The best place is 4chan, where everyone is equally horrible. It's the most authentic place on the internet.

Plenty of close minded people here too lmao

There been plenty of times of history where young guys got sent to some war and a lot of them died virgins. The human race is built such that you don't need a lot of guys to bounce back and propagate after a calamity, seemingly by design. So in that sense, if you die a virgin the world will move on just fine without you. It doesn't matter to anyone but you. No one is going to save you. So why not just go for it? I will always recommend that you just make it a goal instead of crying about it. Goals are done in stages and actionable steps. You will eventually achieve your goal if you set your mind to it. If you are a loser then stop being a loser. Go to the gym, develop your skills, talk to people, etc. Circumstances might make it marginally more difficult for you compared to other guys, but what's holding you back is your mindset. Also dude, remember we live in the 21st century. Never been a better time in human history to meet a breath of girls. People in past times had nowhere near the same opportunities for sex. You just need to seize the opportunity. It's on you if you miss out. That is the most important thing I want to impress on you. It's your choice. Either you make a choice to get what you want or you won't.

Fotball wished it fans had the stamina and conviction of communists. There's nothing you can tell them that'll stop making them root for communism. -
Discussions like this just show how people are incapable of holding multiple thoughts at once. Elon Musk is a visionary but he's also a slime ball in an era of orange excess. Elon deserves some criticism but also hate the game, not the player.

Communism makes good critique of capitalism but are too idelogical to work politically, like that time the Soviet army was rankless. Communism goes hand in hand with starvation and lack because fully centralized allocation of goods tends to be bad at predicting need. Many hands carry more. -
Being liberal doesn't inherently mean seeing political disagreement as moral, and which should be punished on an institutional level. That is what characterizes wokiesm specifically. You can be liberal leaning and have more right-wing stances on immigration for example. The internet tends to simplify ideas and people into kids cartoon characters to be more memeable. Wokiesm is destined to die out soon. It already peaked ca. during the late 2010s and during covid. The thing is, wokiesm represents a tiny minority of people, mostly upper middle-class managerial types who seek more power and authority. Wokiesm goes hand in hand with telling people how to behave. It's not a coincidence that woke folk tend to have connection with or are part of concultancy businesses. Even in academia, most people there aren't really woke. They just don't bother speaking up because it's not worth dealing with the insanity. Most people can recognize that wokiesm is illiberal in principle despite being left-leaning in essence, which makes it hard to take seriously. Browbeating people into fitting certain skewed ideals is never going to work.

Nice, but that's objectively a brutal conversation rate. On gay apps, when you match it's straight to business.

How many of those 700 resulted in actual dates?

Maybe finding a hooker isn't such a bad idea in your situation, if only to blow off some steam, before you lose your mind. The hardest part of hookers is finding one attractive enough in my experience. They tend to be quiet washed up looking.

It's sounds like justifying essentially a Christian view of animals. That humans are innately superior and that humans have god given right to exploit animals (literally). Descartes was catholic. Modern Christians are more amicable to animal rights. If you believe that humans are animals, then this line of thinking is obviously wrong, because you know that humans suffer and feel pain. Therefor animals must suffer too. It's just a question of how and to what degree relative to the makeup of one's physiology.

Haha, I knew it!!! Magic a million from behind my ear.

What do you do exactly? You give magician vibes.

The main value of that expense is the fire it lits under your ass. If you can motivate yourself, you probably don't need that course, assuming it's legit in the first place.

It's finally got a price and release date (about a stack). https://store.steampowered.com/hardware/steammachine I'd really want one but it's a little expensive to justify when I already have a decent PC. For once a PC that isn't a giant RGB monster. Really bad timing with AI though, hence the price. Power users (Redditors) will scoff at the performance but it's statistically an upgrade for what the average gamer actually has.

Culture war IS ragebait, like how cheese is made of milk. Being ragebait makes it less real if anything. Day to day reality isn't that emotionally activating. The antidote to culture war is going outside. It's mostly engagement farming for profit and the terminally online who get way too much energy out of arguing over shit.

+ Epic gives free games once a week. Most of them are trash but occasionally you'll get an actual game you'll put some hours in. Gaming has better value now than ever before.

Looks like a giant dildo in the background

I really dislike how post-modernism is abused to qualify nonsense. It's probably one of the most abusable philosophies. A lot of the time it's used to justify ideology. It's why Russia loves it. Wokies atleast are a little genuine, but even there it's used for gaining leverage over people (for the upper middle class+ primarily).

There's little to debate. Your just wrong.

Game over man, game over!!!

Digital licenship is fine. Massive value through digital stores. Can get really cheap too, especially if you exploit Steam keys. There's only been a handful of times where it's been used in consumer unfriendly ways, and arguably those times have always been illegal. Laws need to catch up to the digital age in general though.

Idk. I think it's largely fake and exaggerated for clicks.

Relationships and pick-up are different skillsets, but it's funny going "adress me 🐘" to the former pick-up guy. They won't let you get away with going normie.
