It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Counterpoint: any time one has non-reproductive PIV sex, one creates a fork in the timeline where the contraceptives failed and the result was carried to term.

Veni, vidi, vici.

therefore there must be a fork where every single time a man had sex he had an additional child

"goddamn why does this keep happening to me?" says the man with 58 children, learning his 59th is on its way

"I don't even have testicles! Where are the little guys coming from‽"

"This man is medically baffling! He's had over 100 vasectomies, and every single one of them failed! How do they keep recanalizing so much?"

Lo, the king of Ephyra cannot get his rock up the hill without it rolling down; meanwhile this guy cannot get his rocks off without knocking someone up. This is indeed what we in the biz like to call a "Sisyphean creampie".

This implies there is a timeline where the result was a miscarriage, and another where the result was an abortion

In fact, every single moment during the course of a pregnancy creates those forks again and again and again and again, and a simple miscarriage is by all means the least horrifying of these timelines.

Incidentally, it is believed that the vast majority of human pregnancies do not last to term, but of that vast majority, it is most common for pregnancy loss to happen before one is even aware one is pregnant.
