My message to him as a straight guy:

It is fine to be bi. Suck dick if you like it. Enjoy!

Honestly it is embarrassing. Fucking over a literal hero because he is gay???

Being corrected on a German industry norm, how does that feel? A little ironic, maybe?

Also imagine paying a creator of the media that you consume and not a platform which scams an agency which scams the creator.

How horrible…

Honestly people are fucking weird. What is wrong with actually supporting the creator?

These posts are motivating

I want to help you understand the situation and why people say what they say. Then you can better judge the situation for yourself and make your own decisions.

Situation “your own house”: You want to buy a house but you don’t have the money because… Wtf is the housing market??? 100k for a cardboard box??? So you lent money from your bank to pay for the house. With interest, you pay maybe e.g. 70% more than what you lent. And it takes you 30 years to do so. You might lose your job and have to save a little extra to cover those times and maybe the bank let’s you miss a payment once. After 30 years, you have now a house that needs some repairs but you got more money in your wallet because you are done paying the bank. So you do some repairs and it cost you money, maybe you need a small loan again. Eventually, you are retired and you have less money but you don’t have to repair your house anymore. Sure, there are some issues but the heater will manage another 10 years. You don’t have to worry too much because you don’t have to maintain it after your death. You don’t need to save for a new roof in 5 years when you are 95yo. You can make the call that you don’t care.

So in other words, you pay a little less than 70% more than the value of the house and afterwards you paid for YOUR UTILITY. Every repair was between you and future you.

Situation “I rent to you”: I am buying the house and of course, I am lent the money as it is financially easier and in some places, gives me tax cuts. I buy a house and I too pay 70% interest on it. I need to get the money to pay for my loan. I am not a asshole but also not a saint. So what is pretty fair? Mhm… You, as my renter, pay my loan back! If i ask less, I am literally losing money. But wait, you might move out at any time and I need to pay my loan, so I am asking a little extra… Just in case. But then there are repairs and someone needs to pay for those, so maybe a little extra. Okay now, you are paying for everything! I am safe and sound. After 30 years, you paid back my loan and I own the place. I am getting old and I let my son take care of the business. He takes good care of the house and makes sure that all the repairs are done. He is earning so extra money too as well the loan is paid back. He is looking for a new house for all his children and a big nice garden. With his day job and your rent, his bank gives him a big amount of money that he spends on a beautiful house, he gets the house as he has the cash. You are getting older and you retire, but your rent is not going down. If you could have bought the house 50 years ago, it would have been yours, but it isn’t and you are paying the new loan of my son. The heater could use a replacement in the next 10 years but you really don’t have the money for that but it isn’t your decision, my son wants to rent out the house another 50years if possible. My son feels forced to look for a new renter as you don’t have the money to pay for the new loan and the repairs. He kicks you out. You are homeless. You pay off the loan and some of another loan but you are homeless.

Now that story wasn’t even about actively trying to make money but not wanting to take a risk for someone else.

Most landlords want to make some money.

Honestly I don’t get the OF hate in general. We all have watched porn and we probably liked at least some of what we have seen. What is wrong about earning a living with producing what other people want and like? And as I don’t think, we argue about people consuming porn but about paying for it, what the fuck is wrong with paying the content creator? Why do we prefer paying agencies with ad revenue while the agency effectively scams their talent? Why no ads but cash? Why agency and not talent?

Jealousy.

That is the good kind of conditional love; condition is “love yourself and work towards a better tomorrow”

I don’t know, I kinda like the implication that Nazis aren’t homo sapiens. And while being “homo” is certainly not bad, something tells me that Nazis wouldn’t enjoy being called a “Homo Nazi”.

Never donate if you don’t have the money. You can put a imaginary bill in an imaginary jar and turn those imaginary bills in real ones once you get better off.

Thanks for caring but care for yourself first.

Why aren’t they doing anything?

I wished they won’t do shit. But in reality, they actively harm young people in their attempt of buying a home. E.g. I don’t know if it is something that exists in the us but in Europe there are plenty of countries with laws to protect old buildings but most of the time these laws are flawed as fuck and result in less affordable housing for people who want to live somewhere and cheaper real estate for big fraudulent dickheads who want to build new rental buildings

It isn’t about it being a loan. It is about attention, care and respect. That is why I wrote favor/attention. You won’t be friends with someone who doesn’t in any way show you that they care/respect you.

Edit: just to be very clear, the gift is an example of you expressing care, in my example. It is not necessarily a gift, it could be helping them move, or anything else that expresses some level of care.

You don’t expect me to care for you, so you are probably not upset when I don’t hold open the door for you when you are 4 steps behind me. But if your friend would do the same (assuming that they know you are there) you could take it negatively.

I think you are missing the point. I am not saying it wasn’t. But if you makes a gift for your friend’s birthday, and they don’t bother at all to return the favor/attention, would you be upset as you would think it is kinda a dick move?

Taking without giving is always viewed negatively in social settings.

Maybe “taking advantage of” is wrong but then again, it is a dick move anyway.

People love to hate on Firefox for the weirdest reasons.

I wonder if they are so used to chrome that they want to shit talk Firefox to excuse their chrome usage to themselves.

Facebook be like: “don’t worry! I will not print off your COMPUTER! it will be the printer muhahahahaa”

Honestly I don’t think anyone who is happy with their sex life is invested in how other people’s sex life is.

Looking at the homophobic crowd.

Great meme. Good protest.

Musk’s PISS. I mean LLM or Ai.

PISS is the correct term though. If you want to read up on PISS
