Anyway, all that’s depressing. Instead, have a cute photo of Emily Ratajkowski sitting in a shopping bag:

What’s funny about this is that many, many modern feminists claim the top photo is a feminist utopia and the bottom one is patriarchal oppression:

The first ten on today’s playlist:

For instance, about the below, I believe I’ve read every single peer-reviewed paper that exists in the world in English or French about the protective effect of facemasks. After the pandemic began, I also reviewed my epidemiology and virology textbooks that I read in toto about a decade ago.

What have you done? Nothing, of course. Then how are you in any way qualified to claim any fucking thing about if facemasks have any protective effect?

Answer: you are absolutely not. You don’t even know how wrong you are. All ya’ll sound like complete and utter doofuses. If that offends you, the fucks I do not give are boundless and timeless. Get smarter, don’t play stupid games, and I’ll be nicer.

Something else I was disappointed to realize as an adult is that most people know very little about how anything works (scientifically, societally, mechanistically, systemically, sociologically), have no curiosity about any of it, hold no real knowledge about the subject matter, yet still feel qualified to expound ill-founded opinions on it.

How can this be? Again, I just cannot fucking understand. I spend 10 years studying something and some dipshit who just learned what the “Discount Window” was five minutes ago is even allowed to have some sort of opinion on it? Just no. We live in a clown world.

Wow, someone really thought this wallpaper was a good idea, huh:

Liberals today are obsessed with age gaps in relationships for some reason (perhaps because they are amenable to easy quantification*), but the intelligence gap is far more determinative of who holds actual power in a relationship. It’s not the only factor, of course, but it’s a big one.

But it’s verboten, mostly, in the lib mind to talk about intelligence and it’d mostly never occur to them to apply this lens to relationships.

But I’m right and they are wrong.

*The ability to easily and in small sound bite/Twitter bite form quantify something seems to mostly control what’s allowed to be discussed now. Algos winning.
