@Justicar Would you say that producing creative works is necessarily for others as a condition of it being the purpose to life, or could one create for the sake of creation?

@UncleIroh @sardonicsmile True. The ideology of control rather than cooperation.

@sardonicsmile Socialism at work.

Here is a new word for your enjoyment: thotistic - adj. - having the qualities or proclivities of a thot; the condition of being a thot. "Please excuse my sister, she's thotistic, which is why she's wearing a niqab.

Addendum: Consider using burkas and niqabs as a punishment or shaming tool for females. I think it is much better than as a blanket (pun intended) condition for females in public.

Personally, I think the niqab is too much covering as a garment in many cases. A shayla is much more flattering and still maintains a degree of modesty.

@Autumn If they import a foreign culture, they will experience this type of cultural "impression".

@Justicar @sardonicsmile This is also true.

@sardonicsmile Real men don't care what other people say real men do.

@matrix Considering one of the great appeals of underground music is rebellion, I can think of few things as rebellious in the eyes of western society--except for perhaps true patriarchy.

@Autumn This is historically accurate.

@Autumn He's missing a mail cowel under his helmet to protect the nape of his neck.

@Justicar I used to care only about comfort and practicality as well. I used to wear cargo pants and cotton t-shirts essentially everywhere.
I can't explain my desire for nice clothes over sports wear any more than I can explain my taste for figs over melons, despite the fact that such taste does require more attention like occasional dry cleaning and regular ironing. Good clothing feels amazingly comfortable as well.
When I go grocery shopping in a suit, if I do standout, no one comments.

Recently, I have taken to wearing nicer clothing because I like the way they look on me. It feels good to be able to dress the way you like.

@Autumn @fuknukl The conscripts who are chained to their holes and MG nests aren't the ones in Kursk (supposedly). The Kursk units were (again supposedly) the elite units, not conscripts.

@Gonzo17 While I approve of lederhosen, I do not approve of thottery.

@mrhorsetwat @Tfmonkey @VooDooMedic Baby steps are still steps.

@ButtWorldsMan Immensely based

@Justicar Another day to see the markets fall: It's not a large loss, but it may be the beginning of a trend of such losses.
