This is the stupidest **** storm since we circumcised Chula in the News Story thread.

I do agree that a certain amount of self-preservation and fiscal responsibility is crucial to being able to get by in certain industries, especially the sex industry and porn industry... but the fact is these industries prey on people who might not realize what they're getting into. I'm not saying people who do porn are inherently victims or anything like that but the friend I'm talking about basically got into porn because the agency that picked her up offered to pay for her implants, hormonal treatments, and laser surgeries to remove facial (and body) hair. She wound up catching STIs because the agency was careless about testing, refused to continue performing, subsequently lost the means to her treatments (and not enough money afterwards to continue them) and wound up being really messed up both physically and mentally.

I think this is a great thread for people to say what they really think about others here and not get called out for it. I don't think this is a great thread for drawn out ****storms that have absolutely no positive contributions to this place.

I'm getting kinda sick of having to reiterate this endlessly without receiving a response.

EDIT: Never mind.

Fortunately it doesn't happen often. I'd say the percentage of time that users are all here in this thread not talking about music is both miniscule compared to the average, and also completely avoidable. You being here now is kind of a nail in your own coffin.

Over the years, I've seen this thread behave a certain kind of way. Most times, it's people giving praise to others. Every once in a while, someone comes in here and says something someone else doesn't like. That's when the sh*t storm starts. I have demonstrated that myself on multiple occasions. The truth of the matter is that people view this thread as a self-congratulatory depot. Everyone wants to be praised, and everyone wants to be praised for praising. It's not what this thread is meant for, albeit the tendency of human nature even on the internet.

When there are moments of people having a negative opinion, that's when this thread actually becomes valuable. Most people don't know it because they can't see past their own ego. I pity them, but I understand. It's just unfortunate, is all.

I say all that to say, if you're not here to speak or hear opinion, uh, stay out of the thread. This is not something worth convening a consortium over.

i knew some people get offended at saying tranny myself but it feels like people keep making new rules and i'm honestly tired of having to follow them all. i really do resent this politically correct world you california breed are constructing. the whole thing seems so fake and devoid of any actual humanity.

Actually it's not really a new rule at all nor is it fake nor is it devoid of any actual humanity. It's a very sensitive word to some people. Maybe you don't understand because you've never had a car full of intimidating dudes follow you around and yell "HEY TRANNY!" but if you did you might have some clue as to why the word might draw up some negative feelings in people.

Yeah I didn't get responces either, but it's whatever I wasn't initially part of the conversation so I wasn't expecting anything back.

Can we get back to regular ****ting on each other rather than fight about this kind of thing AGAIN.
