I know and I agree with you. It's just that I associate that news story as being popular with left leaning people and wasn't expecting right leaning people to have mostly the same exact response. I generally also think politics is less about thinking critically about what you support and instead it's more or less supporting your football team / being an eye for an eye. Everyone is something like my body my choice, but they disagree heavily on where that's applicable. The right is will say that when it comes time for mandatory vaccines while the left won't, but the left will say that for abortion but the right won't.
I don't know if right leaning people support terrorism to the degree that left leaning people do. Not to be biased, I just haven't seen it. Maybe they do it in a synonymous way, but I haven't thought deeply about that.
I haven't seen right leaning people do anything other than the specific personal anecdote of saying you should be allowed to make illegal firearms with a 3D printer. With left leaning people I've seen them support firebombing cars in the name of BLM / hating Elon Musk, supporting literal terrorists like with Hasan Piker / blindly saying "from the river to the sea," (pro genocide statement), and calling for violent revolutions to install communism. Plus I don't see the right openly making casual death threats as much as the left like H3 saying the NRA should be bombed or people saying XYZ should be "minecrafted."

Seeking help is one of the reasons, but estrogen does make you more neurotic and prone to mental illness. Testosterone makes you less emotional (but quicker to anger) and you're right that men are expected to be lone wolves. There's actually a phenomenon called normative male alexythimia were men are more likely to be conditioned to have alexithymia, meaning they struggle to verbalize and feel their emotions. Like for me right now I'm sitting at home typing a comment. Am I relaxed, at peace, serene? I don't know I just feel okay.
I did say already why men commit suicide more often but attempt less, but there are lots of reasons on top of that. Men being external problem solvers by default and by expectation doesn't help, you can't fix your life by just making more money or drinking for example. A controversial take I've seen that might have some validity is that many men who take their lives don't actually have symptoms of mental illness. You'd think suicidality requires a mental defect like an illness, but for some men they just decide their life isn't worth living.

I based that off of seeing everyone who said that getting downvoted, even in right leaning circles. I lurk on the conservative subreddit even though I'm more of a centrist and they supported it too. Plus, there was that photo of a nice older lady who I believe made a cutesy sign supporting the killing, I only saw support on twitter, and everyone in my niche was happy about it. Someone I know even made a flash game based on it.

That's assuming female me isn't a sub 5 like I probably am right now. Funny you mention suicide. Women are way more likely to have suicidal ideation and attempt suicide, but men are way more likely to succeed since they choose more fatal methods. Women are more exposed to emotion and that's one of the reasons women have more mental illnesses than men. Plus therapy was basically designed with women in mind as most of Jung's patients were women. When people think of body image issues they aren't thinking of body builders who are training excessively because they're "not ripped enough."
But I don't agree with most of what you're saying. The things I was pointing out are true of the average woman and the things you're pointing out aren't objective. There's leagues of reasons why every woman isn't doing what you said. I definitely don't believe women have zero expectations placed on them. I mean come on, "women don't feel pain?" They go through periods and one of the worst pains imaginable which is birth. Also you don't need to get jacked to get a girlfriend, that's an unrealistic expectation that you don't have to accept. I'm a lot happier knowing that I can do what I do to look healthy and not shoot that high.

Anon's keyboard was slightly overdue for a cleaning
https://youtu.be/XScUYxLFt-U?si=WOvxL97NF0lLNYJ3
This is a video I saw on these things a while ago. They're supposed to be ergonomic to the extreme and people like putting alternate keyboard layouts on them which is why you don't see any of the keys labeled. If I remember correctly the main benefit is that the keyboard is designed to minimize movement. Typing on a regular keyboard you're moving your hands and stretching your fingers constantly, this doesn't have much of that.

Inspired by that Abby post earlier, what is the BEST female character design in gaming history?
I feel like I can't pick one, because if I say something like Quiet I'm essentially saying Stefanie Joosten. All the other examples I'm thinking of are either just normal women like Elana from Uncharted or the designs are ever shifting like Samus.
Now that I think about it, Zelda (the series and character) have had good designs with their women. Never afraid to present them the way that suits their role in the story just like the men. Zelda, Impa, the Gerudo, the twin witches, Saria, Malon, Midna, the Great Fairies, etc. All of them are iconic and varied. Hard to pick one, but Malon, TP Zelda, imp form Impa, and Tetra are my favorites.

I understand that he was trying to go for a revenge plot, but the entire magic of that first game was in how you as Joel were developing a father daughter relationship with Ellie. It just was not the turn the franchise needed, or at least not the play you open that game with. Would have been ten times as effective if the game was about continuing to strengthen that bond with Joel as Ellie and then slap you in the face with another massive climax.

Anon questions one of life’s greatest mystery’s
Scouts honor, I only skip over the scenes where it's two guys kissing or when a guy is getting hard fucked raw. I still want to watch Brokeback Mountain though.

Anon questions one of life’s greatest mystery’s
It makes sense if it's done for effect like showing how awkward the characters are or they have a joke planned, but yeah seeing to rich actors rub on each other in skin colored thongs pretending they like it and they know what sex is does nothing. Wolf of Wall Street has tons of sex scenes and wastes no time with them, especially because they narrate over them. Just showing the before and after is all you need.
Good writing advice will tell you to cut the fat and if something does nothing to advance the plot then it shouldn't be in there. You can almost always skip over the bumping uglies part and miss nothing because you don't need a minute to get the point across that they banged.

