It's an almost heretical thought here in the Late Internet Era, but, yes, people should be able to choose to have happily private lives, in which they do what they like with the other people who consent to do it with them. Also, I was very late to learning what the whole pineapple thing was about.
Generally I think we'll all be better off if people keep their horny swinger nudism to themselves in general. All I wanna see is an upside-down pineapple bumper sticker or door decoration, and I'm good with that.

Newsletter: Crypto’s latest “infinite money machine” is the digital asset treasury company — a publicly traded firm that exists primarily to accumulate crypto. For a while, these stocks traded at hefty premiums to the underlying assets. But now, the trade is unraveling.
