I enjoyed the Tokyo Drift achievement in Sea of Thieves. I was running from a larger ship and naturally thought of going full steer around a rock and dropping anchor. It worked! We lived.

Presidents are men. Legislators are predominantly men. Representatives are predominantly men. Movie writers are predominantly men. Cartoon writers are predominantly men. Religious figures are predominantly men. Podcasters are predominantly men. Business executives are predominantly men. Doctors are predominantly men. PhDs are predominantly men. Police are predominantly men.

Homeowners are predominantly men. Vehicle owners are predominantly men. Earners in single-income households are predominantly men.

Violent criminals are predominantly men. Nonviolent criminals are predominantly men.

You are not the victim of feminism. You are in a country run by men, for men. Successful men are telling you “men can’t be successful” because of other citizens asking for equality. Successful male podcasters are telling you women are the problem while they profit off your viewership, promising to guide you to success. Successful male politicians are telling you being a man is a problem while actively eroding supportive programs as they profit off your vote, promising to fix the system. Would you trust financial advice from a loan shark? No, you’d assume the loan shark wants to keep you as a payday loan customer. These men are doing the same.

Men are not uniquely in jeopardy in the US. All citizens are. The country was a manufacturing superpower through the 1960s because they other industrialized nations were still rebuilding from being bombed. Once the others rebuilt, the US was only competitive, not dominative. Once transportation and logistics hit a point where global trade was truly reasonable, these countries all moved to exploit poor nations. This wasn’t an accident, this wasn’t a surprise. This was a calculated profiteering move by men. You are not the problem because you have a penis. You are the victim of multiple systems designed to keep you down, all while blaming someone else stuck in the same sinking ship. They’ll tell you China stole manufacturing when it was companies that gave it away. They’ll tell you illegal immigrants stole your job when it was business owners that knowingly hired undocs for less than minimum wage. They’ll tell you America was great in the 1950s and 1960s when it was the only industrial power not bombed in the 40s. They’ll tell you the economic decline from the 1980s was the globe’s doing when Americans specifically caused it.

I am sure your post was not deleted as anti-usa, but as pro-manosphere superficially put in a post about international studies. That smells like a bad-faith post. Those get deleted here, too. Sure, you can go pick a different instance and hop until you find that echo chamber again.

But ask yourself.
Who is the problem?
Who told you they’re the problem?
What doea that person stand to gain from that belief?

On android, I use Aurora Notifier for general alerts as well as user-reported sightings shown as dots on the map. I also use Aurora (Pro) for a nice map with current prediction overlay. I’ve gotten many alerts over the last ~2 years with very little viajble activity over my lower attitude. However, the notice that paired with the 10/10/24 event was about substorms. Those give ~30 minute warning.

Whatever you do, there’s a lot of false alarms. We’re headed back to a lower activity part of the solar cycle, but I’m still eager to keep an eye out because it’s still ~5 years before it comes back up to the current activity level.

And being a liar, he keeps telling his base he’s ended “8 plus” wars because they’re not going to bother fact checking that all were wars, that he had an actual role, and that they’re actually ended.

No, it’s not “soothing” to say “release the files that prove Trump raped children”. We say it because we still want to believe there is, in fact, a line too evil to cross for MAGAts. Something so despicable, it breaks their idol. Nothing else has worked properly yet. Will this?

I guess it’s different in a school system, but my line of work uses “Segregate” weekly in terms of separating defective product

I just wanna know what the party of “you don’t need all those book smarts” plans to replace “social justice” topics with instead. I bet it’s Christianity studies. And by studies, I mean indoctrinations.

The data used to create that image of the black hole had a transfer speed of 14GB/s because ~700TB of it was captured in Antarctica and spent 14 hours traveling by plane

Could be a right in the shower with a hand injury, struggling to figure out how the left hand works as they fumble the soap, wondering what else they’ve been so rightfully been accustomed to

It’s 84 in dog years though

That’s very fair. Not necessarily the screen itself or the mental effects, but the associated activities. I commented a bit blindly because I’m locked into a screentime lifestyle. Can’t do my job without 8 hours at a screen and the cheapest hobbies tend to be on another screen. I forget what I’ve had to incorporate into my habits to fight that sedentarianism. I’m still not great at avoiding it.

If you have good planning skills, then you realize you can’t predict the future, only plan for multiple routes. My parents have no intention of dying soon. The longer they live, the greater the chance of needing to pay for care for both declining health and incidental injuries. Will they end up in assisted living? Or will a fluke kill them just before admittance? Say they budget perfectly for 10 years of assisted living, give me the surplus, and dimentia kicks in to the point they need full nursing home care. What do I do, liquidate whatever I’ve used the funds for to return it to them? That’s trusting I even have enough cash and equity to convert.

So yes, they can do things now, but responsible planning in my country doesn’t involve going broke at 80. You may think something like “euthanize me before the home” but that concept is more fun when it’s decades away. I’ve watched dimentia, alzheimers, and neuropathy bring decline and have said the same. I bet you when I get up there, I won’t feel like I’m done here. That’s what leads people to think they’re better off dead. They won’t commit suicide, but a death caused by something outside of their control? Well, they can’t control that.

That’s why the US worked so hard to dethrone multiple other leaders deemed terrible by American values and not just military-weak, oil-rich nations to destabilize regions, right? Glad America freed the world of Putin, Netanyahu, Kim, and Xi.

Are screens bad or are the primary ideas about screen time based on when screens solely offered content to consume without interaction?

Because it comes out mirrored when recorded and replayed on stereo audio

This reminds me of the time on a field trip in a hilly campus when I seized the opportunity to roll down a sweet hill and then I was going too fast and couldn’t stop myself until it leveled out a hundred feet away and when I got up my classmates were gone because they left me

Morton’s toe, Greek foot. Studies vary because obviously the sample can be very biased, but it’s reported as occurring in about 22% of the global population

The knuckles at your palm roll down

Tesla is such a clear symptom of this. I love cars. I’m on the left. Both groups hate Tesla by majority. The left hates Musk and fascism. Car enthusiasts lean right and hate EVs for being boring/what they consider fascism (EV mandates that they don’t understand). The left reports they’ve left tesla for other EVs. The gearheads keep showing “proof” EV (Tesla) sales are down and the truck segment keeps showing how bad the cyber truck is. And yet, I continue to see brand new Teslas driving around. There’s a ~2023 model refresh on the 3/Y that makes them stand out. I see a different cyber truck almost daily (most I see are vinyl wrapped a different color to be unique).

They don’t give a shit about the big picture. It’s a personal-gain-today decision.

By me, the overnight temperature rises have usually come with precipitation behind it. The opposite has happened where temperatures drop after 9am with drier winds. I can’t exactly say it’s normal or that I’m particularly knowledgeable on the matter, but I’ve independently theorized it’s really just standing out now because I frequently look at hourly forecasts. Between hobbies and maintenance, I’m now interested in such a granular report. I didn’t always have to care this much and got by just fine with morning/afyernoon/evening/overnight
