I’m so sick of living paycheck to paycheck making $80k + a year. This world is fucking miserable and disgusting.

!fellas Who didn't do this

Seriously just read this comment:

The Boys is such a weirdly horrible show…

…and that's exactly why I can't stop watching it.

The thing that bothers me most about the show though isn't the s*x or hyperviolence, it's the fact that there really are people out there who actually would idolise Homelander, and that's worse than any gore-soaked murder-fest the show will ever depict (and they've shown some seriously twisted stuff already).

Imagine unironically writing that. Other comments include:

Rick And Morty is another good example. Rick Sanchez is not supposed to be a role model, you Joker-loving freakazoids.

watch another cartoon

Butcher and Homelander's characters are horrible in a truly delectable way though, and both are brilliantly inhabited by their actors.

For me that's what takes The Boys from a 7.* to a high 9.

delectable is one of those Redditor words that makes me cringe.

Yesssss! Antony Starr's portrayal of Homelander is streets ahead. June 13th can't come soon enough.

You might think "this is a clearly astroturfed account and this comment will have been downvoted to heck by the astute, intelligent users of Ars Technica". You'd be wrong, it's one of the top comments and the user has had their Ars account for 23 years.

Let's see the most unpopular comment just to balance things out:

super - yawn

The desperate attempt to be different from other series with <whatever others don't dare to do/show> gets boring very quickly. If you don't have a decent story, even extra violence won't help (as 'The Boys' impressively demonstrates - season 3 was already just a collection of confused story fragments pasted together with violence).

Heroes, zombies, detectives with superhuman cognitive abilities, but with social abnormalities, extra violence, time travel stories with maximum arbitrariness, the 1,000th series variation of a once successful film, with ideas that have long since become stale (Star Trek, Star Wars, all superheroe movies & series, ...), ...

How boring! Mental fast food for people who prefer not to deal with anything.

One of the replies to it:

Unless you're in a private group of friends and been given the 'ok' to do so, nobody likes someone who sarcastically shits on things other people like because they're bored, either in public socialization or on social media.

You have to have a functioning, actual specific critique as to why production on the show may have been a waste relative to something else or the critique falls out as being 'that guy', bored and being a shithead for the sake of it.

dramacels in shambles.

Too many comments all along the same lines to call out them all but the general consensus is:

>Well, as long as both parties consent then I see no problem.

>If they're just doing it for fun and not for babies, then let the sexy times commence!

And:

>In my Philosophy 101 grooming class, the sweaty professor said it's ok and quoted [well-known paedophile philosopher] so I guess it is ok!

Redditors are gross. They always fall over themselves to explain how incest is ok. And just why?

It's instinctively bad, why not use philosophy and logic to explain why we have evolved that instinct and why that might be, instead of explaining why actually incest is OK?

Fricking groomers the whole lot.

Sort by controversial to see the same voices get smugly Redditeured:

Except that we evolved to find s*x among our close family members disgusting. It's different if you've never met this person before, and then you find out you're related, but when you grow up together there are behavioral and cognitive measures put in place that incentivize us to mate outside our family tree. Wild animals exhibit similar behavior when possible, but in general are less avoidant of inbreeding and whatnot.

How much of that is biological and how much is cultural? And is the biological basis intended specifically to prevent inbreeding - in which case it is not relevant in the situation described?

Twitter founder Jack Dorsey is no longer on the board of Bluesky, the decentralized social media platform he helped start. In two posts today, Bluesky thanked Dorsey while confirming his departure and adding that it's searching for a new board member “who shares our commitment to building a social network that puts people in control of their experience.”

The posts come a day after an X user asked Dorsey if he was still on the company's board, and Dorsey responded, without further elaboration, “no.” As TechCrunch points out, Dorsey was on a tear yesterday, unfollowing all but three accounts on X while referring to Elon Musk's platform as “freedom technology.”

Neither Bluesky nor Dorsey himself seem to have said how or why he left the board. For now, two board members remain: CEO, Jay Graeber, and Jabber / XMPP inventor Jeremie Miller. Dorsey originally backed Bluesky in 2019 as a project to develop an open-source social media standard that he wanted Twitter to move to. He later joined its board of directors when it split from Twitter in 2022.

