  • I know it’s not an everyone and everywhere thing. Just a general statement about the overall society and its culture. With the US’s GDP the citizens could have a much higher quality of life than really anywhere else but they generally choose to have a very low quality of life dedicated to work. I’ve known people who haven’t taken a holiday in years or would complain that if they ever took more than two weeks they would be hurting their career. It’s depressing to watch the people who have the most cosplay living in a much poorer nation. Also yes I’m aware that the wealth is primarily in the hands of the unelected american royalty but I thought the second amendment was there to prevent that circumstance. Governments are meant to protect and serve their citizens and citizens must ensure the government is doing so.










  • Not saying you’re wrong but I don’t see the point in letting the population collapse. It will just bounce back later and probably be far greater assuming humans don’t go extinct before achieving sufficient space travel and colonies. That is also assuming we’re the only ones here and this isn’t like a controlled demolition of the human species by some other entity or force.


  • I mean the probability isn’t in our favor. As for us, yeah it doesn’t change much. Same for a lot of epistemological arguments. Last Thursdayism, Descartes demon, Plato’s cave, Chung Tzu’s butterfly, solipsism, Boltzmann brains could all be bang on right on the money. I see you’re taking the more so physical reality approach, even then if something like the holographic universe or some variation is correct then maybe distance doesn’t exist like we think it does. If for instance we’re in a black hole then there’s a one to one representation of all information here in what we consider 3D space on the black hole’s surface.

    All the fun ideas aside I agree with you although maybe our definitions of fun may be different. That is I think the first goal is to reduce needless and avoidable suffering for all minds anywhere in existence whenever possible. Like even if it is a simulation of sorts or reality just started ten seconds ago or what I’m experiencing is a Boltzmann brain it still doesn’t stop the first goal from at least being the best goal I’ve found so far.


  • You got a lot of life and exploration ahead of you. Go slowly and safely, communication is key and you will be fine. I would suggest consulting with a gynecologist though. Also to answer your question.

    Only about 18% of women report reaching orgasm from vaginal penetration without any additional clitoral stimulation.

    Roughly 36% of women can orgasm during penetration if their clitoris is stimulated at the same time.

    Up to 80% of women require clitoral stimulation (either alone or combined with penetration) as their most reliable route to orgasm.
