Biggest myth women believe about men: That all men are ready to have sex all the time and any time with any woman who presents herself, and that all we think about is sex.
Biggest myth men believe about women: All women are naturally nurturing and don’t mind taking care of your incapable ass, or a bunch of kids, or both at the same time.

This is a large part of what Return to Office BS is about. A lot of commercial real estate is done for.
It's very on brand for Russia to constantly brag that they have a missile that can't be intercepted, and then to fire a bunch of those missiles and have them all get intercepted.https://t.co/rQSednmcgd

That is pretty funny. Anything that helps Ukraine and makes the tankies cry is a damn fine thing.
It's also not really going to be driven by anything Biden does. At this point every company realizes that the moment China invades Taiwan, all their investments in China go *poof*.
Decoupling is now an existential imperative for multinationals. https://t.co/VhxG5PHykm

If you’re a non-Chinese company that has anything going on in China and you’re not doing everything you can to diversify away from there, in a few years you’re gonna be completely fucked. China is going to invade Taiwan and you’ll lose everything.
I very much advise using non-sugar sweeteners for weight control, no matter what the WHO says. The studies they are relying on are nearly all extremely flawed.
Non-sugar sweeteners work great and I’d be 20-30 pounds heavier without them. Fortunately, there is a relatively easy three-step synthesis process for saccharine if they try to take it away. I will then learn how to make it.
People Who Do Strength Training Live Longer — and Better.
Indeed. It’s improved my life vastly. The health benefits are great, as are the aesthetic benefits you’re not supposed to work for or talk about. But I do work for them and fuck anyone who has a problem with it.
And it’s awesome being strong again. It just makes all of life easier. Highly recommended.
It’s weird seeing Covid simultaneously be a real disease with real symptoms that nearly indisputably show up in the numbers and also be a global morgellons situation

That has been odd indeed. Not sure what to make of it exactly. Large collective traumas do weird psychological shit to people that also inevitably affects their bodies.
In that sense, Long Covid is completely real — but it’ll also have very nebulous and ever-changing physical etiologies identified. I’ve been seeing that already really frequently.
We live in strange times. And they are getting stranger.
A haircut that a few years ago used to cost $12.95 is now $22. Yes, I get cheap haircuts because to me it just doesn’t matter. But still — that’s 1.7x more in just a few years.
And that doesn’t include tip (I always tip very large).
Something that sounds made up to me but I know is not is that so many people seem to require a pitch black environment to sleep.
I don’t prefer it being super bright, but if it is so be it. I can still sleep just fine. I had a friend that argued with me that it was “impossible” that I could sleep in bright light. Yet I’ve done it quite often in my life, and in fact I used to sleep with the lights on all the time (was too lazy and/or too cold when living in an unheated place to get up and turn them off).
This is what “degrowth” actually looks like in practice:

Yep. Degrowth is a numbnuts shit-for-brains assclown dooftastic idea. Just utter gutter trash thinking.
once in a while i get utterly stunlocked by the existence of modern tankies. i can track the radicalization of jihadis or white supremacists, i can see the footsteps there. but you guys are just fucking inexplicable weirdos

And there are so many of them! Who would’ve thought? I never would’ve started reading Ian Welsh’s dumb ass in the first place if I’d realized he was a tankie. It’s just not worth it.

It’s always funny when conservatives say shit like, “You just want to make it where medical care is free, being a billionaire is illegal, and you want to give people places to live!”
Well, yes, that is exactly what we want to do. They say it like it’s a death curse which is what makes so fucking hilarious.
Diet sodas are not actually good for your diet, WHO guidance suggests.
Ah bullshit. There’s no fucking way I would’ve lost as much weight as I did (and kept it off) if I hadn’t switched completely to diet soda.
Complete fucking horseshit. Goddamn I am gonna be fucking pissed if they try to take those away from me.
Still trying to figure out why so many neo-Tankies (Noam Chomsky, Ian Welsh, etc.) hate Ukraine and the Ukrainian people so much, and love Putin. Fucking Putin!
Why they see what Putin is doing as anti-imperialist I cannot even fathom. Invading another country, committing genocide and blowing up schools and supermarkets…yeah, that’s very anti-imperialist right there. Makes complete sense.
That the US is helping Ukraine doesn’t make Russia some savior. I will never understand that brand of “logic.” Mainly because it’s the logic of complete dumbasses.
