i think my little dog is dying -.- shes almost sixteen and keeps throwing up this dark brown sludge. were taking her in to the vet soon

i hope this taste hypersensitivity thing lasts till dinner time. i'm getting thai! however it might be a bad thing, i ate my favorite chocolate and the bitterness was quite jarring (it's milk chocolate)

all sex exclusively based on sexual desire is bad, but so is sex based exclusively on desire for offspring. theyre both selfish.

mormonism is weirder than you think https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_Follet_discourse https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam%E2%80%93God_doctrine

android has sucked so much developer and user attention away from true linux phones and projects like postmarket and sailfish

the same sister also claimed recently she "has nothing to hide" and when i told her that she's not the one who determines what is hideable, whatever regime is in power determines that, she was like "well i guess if they start rounding us up again..."

@scathach@stereophonic.space @ug@brain.worm.pink this is the "if it didnt make my genitals feel good, i wouldnt be having it" argument. the necessary condition is not a sufficient condition. i think its true that sex that feels bad in any way including physically means it should not be undergone typically, just like food that tastes bad shouldnt be eaten. but the involvement of the senses doesnt mean that one cant have sex for a higher purpose, or that sex doesnt have this higher purpose. theres a huge difference between making someone feel good through sex because you love them, and making someone feel good through sex because it makes one feel physical pleasure as well. when i say sex should be an expression of love, not a way of getting pleasure, that doesnt mean one should express love by doing things to someone they DONT like! thats silly! just like the point of kissing isnt to make your mouth feel good, the point of sex isnt to make your penis feel good. why is one easy for people to understand, and not the other? anyway, sexual intercourse is just one form of physical intimacy, and just one form of expressing love. of the forms of expressing love, it is not a necessary one, and not the best one, either. since indulgence of the senses is involved in having sex, people who are truly desireless usually stop having sex. the Buddha stopped having sex after he was liberated. when i talk about the purpose of sex being prema, that doenst mean sex is necessary for prema or that sex is close to the best way to develop or show prema. anyway, kama is an important part of life for most people. most people arent nishkama karma yogins.

is there anything more quintessentially leftist than brutal infighting and purges

what does the fediverse think of pesto

@ug@brain.worm.pink the point of sex is not kama, its prema. enjoyment from sex should be derived from love, not from pleasure. love is selfless, pleasure is always self-interested.

I said something about landlords being inherently parasitic to my aunt thinking shed be a receptive audience because of being poor and having left-wing politics and a history of activism but she objected that there are good landlords

@paula8@netzsphaere.xyz i know this actually. its compared to intoxication, and alcohol is haram. so, only religious music is allowed.

said suya, moved from the puter to the phone -_-

thank you for brightening my evening, northern ghost bat diclidurus albus

the notion that anything is eternal except God is quite fanciful. even the delights of heaven end, but Brahman never changes

@sun@shitposter.world basically viewing it as a very happy land up above where you reunite with your dead relatives and jesus is there too. whereas jesus emphasized that no one has a husband or wife in heaven

most christians seem to have a very superficial and unbiblical view of heaven thats much more mundane than the real thing

@sun@shitposter.world housing is extremely hard for most people to afford these days not because they aren't performing worthy work, but because wages havent increased with the housing market. wages havent increased imo mostly because shareholder value go up is seen as the supreme good. for instances my aunt I mentioned performs valuable work, shes a good teacher in underperforming communities, but shell likely never be able to afford a house.

@N33R@fops.cloud holy shit

@kaia@pleroma.soykaf.com do they like it, I'm getting the commodore callback in a week

@kaia@pleroma.soykaf.com @monkey@brain.worm.pink got one too!

fucked up that macos tahoe doesnt have keyboard shortcuts to start applications despite it having a really complicated scriptable shortcut system

and xkill and whatever kdes version is called

@lizzie@brain.worm.pink it will forever be minetest in my heart

is luanti even made with lua

@lizzie@brain.worm.pink oh I didnt know that heaven was considered unity with God. see, I consider unity with God to mean the ultimate unity- aka becoming Brahman

@xrisk@brain.worm.pink even more reason for me to learn lua. i looked it up and it does work

can't believe my papa died

@ug@brain.worm.pink love without concern for self-interest

@gwmma@blahaj.zone looks like the japanesey asahi linux logo

why yes i fucking love chaucer. in fact england should've stayed catholic. or gone full quaker, one of the two.

@xrisk@brain.worm.pink oh this is even better. i'll download it

@anemone@ebiverse.social does it look as nice as the default

i am so tired

i have a very newbish question. i'm trying to add application repositories on fedora and to download the rpms in them without installing the appimage, snap, tarball, apt, etc. basically the rpm is much smaller than the appimage so i want to add the repository for this app. i'd rather deal with a host of sources and have a native package than a flatpak. heres an example of a package where i want to add the rpm (without just installing the most recent one in a way it wont be updated when the system updates) https://github.com/readest/readest

@Saorsa@neondystopia.world same thing as kdesu, launches a gtk app with root permissions

@ug@brain.worm.pink by selfish I dont mean one person desires something the other doesnt, I mean one person wants something in return. motivated by self-interest, not by pure love.

gmail is holding my fucking account hostage by making me use my old phone number to set up email forwarding. -.-

@anemone@ebiverse.social @Saorsa@neondystopia.world I dont like liquid glass tbh

and i only want one more shortcut. one to launch macos terminal

@sun@shitposter.world youre right but I think its a great majority. such a stark position of power over someone as being able to directly render them homeless often results in abuse of this power. with other services provided if you do a bad job they can go elsewhere, its much more difficult with a shitty landlord.
