@MaleGoddess - This is relatable... 🤔🤔 But I have something to say about it:
The scenario described does happen. And you make a fair point about a good woman choosing trash. It's unreasonable to expect any woman, to be more than a woman.
I see generations of male failure at work when this happens. Sure, it's the product of generations of females calling shots, and that is male failure.
If there's a lesson, it is this: when taking women's rights away, even your mom must lose her rights.
@dander - this kid's good. 😂🍻
@basedbagel - lololol!! Forgot about that bit... 😅
@basedbagel - There was gay shit?? 🤔🤔
I mean, Edward was very tomboy... and Spike's perm always seemed effeminate to me, but then I learned it's apparently a Yakuza trope... and I had a good think about cultural differences, and how funny they can be.
But other than that, I don't remember much of any gay shit. Well, unless it's the Netflix live-action. 😅😂🤣
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu - underrated. 🍻
@theFlow - It would be nice if the transition to the new building is used as an opportunity to disguise a purge.
I know that's not gonna be the case, but it's a nice thought. 😔
@RoninGrey - Man, I remember the last time I got a physical for work. Usually it's no big deal.. eye test, some range-of-motion exercises, an informal hearing test.. and my clothes stay on.
Depending on the lighting, I could be called a handsome fella. It is what it is.
Last physical, the female practitioner had me drop pants. I was unlucky enough to have worn a short shirt that day, & the look on my face was discomfort. So she called in two other female observers. I felt mildly violated.
😒😂😓
@n3f_X - Nice! 😎👌
@charliebrownau - Needless to say, I don't expect to maintain modern living standards. I'm planning for no electricity & no petro-energy. Overkill?🤔 Maybe.
But if my gamble pays off, it will be the best living standard available. In theory, whatever is most in tune with human nature will prosper, in societal terms.
I plan to create a civilizational seed. 🫡🍻
@charliebrownau - I see a biblical amount of death coming up. I don't know if it's on any divine agenda, but with the sheer number of people available to die, compared to biblical times... 🤔🤔
I was hoping to make a success of myself, and set up shop with multiple properties located in some secluded mountain valley. But we seem to be quickly running out of time.
So, I'm now setting my sights on a rural homestead on small acreage - with an eye to future expansion under the right conditions.
@Zeb @charliebrownau @Tfmonkey - Yes, this is also my plan.
I believe a worthy society can exist, even as a subculture (see: Amish). It requires vigilance, patriarchy, and monumental catastrophe to allow the opportunity.
Normally, that last bit would render the idea a non-starter... 🤔 But hey, just look around. 💁🏻♂️ I know I'm feeling pretty lucky... kinda liking the odds these days. 💪😎🍻
Just remember kids, patience is a virtue. 🫡
@TenaciousGoat - One of the best fitness investments I've made, is a set of adjustable dumbbells. With a handle twist you can adjust them from 5-50lbs.
They were a spendy $300, several years ago. But I justified the purchase because they were compact, and fit in well with driving a semi cross-country.
But the investment could be easily justified by the convenience & speed of adjustment alone. That makes it less of a hindrance to use them, and all the fiddling with weight adjustments adds up.
@dander - Nothing so dramatic... It's just the vibe of professional driving with the TFM crew in the background. 🍻
@Chimi_Chuang_Tzu - 🤭😂🤣
@sardonicsmile - Nice! 🍻
@basedbagel @VeganMGTOW - I think the generation thing is useful as a loose sort of shorthand way to generalize.
But yes, people are often too rigid with it. And the people over the age of 25, who take generational pride in a bureaucratic categorization... 🤔 Well, they're in for tough times as reality continues to defy their expectations. 😅
@dander - This gives me flashbacks... To last Friday when I was working. And all the workdays before that... 🤔😂
@ButtWorldsMan @Tfmonkey - "Regret vet"... 🤔
That's got a nice ring to it.
