Sexuality is just fucked up in general.  This conversation hasn't even gone into the realm of bizarre fetishes.  Even completely uninteresting monogamous hetero sexuality is fucked up, because human sexual anatomy was obviously designed by a troll.  I think it's always going to be screwed up for everyone.

True. What sort of messed up city planner would put a playground next to the sewers?

Mhmm. I say just stop caring about what turns people on. That's their business, and there's no "right" or "wrong" way to go about it.

Provided you're not hurting anyone or anything, anyway. I'll start caring once a victim of some sort becomes involved.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I'm sorry I took us on this tangent if it's making you feel more jaded. That wasn't my intention. :/

Also, nooo, no self loathing. Bad. Of course I'm also pretty sure I'm misunderstanding what you're trying to communicate there.

And categories WORK, they just don't work PERFECTLY. They are tools we use to model reality and help it make sense, nothing more and nothing less.

O loath and jade have been around long before I came here I and doubt that anything short of even more years of therapy or the more tried and true method, even more years of alcohol can quiet them. That is to say, you didn't do anything bad. I actually like you, and given my jadedness/propensity for not holding back about not liking people,you know I actually do like you. :)

Please do not elaborate. Yes, but please....

aaaand too late.... :P Damn it. O, I am actually quite afraid of the derail this could set us on [legitimate shudder].

Sounds good to me. Seems I have trouble finding a decent guy who is cool with my various oddities/being trans. Meh.

O son of a .... Let me get this straight Foxconn. You don't have money to pay your employees more but you've got enough for craploads of nets to catch them as they jump off the building in suicide.... [dead silence].

Suicide nets: the up and coming hot import item for third world sweatshop countries.....

....Yay? Not really, but hopefully it will at least save some lives. I guess Foxconn isn't evil to an impractical degree.

I am disturbed by the mentality that thinks that the problem here is that the ground is too hard.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Na, they don't care about people not diving off the roof to death. Its more they don't want the bad PR/cleanup all over their pavement.

I know. That's what I meant. Installing anti-suicide nets to curb bad press is a strategy that is a form of practical evil, because it does something positive even though Foxconn doesn't actually care about their employees lives.

Clearly, the something positive is a new commodity of suicide nets to revitalize the stagnant economy, but revitalize for who...?

Whelp, that's depressing. And now, a kitty! Honestly, that crap was depressing/ this is all just a distraction to keep us off the real problem. :)

Option 1: They go splat: horrible PR means they get sued.
Option 2: They get caught: business as usual, or they have to go jump elsewhere where the impact will not be so easily noticed.

Utter failure? Hope this will make it *cough* look like * cough* we care?

Kitty reminds me of when parent person let You out, never to be seen again. You slept on my chest for many months, often leading to me having a hell of a time breathing, but the warmth and companionship was very fulfilling. You was a beautiful black cat that I managed to catch and begin domesticating about the age of that kitten. The look I got from the vet when I took her in for shots for the first time was delightful. I miss You :-[

The bright side to it is that the next black cat I manage to nab will be named You Two.

Incidentally, though, hey! Deregulation :P
