east coast so i get off a little easier with 9 AM, but even 6 AM i'd be happy with

that way, even if i miss it, i get to wake up and instantly have a direct waiting for me

beats having it doing school/work hours

Internet isn’t a country dude. Inviting someone to a community is like inviting someone to your house. You can say whatever you want but certain things will get you thrown out.
there is nothing anyone could possibly say in my house (barring threats of violence) that would cause me to throw them out

that shouldn't be controversial

there should be a "house" on the internet where i can say anything, because otherwise, some people don't have a place

Not that different where being polite “gets you nothing”. You shouldn’t be polite to get something in return, that’s just what you should strive to do as much as you can.
you're not wrong, but i never said you should get anything in return

i'm just stating the fact that you don't, which sure as fuck doesn't make it any easier (and you should know)

It absolutely is something to ban you over. If you invite some dude to a community and he starts talking shit to you and everyone else why wouldn’t you ban him?
literally and unironically because it's a free country, or at least that's the idea

that's why i want to find a community that allows me to do these things—but not even 4chan, with all its scumfuckery, will even allow you to be too much of a shithead before you get banned

”Being polite on the internet has no benefits” is saying you view interaction on the internet and “real life” as two separate things.
different kinds of interaction =/= different states of reality

a thing that i already said
Quote
Or, you think it’s ok to be an asshole on the internet and real life. Which I doubt, otherwise you’d have no friends. No, what you like to do is vent your frustration out on other people instead of dealing with those feelings in a less destructive way. People aren’t being babies if they get tired of how predictably angry you get over the smallest disagreement.
even if these people knew me long enough to "get tired" of me, which they can't, it's still not something for me to get banned over, since all you have to do is block/mute/ignore me and all of my big bad meanie posts will be hidden

but no, we have to ban negative people arbitrarily because of hurt feelings or something

"negativity isn't welcome here"

okay, point me to the place on the internet where it IS welcome, and i will happily go there

oh wait there is none, guess i'll just die because i refuse to be fake-positive just to appease idiots

you always say interactions are the same on the internet as they are in real life
no, i've always said that the internet is a part of "real life," they're not separate, and that people are more fake offline than they are online

the fact that people interact with each other differently doesn't put it on a different plane of existence or reality

it just makes it so people can express themselves without being fettered or inhibited by social consequence, which they wouldn't NOT do if they could without the internet

being polite on the internet has basically no benefits, because nobody cares (and why would they)
Being nice & polite has benefits no matter where you go, IRL or on the web. How do you think I've cultivated my cult of personality? Through my personality itself, sure, but also just through being a plain ol nice person

I get you have all this anger, and that releasing it can be cathartic, but maybe focus on why you have so much, so you don't need to release it in the first place?
it's because i live on a shit planet comprised of nothing but the most disgusting, stupid, or evil people (or some combination)

i find that exceptionally distressing, considering that i don't have the option to leave, and that i'm expected to mingle and cooperate with them

i don't need to spend any time thinking more about that, i already have that part figured out

1509
if i've learned anything from the hundreds of times i've been banned from various communities, it's that you can be castigated from a community for more than just a single post, and if people are treating you like shit, it's probably because of your reputation rather than just any one thing

1510
it is 100% okay to feel shame or guilt for liking the things you like

there are some things that should just not be liked, and having the self-awareness to admit that is a great thing to have

Did this happen recently? Why don't you be less aggressive/hostile? I learned it's best to coddle people who are mentally handicapped in comparison to yourself; I work with a bunch of retarded sociopaths at work and my mental well-being increased significantly when I started treating them like five year old children.
nothing "recently," more something i've been cursed with my entire internet life

site's dying, trying to find other places to go, but can't, because i just get banned everywhere because of my personality

instead of being "less aggressive" i'd rather just find a community that will allow me to tell people to kill themselves all i want without getting banned

because frankly, i think people should be able to do that

you know i see your point OP but maybe the problem is with you

i agree that subjectivity is implied, because having to say "IMO" every time is obnoxious and you shouldn't have to do it, but at the same time, you don't have to express these opinions with such aggression and hostility
see, but when everyone else does it, which they do, it's basically what they deserve back

being polite on the internet has basically no benefits, because nobody cares (and why would they)

either way, it doesn't really seem healthy to keep all the hate and anger i have all pent up, so i'd rather just let it out because 1.) it's fun for me, and 2.) i don't perceive it as a big deal anyway, i think people should just stop being babies

that's just your opinion

you shouldn't state your opinions as if they're facts, you know
what if i told you that subjectivity is implied, and that you shouldn't need me to spoonfeed you like that
well no you see, you're being aggressive with your opinions, and that's wrong because it hurts my feelings

i should be able to use the internet without having my feelings hurt by someone who has a different opinion than me
i should be able to have a conversation with somebody who understands that there's simply no such thing as "stating an opinion as a fact," and you're merely projecting your own lack of intolerance onto me to feign a sense of maturity

even if i literally said "my opinion is a fact" you should be smart enough to figure out that i'm just fucking with you because you're an idiot who deserves to be fucked with

