          I’m guessing he thought it was a fancy term for slaves. Which is wrong in a lot of ways, but also just weird…

          It’s the best read of it I can manage though…

          Or doesn’t know the meaning of concubines.

          I don’t know the meaning of that word either, but based on context I assume it’s because I’m not into any sketchy shit.

              Oh…yeah, I was thinking it was much darker. It sounds like some kind of metalic tub that you put children in to rape them in the fields of Alaska at an oil rig job.

              At least with mistress’s and partners consent is a key factor.

                In several countries, and absolutely historically, it’s actually been a government-classified relationship status.

                It just means people involved in a romantic and sexual relationship who are unwilling or unable to legally marry for whatever reason (because they are already married, because they aren’t legally qualified, such as one member is from a slave caste, etc)

          I bet he was being polite and he actually wanted to write “you would be my bitches”. Not polite, MAGA polite.

      You’re right. It doesn’t make logical sense.

      Oh, I meant you. You just tried to read a tweet where a republican just admitted to being a pedo, and your first instinct was to try to follow the logic.

      That corse of action doesn’t make logical sense!

        Legally? No. Morally? If I knew someone was attracted to an adult they thought looked like a child, I’d never allow them near my child.

          Doesn’t seem like quite that long ago that grown-ass men were counting the hours until the Olsen twins turned 18.

          Not sure if a double-standard, or a change in the times.

            Sex has always been a double standard. Just look at teacher cases. Hot adult woman sexes teenage boy? Trumpets! Hot adult man sexes teenage girl? We must carefully decide the order of torture so he doesn’t die too fast!

          Technically no, but he considers the specific men in the picture to be boys so is still claiming a preference for boys in general.

      Words have meanings. “Gay for” would be an acceptable attraction. Children cannot Consent [There is a power imbalance which cannot be reconciled] to a relationship with an Adult. Please dont do their work for them by mincing words: There’s nothing predatory abour being gay, and thats’s what this bigot is, a predator.

      It’s because kids these days don’t smoke cigarettes. They really do make you look older.

      Vapes and pouches just don’t do it the same. You need the tar.

        You know, that actually makes a little sense. I smoked and I looked a bit more… worn when I was 18.

        There’s been a general decline in recorded testosterone levels since the mid 20th. Other hormonal changes are purported as stemming from plastics, which we’re now just beginning to discover.

        I think these are the culprits as to why people are starting to look younger. When a guy is juicing at the gym for a while he can start to look 80s old. Idk.

        I’m a school bus driver and a lot of my colleagues smoke. The ones in their 40s and 50s look 70+ and they’re just so … leathery. The ones older than that look like zombies.

          My God…how do you drive around in a school bus as a smoker and not smoke for the entire route. That’s gotta be one of the most stressful jobs around, right up there with bomb squad technician. The shit you guys have to deal with.

          As a parent of two kids…one loud and high-energy, the other a prime target for bullying…I appreciate what you do.

          Also, I have 9 chickens and they are awesome. I keep wanting to take one to the bus stop on my shoulder like a pirate.

            Funny you should mention that - a lot of them have taken up vaping and they vape on the fucking buses. At least they only do it in between runs (as far as I know) and not with actual kids aboard. This shit pisses me off almost as much as when they talk on their phones while driving, and surprise surprise it’s the same shitty people doing both things (and they’re all trump supporters too).

            As a parent of two kids…one loud and high-energy, the other a prime target for bullying…I appreciate what you do.

            I appreciate your appreciation, but we do get paid for it. It’s a pretty soft gig for just driving a big Tonka truck around.

        You made me think of Dennis Quaid’s speech in Breaking Away.

        You know, I used to think I was a really great quarterback in high school. Still think so, too. Can’t even bring myself to light a cigarette ‘cause I keep thinkin’ I gotta stay in shape. You know what really gets me, though? I mean, here I am, I gotta live in this stinkin’ town, and I gotta read in the newspapers about some hot-shot kid, new star of the college team. Every year, it’s gonna be a new one. Every year it’s never gonna be me. I’m just gonna be Mike. Twenty year-old Mike. Thirty year-old Mike. Old, mean old man Mike. These college kids out here - they’re never gonna get old or out of shape ‘cause new ones come along every year. And they’re gonna keep calling us ‘Cutters’. To them, it’s just a dirty word. To me, it’s just somethin’ else I never got a chance to be.

        You’re not wrong. Back in the day people would work younger and longer and more outdoorsy jobs and have more exterior day time entertainment.

        Now a days people work more indoors and do more indoor activities and also just have better general skin care. Younger peoples skin just looks better now than it did back in the day for the same aged people.

      I’m 40 going on 60, (thanks Iraq), and I can no longer tell the difference between a high school kid and a college kid. I’ve decided everyone below 25 is a kid, but I recognize it would be ridiculous to make that the age of majority.

    Why does the existence or not of social media seem to be the thing that’s tempering his apparent desire to rape young fellas en masse? I mean, I’m happy that something is tempering his sexual brutality, but it’s still pretty strange that it’s social media. It would be like me saying I would be out there murdering media studies students with a machete if it weren’t for the existence of VCR instruction manuals.

    And how is this some kind of rebuttal to “real men support Harris”? Is he saying “real men rape significantly younger, more vulnerable men not yet hardened and jaded by the horrors of war”?

    I’m beyond confused.

    That is literally what he has said, yes. There is no other possible interpretation to the words he used.
