Well played. You win. This round.

[–] Fungah@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

No problem.

I'll add one other thing: Others have mentioned couples therapy. This is a great idea. Even if the relationship is already over, worst case scenario is they both gain some insight into their own toxic behavioural patterns to make their next relationship better.

That's why I set up a tent around the seat for me and whoever I go with. If anyone questions the noises I just yell " squatters rights!" and start kicking.

I do think it would be more difficult ting if it was a sinister tetrahedron, the most evil of shapes.

But whatever you do, please don't boycott Deez nuts.

"yes" is the most dangerous word in the English language.

Hotter take: ban religion completely outside of religious facilities and private dwellings.

No iconography, no discussion, nothing. You can go into your temple and do whatever stupid shit you want, you can aid the poor if you want, but everything to do with your religion stays behind closed doors.

Amen.

Nobody takes issue with the idea that people can't own people. Until they're in a relationship and they start thinking of their partner as their property.

The insecurity around the all-or-nothing nature of monogamy creates all of the problems in monogamy.

Plus: orgies. Like. What's the point of living without orgies?

Sex with one person, forever, no group sex, incessant discussions around fidelity driven by insecurity, gee, where do I sign up?

No one teaches you how to have a relationship. So people just kind of default into patterns that are often toxic.

It's why taking a step back and being deliberate about how to communicate is so important. There needs to be a shared understanding and deliberateness about how to intentionally communicate.

And it needs to be something that applies equally to everyone involved. No copouts, no special circumstances that only go one way, there need to be firm, hard rules with specific consequences that apply evenly to all involved that are arrived at communally, and not unilaterally.
