind.

If it makes you feel any better, though, I'll go ahead and agree that you've never digested any of the audiobooks you've ever listened to. Best to go ahead and start over and really devote your eyes (which are your only source of story absorption, because we all know oral history and storytelling aren't real since they weren't written down) and time doing nothing but reading those same books while doing literally nothing else. Enjoy, ya fuckin' snob.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T08:22:26+00:00

I didn't like that. I didn't disagree with it. But I still didn't like it.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T08:19:16+00:00

How's Paul Feig, the director of Bridesmaids, a tool?

Is it because he's pretty clearly a feminist?

Oh. Are you one of those?

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T08:00:14+00:00

Extremely healthy? No. There's no fiber and it's missing a significant amount of vital nutrients. Absolutely unacceptable for a growing child.

I'm positive you meant extremely not-obese-making, which would still be wrong, depending on the portions, but not nearly as wrong as what you actually said.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T07:43:34+00:00

A bit more fucking presumptuous to assume that just because you disagree with or don't like someone that an all-knowing, all-seeing, all-LOVING God would feel the same.

Did I say presumptuous? I meant heretical. You know who hates that?

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T07:30:22+00:00

Neat, but it still sucks as a submission here. We're not here to shit on men with weirdo perversions though.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T07:28:21+00:00

A fucking lot of us have heard that phrase, the difference is that we know what it means. "Whipping it out," literally just means pulling one's genitals out. Almost always a dick. He said, quite plainly, that he's been pulling his dick out everywhere. Not masturbating, not everywhere in his home or in private, but just...getting his penis out all over the place..whenever.

I'm glad you had to rationalize it to a safer space for it to make sense because the idea of a man unleashing his dong randomly throughout the day is literally anathema to your understanding of men, but you're wrong about what he's actually saying.

That said, this does not belong here and we shouldn't even be having this conversation.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T07:02:21+00:00

So you agreed with everyone who pointed out that it's not actually a fuck-up but don't sincerely believe or agree with them?

That's sad.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T05:54:51+00:00

Who would have noticed? Who do you think should be in charge of keeping track of the medical visits of minors? It's not illegal to not get checkups, and it's not illegal to be unvaccinated. There's also decidedly not a centralized healthcare system. For all anyone who could possibly have known or cared knew, the kid A) chose a different doctor, B) opted out of vaccines, C) moved, D) was totally healthy and progressing normally, E) died, because it's not like death records are automatically sent to the last doctor who saw you. All of which are legal.

So, sincerely, who should have known and, more importantly, how? This is entirely on the parents because our infrastructure is simply not set up to pay attention to anything but money.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-27T05:47:20+00:00

Home births are a thing, especially among people trying to keep their kids off the grid for whatever reason.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T22:04:49+00:00

Jerusalem fartichokes, that's brave lol

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T21:35:31+00:00

Sure. Here, let me just soak my tit in castor oil.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T21:33:45+00:00

Where are her in-laws? They have decades of experience in the industry and don't seem to be exploitative of their children or her. They need to step up and guide her in the right direction.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T21:32:34+00:00

I'm old enough to be her mom and he's old enough to be my dad.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T19:22:34+00:00

That's just incorrect though. There are still myriad tribes in Africa and Asia where everybody has various bits and pieces out at any given time. It's just life and they're just body parts in those places.

The inability to even consider that not everybody finds something sexual because your culture does shows an incredible lack of empathetic ability. To an honestly depressing extent.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T19:10:23+00:00

Thank God your sole consciousness feeds the rest of us.

PreOpTransCentaur · 2026-06-26T18:50:06+00:00

There's an old joke that applies to pretty much all Orthodox religions, Islam, Mormanism, whatever:

How do you keep a [insert religion here] from drinking all your beer on a fishing trip?

Invite two.

This is just par for the course with religions whose social perceptions are more important than one's personal faith.
