there is also a subset of people who do not have sex unless an emotional connection is forged over time - that totally makes sense to me, there is a term but i forget it atm

I by no means even get a half chub by looking at dicks
me neither! what a ridiculous piece of flessshhhh, as Robin Williams once said. I like what they're attached to, and at that point they're fun to do stuff with.

asexuality is very real and otm does not get recognition (or is lumped in w incel). one of the downsides of the sex positive movement is the ignoring of this subset.

I have a married friend who fears he may be asexual and he brought it up while we were out one night. it was clear others at the table didn't have much experience or knowledge regarding the subject (which tbf, I don't either) as they tried to reassure him that he was probably experiencing a temporary weakened libido, rather than trying to understand why he felt that he was asexual. so he changed subjects when he realized nobody at the table understood what he was saying.

i've thought about hanging out with "ace" folks from time to time but i don't feel much of a drive to join a group where the only commonality is a shared personal disinterest in a certain activity.

On another topic, for any crime greater than simple assault and less than public mass murder, the US justice system gets the wrong result far more often than it gets the right one. This is true for everything from apprehending and convicting the correct perpetrator to proper sentencing.

well a great deal of those cases are resolved via plea bargain resulting in a lesser sentence

Probably most people who are charged with crimes they did ought not be convicted of them, both by the letter of the law and as a matter of justice.

Re: asexuality/queerness, people need to get over the idea that penetrative sex is the only type of intimacy that matters.

Western civilization was built by white men for white men, and its attendant systems of 'justice' are simply a means of alleviating the need for constant force in maintaining those parameters.</trenchant>
(By complete coincidence, 'The Funky Western Civilization' just popped up on my iPod while I was typing. Resonant.)

'Beyond a reasonable doubt' is weird.
― Leaghaidh am brón an t-anam bochd (dowd), Wednesday, 1 August 2018 22:10 (five years ago) link
it is, but what could replace it that would be less weird and say what is required to convict? Doubts can be manufactured out of spider silk and a puff of smoke, but they are on such an attenuated basis that they are not reasonable. You could say "plausible", but that word is too abstruse for most jurors to understand and would not really add any value not contained in "reasonable".

Lots of asexuals, really. It's a not uncommon long-term side effect of antidepressants, even after discontinuation. Fortunately for the pharma co's, we'll never get out of our murk to start a class action.
― Roomba with an attitude (Sanpaku), Saturday, 4 August 2018 02:21 (five years ago) link
Yeah, I kind of consider myself asexual. Lots of that is antidepressants for 15yrs, but even before that I was never really a sexual person. It's not something I'd describe myself as, but if pushed, I guess.

Most people have nothing to say. They beak off about random bullshit but it ends up as nothing. If you’re saying something to effect change for a group that needs it, good for you. But most people I’ve heard spit up vile banalities and wait for friends to go “ok”. We are out of touch in the western world, even a 30 K salary a year trumps the wages of someone in the east. Yet we bitch endlessly about how our peanut butter farfait wasn’t big enough or there was two few croutons in our kale salad from whole foods for 20Bucks. We’re lost. Insert witty Ilx comeback here B
