A 15 year old cannot drive, vote, work, or live alone. They cant join the military. They cant be out past 10PM without an adult here.
And you, an adult man, want to have sex with them? Your desire is for POWER over them. That is all. They are defenseless. Powerless. They are children.

And people can do all the whatboutism all they want about this. To me and I suspect most outside observers, it sounds nuts.
Get rid of all the child rapists and their close associates. If a party can't do that? It is part of the problem.

Hey so โunderage girlsโ areโฆchildren. The word youโre looking for is children. Theyโre not like, women-in-waiting or women-lite or whatever. Theyโre children. I think some of you are very uncomfortable with what that means for you but it is still true.

Full-color image of the Cathedral of Barcelona, composed on a typewriter by Montserrat Alberich Escardรญvol. Image from WikiMedia.
Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardรญvol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

@edzitron.com love the pod!
but... can you perchance get the levels closer btw the podcast proper and the intro/outro music?
in particular when you have guests, Better Offline is dangerous for my ears if i listen with headphones b/c the music is so much louder than the voices.

can anyone explain (or point me to something that explains) the origins of anti-beard sentiment?
not just in the military but in a broader historical context?
gonna do my own searching too but maybe someone knows already?

podcast addict has a solid search function which can be set to search for either "podcasts," "episodes," or "people."
the first two are useful for exactly what they sound like. the third is an absolute wildcard.
most recently used the second to find some old ta-nehisi coates conversations.

gonna sound stereotypical here but when i buy gear-type-stuff i almost always go patagonia. they replace &/or repair when needed & are good w returns & exchanges. they also sell quality used gear.
used to have lotsa variety wrt "how warm" for long underwear but i have not needed to replace in years

1. would love to adopt these boys but we cannot at this point.
2. cats are honestly some of my best jiu-jitsu teachers/inspirations. tight elbows, good frames, always using 4 limbs & head control. adjusting technique&position for the environment. full grasp of leverage&space. also true playfulness!
