I feel that it flattens discourse and makes it more difficult to discuss complex ideas and concepts. I think this is evident by the way that anymore people go on ‘Tweet storms’ where they basically write what should be a blog post/think piece but have to cut it up into 140 character chunks. Discourse on the internet…

kinda funny Anthony Noto is not a verified account

Rhymes with “coat”

exactly what part of the hero’s journey is unfamiliar to him

It sounds like you had a pretty negative experience, and I’m sorry if you personally experienced or witnessed abuse. If you feel like sharing, do you think the education you got was better than what you would have received locally? To an outsider, it doesn’t seem like these schools offer a good enough education to…

and he admits that although the original legislation he filed in March was written with a “bias against police,”

Dude...... he used Hitler as a baseline for saying that Assad has taken things too far. At best, it is a clumsy and ill-fitting comparison; at worst, it is a denial of the Holocaust and anti-Semitic.

Sorry, but you’re wrong. Zyklon B produced hydrogen cyanide to kill people. Hydrogen cyanide is classified as a chemical weapon.

The sick part of all this is that there’s already people on the internet trying to clarify his statements for him. I slowly loose hope for this country everyday.

And Hitler didn’t murder the Jews.

Kentucky is one of the poorest states. There are women for whom simply paying for the procedure is too great a burden — never mind taking a few days to drive up to Cincy (assuming they can even get an appointment, since that clinic will be SLAMMED if Kentucky’s all closed), stay in a hotel during the damned “waiting…

I think the fantasies your gentleman friend describes are pretty common and don’t necessarily mean he’s a monster or whatever but definitely the sort of thing that need to be approached with a LOT of understanding about safety, boundaries and consent, which I get the impression didn’t happen in the moment when you…

If you ask him “Well, how would that work?” the answer that respects your well-being and safety would suggest safe words, starting with something small, and what your boundaries are. If he answers that it would be ‘when the moment is right’, when he wanted to, or something along that bent then there is a huge issue.

I’d be concerned that he just dove all the way in. A conscientious partner would test the waters a bit I think

I’m going to go in a different direction that the rest of your responses and say that this is fairly ‘normal’ (insofar as anything is normal). He is just expressing a fantasy. If he acted on any of these fantasies without discussion that would be seriously not okay, but discussing fantasies is fine.

Or at least work up to that shit.

Depends on who brought up the talk of fantasies. if him, may have been trying to lead to it. If you, then he’s being honest, but doesn’t mean he’d do it without prior consent/safewords.

I mean, that depends on you and what you like in the bedroom. I know women whose panties would’ve been flooded after reading that. I also know women that would never talk to him again after reading that. He should’ve figured that out before going there. The fact that he didn’t is a little concerning. Follow your…

What kind of heinous shit would a decent college football team have to do, for this to happen on the same scale?

What you do is cover the skulls with enough brush to hide them, so as that burns down, the skulls are slowly revealed. THAT’s how you convince someone that you’re a serial killer who’s professing their guilt to their next victim. Maybe throw in some chicken bones or spare ribs to make it more convincing, not many…
