As someone who has learned significant amounts of both languages, French is far easier. The grammar of French is simpler to handle. It’s more similar to English and just in general faster to learn. Meanwhile, German has grammatical gender plus a case system. This alone makes it 2-3x as complex. And then the travesties it commits on verbs and word order…best not speak of it.
Also, the US State Department’s Foreign Service Institute rates French as easier. And that’s pretty authoritative.
So-called pickup artists were hated because their techniques and training worked, not because they were misogynists. Women viewed the movement as unauthorized and undesirable men getting an unfair advantage, similar to how many liberals see working out and staying fit as cheating. It’s the same mindset. Idiotic, yes, but I’m just describing, not condoning.
Nearly all the people I’ve seen dragging Audrey for how “hideous” she is have been women — it’s actually women who have higher standards than men, even for other women.
As for me, I’ve liked Audrey for a while. I had no idea she was supposed to be some super hideous freak to many people. I cannot understand why. It looks like she’s having fun and she has some good pop songs. Women, leave her alone.
Alas that is probably true. Because that’s the way it always goes, like all the doofclowns now writing “authoritatively” about the 90s who are too young to recall that time.
I’m certainly not defending misogyny, but women in the US in particular are just worse now. Their mental health has been destroyed by smartphones and social media; these are not the same women we used to have. Most of them are entitled, repugnant, spoiled brats who hate men but still think they all deserve that top 0.1% man — while offering nothing and looking like a cave troll due to no exercise and obesity.
So of course there is going to be some backlash to that. It’d more notable if there were not a counter-reaction.
To me, audiobooks are worthless time-wasters. I have a thousand thoughts between each word. So painfully slow. I tried listening to an audiobook once and wanted to kill myself.
I read somewhere between 8-20x as fast as the average person speaks, depending on the complexity of the work, so I have no time for the glacial pace of audiobooks. Just no.

I clicked this thinking it’d be just an empty list. Which is what it should be.
According to many fucktard busted-ass shit-for-brains extroverts (ask me what I really think), introverts do not exist and it’s just some correctable personality flaw.
But being around a bunch of people like at this conference makes me so tired that I sleep significantly more.
Extroverts really have no theory of mind (with a few exceptions). They are just noisy and nosy.
Correct. In almost all sporting events, women can wear whatever they like. Most choose to wear the least, both for performance reasons (it’s more aerodynamic) and because many are rightfully proud of their bodies and want to be seen.
And many of the broadcast execs are women, and would prefer that the women athletes not be seen. It’s that female intrasexual competition again….
One thing that should be studied about the now-foundering Fat Acceptance movement is that they ran an extremely successful propaganda operation that converted millions with quite low resources. That’s actually admirable in it’s way — that is not all that easy to do, and they were instrumental in successfully filling people’s heads with counterscientific nonsense for well more than a decade.
I’m not being flip. It was a successful operation that altered millions of people’s perceptions of the world. Also, harmed millions. But my point is that it worked.
Why do idiot leftists care so much about some derelict rocket crashing into the Moon?
It’s a sterile world. There is literally nothing there. No ecosystem to disrupt. Nothing to disturb. No permanent harm will be done in any way that matters.
By the way, in March ’22 the Chang’e 5-T1’s third stage booster impacted the Moon near the Hertzsprung crater and no one cared, least of all aforementioned idiot leftists.
Hmmm.
Just the usual nonsense from the very worst people in the world, so vile that they are content to let “refugees” rape and assault as long they are brown while doing so. We should crash them all into the Moon.
I love it; that’s the sign drawn across the sky itself of progress.
I don’t care about how much I sleep, when I sleep, tracking my sleep, doing anything else about sleep than I already do, having a sleep schedule or even really giving much of a crap about sleep.
I just do not care. It’s mostly irrelevant to how I live my life. Why are people so obsessed with this? Sleep when you need to, don’t when you don’t. Simple.
I don’t think I have good taste in music, but just like what the fuck I like and don’t give a flying fuck who knows it.
That radio station that’s showing the tracks in the sidebar? That’s the music I actually listen to. It’s not curated (for the station). It’s just whatever semi-randomly1 pulls from the 11,000+ tracks I have in my main music directory. I don’t edit or block or even pick anything.
Simple as that. Woo-Hah!
