We've been tryyyyying, but these ungrateful homelesses just won't have it!
PCD certainly is a serious problem and not a moral failing. As you say, my statement is incomplete, but I might call it focused instead. The reason I'm bringing up lonely men here isn't because I think PCD is confined to men, but because I don't know anything about women's experiences with it
I go into more detail in a separate comment thread, but my take on the way NFT Avatar talks about PCD as sort of, 'just how men work,' is that within their worldview, it very likely is how they're supposed to work. Tradcaths, Evangelicals, Mormons, and non-theistic Fapstronauts as they regrettably call themselves all share similar mechanisms for binding people's sex drives into a feedback loop of doomed internal battles-of-will followed by feelings of shame and inadequacy steeling their resolve for the next doomed battle
It's not just about masturbation, either. It's part of a broader, essentialistic way of looking at people and their sexuality. In that kind of framework, the concept of an "ideal person" can be contrasted to "human nature," and flattened onto a linear conception of morality. So, set the ideal to be both arbitrary and practically impossible, and suddenly you're violating Morality (or some pop-psychology equivalent) by thinking about butts, which almost seems funny until you think about how hellish that is
What I guess I'm trying to say is that, in addition to all the other traumas people go through, we have some massively popular ideologies that systematically inflict particular kinds of ideological trauma on tons of people. I was lucky enough to escape Evangelical philosophy early, but it's hard to describe just how reliably disorienting it can be to have a conditioned anxiety response to experiencing joy
TL;DR - The illuminati is using hot Communist frogs to distract you from Gawd
Fun fact: if you slowly heat up a frog, it will get uncomfortably warm and leave. This says nothing about humans, however, because it's just froglore
Since 2013 she's been publishing her pulp mystery as Robert Galbraith
The most notable person with that name is the MKUltra-ass psychiatrist who invented 'gay conversion therapy', Robert Galbraith Heath
I thought Rowling had a reputation for demanding close control over her movies, though. Considering her track record of high-visibility dogwhistling (like her pen name), I have a hard time believing that the stars of David weren't a factor in choosing the set location
If it was a coincidence, then she must have been over the moon about her luck
Embrace your cringe, comrade. Live in harmony with yourself
Inland Empire: "People need to know of your vast, oceanic soul."
That Dude: "My soul is immense."
Inland Empire: "Utterly. And it needs to be heard. Through a hate forum. By other people."
So that she could use the name of the "inventor" of gay conversion therapy.
Robert Galbraith, son of a jackal
Oh that's easy, it's their faith in their anti-gay beliefs.
Suppose that, for no reason, I take it as Gospel that one subset of people which doesn't categorically hurt anybody is capital-E Evil. When I try to tell people my Truth about how they and their loved ones are Evil, they tell me I'm wrong and call me, 'bo*mer.' This inexplicable treatment that I receive is called, 'bigotry' and it must end
They would probably call it 'reaching out'
"You know who else felt like an outcast? Jesus."
Two-state solution? I don't know, that sounds like a lot of Palestines but we can give it a try
