  • Perfect.

    As an allegedly misandrist, man-feminist critical of Men’s culture broadly, I am telling you this: these are the only two things you need to believe in.

    I am tasking you with the responsibility of simply wanting a better society. If you see any person being harassed or chauvenistic or socially ignored because they’re not “in the club,” man or woman, and no matter the debate on which demographics tend to do what more often—if you have the heroic urge to help someone, that’s all you need.

    This might sound a bit like I’m asking you to do something you already do, but if that’s true, that’s even better! A lot of people out there think of themselves as heroes but are easily swept away from the call to action by things like the bystander effect or simply not wanting to rock the boat. I believe in your ability to stand up and help people.

    Also, I am surprised by your straightforwardness. I appreciate that, lol. :)









  • What did she mean?

    She meant god.

    If you listen to some people talk about evolution or ancient mysteries of the body, they love describing things by their supposed purpose.

    I had a long argument with somebody once, trying to convince them that sex wasn’t for babies, even though that’s what it often results in.

    So like, evolutionarily, sex produces babies, that’s why “it” “cares.” But, a bird doesn’t need to know what sex is or why it should want a baby to be motivated to do the thing that makes one. Similarly, a bee doesn’t need to know that it’s spreading pollen around, it just wants that sweet little flower juice.

    I don’t remember why this argument was important to have, but I do remember them just not getting the distinction between “does” and “meant to.”




  • is to do a comparison between them and come to the conclusion that the two things are very different.

    Mate, they did that. That’s exactly what they did, and they told us how.

    repeat all steps until you have the number of items desired

    Holllld the fuck. My self checkout has a loose limit of 25 items, who the hell is getting 20 items from a vending machine?

    Ah, but you’re forgetting the emotional labor of forcing your lips to say “hi” while awkwardly shifting your eyes away from the cashier because after 20 years of life in your lonely, desolate suburban wasteland with nothing to do, nowhere to go, and no people to see, you’ve grown unimaginably socially anxious and you’ve completely forgotten how to talk to anyone.

    Frankly, I think you’re just a luddite, or something. You… hate… barcode scanners, just admit it.


  • Incels scorn society and the world for making them ugly, no powerful jawline, no American Pie sex adventures in high school, and no nice suits to wear to their minimum wage jobs. To incels, they are the forgotten scum of the earth.

    Well, The Joker is a film about an abused, poor, and lonely comedian getting his face kicked in by teenagers about a month before rising up, killing a late night tv host, and vengefully breaking Society down into chaos and misery.

    So, they just think The Joker makes them look cool. That’s really it. Every time they think about shooting up an elementary school, they also think about Arthur Fleck gunning down Murray Franklin.
