@shortstories - I've never really noticed the difference between noses. But I haven't ever hung out with a lot of Jews either. 💁🏻♂️
@shortstories - delete and repost? Up to you my friend. 🤔💁🏻♂️🍻 I'm not sweating it though.
@shortstories - I can't change my vote. 😆😂🤣
Anyway, I vote libraries (referring to the object of a building, filled with many book-shaped objects) are not communist, and are not bad.
@shortstories - I see. There's an ambiguity because the word "Library" can refer to different concepts... and you meant the other meaning.
Roger that. I'm changing my vote.
@shortstories - Libraries are generally good, even if librarians are often communistic.
I often say that living well, is about maintaining balance. As long as librarians know their place (shushing people, putting books away, and light housekeeping), then things are fine. When librarians start aspiring to "have an impact"... then there's a problem. But it's nothing that replacing a librarian can't fix.
It's an easy job. It won't be hard to find someone else willing to keep books organized. 😎🍻
@Stahesh @VeganMGTOW - eh, perhaps... 🤔 but butter is the only condiment(?) that can make any dish better. It can be added to sweet things, or savory things, with equal improvement. 💪😎
@basedbagel - And for each female this process has applied to... There were several prior boyfriends who treated them well, and would've made decent husbands.
Women really don't need rights. 🍻
@basedbagel - Thankfully, it has never come to actual violence. But you have to be convincingly prepared.
I generally explain to the man, what the consequences will be if this continues, and that it's not worth it. And then I will often wish him well, and advise him to move on.
I would hold the females accountable for their end, but that's a pointless endeavor. Still, I'll explain what went wrong, what not to do in future, and apply social pressure to that end.
@basedbagel - Yeah, this is very true. I've intervened in several cases, and the females are just as complicit. I wasn't white-knighting... These women were people I share DNA with.
With each new experience, I have found it more useful and expedient as a peacemaker/abuse-relationship-breaker, to simply impose your will upon both parties.
This means you have be strong, possess sound judgement, and be willing and able to inflict painful violence.
@doggel @basedbagel - And as an addendum to the enlightening personal story... It should come as no surprise that the person who handed me that label, was a woman in her early twenties.
I would never take life advice, and certainly would never accept the judgement and verdict of a 23yo female today. So that old diagnosis holds no sway over me today. 💁🏻♂️
But how many impressionable young men aren't so fortunate to realize that young women have no business telling men how to go about living? 🤔
@doggel @basedbagel - ➡️ It illustrated very clearly, how easy it can be to discredit a person, and how effectively such a means as "mental health care" can be used as a method of control.
I have no doubt that the cathedral is aware of this, on a large scale. Hence all the red flag laws. Not to mention, the cathedral is put in place by female voters... and women routinely seek alternative means of control (i.e. manipulation) due to their inherent weakness.
Most "mental illness" is bullshit. 🍻
@doggel @basedbagel - This, exactly. 🫡
I think at least half of all "mental illnesses" are just personality types and mindsets.
When I was a young blue-pill lad, long long ago... I had mental problems - naturally. My worldview didn't fit reality, and it cause behavioral problems that seemed unsolvable until I changed my worldview.
What really struck me though, is how quickly and thoroughly that label discredited me as a person, to friends and colleagues. It hurt in a memorable fashion. ➡️
@basedbagel - If I could wave a magic wand, I would do away with prostitution. But sadly, there is no magic wand.
Prostitution will always exist, and can never be extinguished. It's older than society itself.
So with that in mind, I would legalize it and regulate it. At the same time, I would take women's rights away. The prostitution workforce would be composed of otherwise unwanted women - women that no man would claim as theirs.
@ButtWorldsMan - Damn, I hope that's fake.
I was wanting to have family fly in for a visit. And these are people I care about... 🤔 and now I kinda don't want them to fly.
@basedbagel - Sounds solid. Not having interference from her mother seems like a challenge under current circumstances. Maybe as things progress, it will become less of an obstacle.
I've heard that traditionally, the bride's family pays the dowry to the groom. Never made sense to me for the longest.
But that dowry paid by the bride's family, is something like a house-warming gift. And it goes to the groom, because he's the head of household - but it's intended to give the bride a good start.🍻
@UncleIroh - Are the elves being portrayed as an evil invading army, when they're trying to maintain their own sovereignty after numerous broken treaties, and be not gay? 🤔
@37712 @sardonicsmile - to clarify a hot take: losing her rights would be part of the bargain. If a freedom fighter is fighting the govt, then he's fighting the entirety of the govt - to include family courts and anyone seeking to enforce women's rights.
When breedable girls are getting drafted... It's Taliban time.
@37712 @sardonicsmile - That girl is already a war-bride. She can be the cathedral's war-bride. Or she can be a freedom-fighter's war-bride. Personally, I think she's better off with the freedom-fighter. More importantly, the cause of freedom is better off with the ability to reproduce.
So when a man is fighting to keep the likes of her out of the war, he's really just fighting the govt over a woman. He is fighting the govt over who owns that property.
Any armed man who loves freedom should.🥃
@37712 @sardonicsmile - Unpopular opinion - I would fight to keep this girl out of the war. 💪 Hear me out...
When the breeding age females are being drafted, that's go-time. It's apparent at that point, that they are up for grabs. And they might as well be bred by the likes of me - better than a senseless death in a senseless war.
And by then, war has already broken out between the strong men and those that would conscript them. So you might as well. New civilizations don't build themselves. 🍻
