  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

Lol you just would have spent those hours with titty mags and some other pointless nerdy stuff. Same difference. Coming from someone with a similar background.
As I'm trying to explain why I disagree, I realize that this is actually too complicated for me to explain here. To summarize, you have to take more things into account than a substitute for the tech. That point might be somewhat valid, but I still don't think even that holds up (in my case). To be fair, I did the first oversimplification (should have just posted nothing or a joke).

On one hand, I feel like I was born a few decades too late. I was born in the early 80s, and feel like I should've been a part of my parents' generation instead. I would've loved to have been alive during the peak years of American manufacturing, quality, and scientific progress. Muscle cars, good hi-fi gear, the ability to have witnessed the moon landing as it happened. And to have my life winding down now that the world is going to hell from toxic politics and social media bullshit. On the other hand, with my neurological and psychiatric disorders, as @SparkleWater mentioned, I was probably born too early. Even in the 80s, nobody knew how to treat Tourettes. And even since then, most of the medications offered for anxiety and depression have been bullshit. So... all in all, I'd say it's a crapshoot and we've all got a good chance of being miserable no matter when we were born.
I WAS there for all of that, I can tell you lots of people still had problems.

Everyone idolises the past, but I doubt the past was any better than the present. I also doubt the future will be any better than the present unless one is confusing the future with Star Trek or Star Wars. In the real world, for example, a bolt of lightning is not going to strike Vladimir Putin dead any time in the near future.

I some ways, yes. I would probably have preferred the 19th century - but only if I had been born into a reasonably affluent family. Life for the less well off was much harder then

I would have liked to be around a few decades earlier when N was available, so I could die without brutalising myself. Alternatively, I should not have been born at all.

I feel like I never should have been born. I don't think it would matter if I was born in a different time period. Me and life are incompatible

I would have choosen being born in 1940's. Even getting N prescription was super easy. There was no internet no bullshit that is today. I would have lived until maybe late 90's or maximum 2010. Society has always been shit but technology after that year made it even more disgusting.
