What is a personal story you have that you don’t tell because it sounds made up?
I don’t tell this story in person to anyone who doesn’t know me well and who does not know the crazy shit I’ve seen and done, but it’s the one about me attempting to avert an international incident while I tried to to politely avoid the police chief of Tashkent, Uzbekistan, offering me a “free” woman.
That was…a day.
Damn that’s fun.
Yeah, it’s the full 17 minute version but it’s worth watching because of just how absurdly fucking good she is.
There will always be some conflict between men and women because both very badly want something from the other, but neither can admit how badly they want it or what exactly it is.
As noted, this will never fully resolve no matter what we do.
I agree with some of this, but I think we’re about as likely to get rid of gender or even substantially restructure it in the next 0-500 years as we are to destroy all hydrogen in the universe.
Tilting at windmills is useful sometimes, but….
Her fingers are frequently moving more quickly than the camera’s frame rate.
Aspartame designated possible carcinogen by World Health Organization’s IARC.
As usual from the WHO, complete horseshit and relies on poorly-done studies that demonstrate very, very little effect. Air causes cancer by the measures most of the included studies used.
Anyone with an IQ above that of a banana slug gets told when we want any sort of control of our computer or devices that we are using them “wrong,” but it’s people who have more brains than a slice of ham that actually do anything worth a damn with said devices.
People are easily led, though, and even more easily misled. They’ll mostly believe what they’re told if it’s repeated enough.
I am still mystified, however, by how and why people continue to do so much on a damn tiny-ass phone.
It means as long as computers exist I will always be a hundred steps ahead of them. But why do people enjoy hurting themselves for “convenience?”
I am completely incapable of reading paper books anymore. I find them kind of revolting. Also, not being able to change the font size is a complete dealbreaker.
Terrible things.
Inflation was not “transitory” if it was and has been elevated far above the historical norm for the past 2+ years. Jesus fucking Christ I can’t believe that has to be said.
This is just an insane amount of cope and lying. Originally, the utterly wrong “Team Transitory” assured us that inflation would subside on its own, with no Fed or other action. They were completely against raising rates. Now that we’ve had a few years of rate rises and QT, they don’t get to just declare victory. Most of them claimed inflation would be back to normal in 3-6 months. And that was in early 2021, recall.
It’s also doubly fucking laughable as inflation is still well above the historical trend line while they are saying they won. Fucking idiot clowns who should not even be in charge of soiled bedpan inventory at a VC-owned nursing home.
I have burned through so many books that I often cannot remember I’ve read a book until I get 10-20 pages into it and realize, Oh yeah, now I remember all this.
Have done that twice in the last few weeks.
One of the reasons women’s dating advice to men is nearly 100% useless is that women don’t have to actually do much to get tons of interest. Women — especially attractive women — have no goddamn idea how much work men put in, for how few results.
Think it’s a chore to shave your legs? Try 500 approaches and 500 rejections. That’s not me being an incel; that’s just an average man’s life. I’m not bitter about it but it is reality. That so many women won’t accept how terrible rejection feels makes sense when you realize that many attractive women have never or only very, very rarely been rejected in their entire lives. (And this shows when they do get rejected; it often breaks them.)
Only super-hot and rich men like Paul Newman* rarely experience rejection and he was one in a million or more.
So, the more attractive the woman the worse her dating advice (for men) will be as she’s never had to work at it. She could crawl out of a dumpster covered in maggots and 100 guys would be lined up to date her.
This is absolutely not how dating works for men.
*There was a story I read somewhere about someone watching Paul Newman proposition 30 different women and all accepting. Jesus Christ.
Summer’s here. Travel, for many of us, is not just wonderful but essential.
But the standard-issue libs tell me travel is evil and unnecessary and you hate the planet with a burning loathing deep in your soul if you so much as venture more than 30 feet from your pod home.
Why must they be like this? What’s wrong in their shriveled tofu-rotted brains?
The more my arms are showing in public, the better treatment I get from the average woman (especially).
Yet I was told that women weren’t visual at all, and didn’t care about such things? Ha. NOPE. LIES.
