doverhog posted:Flight attendant or massage therapist on a private plane that also will gently caress you is a real job, and sex work is work. Outrage at that reality should be directed at the capitalist system in which informed consent is often impossible, on purpose, because it benefits capital to exploit workers. No I think outrage should be directed at the guy who sexually harassed his employee

Outrage at that reality should be directed at the capitalist system in which informed consent is often impossible, on purpose, because it benefits capital to exploit workers. This was kind of poorly worded. It is possible to consent to work, even in a capitalist system, because you have weighed the options and it is the best one you can find. Often though this is not the case and active consent has not been established.

It is still internally consistent to believe that a) sex work is work and b) being pressured toward unagreed to sex work is sexual harassment Hope this helps you doverhog. Alternate post: Doverhog more like show 'er hog.

I'm starting to think everyone who suggests that humans as a species dying is a good thing should volunteer to die immediately Nothing of value would be lost and the world would be one unit closer to that person's goal

That's just a lazy refusal to look at the fundamental reasons why the world is the way it is, or people do the things they do. (and I know this is d&d stuff, and shouldn't be pursued here)

Also even if I agree with the basic sentiment, almost anytime I see people parrot the catchphrase "sex work is work" they always seem do it while they are being weird/annoying, usually both at the same time.

Robobot posted:Unpopular opinion: I kinda like Teslas. I think they’re kinda cool in that people are allowed to buy and operate concept cars with unproven technology. In about 15 years I bet the cars are gonna be really good. A few dead drivers is a small price to pay for a future with Johnny Cabs and all cars able to go 0-60 in 4 seconds. In a way they are kind of mass market Homer Simpson cars, but I love them and would buy one if I had a house to charge it and made more money. Well and if they would put a public charger in North East Arizona, my favorite place to do a mini road trip to.

sex work is work sex workers deserve rights, including unionisation, legalisation, regulation, and healthcare a fuckton of jobs under capitalism are very literally wage slavery, and most people are not able to choose their job because if they try to do that they will starve and die companies cannot make money without paying people less than they are worth ------- I don't think any of these things are in dispute because there's been about 100 years of proving the latter two things (Like, they are how a capitalist system is able to function), and the former two things tangibly create better outcomes for people doing sex work, rather than pretending that nobody does it and arresting them and fining them for doing that work, which puts them at risk for seeking help if they end up in danger or at risk of harm, and makes them unable to access legal retribution in the event that they are assaulted or abused Like if you disagree, that's fair enough, but I do not particularly want to hear your half baked opinions and the feeble attempts to disprove these things, so just keep it to yourself alexandriao has a new favorite as of 09:37 on May 22, 2022 |

So are we staying that no one should have to work if they don’t want to? Because I like that idea, but that ain’t how the world works right now. Or probably ever. That’s some Star Trek levels of fiction there.

Maybe there'd be people who didn't want to work at all and who had no desire to be useful or productive. And they'd probably have no friends and be miserable, because no matter how you structure society you can't force people to like each other.

A good burger is beef and a bun. Nothing else. If you're using lower quality meat patty melt type things or beef sandwiches are fine. But stuff like bacon and sauces can ruin good burgers.

I like a little grainy mustard but no ketchup. The special sauce at places like In N Out is revoltingly sweet and disgusts me. Same with orange chicken at Panda Express.

I can vibe with a bit of mustard on the bun. I think ketchup is the biggest offender though. Big fan of mayo or ketchup with fries though.

Kind of. The batteries are still big enough that it makes them look kind of weird to fit it. The Leaf is probably the best car when you factor in price and I think the assist mode is probably what most people want as opposed to self-drive (which I think is cool but seems to turn a lot of people off).
