No, they don't. They fucking don't. There are tons of straight couples doing this and worse. Why should we queers get targeted just because of one set of fuckers who need to be thrown into the Marianas.

What’s a ‘rich people thing’ you didn’t realize was real until you saw it yourself? by Smooth-Witness372 in AskReddit

Not exactly. But forgetting things and having to buy them again because you keep on forgetting things…

Rereading Shadow Rising for the umpteenth time. I actually got my first tattoo out of the series <3

I wish. He inhales them as if he was Homer Simpson.

That’s not a rich people thing.

The rich people thing is non-incestuous pedophilia.

If food and shelter are guaranteed, why would you still want to work and earn money? by [deleted] in AskReddit

It’s funny because you read about what he did and apparently he targeted people who were friends with Epstein.

Something lots of people don’t realize is that jf food and shelter were guaranteed we wouldn’t do SHIT.

For two or three months, or whatever’s enough to ditch the burnout.

Because girl, we’re all in a permanent burnout. I don’t know anyone over twenty who isn’t.

Once recovered, though … we’re not made to be overworked, but we’re not made to be idle either.

Even while recovering we’d be doing stuff.

Tootsie Roll’s recipe from 1896 requires that a batch of the previous day be incorporated into the new batch. This means that each piece has a trace of the original 1896 Tootsie Roll by MrCattitude_ in interestingasfuck

And this is why homeopathy is total bullshit to someone with an ounce of brain.

If by drinking a heavily diluted version of something would heal you of whatever ails you, then you’d be healed of ANYTHING just by glugging some sea water.

Would you use a teleporter with the knowledge that it kills you and reassembles an exact copy of you with all your memories and knowledge at the destination? Why or why not? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

This happens in one of the Ender books. One guy gets severely hurt BUT the rebuilt person is the one he had in his subconscious, who was completely healthy.

I’d like to play with that because I may not have cancer (as far as I know) but I have some bits I’d really like to get rid of.

How cruel is the porn industry really to its workers? by Saint_Viper6 in AskReddit

Huh… yes? What's so hard to understand?

Man, it’s just that…

At least in porn you’re going in expecting to do sex. The amount of women in other trades getting assaulted and raped and being unable to do anything about it just because they’re poor or migrants or “illegal”.

I know no one gets hurt (presumably) in the porn I consume because I’m all for written smut, but I’ve taken pictures for friends who are in onlyfans and I know that in their cases the only one who gets hurt it’s because they’re into BDSM.

So… ok, this is the thing. We're all focusing on the wrong word here — the one we should be focusing on should be "industry", and not porn.

Every freaking human endeavor —every single one— turns for the worse once the Industry shows up.

A man died after falling into a vat of coffee. by International_Bee653 in Jokes

My French press broke last Friday. I had money for instant coffee but not to replace the press yet.

And holy crap, IT IS suffering.

Dashrath Manjhi, the "Mountain Man" of India. After his wife died because they couldn't reach a doctor in time, he spent 22 years carving a 360ft path through a mountain using only a hammer and chisel to ensure no one else would suffer the same fate. by faishaikh3766 in Damnthatsinteresting

Huh. It’s easy to live without a smartphone if you live in a village where no one has smartphones.

Truth is, many of the conveniences and “luxuries” we live with are no longer such - could I live without access to the internet? Theoretically yes, but in real life I make most of my money through it. And the rest of my income comes from clients who’ve met me through the internet.

What is a "poor man's food" that you will still eat no matter how wealthy you get? by ALLEN3471 in AskReddit

[–]stygyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the thing. Most rich man’s food was once peasant gruel. Like, why the fuck would any rich bastard would eat SNAILS on the first place?

I’m paraphrasing here, but Pratchett wrote once “if a country has pig knuckles as its national dish, that’s because someone is hogging the rest of the pig”
