      Serious sexual repression I think. Conservatives publicly treat sex and sexuality as things that are dirty and sinful. Sometimes they get caught out for doing weird shit because they can’t escape from their inherent human sexual urges.

      I honestly think a lot of it is probably rooted in childhood and generational trauma (e.g. their parent(s) physically/verbally abused them for sexual curiosity at a young age, just as their grandparents’ did to their parents, and so on).

      As my friends who specialize in trauma therapy like to say, a majority of the weird/evil shit we see in the world is rooted in trauma.

      God forbid anyone actually enjoys sex. It must be really confusing to know that God gave women clitorises. Clitori?

    Weird christian shame shit aside, here’s a nice security concern to top it off:

    “A US Congressman is allowing a 3rd Party tech company to scan ALL of his electronic devices daily and then uploading reports to his son about what he’s watching or not watching….,” Receipt Maven wrote. “I mean, who else is accessing that data?”

      You’d think this obvious hole in cybersecurity would be a big deal to the “but her emails” types, if they had absolutely any moral consistency

    Mike Johnson goes to the doctor for a checkup.

    Doctor says, “Mr. Speaker, you’ve got to stop masturbating.”

    Johnson says, “Why?”

    Doctor says, “So I can examine you.”

    The real problem is people that should be our leaders don’t want anything to do with all the bullshit involved with politics. So we end up with weirdos and crazies instead.

    On the one hand that’s weird.

    On the other hand, for a Republican these days maybe not that weird.

    Call me when the inevitable mutual masturbation video surfaces.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Speaker of the House Mike Johnson admitted that he and his son monitored each other’s porn intake in a resurfaced clip from 2022.

    During a conversation on the “War on Technology” at Benton, Louisiana’s Cypress Baptist Church — unearthed by X user Receipt Maven last week — the Louisiana representative talked about how he installed “accountability software” called Covenant Eyes on his devices in order to abstain from internet porn and other unsavory websites.

    Outside of the creepy Big Brother-ness of it all, Receipt Maven also aired concerns about whether Covenant Eyes — which is still a working subscription-based service — might “compromise” Johnson’s devices, if he’s still actively seeking accountability.

    “A US Congressman is allowing a 3rd Party tech company to scan ALL of his electronic devices daily and then uploading reports to his son about what he’s watching or not watching….,” Receipt Maven wrote.

    Since he was elected Speaker of the House in October, Johnson’s history as a faith-obsessed, election-denying, far-right Christian nationalist has come under the microscope, from his time with the anti-LBGTQ organization Alliance Defending Freedom to his claim that school shootings could be blamed on abortion and teaching evolution.

    In an interview Sunday morning on Fox News, Johnson was asked about his history on abortion, including claims that he was opposed to contraception and IVF treatment.

    Revealed: Mike Johnson watches more porn than the rest of the politicians combined, and apparently it’s a father-son activity.
