Make Love, Not Porn

Fascinating video (NSFW) from Cindy Gallop at L2’s Generation Next Forum about the ubiquity of hard-core porn amongst Gen Y (and below) … and how the point is not about Porn=Evil-That-Must-Be-Suppressed (a fool’s errand) but how to deal with (providing a counter-point to) what porn is teaching young folks about what’s “expected” in human sexuality.

Thought-provoking, disturbing, and entertaining stuff.

  Thank you for putting this out there. While I’ve got fairly liberal views regarding porn from a civil liberties (and prurient) perspective, I also have an 11-year-old daughter, who will be dealing with some of the attitudes and mis-education you describe.

German industrialists and captains of industry didn't like, let alone trust, Hitler. But they worked with him because he was the guy in charge, they figured they could control him, and it gave them an advantage over their peers who didn't.

They eventually learned who was managing whom. But by then it was too late.

Racist MAGA idiots ranting

Four *decades* ago, I was working with my company's HR to track race among job applicants. Because you know great way to show you are being racist in your hiring efforts? By documenting a racially diverse applicant and hiring pool.

Remarkably, you can even do that even while accomplishing your mission statement, just like you can provide insurance, or remove snow from walkways.

Suggesting LAFD's #DEI program has killed people is (typically) disgusting.

The GOP won't cut Medicare and Social Security...

... but other programs are on the chopping block.
... but qualifications will be made stricter.
... but they won't be increased, either.
... until #Donald decides they should.

I saw someone make a reference to this, and #Greenland, and, especially, the whole #GulfOfMexico / #GulfOfAmerica thing, calling it "Performative Imperialism": #Trump gets most of what he wants (donations, accolades) through sheer bullying bluster or acts that cost him nothing.

#Trump 's spitballing about #Canada is just that: random bloviating that (a) irritates his opponents, (b) excites his knee-jerk supporters, (c) costs him nothing, (d) lets him bully people, and (e) holds the prospect of, should some infernal twist of fate cause it to happen, making him famous for something other than his criminal record.

There's also probably some hidden way it makes him money, too. Like selling signed USA+Canada maps to the yokels for US$ 250 a pop.

Californians who were trying to follow up on an Amber Alert issued by the CHP were blocked when it turned out the CHP alert linked to the agency's #Xitter account for full details, and to see the alert people would need to sign into Xitter.

Completely predictable, if infuriating. Public agencies depending on #ElonMusk 's Xitter platform are doing the public a disservice.

TIL The name "Dante" (as in the guy who wrote "Inferno" etc.) is short for "Durante," meaning "enduring", "lasting," or "durable."

A low-key New Years Eve this year at our house -- fewer people over than usual, and a lot of fatigue and low spirits, not to mention an utter lack of good expectations for 2025.

Hoping the reality turns out less dire than the fear.

"'GO TO HELL!' #Trump tells inmates with commuted sentences in #Christmas Day post"

Weird.

Also dishonest.

And very much un-Christmas. But, then, #MAGA is post-Christian.

#Trump makes it clear that SCOTUS should bow to his will... even before he's inaugurated.

"President Trump alone possesses the consummate deal-making expertise, the electoral mandate and the political will to negotiate a resolution"

Pretty sure none of those are mentioned in the Constitution as reasons for the Supreme Court to change their rulings.

One reason I love my wife is that she puts up with me saying "Hey, we've been watching a lot of 'Murder, She Wrote' reruns lately, let's do a William Windom tribute night of ST TOS 'The Doomsday Machine' and this show you've never heard of called 'My World and Welcome To It' " and then actually doing it.

The views expressed by me on this weblog are mine alone and do not necessarily reflect the views of my employer, my church, my party, my candidate, my community, my wife, my friends, or, on occasion, myself.

Views expressed by others are, well, theirs. I reserve the right to delete them, but it’s usually better to let the marketplace of ideas hold sway, even if some packages are long past their expiry date.

Stuff I link to? Sometimes it’s because I agree with it. Sometimes because I disagree with it, but want to point (mockingly, in some cases) to my sources regardless; I have a liberal arts background; I believe in citations. And linking to stuff is what the Internet is about.
