Can you share something that captivates you, whether it's an idea, a discovery, or an invention?

Pornography is still alive and not illegal for two reasons:

There is no legitimate reason to make it illegal.

Finally, “oh wow I want to protect the wimmens all the poor poor wimmens” ah HA ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha no you heckin’ don’t.

Is it common for girlfriends to have close male friends who are single and not related to them?

Here’s a neat mental exercise:

That’s not a coincidence.
