Much love for these teachers. They are not paid nearly enough. I hate the corporate pizza party, but not the public school one.

Edit: I wonder if the difference in financial burden between a corporate pizza party and a public school one is a good metric

I'm sure inflation has affected that too

With other industries, owning 5, 10, 15 other sites might be indicative of a monopoly. But there is a metric fuckton of porn online.

Edit: pardon me, a *metric fucktonne

Can you define what part of PornHub owning a lot of other porn sites makes them a monopoly? Part of being a monopoly is being anticompetitive. What has PornHub done in terms of lobbying or other anticompetitive practices which makes it more difficult for a new company sharing porn to take hold? Because there is a ton of porn online which is unrelated to PornHub.

I'm all for calling out monopolies, but I legit don't see one here. I'm open to being wrong.

I don't believe that the thing about actresses getting work after 22 is reliant on PornHub. Porn has worked that way for 50+ years my dude.

"Every other site", obvs, it's right there in the comment. You mean you're not uploading your driver's license to watch someone get railed?!

OP's claim here is just BS. PornHub is in no way a monopoly or even close. It reads like someone who has literally never searched for porn on the internet. Astroturf.

Yeah, well that's the thing: they like the idea of being against government regulations, but if it is presented to them as a moral issue, they eat it up.

Case in point: a comment in this thread loosely trying to pose PH's response as being against states' rights -- in this case, due to the states tacitly regulating morality. I'm sure if the issue was e.g. raising state taxes, all of a sudden states' rights wouldn't matter.

The right wing learned a while ago that if you can pose anything as morality, there is a whole class of people that will simply lick the boot.

Unfortunately they'll go after that next.

I'm legitimately surprised at the number of pro-government control comments in this thread, though. We are truly doomed because of the people in the back.

I've never, ever seen anyone lick boots harder than this.

This has generally been my experience as well. The sole exception: Distant Worlds. I've never, ever gotten it to run with any version of Proton.

The controller, yes. The display itself, no, as far as I can tell.
