I don't really understand that t-shirt. What does he mean by it? That when he's in public, he's cold, arrogant, and slightly off-putting? And when he has sex, he likes to murder his partners and bathe in their fresh warm blood?

I think he's implying that Vulcans lack sexual passion or the capacity for warfare, ignoring the Vulcan tradition of killing competing suitors as part of pon'farr, and the fact that Klingons never conquered either Vulcan or Romulus. He also implies that Klingons lack the ability to think logically and scientifically, ignoring their invention of plasma physics, faster than light travel, and molecular replication and teleportation.

In short, he's a dumb racist towards fictional races, taking minor cultural differences and blowing them up to stereotypes.

Don't feel like watching the video for context, I just like to remind people that tribbles are merciless, voracious, predatory omnivores who destroy entire ecosystems using harmless-seeming vocalizations to mesmerize their prey before devouring them alive and reproducing expotentially.

If tribbles could bite they'd be one of the most horrifying fictional monsters. They were a biological threat of apocalyptic proportions in most of their screen appearances. They're the sci-fi equivalent of corpse rats. That must add something to the subtext here.

Yep, tribbles are Appalachians all right.

7... what's 7??? WHATS 7??!?

7) Don't take Ambien and post on PoETV, because even if you're not completely fucking bonkers and scrawling omnious notes to yourself like "cut off MLK toes--FORCE CONFESSION" on hotel stationary, you get woozy pretty quick, and PoE has the editing capabilities of a cuniform tablet.

8) Wealthy people tend to take many basic amenities for granted, whereas people living in poorer areas tend to be more grateful for whatever they have. To remedy this, we should be sure to constantly be a nagging, self-righteous, ideological polemicist that politicizes everything, which is exactly what a starving Somali orphan would want us to do.

I think their lack of historical perspective causes this phenomenon. They think they're the first to acknowledge it since no one who came before bothered to do anything about it, and have yet to see that they too will never do anything about it. Once they realize the worst of humanity is an absolute, and the best of humanity is a delusional fiction, all will be made clear and they will shut up about it. On most days I shut up about it.

This dude is a solid zero so anything alive is too good for him.

Even beautiful models look tired and weird in the morning before they put their various powders and cremes and glosses on. If he had actually ever lived with a woman that put on makeup he might know this. This just ends up being an act of misogyny as grotesque as much of the porn itself.

He didn't think this through.

1) there is no such thing as a porn star anymore with tube sites
2) if there was a point to make about manufactured beauty, porn is probably not your area, as it's not quite the standard bearer of that subject
3) 2 also lends itself to masturbation and sex in general, cause even though we live in a sex saturated environment, you can have too much or too little of it, making the subject of fapping better left to someone cute like Laci Green than a bearded fellow in a word shirt
4) he own goaled the end there when he made the porn stars responsible for misleading men because they're actually ugly, when he should have maybe elaborated on the concept of beauty instead
5)











jk there is no 5. I'm not exactly keen on makeup, largely because males aren't judged for not wearing it like women are (and from there why should girls wear it anyway), but if someone wants to look a certain way that's their right. This guy's heart is in the right place-ish, but if he wanted to take aim at this particular problem, it may have been better to assert the fact that women don't need to be judged by their looks in general. Everyone's looks change as they get older, so it might be better to emphasize other values of attraction, if we were to move forward in this conversation.

Oh right, and there are no unattractive women in this video via standard, that's why the makeup works.

Which is weird, because with their makeup on, those pornstars look so stunningly beautiful that they become the other side of ugly: I only want have sex with them. Without their makeup on, most of them are still beautiful, but I'd want to talk to them. Well, maybe the ones without obvious herpes lesions, anyway.

Which leads to another point: only women think that women need makeup. Guys really don't give much of a shit and it's mostly just there for women to intimidate other women, just like designer brands.

I like to think that he would be redeemable if someone took the time to educate him.

I don't have any evidence for this, but it's a belief I'll cling to all the same.
