        I think people become addicted to addictive things. I don't think pain is required. - NedoftheHill - 6:47pm 11/17/25
        With porn, there is a dopamine release, but it's not a function of a chemical. - iairishcheeks - 7:00pm 11/17/25
        Makes sense. A teen male will always be "lonely" for a teen female though due to his hormones. - NedoftheHill - 8:15pm 11/17/25

        Because it was a garbage bill that codified the mess that you people created. [NT] - jakers - 11:27am 11/17/25
        I'll ask you the same question (again)...what specifically do you think is wrong with the Bill? [NT] - TyroneIrish - 11:57am 11/17/25

        Odd that I can take the time to help you see genuine progress by the Biden admin on Border - TyroneIrish - 11:15am 11/18/25
        "Genuine progress???" I love it. - jakers - 12:24pm 11/18/25
