Wait, so are the things we suspected true?

[–] DishaweslemOride@lemmy.org 46 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Well, which things? Also, probably yes.

He did NOT have sexual relations with this woman. She only gave him blowjobs.

[–] 87Six@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago

Fucking what? True? Yes he said they're probably fucking true, fuck

Ugh, I've always hated the two axis alignment system ever since I actually played a real game of tabletop instead of the baldur's gate / icewind dale stuff. Still, it is humorous how well it matches the lovely repugnants.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 months ago (4 children)

"Evil" is just a shitty term and/or axis.

Everyone is the hero of their own story. Almost nobody thinks of themselves as evil. Often the most evil acts are the ones done by people who have convinced themselves that what they're doing is for the best. Take the Great Leap Forward in China or other similar disasters. Tens of millions of people dying because the leader thought they had identified the true problem.

I'd much prefer a "selfishness" or "size of group that matters" axis. On one side of that axis you'd have tree-hugging environmentalists who think every life matters and are willing to make personal sacrifices to make a better world for people they've never met and never will meet. On the other side you'd have selfish people who want what's best for themselves and are willing to make their close family members suffer if they personally can benefit. Somewhere in the middle are people like NIMBYs who agree access to affordable housing is important, but don't want a tall building going up in their neighbourhood because it will ruin its character.

This can also lead to "dark paladins" that make sense. Instead of an evil paladin crusading on behalf of evil, you get a very selfless paladin who is willing to put his life on the line for a cause he believes in. It's just that that cause conflicts with the belief system of the adventurer's party.

That's just what good and evil are, though?

Like, Good is you're willing to sacrifice some of you're for the benefits of others, Evil is you're willing to sacrifice some of others' for benefits of yourself?

Evil people only don't think of themselves as evil because they have internalized that "evil" is a bad thing. But that what makes you evil, they often even openly admit to.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

No, evil is wanting to hurt other people as a goal in itself. That doesn't really exist much in reality.

In reality, most people who do things that hurt other people are doing it to help themselves, or to help their family, or to help their community, or to help their company or to help their country. They aren't deliberately hurting other people for the joy of seeing that pain. Instead they ignore what happens to the wider group while focusing on the narrower group they care about.

For example, I would consider the executives at tobacco companies to be evil. Their product hurts lots of people. But, they're not people who sit in an office decorated with skulls, cackling to themselves about how many people have died from smoking. Instead they've managed to convince themselves that they're doing things that are beneficial to shareholders, and that help tobacco farmers, and so on.

You can tear AD&D2e rules out my cold, dead hands 😆

Tbf, the reworked versions are better.

I'm CN, btw.

[–] NannerBanner@literature.cafe 3 points 2 months ago

Clinging to THAC0

I'm CN

I'm sure you are.

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Same, but I'm really just stubborn and spent too many years playing AD&D2 and creating PC games that used those rules.

[–] altkey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 18 points 2 months ago

These friends are worse than enemies.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh, you don't remember how she was attacking Charlie Kirk until roughly 30 minutes after he bled out from his "finding out" phase. Then suddenly she was tearfully mourning her lost maga love.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago

told by her handlers ti stop with the attack likely.

[–] corbindallas@fedinsfw.app 9 points 2 months ago

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 4 points 2 months ago

What makes you think assholes aren’t going to be assholes to other assholes? It’s kinda their brand.

[–] DagwoodIII@piefed.social 55 points 2 months ago (1 children)

She slept her way to the middle.

[–] ClownStatue@piefed.social 7 points 2 months ago

I feel like the middle is quite an achievement for someone like her.

[–] GreenShimada@lemmy.world 53 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Not that we didn't know he was nasty, but can you imagine letting that plastic space alien face anywhere near your genitals? Holy shit.

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 66 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I gotta think she’s getting the worse end of the deal here. I can’t imagine the dude who regularly shits himself has a great deal of personal hygiene.

[–] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

He's got the kind of attitude of "if you can't see it, it doesn't need to be cleaned"

[–] OwOarchist@pawb.social 14 points 2 months ago

And he hasn't seen anything south of his belly button for decades now.

[–] NannerBanner@literature.cafe 7 points 2 months ago

I would wonder... I know plenty of very nasty individuals who were, by all guesstimates, still engaging in sexual activities. There is an incredible ability of humans to do nasty things for later reward.

Either she made 'cleaning' part of the pre-warm up phase, or the whole 'disgust sense is lowered when sexually aroused' thing kicked in AND she was just imagining the dollar signs to get her over the hump. Perhaps both. Add in some drugs and I'm sure she could get herself to a place where it was possible.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Yeah this just feels like a really apt metaphor for hell. For both of them. The constant pursuit of power and wealth and what do you get to show for it? A woman who looks way worse and no happier after lots of plastic surgery going down on a man whose mind has been consumed by anger and can't control his bowels.

[–] new_world_odor@lemmy.world 37 points 2 months ago (2 children)

She actually looked like a normal, good looking human before the mar-a-lago plastic treatment she got. He likes the alien look, it reflects how inhuman he himself is.

[–] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 months ago

She has the Purge mask look now.

For me, it's the opposite that's horrific.

The thought of anyone having their face that close to Donald's naked 80 year-old body. Barf.

But he's a dog and we know he isn't fucking Melania, so it only makes sense. It's not like she brings anything else to the Administration other than being a concubine.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago (2 children)

On second thought, she probably has to dig for his peepee. Dude is seriously corpulent.

[–] psycho_driver@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Starting to get that Men In Black alien in a human suit look to him.

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

That is a good analogy.

[–] NummyYum@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Dig for his peepee. Like a button on a fur coat.

[–] JigglySackles@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

It's like a baby bird in a dirty nest!

That’s the weirdest part of the whole thing. I’m not shocked she was blowing Trump. But Jesus, I hated telling my dad when I was pregnant even though I was married, because it meant admitting to him that I had sex.

[–] NannerBanner@literature.cafe 16 points 2 months ago

I wonder if it was less 'bragging' and more 'throwing it in his face.' I can't imagine most people in those circles having good relationships with family.

[–] nkat2112@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

I found this very curious also.

[–] mimavox@piefed.social 33 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I didn't need those images in my head.

[–] crandlecan@mander.xyz 15 points 2 months ago

Speak for yourself!

unzips

[–] Fmstrat@lemmy.world 19 points 2 months ago

I mean, that has nothing to do with why she lost, and wasn't part of the case, but for those wondering, yes if appears to be true he said that, though the source seems to be a substack author.

Enjoy what's left of the rule of law while you can. Soon enough, any lawsuit by a Republican elite will sail to a win.

[–] Nalivai@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

No, I think American public lost harder
