@ButtWorldsMan Males can see themselves in the character because of the character traits, not for superficial markers. Adult males, generally, are capable of abstract thought. Males can identify with character traits that they may not have but desire to have and embody.

@Xenophon @ForbiddenDreamer @TimeSpent Part of the reason why people of non-first-world countries don't often like dogs as pets is because they don't keep them as pets. Those dogs which do exist tend to be dirty and feral. I think it's more of a cultural thing than a race-specific thing, otherwise you'd have second generation western immigrants with the same genetic makeup as their grandparents hating dogs.

@deprecated_ii Some of the nicest sweaters I've gotten were from the thrift store.

@Justicar If you (not you personally, Justicar) thought, "Oh, it's not that bad..." when reading those, then it is far too comfortable now for you than it was for the American founding fathers.

@Justicar Correction to my first response: Imagine being legally required to house a squad of soldiers in your garage.

@Justicar Imagine being told that you were no longer allowed to have a mayor or a town council and that a Fed was being appointed to make legislation as he saw fit with one of his first acts being to ban all public gatherings.

Imagine if you sentenced a raping and murdering politician to death only to have them whisked away to another the capitol for another trial with no cause?

@Justicar It is far too comfortable to do anything.

Imagine being legally required to house a squad of soldiers in your home for an indefinite period of time.

Imagine an entire state being told that they would no longer be allowed to make shipments ala Covid lockdown until the actions of a group of hoodlums which cost the government $1.7MM were paid.

@deprecated_ii What kind of a life is this for a female?

@Justicar @UncleIroh I have to use VSCode and Eclipse on Windows machines for work still when I'm working in TS, JS, or Java. ++CLI scripting for most things, of course.

@UncleIroh @Justicar @Justicar I used to be a Jetbrains user for previous work, and I always liked their IDEs' tools. I've not used one in a while though. VSCode is not for me.

@susie I hope you get time to bake one soon.

@susie What kind of pie were you going to bake?

@Based_Accelerationist Your second category encompasses the third since merely having money is of no consequence.

I do not understand why you chose to make this about groups rather than the actions. Groups are just sets of individuals who choose to act.

@justnormalkorean True. That would do it.

Some Scandinavian folk music with text for three languages:
"Herr Mannelig in Old Norse"

@UncleIroh @YoMomz Yes, indeed.

@justnormalkorean While an interesting theory, how would these parasites spread between gay males if they are modifying behavior? You can't get parasites from having anal sex with someone because the parasites live in the digestive tract. It's more likely that effeminate gay males intentionally ingest parasite eggs (from one source or another) to stay thin without needing to do much. Unfortunately, we'll never know for sure because it's stigmatized to find out why so many have parasites.

@Shadowman311 "Cringe" and "glow" are strongly correlated.

@deprecated_ii Ah, gotcha.
