"I'm only willing to help if we're pulling in a perfect condition ship that has a dream cabin hand crafted for each of us. Yes I know this ship will never exist, but I stand by my statement"

Yeah, that's true, but super fucked that women get the innocence of children and men are assumed to be not innocent in any situation.

Life is harsh when you're a guy.

They're mad at you because you made jokes of a serious issue that only exists because the US is a dumb pace where guns have more rights than kids. If it were anywhere else it would just be an edgy joke. In the US it's like dressing up in an SS uniform to a Holocaust convention.... A little too edgy...

Yeah. I had a dad that didn't get laid too. Sex is in the bottom layers of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, then intimacy is up higher as well. If you're not getting these things you're not going to be able to hide them. Your kids won't know why until they're much older WHY your not happy, but that is a sadness of the soul that nothing can hide.

You ever see one of your friends the day after they get laid and you just know. That's a kind of joy from having your needs met that you can't fake.

You're teaching your kids it's OK with someone who doesn't meet your needs. It's not.

Be with someone who makes you happy. Let your wife do the same. Show your kids what a happy marriage and happy parents look like so they can model their relationships that way. Don't continue the cycle.

It's better to show your kids what is like to be happy and have your needs met than to show them being miserable and setling. Especially on their behalf.

Which would you rather for your kids?

Which are you showing your kids by example?

I'm not sure there are people so unrecoverable that they need a lifetime in solitary. I'm fact I'm not sure how you pass the cruel and unusual criteria with that. Even in super max prisons for people who WANT to go out and kill strangers for example, they are able to regularly socialize and exercise and have mental stimulation. So no I don't think there are a lot of people where spending extra money to kill them would be "more humane". Seems more like a straw man/hypothetical than a practical reality.

Well it always costs more, in the US Justice system, to execute someone than to keep them in prison for life. So that alone throws out the utilitarian approach. We're all paying extra just to kill him now than if we just kept him locked up for life because he might be a direct threat to everyone and not be rehabilitated.

Jury nullification isn't a real thing. It's not a law in any country, it's a "loophole" that springs out from some simple concepts.

1. You have a right to a trial by a jury of your peers, jurors are protected from consequences related to their deliberation and decisions.
2. If found "not guilty" the state cannot retry you for the same crime.

Both of those things are important to avoid tyranny in the judicial system.

What that means is that if, for any reason, the jury decides to find you "not guilty" even against their "jury instructions" or the law itself, you're off the hook forever. This concept is called "jury nullification" but it's not a law or "feature" of the justice system. In fact most of the time it's been used for very unjust outcomes, for example juries often refused to find people who perpetrated lynchings guilty because a "jury of your peers" in many states was racist AF!

That being said I LOVE to see it used to refuse unjust laws!

That's when he realised he liked the buzzing!

I'm feeling a sudden urge to vote Harris Walz right now

It's not about the people who are undecided between Kamala and Trump. It's about the people who are undecided between Kamala and not voting at all.

It's not about the undecided. You'd have to have brain worms to be undecided when Trump is an option. Undecided right now is like choosing between a stale pile of dog shit and fast food and justifying it by saying "well fast food is pretty shitty".

It's about getting people to VOTE. People who don't usually vote need to get out and vote. That's it. That's what's going to make the difference. Kamala has to mobilise reluctant voters.

You can't even make real improvements until you accept who you are. Trying to improve without accepting your current situation creates a self improvement debt that'll catch up to you and undermine your work.

Is insulting an investment and real estate fair illegal in France? Like the cops aren't even pretending they did this for a credible crime!

ACAB in every country man.

The comment about your wife is related to his comments about you beating him and breaking his arm. He's decided you're abusive and are part of the reason his childhood was so messed up. It probably helps him cope with a few things. For example he doesn't feel guilty when he abuses you or your mom's hospitality or generosity because you owe him. Anyways he decided that you're abusive and so you probably beat up your wife worse than he does. It's self protective, if you're worse than him (he assaulted his wife and you kill yours) then he can still be a good guy in his own mind by comparison.

He sounds pretty fucked up honestly, and his coping mechanisms are maladaptive. If you want to help him, reach out occasionally to let him know you're there. Don't give him money or things or a place to stay. He doesn't see you as a role model, he sees you as someone who owes him Infinity for what you've done, meaning he can abuse you in significant ways and it's all fair in his mind. You owe him for what you did.

If he ever realises that he's the problem in his life, and that to make his life better he needs to BE better, only then can you help him.

You can't help someone be better if they don't want to be better.

I made this to commemorate your first date with your husband, will you marry me and wear this on your finger forever?

It's literally this from anywhere but America

Dude that's not even close to the most insane part. They expect one in every 8 humans on the whole earth to play EVERY DAY.

No, most religions encourage people to practice stewardship when they're generally going to benefit more from destroying the world around them for their benefit.

For example, before semi modern times you could generally gain more from cheating and stealing even as a peasant. But society needed everyone to be good to eachother and society itself in order to progress.

That's the main purpose of religion. That's why most popular religions tell people they'll get an eternal reward later if they live this life unselfishly.

I think it's desktop only, but I rarely use the mobile brave app.
