it’s more about a plot device, so any attempt at destroying it anywhere else is bound to fail. alternative, launch it into space like the Voyager,

is there something useful that can be done with just ONE unbreakable spring?

Not sure if it is useful for measurement standards, as it is seen changing size based on the wielder.

which could be use for stuff. big finger person puts something inside, hand it to someone with smaller fingers, and it has unlimited crushing force.

the question is, with only ONE of those rings, is there something useful to be done?

Question, if I have an unbreakable ring, what cool things could an engineer do with that?

one does not simply ICBM into Mordor.

Also. we can easily create temperatures far exiding mount Doom’s lava.

appreciate your honest response to my joke answer.

but as someone who despises hierarchies, I rather view all forms of life, from worms to humans to possible gods. as all worth and valid forms of existing. non to be looked down on.

gives me the vibe of a parent seeing a construction worker and telling their son “that’s the reason you should go to college”. each one’s life’s is as rich, complicated and worthy of basic respect as each other.

considering other life forms “lower” implies a sense of karmic supremacy. reflect on that to improve your karma and practice better dahrma

state murdering people ≠ violence.

people complaining that the state is murdering them = violence.

my Boomer opinion: there are only 151 Pokemon, the rest are mental illnesses

yes, but that was a response to consent in sex, and not being ok with it, isn’t the same category as “third party not consented to sex” which implies rape".

tell that to the user whom I replied that.

"I think the term “cheating” inherently means that the person not involved isn’t fine with it. "

isn’t fine with it had zilth to do with consent.

we agree that cheating in a monogamous relationship is a shitty thing to do. but it isn’t a lack of consent issue.

sex without consent is rape. and having an affair with a consenting individual, despite being a shitty thing to do, isn’t rape. not even in the same ballpark of shitty.

then we’re getting stuck on something we agree on.

you said that the problem in cheating is that the third party didn’t consent. no one needs a third party consent for sex,

i won’t disagree about it being a violation of a the relationships boundaries.

but if your monogamous partner has consentual sex with someone else, you can get upset, but that doesn’t mean he raped you by having sex without your consent.

ok, so? They aren’t the ones having sex in the affair, although it’s a violation if her relationship expectations, a partner doesn’t need to consent for other people’s sex. she isn’t in bed with them.

still a shitty thing to do, but people going to have sex do not need third party consent from people who aren’t in the room.

although in this case, it seems like it wasn’t an affair but sexual harassment. so this hypothetical conversation isn’t relevant.

this opinion isn’t from the Poly community, I’m doing relationship anarchy with a few partners. and so far it has been fulfilling for me and my partners. no one in with needs my consent for their own relationships, but they have my blessings.

don’t care if my partner cheats on me, let them have fun. but cheating on me with AI!!!? hell no.

that’s what I mean.

he’s been over sanitized and turned into a saint of sorts.

His teachings were always political, we just sanitized it to be about pure abstract stuff.

just frustrated they teach Socrates as if he was the founder of philosophy while completely ignoring the effects of his theories in practice. They teach Socrates but never mention the 30tyrants, they teach the trial, but not the actual crime he was accused and found guilty of. Socrates didn’t just talk about being philosophically humble, but against democracy and progress like reading and writing.
