  • The doorway/wall thickness is a perspective issue, you can see it looks much thicker in the reflection off of the shower door, and there may or may not be a door visible, I can’t tell.

    As for the rest, I’m not following. If the doorway is a mirror, why don’t you see any of the bathroom in it? If anything, the reflection off of the shower door make it more likely that the doorway is actually a door way. Or am I misunderstanding what you think is a mirror?







  • which reinforces the idea that sex is a competitive event that a man has to develop his skills at in order to be allowed admission, rather than a collaborative activity for the enjoyment of both partners

    This is a false dichotomy, because, based on the conversations I’ve been party to with my friend group (which includes a number of aggressively poly women), a lack of skill can and will make it harder to gain admission. Lack of skill can make it unenjoyable for the other party, which can absolutely gate your admission.

    One of my casual partners in my friend group will semi-regularly reference a former short-term partner who was rather well endowed but didn’t know how to use the equipment he had. Lack of skill is what caused her to drop the partner, and I’ve heard similar conversations with other AFAB friends.



  • Capitalism has the opposite problem. If there are no rules surrounding what industry is allowed to do, they will always choose the most profitable thing.

    That’s a lot of words to say that capitalism fails because the systems that manage it are corruptible.

    It’s not at all the opposite problem, it’s just a different flavor of the same one. Capital infests the bodies that govern it to remove regulations that limit what capital can do, leading to the problems you mention. Not sure why you think the two situations are at all different.


  • I went camping, came home and put them in a safe place while I unpacked.

    I have not seen my car keys in a year. Thank the gods my wife has the spare, otherwise I’d be in a world of hurt.

    …especially because I also set down my replacement car keys at one point, and they decided to run off with the first set…