It would be awesome if my dick fell off, blood sprays from my pussy every month for a week, I had to wear a specialized piece of clothing on my chest just to go for a run, I gain like 10% body fat percentage, I get more emotional / stressed easier, I have an irrational fear of alleyways, be five inches shorter, pretend that I like eating acrid cum, my competitive drive sinks, always be cold, experience more pain generally...
All that and more just so I can have like five orgasms instead of two and live about six years longer on average on this God forsaken planet.

People love vigilante justice and seem to never see a problem with it. When the CEO assassination happened people had no qualms about murder being a means to an end, but it was massively unpopular to say murder is wrong. I get that these people aren't the best, but Lady Justice is blind for a reason.

I still don't get why anyone has a problem with that. If it were a 30 year old and a 16 year old you're looking at definite negative mental health affects for that teenager and some kind of abuse or manipulation going on. Add ten years and the weirdest thing of that scenario should be the 30 year old graduated when the 26 year old entered highschool, which isn't to say that's a massively weird thing.
These people see numbers and automatically assume an imbalance and they're not entertaining the idea that a 26 year old, man or woman, can have a fair and loving relationship with someone who's slightly older.
This is what happens when you offload all your thinking to tech or social media and you never mature properly. Not that it's necessarily anyone's fault because zoomers, particularly adult ones, have been failed and are being told they have to figure it out for themselves. That's why people are increasingly too anxious to order a pizza over the phone, this dumb policing of other people's relationships, and a whole heap of other problems.

What is your juiciest "conspiracy"
Wagyu meat isn't that way because the cows are fat, it's a special Japanese cow (there's three others, but one is used for over 90% of Wagyu meat) that has a unique marbling due to the breeding and all the high quality care that goes into maintaining that structure of intramuscular fat. Part of that involves making sure they don't exercise. Those breeds are exclusive to Japan and trace back thousands of years. Part of the reason this happened is because Japan is smaller and it has a lot of rocky, uneven land that minimizes the available room for cattle. This means they play into this strength by making a luxury product that gets better the less room the cattle has.
America bas around 20 beef cattle breeds and none of them are Wagyu. There are some American Wagyu out there but that's because they crossbred them, no full blood Wagyu cattle. You can't import Wagyu cattle to America and you can't get it's beef graded authentically.
Not to grill you on not being curious on how things work, especially the food you eat, but things like this are something you can find out if you're curious enough.

I agree, but I don't know by how much. Whenever you have a highly concentrated culture or group get watered down by another highly concentrated culture it rarely goes well. Sometimes things go pretty well in the long run so long as each sub faction of the group stay respectful of each other.
Speaking from experience with girls entering the BSA, people were worried at first but things really didn't change. Sure the fears came true rarely, but the boys remained your typical boys. Plus there would be wonderful people who fit in that organization perfectly that weren't allowed before.
But I do feel like immigration is an entirely different conversation. You're not dealing with bronies posting on your board or girls who want to learn knot tying. Sure there's families who are trying to chase the American dream, but this is during a time where everyone admits that dream is long gone. I don't even know how people place their empathy for families over their neighbors who are dying from fentanyl that gets trafficked in their streets.

Anon is a Star Wars fan
It got more serious as time went on, I remember season 6 to be where hijinks wasn't the main concern anymore and that's probably because the creator stopped being the showrunner after season 5.
I think you had to grow up with it, but there definitely are more unique mature themes that come up every so often. I think it's appropriate because the show starts with Finn being 12 and ends with him being 17, so the show starts off being le epic awesomeness and matures while keeping it's wackiness. There's even an episode that has the entire main cast of Futurama which you would only appreciate if you were old enough for that show.
I remember the Hall of Egress being a good one for that. Finn entered a hall where if he left and opened his eyes he would teleport back to the moment he entered the hall. It builds themes on paranoia, needing to let go of people to be independent, and not needing to be desperate for / obsess about the right way forward.

Got to love 4chan, this single post forced the Doom subreddit mods to change Sub icon and banner
I haven't played the DLC so I am speaking about the pre DLC days, but I am aware of the Mohg "apologize to him," meme. I do know about Radahn and Miquella though.
People really do love to be high and mighty about progressive issues until it comes time to jack off to it, that's when it seems like the masks come off and no one cares about their values. I've seen how people fetishize racism and even anti-natalists who have a breeding kink.

You can research what I said bro, I can't find studies or facts on sub 5 women finding their looksmatch. If you're going to say "nobody cares and you will be ridiculed," in this discussion not only are you part of the problem by not being a good teammate so to speak, you're shooting your self in the foot by claiming to care about men while putting one down for having a different viewpoint than you. Notice how I'm not resulting to ad hominems and generalizations like women can always fall back on just marrying men to support themselves?
Plus women live longer for multiple reasons, the singularity of them living an extra six or so years isn't focused on them experiencing less physical trauma. To name a few they work in less dangerous jobs, they're less likely to be homeless (3/4 homeless are men last I checked), less likely to be alcoholics / drink, maybe they live healthier lives, and biologically women just have an advantage since estrogen might combat heart disease among other things.
