People never seem to apply this to the arts.

People still use Eric Gill's fonts (sexually abused his kids), they put on plays by Oscar Wilde (who was definitely a sex tourist and the descriptions in letters makes it fairly clear the boys were underage), several murderers are admired for their works: https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20170517-can-you-separat...

I would not want to work with this guy, but using his code is not the same. I suspect if ReiserFs had been more successful it would have been forked rather than died after the murder conviction.

THis guy also sounds like he has severe mental health problems or is trolling: "I am physically the most disgusting form of existence that ever lived, I am so ugly people vomit when they merely see me. I can't even buy a prostitute no matter how much I would pay."




He links to a panoramic scan of his unclothed body. Seems normative.


Yeah I really doubt the "can't get a prostitute" thing. And I really would recommend him to get one tbh. Not having had sex well into your 20s takes a toll on most guys' confidence and becomes something you look up to too much. Just doing it that way takes the pressure off and make you realise it's not the huge thing you thought it was. Been there and done that :)

IMO there's nothing bad about seeing one. People make sex out to be a bigger thing than it is. Most of the sex workers I know also enjoy the work.
