Circumcision removes a lot of the sensitive tissue, making it harder for a man to climax, especially while masturbating.

It’s done primarily by religious loons to ‘keep men from committing sin’, since they believe the only way a man should ever climax is during penetrative sex with a woman. But even then a circumcised man will feel less pleasure than an uncircumcised one.

So this is primarily done to get some of the feeling back, both to be able to masturbate easier and to have greater pleasure during sex.

He had sex with underage girls. Wtf is wrong with you, defending a pedo?

And where in my previous post did I call you stupid?

You speak of mental health days in a derogatory way, as if you find the very idea that people should take care of their mental as well as physical health offensive, for reasons I don’t understand.

I’m saying that your mocking statement about taking days off for such things should in fact be something we do, and something we should find acceptable to do.

I absolutely guarantee you one of those things is not like the others. Period pain can be truly debilitating, especially for a person with endometriosis. It is totally worth time off.

Also, I find your insinuation that women take time off for ‘low mood’ and ‘being irritable’ frequently—as opposed to men—rather sexist and offensive, not to mention not reflective of reality.

However, I do like how you inadvertently stumbled into the idea that we should all have more sick days and mental health should be included in the definition of ‘health’. Taking time off for a mental ‘breather’ should be normalized in our society. I also think higher-mental-stress jobs like 911 dispatcher should get more mental health off-time.

Aren’t they though, at this point?

Here’s one

Curious, since I’ve never filleted a fish before; what would you do for bigger fish like salmon?

It’s addictive. People get addicted to stress too.

The difference is hate makes you feel stronger and more focused than you really are. It gives you a target that’s not you, so you don’t ever have to face yourself.

This is a very good analogy!

Although to be pedantic, there are white crows; there was one living in my neighborhood some years back.

It’s actually down in most areas.

Broader claims about trends in retail theft have not panned out. Walgreens, for example, cited spikes in shoplifting as an explanation for falling profits and store closures. The claim has since been retracted. Target blamed theft for a rash of store closures. But an analysis by researcher Jeff Asher showed that, according to the limited data available, the stores Target closed in Portland and Seattle had less crime than stores that were not closing. Reporting by CNBC in September 2023 also cast doubt on retailer claims about the impact of theft, noting that “certain retailers” have “pulled back” from blaming organized theft as “a primary cause of losses.” In fact, to the extent it can be relied upon, industry data cuts against the idea of a recent national spike in retail theft.

Nothing like being treated like a criminal when I go into a store to give them money.

Don’t know why, but I hate it with a passion.

Although anyone who works in an ER will tell you the full moon is the busiest night; the occurrence rate of every issue but murder goes up.

Montana is banning those. Expect a nationwide ban to come soon.

Pretty sure you’re too old to be this stupid, dude.

Hey, they asked for a random password, not a good one.

Well that’s a bit alarming.

They literally didn’t say that

Y’know, it’s a lot easier to have a conversation when you don’t put words in the other person’s mouth.

It was for a time, back in the 50s & 60s. From what I’ve heard bosses would try and set up their unmarried junior employees with a ‘good match’ too, sometimes.

Thankfully, Pony, now 21, was rescued by the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation, and now lives at one of their rehabilitation centres.

I take solace in the fact that she was rescued and is now living a safe, happy life.
