Texas Bill Prohibiting Male Masturbation Moves Closer To Becoming Law
DZhukovin comments on May 7, 2018:
This is a level of authoritarianism that I don't understand at all. Whoever is supporting this bill should be indicted. Yes, masturbation is largely stupid but that doesn't imply a total ban.
DZhukovin replies on May 12, 2018:
@hemingwaykitten I agree that we largely agree :) Leave it up to the Republicans to keep doing the same thing over and over. If the more extreme ones had their way (and they tend to find a way to make this happen. The extremists are more likely the most vigorous), then we'd live in the serf system, rather than the system before that where if you wanted to be free, all you'd have to do is say "I'm free". Major important differences, there.
How can WE end rape? Rape being a human issue.
Omen6Actual comments on May 11, 2018:
Also, rape isn't about sexuality per sé. It's about dominance.
DZhukovin replies on May 11, 2018:
No, it's about ruining a person's life. It's an act of mental and/or physical mutilation. Dominance is just dominance.

Beatnik comments on May 11, 2018:
DNA database for everyone is a bad idea. Especially with crooked government and law enfircement. I expect ACLU would object. Stop rape where it begins. The shaming of sex and nudity. The sexualization and objectification of the human body. People aren't born rapists, society creates them.
DZhukovin replies on May 11, 2018:
@McVinegar Not really. I absolutely accept a very wide array of types of people. Such a program has to be implemented with time, because such ideas can be translated into violent, chicaning programs. Note that I never said to hurt or mess with anyone, I was simply saying what I was saying.

DZhukovin replies on May 11, 2018:
To be honest, I am hoping the DNA database draws a firm line between people who are naturally prone to scumbaggery like cheating, back-stabbing, lying, manipulation, violence, property damage, etc.and people who are of real value, so workplaces and such social spheres are much more functional and positive. Maybe not having to deal with the unintelligent will also be nice, but it would be a point of contention as to who will do the more manual labor. I find that many more physical jobs simply contain people who are more visually rather than verbally oriented. They can be of equal or greater intelligence than the people in the verbal jobs, but will not earn as high of a salary.

DZhukovin replies on May 11, 2018:
@Hebert54 Let me be more clear. I am under the impression that "masturbation" refers to an individual doing it by his or herself, and I think that is where my error came from. I assumed everyone here is more likely to be individualistic, so I went with that interpretation. Now, let's talk about the implications of masturbation for the male case, since I have done more reading in that. In the male case, vital compounds like vitamin A, amino acids, anti-depressant compounds, testosterone, and such are depleted, but periodic ejaculation is necessary for health because of the problem of "blue balls", and what tends to follow. If a person is taking a purely verbal perspective on this, and not also thinking about the visual and realistic implications, it is easy to be wrong on this issue. In the female case, it's not effectively much different. Women will still lose vital compounds doing this.

DZhukovin replies on May 11, 2018:
@hemingwaykitten I think both you and I would agree that abortion is an issue left to medical staff that can assess the viability of an abortion, since they are the more qualified party. Personally, I think it is better to have the restriction that if the fetus has not reached the stage where it can suffer, which is often in the first trimester. Statistics here sort of break down when it comes to individual nuance, and that is why abortions have to be thought of on a case by case basis-yes, the general case may be defective, here, but that is the state of STEM in the US, sadly. Now, is this the only facet I have considered? No. Abortion is one of the oldest topics in my country, and it has come up all too many times. Personally, I don't worry about any responsible and capable people doing anything, and my beliefs on social controls reflect that. It's usually people who, by at least one means, are compromised, that will actually create problems, so that would include the instance of an abortion.

DZhukovin comments on May 8, 2018:
This is a loaded question. Why should I assume that I have the means and knowledge to decide who rightfully lives or dies?
DZhukovin replies on May 10, 2018:
@TheMiddleWay Okay. The moral choice is to not kill anyone and just look away or something. Let's be real, here. This is a "damned if I do, damned if I don't" scenario. So by excluding one's self from the scenario, his hands are clean. Think about it. You could reason that morality is subjective, and get nowhere. You could reason that it's more moral to have less people killed (which is really just a stupid collectivist argument). You could reason that the individual is more important (which is what another species of unintelligent people think). In truth, a person may not know what type of people he is killing. Some types are naturally more essential to society and civilization, but that judgement may not necessarily be evident at the time. So a person can alternatively kill either party, granted that it is worth less than the other, but otherwise it's best not to pretend one can actually know such things and just stay out of the scenario.

DZhukovin replies on May 8, 2018:
Yes, cortisol is one of the highly insulting components to stress. It's a terrible reaction to have. The body's only real way of keeping cortisol flushes from happening is through a strong hormonal environment that works with one's natural physiology. So in men, testosterone keeps cortisol out of the body, and in women, it's estrogen.

