From Investopedia:

"A reverse stock split consolidates the number of existing shares of stock held by shareholders into fewer shares.
A reverse stock split does not directly impact a company's value (only its stock price).
It can signal a company in distress since it raises the value of otherwise low-priced shares.
Remaining relevant and avoiding being delisted are the most common reasons for corporations to pursue this strategy."

I think I am seeing more of the issue with which Aaron is confronted but cannot seem to overcome: female weakness.

He clearly understands that males and females are biologically different, and their motivations are likewise different, but he can't seem to accept the idea that males don't need female permission to do anything, that females are wholly dependent on males, or that they are less capable than males (or if he does, he can't speak of it).

@ButtWorldsMan In my experience, those who are like this are always better company.

Something else that's on my mind:
I'm involved in a local organization, and when some activity is discussed, I always put in 80% of the organizational work and 50% of the physical work to achieve the objective (assuming there is no explicitly defined role of leader which I hold in which case, I delegate more of the physical work).

Everyone else stands around and waits to be told what to do by someone in authority, whether explicit or assumed.

It is the way of things.

@ButtWorldsMan If it was just about sex, then you wouldn't have innovation outside of as a means to facilitate the transaction for sex (whether that transaction is made between a female and male or between a male and another male who is her conservator).

The phenomenon of the single, asexual genius who propels the species forward and the existentialist male who live to improve themselves and their chosen field would not exist.

The hypothesis cannot account for successful existentialists.

@ButtWorldsMan That is exactly what my follow-up was.

I believe civilization came about due to male's desire to improve their lives and the lives of their families. Are males motivated to do things to get sex? Yes, but observing that sex is a powerful motivation does not necessarily make it the motive behind civilization's creation

I was listening to "A World Without Men" by Aaron Clarey, and while I am enjoying most of it, he seems to believe in no uncertain terms that the male sex drive is responsible for civilization because males made the transaction that males make with females (i.e. protection and provision for sex).

I do not believe that the males wanting to make a deal with females of resources for sex is why civilization came about.

@Stahesh @ButtWorldsMan That is called thinking with your dick.

@ButtWorldsMan Females in government positions is unwise. Those females should have rings on their fingers (the third might and I just can't see) and be at home with their children while their husbands work in the newly downsized government.

I enjoy seeing appreciable assets as much as anyone, but government shouldn't be involved with said assets.

@ButtWorldsMan And yet he posted on their platform

@RoninGrey I see what you mean.

@Shlomo This likely is related to the economic downturn, but it's also well established. Mercedes is effectively fully franchising.

@UncleIroh I had the experience of speaking to someone yesterday who suckles Semite semen like there's no tomorrow. We were doing something wholly unrelated to politics, and otherwise he's a nice fellow; so, I don't mind talking to him, but don't get him started on how wonderful Israel is.

TFM was right, you have to do X things with your X friends, and Y things with your Y friends, and that's okay. Guys do well to come together to accomplish specific tasks.

@ButtWorldsMan He's back. Should we call him Noir Chad?

@Stahesh @rohrkrepierer I remember when one would just say such a person was in denial, but the OP's not in denial of the reality that the girlfriend was a slut if not a whore. His standards are simply so low that he's willing to accept such a female.

@UncleIroh @Hugh_Jazz Hips that big would be 50-60 lbs easily. That's a torso's worth of TPE, I'd say.

@Hugh_Jazz Bouncy bouncy!

@Stahesh I sympathise. It couldn't be that you're trying to make a better life than they lived and the world is a very different place now than it was for them.

No, you're just not doing it "right" meaning how they lived. Solipsistic thinking from a female; I am not surprised or angry.
