I fear as the number n of the repeated day approaches infinity, any day would be horrible to have to relive again. And again. And again.

If your approach at dating hasn't materialized in anything, perhaps it is time to change your approach. For me, the best things happened when I wasn't trying at all. Be social, be courteous, be nice - and as the owner of a penis: non-threatening.

You have self identified a problem of anxiety. If your next step is to criticize all "females" as being difficult in terms of dating, you're missing a beat here and making a bad word choice. The problem may be more of a you-problem than a them-problem. Also, no matter the primary sexual organ situation, people can pick up on both an air of entitlement or the scent of desperation.

Also, all cicadas shout for sex but not every cicada gets laid.

If there is no checking in place, like an airport security check and/or check for devices emitting radio waves. Also, the producers know where the candidates are at, don't they? If they spot regular drone flights in the area, I think the game will be up as well.

I mean by normal people standards, you are correct. He's had to replace a golden spoon up his royal posterior with a silver one. But he still lives in a big house and will never want for money in his life. His involvement did cost him his representative job. He's been royally demoted. So there were consequences for him although I'd be the first to agree they weren't sufficiently punitive.

I think you can trust the operational side of it. I don't think they've had many detrimental oopsies, the services work. I used them for a year and then jumped ship. One reason is the favorable comments by their CEO about the 47 administration, which I didn't like. Another reason is the nitty gritty - they don't clearly advertize what's part of what package and I felt that was by design to get you to upgrade. And they definitely see themselves as a basket for all of your eggs. If you are moving there because you want to degoogle your life you end up just protonizing it. It's better to spread around your stuff so you're not dependent on one provider. If you just want a good VPN and don't care about the rest of their services and the politics, you could make worse choices.

Now i'm torn. On the one hand I want to dismiss your counter argument as a counter factual and therefore there is no need to even glance at it. On the other hand, the omnipotent dick is part of the equation and he can control these things and I kinda see where you're coming from. I would say he is being more of a d though because he is rubbing Picard's nose in how unprepared humanity is in the stars. The fact that his finger snapping detour shortened the encounter timeline with the Borgs may have had the one positive effect: forewarning for the feds. And that may have put them in a position to win by the skin of their teeth. So your counter argument holds some limited and not massive amount of water.

Q is just a dick. He could've brought Voyager back home but didn't and then involved Janeway in that continuufederacy civil war. He exposed Picard and crew to the Borgs and didn't lift a finger when he got Locutussed. I think in terms of dead people he may have screwed Picard over more. I may be wrong but I think more people died in that cross section being cut out by the Borgs as a direct result of Q finger snapping the D out to meet them. But at the core, he just does stuff because he's a bored omnipotent dick and he makes everyone in his path suffer.

In my house, I have a no dumping on the couch rule. If you come in and take a dump on my couch, I don't care how insightful your thoughts are, you're out the door. In terms of the fediverse, you merely seem confused about what constitutes taking a dump. These rules are available though, you just have to read them.

If you have spare time while developing your Don Quiote complex, give a passing thought to what censorship means. Nobody is banning you from having your super intellectual thoughts about government on the internet. Start a blog, your own lemmy instance, and fire away. But nobody has to listen to your thoughts; we're free to go seek out other bullshit if we so please. That's not censorship, that's how the free exchange of ideas works. You don't have the right to be heard on your terms in somebody else's forum. And who knows, maybe modding your own would teach you a level of empathy that might make you feel embarrassed about your comments on this thread.

There is no accounting for taste.

They are the epitome of the adage that their earlier stuff was better. For me, they jumped the shark when Roman Catholic bells were ringing.

And those folks aren't on here because they already do their socializing in person. A frightful thought.

Florida Man strikes again.
