A Palestinian infant died from the cold on Thursday as heavy rain across the Gaza Strip continued for a second day, flooding tented encampments and roads.Eight-month-old Rahaf Abu Jazar died in Khan Younis after rainwater leaked into her family’s tent during overnight storms.
Her family was among hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians awoken in the night as torrential downpours inundated the makeshift shelters they rely on for protection.
Gaza’s war-damaged sewage system also overflowed under the heavy rain.
“We are drowning in rainwater mixed with sewage,” said Amal Eleiwa from Gaza City.

People harp on Onlyfans, but how sexualized and “softcore teasing” Insta and even TikTok are kinda creeps me out. They’re literally entry points to OF.
I have a parent who’s blissfully off of social media, and it was interesting to see their reaction to what they’re like now.

Guess i think human beings should not sell their bodies. Strange right?

in reply to bennypr0fane • • •Serious answer: Humans are not meant to sell their bodies. They are meant to do physical work, of course.
If you cant see the difference, maybe a good example is if this was your daughter. Would you think selling her body is the same as working as a waitress? If yes, you are missing something inside.

in reply to 1984 • • •If you don't like sex work then that's totally fine, don't do sex work, but there's a large market for it and plenty of people willing to fulfil that demand. Even if you don't like it, it's important to destigmatize it to make the lives of sex workers safer through legal protection, health care, etc. As far as sex work goes, onlyfans can be much better than the traditional porn industry because channels can be run independently, which reduces the risk of exploitation and human trafficking.
Sex work should be completely consentual and safe, and destigmatization and legal protections can help make that happen.

in reply to piguyisme • • •Im surprised anyone can like it. Its obviously wrong, morally, spiritually, emotionally, as a human being.
People are doing it anyway of course. Because a lot of people are broken in this world. And there is a market for it, of course. Its still wrong. We are not here to serve the market with our bodies. Lol.
If you think its fine, you are missing something inside. It really is that simple. And then you rationalize it with lots of market arguments or protection arguments, because you dont mind people selling their bodies. Even try to make it seem like a normal profession for humans to do.
A lot of people, like yourself, wants to believe they are good humans while doing bad things. So they rationalize it the way you do above. But you know the truth. You are just not capable of understanding why its wrong. Because that part is missing.

in reply to 1984 • • •Says who? Morals and the emotional reaction to this job are subjective, "as a human being" makes no sense at all, and fuck all the way off with your spirituality bullshit.
I would assume that they mainly do it because, like most people on earth, they live in capitalist hell and need money to survive. And just like most other professions, they sell their bodies, so what? Sometimes not even that, OF models or cam girls often just sell pictures or videos of their bodies, what makes that job any different than that of models or actors?
What would that be?
Well, I know that the prudishness part in me is missing, and I'm glad it is.
You're not capable of understanding why it's not wrong at all. Take your own advice, find that missing part inside of you, whatever the fuck that is.

in reply to piguyisme • • •If sex work is consensual, why does money have to be involved?
Although I don't really have a problem with temporarily increasing regulations on the already existing sex work markets, it is fundamentally coercive and should be phased out by providing welfare and rehabilitation for sex workers and eliminating the capitalist forces that drive people to it.

in reply to 1984 • • •they aren't but they all do anyway, me and you included. if i had a daughter living well from sex work, i'd be happy for her over having a minimum wage job that doesn't afford a decent life.
i'm not morally opposed to sex work, much grosser jobs to have. like cop, or lawyer.

in reply to 1984 • • •Equally serious (and just a bit more deranged of an answer):
Humans are not meant to do work. Physical or otherwise. This slavery thing where everyone, regardless of race, gender, orientation (and almost even age) we have going on is just degrading and nonsensical.
Humans should live in tightly-knit families and tribes. Of course, the woman should do the simpler housework like cleaning, cooking and tidying, while the father should do the more manual stuff like fixing things, growing plants, keeping animals and hunting.
Women should likewise be seperated from books because they are more likely ro succumb to the words of the devil. I'm sorry, but that's just how it is. Therefore men must educate their heirs (male, of course), while the wife should teach her daughters how to domthe chores.
If you can't see how exposing a frail woman to the harsh reality of being the man of the house, try thinking of your own daughter.

in reply to unwarlikeExtortion • • •Humans have worked since we appeared on the planet but yes, I agree that our current society is full of completely meaningless jobs and we are a debt slave planet.
Your most interesting comment was about women and how they should be separated from books. I guess you have that view because of a religious background, or?
I do believe we have a lot of words from the devil in our society today. Im not religious in that way, but I absolutely see how some people, maybe most, dont have basic morals and dont care how they treat other people online, where its easy to be your worst without consequences.
There is a spiritual war ongoing right now in my opinion.
