Really? Just as I start growing a pair myself?

Under a properly implemented socialist system, it just wouldn't have a reason to exist, and people would continue having sex the normal, non-exploitative way.

Unless that's your fucking kink or something, but that's pretty niche and usually controlled between known parties.

Sex work is exploitative not because its sexual, but because its work under capitalism.

This is why you run your AP's with openwrt.

ICE has and will detain and beat your ass even if your a white dude who was born here if you fuck with them. Might not be worth it.

Not that I don't like the idea, just seems like a safety issue.

Nothing says 'feminism' like limiting a sex worker's career options to branch out.

Wouldn't expect much more from a TERF paper.

She produces hair and makeup tutorials and lifestyle influencer content for the more than 4.6 million followers she has on Instagram and TikTok.

Interesting part to leave out in the headline.

It might feel wrong to call their last proper sit down at a couch/desk singeplayer experience a "classic", but its older than Half-Life one was when it came out.

That makes me feel old and I wasn't even around for HL1. How's your back feeling, millennials?

Do straight dudes think this happens? Or just the ones who still have to attend homeroom five days a week?

Am I crazy or does everyone in the comments not realize they're talking about ICE the federal agency?

Bit of an unhinged and unreasonable nerd rant but here it goes:

The second dot com boom in the 2010s ruined us. Like holy shit. As someone younger looking down the line, living in tech bro culture, but exposed to the likes of the jargon file, y combinator and their venture capitalists literally ruined hacker culture.

We used to have a thriving culture that cherished freedom, real freedom, not freedom for the rich. What happened to the culture that spawned Windows buyback day? What of the dream that networked freedom would one day break the chains of economic heirarchy?

Like holy fucking shit. If you're not here for the love of the machine stop touching a compiler or better yet go loose your fucking hands.

I hate to say this but fucking good. Throwing random people in Gitmo wasn't enough to piss the people off to do anything, because the only thing that would be enough is when they fuck with everyone's money.

I hate the "fuck you I got mine" attitude so fucking much.