But Dorsey hadn't seemingly been a particularly active participant at the company. In March, when The Verge's Nilay Patel asked Graeber for Decoder about his level of involvement with Bluesky, she said she gets “some feedback occasionally,” but implied he's otherwise “being Jack Dorsey on a cloud,” as Nilay put it. Months before that interview, Dorsey had closed his Bluesky account.

Bluesky did not immediately respond to The Verge's request for comment.

Update May 5th, 2024, 4:37PM ET: Updated with Bluesky's confirmation of Dorsey's departure from its board.

I get really into doing all these little pitchbends and things

TunnelVision, as the researchers have named their attack, largely negates the entire purpose and selling point of VPNs, which is to encapsulate incoming and outgoing Internet traffic in an encrypted tunnel and to cloak the user's IP address. The researchers believe it affects all VPN applications when they're connected to a hostile network and that there are no ways to prevent such attacks except when the user's VPN runs on Linux or Android. They also said their attack technique may have been possible since 2002 and may already have been discovered and used in the wild since then.

( . . . . )

Interestingly, Android is the only operating system that fully immunizes VPN apps from the attack because it doesn't implement option 121. For all other OSes, there are no complete fixes. When apps run on Linux there's a setting that minimizes the effects, but even then TunnelVision can be used to exploit a side channel that can be used to de-anonymize destination traffic and perform targeted denial-of-service attacks. Network firewalls can also be configured to deny inbound and outbound traffic to and from the physical interface. This remedy is problematic for two reasons: (1) a VPN user connecting to an untrusted network has no ability to control the firewall and (2) it opens the same side channel present with the Linux mitigation.

So, I've been divorced for a number of years and have been on numerous dates. What I've noticed is that many men who have hit their 50's and are were in long marriages/relationships seem to be very open about their fetishes. I'm wondering if they have got to a certain age whereby, they feel they no longer want to suppress these feelings?

I'm met the following:

A man with a foot fetish

A man with a wee fetish

A man who likes cross dressing

A man how likes 'Daddydom' (I had to look that one up!)

A man who is obsessed by writing erotica

... and a lastly.... and man who wanted to be a wizard!!!

Is it wrong to just want someone who likes changing the oil on his car or who is happy to do the weekly shop?!!!!!

Change the oil? Not until we've finished the roleplay, go fetch my robe and wizard hat

Not sure if it's about them not suppressing those feelings anymore. More like they are single or not in a longterm relationship because of their fetishes. If it's a proper relationship, their main sexual relationship in life is not with the woman they're with, it's with their fetish. Its a sort of devotion or sexual obsession in some. You are simply a prop to enact it

>he either likes me or likes s*x not both

curious trait of foid reasoning

Anything to remind themselves that they are different, relevant and not that old. I suspect.

Nothing like developing a piss fetish to show everyone how cool you are

I heard a sexologist talking about this in relation to cross dressing. He said that libido drops as men get older so whereas they used to be able to get turned on by regular s*x without indulging in their fetish, as their libido drops they need their fetish to get turned on or conversely they don't want to waste what libido they do have on s*x that's not the most satisfying for them. So the fetish becomes more important.

Interesting, but probably nah. People just get more confident to be themselves as they get older, and this is what being yourself looks like if you're a scrote

This is a very funny thread. All people have fetishes. All of us do. The most common kink fetish is actually female feet (Also called The Gateway Drug).

wtf no one calls it that

Kink, fetishes, are cool. Can be lots of fun IF we practise Risk Aware Consensual Kink (RACK) AND Safe Sane Consensual (SSC).

s*x autists are always fun though, they have more acronyms and special terminology than your lamest corporate middle manager

I expect one of them is my ex H. Divorced him because he insisted on wearing rubber all the time and wanted to go swinging.

Yuck. That certainly isn't my life plan.

Someone else is welcome to him.

I do feel kind of sorry for foids sometimes though, they think they've found someone nice for a cosy fulfilling relationship and he pulls her to the side one day and starts to explain how he won't be happy unless he's getting fricked up the arse in a gimp mask and leather corset