- it looks better (objectively—anyone who disagrees is a fucking idiot—and no, being gay doesn't make you more objective)
- it's cleaner, since you get to spend less time in the shower (yes, even if it were just one second, that is STILL time saved—absolutely no intelligent person wants to put up with cleaning their smegma, because it's the most disgusting thing in the world)
- it's healthier, as having foreskin just makes it easier to contract some pretty horrible diseases like HIV, and it's also one less organ that can potentially get cancer
- getting the procedure done-and-over-with as a baby means that you won't have to make the conscious choice to get it done as an adult, which is fantastic, because at that point, you're going to become too attached to your junk to make the right decision
- it also has the slightest chance of killing you before you get to live out your shitty fucking life, which is fucking awesome
- the idea of decreasing your nerve endings, making sex feel less good, is inherently appealing to anyone who is intelligent

It would seem to me as though having foreskin has no benefits whatsoever, and anyone who'd want to keep theirs is stupid. It's absolutely superfluous, and being cut is superior in every conceivable way that matters to anybody with a brain.

Your ONE linchpin argument has to do with the consent issue, and if that's your argument, you'd pretty much have to concede to broader consent-concerned arguments as well, such as anti-natalism, in order to be logically consistent. So if circumcision is wrong because "muh consent," in spite of the fact that it's impossible to get that from a baby, then it's also wrong to conceive a child in the first place, because they can't consent to that either. So you're either wrong, or an anti-natalist. You can only pick one.

As for the benefits, I just listed a plethora of them, and every single "con" you could possibly think of is actually an argument for circumcision, not against it.

And for the love of god, don't talk about psychological issues. That doesn't come close to being a compelling argument, because fucking everyone has psychological issues. I'll take a few of those in exchange for a cleaner, healthier, and better looking dick, thank you very much. You're bound to develop a few mental issues anyway, because it's a fucked up world that we live in. So you might as well get a better cock out of the deal, because you're stuck with that cock for life.

I should also acknowledge that most of your sexual partners will prefer circumcised men (as they should, because it's objectively better). If they say otherwise, they're either lying to make you feel better, or they're stupid/crazy—and as the bros say, you're not supposed to stick your dick in crazy.

i just finished mallows trial

that battle was pretty damn intense. i easily got rekt but the sunny day/solar blade, but then my pikachu (who i named pancake) was able to survive 2 back to back solar blades w/ 1 HP (ya know, from the affection bonus)

her static also activated so i spammed charm to lower its attack the all the way down and have an easy time

god i love pokemon lol
definitely my favorite trial (except they changed some of them from the original sun/moon, so i think yours was different)

I've been playing through Gold on the 3DS. I accidentally deleted my Spinarak's Poison Sting instead of another move and now she's useless for the time being. I keep her in my team out of pity at this point.
it'll learn another thing soon enough

i wish i could say she'll become a beast later but lmao ariados sucks unfortunately

better than ledian at least, who i always keep on my gen 2 team in spite of that

What absolutely murders it for me on top of all of this is the game force healing you every  other nanosecond. Like, oh my lord, these games were not exactly Cat Mario to begin with, but could you you at least PRETEND to be giving me challenge. This feels like one big boring ass cutscene at this point.

Walk Two inches
Talk for 30 minutes
Un-losable battle
Talk for 30 Minutes
Forced Heal
Talk for 10 More minutes
Go on the short ass route where the game throws shines at you like candy
Spend 30 ingame hours trying to catch a salamance on Route 2 and it doesnt even have a good nature anyway. what the hell am I doing with my life? What is wrong with me? I could have done literaly anything else whatsoever with that time. I dont even like this game competitively anymore. Why am I doing this?
Repeat Ad Infinitum minus the last step
yeah i never really played these games for challenge, that's what nuzlockes are for

if i'm playing casually, which is rare, i'm mostly in it for the gameplay loop which i find generally fun and addicting regardless of how difficult it is, and the teambuilding, because i always force myself to train different pokémon every time so i can keep things fresh and interesting

i also thought the game's story and overall presentation was the best in the series barring gen 2