@BlueWave The risk is that one's meal may or may not replace those compounds. The body has to be thought of as an economic system. When one resource gets lowered, the whole system gets affected.

@TheAstroChuck "Momentary" refers to the motion of things. Basically every object has a moment of force, which is a form and strength of an inertial vector required for that object to leave the resting position. So a person who is momentarily conscious is thinking mechanically, which is essential to Physics. Now you know what the phrase means.

I don't think your issue is in your lack of expertise in politics, it's your lack of expertise in language. Trump is the U.S. President as of 4/25/2018, 8:15 P.M., Eastern time zone. So yes, he is your damned president.
DZhukovin replies on Apr 26, 2018:
@mssuzieq550 That's funny, I don't remember even speaking on your intelligence. Was the word "intelligence" even used? No. I don't think it was. Anyway, the notion that the position of POTUS is an actual leadership position is a presumption that is not supportable with any direct references, so I am sorry, but I deflect your statements, because all they do is create problems.

DZhukovin replies on Apr 26, 2018:
@Dingodog "I don't understand your ast couple of sentences. What is your definition of Type-conflict? And why, of all your civic privileges and responsibilities Woul you let what ever that is prevent you from votingt? I don't get it. Please elaborate." Type conflict is the conflict that arises between types of people that naturally bother each other. This kind of conflict becomes worse when the parties involved are not lucid enough to understand that they have instructions they must follow, or some other duty. I did not vote because I did not have the time to do the necessary decision making. If I had ended up picking a bad candidate, I would have been very, very pissed off. At the time, I was studying a lot, working, doing chores, etc. Political theater kind of kills my brain cells, and I never seem to get a use for it. Reading about political theory, philosophy, policy, etc. and such are very different. My mind can gravitate to those things.

He got some of my support because of his stated intentions on his campaign website. I had a large preference for other candidates as well, like Ben Carson, Hillary, Bernie, Gary Johnson, Paul Ryan, and some others, but I think I was very caught up in buzzwords and other memes as well. I didn't vote because of type-conflict with people who typically get the most riled up about politics.

DZhukovin replies on Apr 25, 2018:
@Mortal I agree, but you sound a little miffed, and have to calm down. You have to understand that these old rich and posh Southerners you're talking about are: 1. Living in a very hot climate 2. Are Southern Baptist, or some other religion made of troll messages 3. Have to live around some pretty horrible looking scenery. 4. Have to deal with pollution. 5. Have to deal with hearing the same old things about the South over and over. 6. Are probably not from the very good parts of the South like Texas, Virginia, some parts of Georgia, some parts of Florida, North Carolina, and other areas that are very well put together. 7. Don't even study Kabbalah, the Vedas or anything of real spiritual magnitude. 8. Don't actually study anything rigorous 9. Are surrounded by guns and all the other dark Southern scenery while they have to sleep 10. Can face serious problems if they dissent 11. Have a mental illness that involves fantasizing about effective slavery in the Feudal era 12. Are being brought up on noxious substances like high fructose corn syrup, white bread, opiates, alcohol, etc. Now, is it possible that some Southern politicians have made some seriously retarded calls? Absolutely. Every time a Southern region has rejected a good idea or sensibility, they took the piss for it, because they were too compromised or corrupt in the mind to comprehend what was being communicated. These days, I am trying to update my knowledge on human analysis, to get a bigger and more effective perspective on who Southerners are, and disseminate their types better. Some types have been extremely positive assets as company and such, and other types were exactly like you described: complete demons from hell.

@Deb57 Yes, obviously, but that has nothing to do with anything. When she started writing Harry Potter, she had no money, and had to write the stories on bits of napkin in a coffee shop. But the bottom line is, she's not qualified to say what people should do, and she should stick within her knowledge base, and proficiency. It's easy to think of a person who is indiscriminately generous as compassionate, but not everyone receives kindness with responsibility. For example, why is it that when someone gives money to a junkie, that they just buy more drugs, versus when someone gives money to a college student, it goes towards tuition? This is one of the many problems with giving things to people for free!
Who came up with this ridiculous idea that one cannot prove a negative!?

DZhukovin replies on Apr 23, 2018:
@Josephine No, I'm sorry, humor does not conflate with non-humor, and I don't intend on wasting the value of a joke on someone who acts like a cockroach. Anyway, try to not attack things you don't like. You may assume that other people have the responsibility of looking after your state of mind, but everyone likely already has a job(s), children, friends, etc. of their own. This notion of "other people should observe my preferences" is not only fantasy, but it is simply stupid for its lack of knowledge.

There is a cool backstory to this one. I started off with some random simple geometric shapes, then kept interpolating with different filters in my pixel editor. The result? A resembling map of Northwestern Europe. I was astonished at the closeless of some of the lines, and I really do wonder how my mind comes up with things sometimes.
