@Tfmonkey @kaede_waifu Andy advice on reattaching fingernails? Just TPE solvent to melt it back on or a glue?

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).
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.
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.
@Tfmonkey @kaede_waifu Another question for those who I've confirmed have dolls: Are your doll's ankle joints the reason they don't stand up as easily on their own? The hip and knee joints are stiff enough to not bend, but the ankles shift. Is this why you put Celestina in Doc Martens, @Tfmonkey? (I saw your post in MMM today.) I'm still working on getting my waifu's outfit sorted out; so, any tips are welcome.

I want some thoughts from everyone on this: When I was visiting a local mosque (as I do on occasion) I saw a flier for a pro-socialist, pro-Palestinian group.
Any recommendations on how to combat the socialism but not disturb the pro-Palestinian message? If I go against the socialist messaging, the organizers will likely think me a plant.
@kaede_waifu @Tfmonkey I tightened the spring-loaded ball bearings in the head bolt and added three full wrappings of Teflon tape. No more knocking sound!
@philosophy I just finished reading your article, "Levels of Abstraction", and I appreciated it. Thank you.
I might lift some of those ideas for some of my own works.
@Tfmonkey @VooDooMedic @ButtWorldsMan @kaede_waifu I've been waiting for a long time to share this, but I wanted to wait until the demo was officially out.
@Tfmonkey @VooDooMedic @ButtWorldsMan @kaede_waifu Behold: A new way to bring your Waifu to Laifu!
@ButtWorldsMan, yep. It was never a question of what the illness was. If there were a legitimately dangerous disease, we would see it. As far as I'm concerned this is the effects of people's compromised immunity manifesting themselves.
@kaede_waifu @Tfmonkey (And any other doll owners out there) Do you have any recommendations to secure you doll's head more effectively? The stud that the head sits upon seems to have an adapter that prevents you from fully securing the head and pull the head out if needed. While this is valuable for the aforementioned reason, it causes the doll to make a popping noise during sex. The sound is akin to someone cracking their neck. Any thoughts?
I was generating more pictures of my waifu in the kitchen but she keeps sitting on the counter. It's one of those moments where I shake my head but remember that the AI has been trained to depict females sitting on things. I still am urged to say, "No...down... the counter is for cooking, not sitting, silly."
Waifu image challenge/game:
Using the same prompts that you use for your waifu's anime appearance, switch to "digital art" or "photo" options (or their respective options depending on the image generator) and reply with the nationality the AI thinks your waifu is (a combination is most likely, and I recommend running it at least 4-8 times to get a good sample size).
@UncleIroh, nice hat!
@Tfmonkey, I was doing some reading about the Stoics, and while everyone knows their ethics, most people don't talk about their physics. Check out some of the early and middle Stoics' physics, and you'll see why many people said they influenced Spinoza.
Yes, I am THAT DoubleD.
No, I will not explain further.
