Was it Russel Brand or Morbius who had a cringey jesus cult? They all blend together.

A lot of non-whites moved in within a relatively short time frame, undermining cultural unity. It's ethnic. People became insecure about their country's border being secure. Muslims don't separate church and state to the same degree. That is a fundamental ideological difference. Terrorism.

Compassionate listener types tend to be doormats in my experience. Like they keep hanging out with druggos and bums and act like their therapist.

so an introverted doormat lol

Pooh bear got his dih stuck in the honey pot 😂

So 44 hours at work + 10 hours of coursework + x hours of homework You got limited minutes bro. Maybe you should cut down on somethings for the time being. It's just a temporary phase. It might help to do more active rest, activities that give you energy specific to you, like getting a massage or going for a nature walks.

Job simulators are plenty popular right now. You don't need drama for it to sell.

I also thought it was kind of a waste of good commentary to be a crime drama essentially.

No, it's a feature of post-industrial capitalism. Feminism is a modern ideology that stems from liberalism, which are relatively recent inventions. Hunter-gatherers are definitely not feminist. They laugh at the idea. The relative egalitarianism of hunter-gatherers is more a product of scarcity. Not true altruism. There's still division of labor and status. Human nature is whatever it needs to be. Treating women like equals is the exception, not the norm. Consider that slavery was perfectly normal and okay for almost as long as we've had civilizations. That is the extent we went to in order to survive. Feel good fantasies does you no good about appreciating the gravity of the situation.

You got it backwards. Survival -> progress. The better you get at survival, the less brutal you need to be in order to survive. You have feminism by virtue of standing on the shoulders of giants.

It was a rebellion against Trump. Nothing has fundamentally changed, so people are still likely going to vote against mainstream center-left politics in the future.

Because we live in luxury. Ukraine shows that when life becomes more capricious, people revert to more traditional forms of labor division. Its a matter of survival. Being a mother and being away from home all the time are incompatible. Women needing to earn a salary directly undermines fertility. Its hard to raise kids that are not relationally starved in some way and even harder to raise more than a couple.

Traditional gender roles is just division of labor that aligns with biology. The harder survival is, the more you need to lock in into certain roles. In comparison, clocking into the "gen z and a mini" factory is almost fake as far as work goes.

My mom used to tell of how her aunt, who was a housewife, would cook really amazing meals. The advantage of that kind of division of labor is that you can really lock in. Homecooked meals used to mean something. Now we only have time for frozen pizzas and ready made al dente. Keep in mind that my mom is someone who likes to and is good at cooking, but you can't compete with the logistic of a stay at home.

I love the insight about how abundance mindset is sorta bullshit. It really cuts into the self-improvement/hippie culture you see everywhere. Abundance mindset is kinda like toxic positivity in practice. Like, if you miss out on your dream girl because your too scared to talk to her, you can have an abundance mindset and say that it doesn't matter, but the reality is that you missed out on her and you'll never get another opportunity. Physical reality is finite. Animals wouldn't need to act starved if that wasn't the case.
