How do you weigh in on the Vance-couch conversation?

This, if he’d done it, would be perfectly okay.

Vance didn’t, or that’s the story. And honestly, I believe it. He’s a bit too uptight for that sort of thing.

But what if he had? Why are we shaming him for this? Why would we shame anyone for this?

Why should the US public listen to Lauren Boebert, the queen of hypocrisy tell us, "We need morals back in our nation" when her real-time video is the heartbeat of immoral? Why does her audio not match her video?

We need to stop shaming people for healthy activities they do in the privacy of their own homes.

Masturbation isn’t bad. It provides most of the benefits of sex, many of which actively improve human health, with zero risk of disease or pregnancy. It is an objectively good thing that most of us ought to do more often. Not for pleasure, though pleasure is also good, but for our health.

Creativity is also good, especially as the story would cause no harm to the couch and didn’t involve any direct contact with it. There’s no ick factor here, just a young person having fun in a way that doesn’t harm or impose upon anyone else.

How do you handle family members who ask for handouts?

It’s a creative form of masturbation that may feel pretty darn good.

I don’t see what’s wrong with banging couches.
