In English, it has to be any of the Contronyms. We have so many, and it really makes it hard for newer speakers to understand some things.

You dust a cake by adding powder, you dust a table by removing powder.
You seed a field by adding seeds, you seed a fruit by removing the seeds.

Relationships and conversations require both sides to put in effort, or else they die.

You say you know that they will be there when you need it, but are you sure? It doesn’t sound like you’re giving them what they need.

The only thing there that I use is Battle.net.

This might not be helpful, but I found that installing it through Lutris worked for me. Systems and OSs are different, so it may not work for you.

Use your computer to do the things you want, and if you need to use Windows to do it, use Windows to do it.

This isn’t really a question, but a very thinly veiled accusation.

Maybe post this somewhere that it belongs.

I think it’s because they usually mean “Shut up, I don’t care what you’re thinking about, just be pretty.”

The mine + yours thing is intimate. You are experiencing the same thing at the same time, while being somewhat vulnerable to the other participant.

Looking into someone’s eyes
Holding someone’s hand
Kissing someone’s lips
Frotting

Smelling someone’s nose doesn’t quite feel like it would fit the list.

Non-gendered wording isn’t exclusive to English, it’s mostly other European languages that stick to doing that.

There are some languages that don’t even have different words for “he” and “she”.

Edit: made the wording less asshole-y

That is the point

Cattle farming isn’t profitable?

And when he kills them for profit, you can play with their organs, making puppets out of Every. Single. One.

Yet, you only streamed because you needed to pay rent, or didn’t you?

It’s pretty fun to having guys go on and on about how big/suckable your dick is and how much they want you to fuck them. If I was single I’d probably do it again, even without being paid.

Also, I did not propose immediately anything that would threaten the activity in the way you practiced it

When you responded to @SlothMama@lemmy.world, you said that you were against all porn.

To be clear, I’m reading your response as against porn in all forms and for all audiences based on your wording, is that what you mean?

Yes.

I was showing one of the many examples of being in the sex industry, without any abuse and without it being “paid rape” as you put it. You didn’t say “some”, “a lot”, or even “most”. You simply generalized all sex work as harmful to the worker/performer.

My problem with pornography is the reality of it as well as the reality of prostitution in general. The porn industry is the home of abuse, in every sense. First in the rawest sense, the physical and mental abuse that actresses go through; second in the reproduction and propagation of the culture of abuse, considering that it is the most recurrent theme in porn films; third in the economic sense, pornography, like prostitution in general, is the sale of consent: the actress or prostitute receives money to have sex with someone she would not have sex with under other circumstances, in short: paid rape.

I paid rent using a webcam years ago, and I am not sure that your points really apply to all porn/sex-work. I am not denying that it doesn’t apply to some of it though.

Men paid me to chat with them, let them watch me jerk off, and sometimes watch them watch me jerk off. I was probably going to jerk off anyway, and knowing what I was so attractive that people would pay me to see me do it was a turn on.

The first instance of Lemmy is lemmy.ml

The ML stands for Marxist-Leninists

It wasn’t until he got comfortable enough with his partner that when she saw him

Unless it’s your kink, most people don’t use the toilet in front of their spouse.

Edit: It sounds like a lot of straight people expel waste in front of their partners.
