Its consciousness, not conscience. Conscience is specifically one's moral awareness.

Also its closer to 4 billion years.

That said, I understand her anger about stupid people. And people who slut shame can die in a fire.

*consciousness. Conscience is a different thing.

Wish someone sent me a d*ck pic...

Best I can do is a dik-dik

I have seen this before, it is a repost from years ago.

I remember, because it was particullary irritating seeing a scientist harrassed.

[โ€“] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 7 points 8 hours ago

What a shame, when there's so many opportunities for an opening pun relating to her bioreactor or engaging in heat dissipation.

Talk about low hanging fruit...

[โ€“] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 6 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Her vocabulary is intimidating.

[โ€“] DisgruntledGorillaGang@reddthat.com 5 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

The only thing intimidating was saponification, which was the point of dropping that word. Otherwise the rest was mundane.

[โ€“] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 2 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

No, saponification sounds like it's tasty.

Mmm....

It's not though, it's the conversion of a fat into a soap.

After that blistering, Matt Gaetz won't be using that account again.

Meanwhile I try to get to know someone on an app who messaged me first and all I get are two word replies... Dating apps are trash.

[โ€“] FluidBeef@quokk.au 57 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Why do men do this? Even when I was young and clueless I knew this would not work, and that also women talk to each other.

this would not work

You assume the goal is to actually try to date or fuck. It's not. The goal is to intimidate and degrade, to make someone else uncomfortable. So viewed through that lens, it works.

[โ€“] Tiresia@slrpnk.net 47 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

The goal isn't what you assume it is. You're projecting your own goals and concerns onto those men.

My guess would be exhibitionism. They get sexual gratification from acting sexually towards women regardless of how those women feel about it. As for women talking to each other, that's less of a risk on dating apps, and even irl it has never been decent at preventing sexual offenders from having plenty of victims.

I asked my man slut roommate (no shame, all sluts rock, all kind people rock) a while back, how he gets all these girls with this behavior?

He said, โ€œI just cast a wiiiiide net and the ones that respond are downโ€

Beautiful and simple explanation. Just like he was, to clarify, above average beauty, and =< average smarts. Pretty good guy overall. I donโ€™t recall he was a dick to rejection just moved along to the one that accepted.

[โ€“] Soup@lemmy.world 8 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

But was he sending unsolicited dick pics or just saying hi? Because if it was the first one I got some news for you, and that news would be about him not being a good guy just because you didnโ€™t have any problems.

If he was just saying hiโ€ฆwhy did you respond to a comment about specifically unsolicited dick pics?

[โ€“] CentipedeFarrier@piefed.social 11 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago) (1 children)

So often the real thing is other men don't know how objectifying and creepy their womanizing friends are, because they arenโ€™t the target. They don't see the behavior, often because they don't want to, so its easy to ignore.

[โ€“] Soup@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

This is where I just donโ€™t get it. Like, as a hevaily privileged dude, I just donโ€™t see how you can watch something like this and not go โ€œwow, that was wildly inappropriate.โ€

[โ€“] Janx@piefed.social 11 points 19 hours ago

This makes me think of womanizing Boomhauer from King of the Hill. His "secret" is to just hit on basically every single woman he sees, lol...

Wait, wait wait!

You can't just drop the fact of working polymer heat dissipation and not go deeper

๐Ÿฅต๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ I love a woman who can talk nerdy to me.

Then again Iโ€™m incapable of sending a dick pick and wouldn't if I could because I respect that brain mmmmmm brain.
