There's a different vibe when it's a choice, I guess. Obviously, if you need ozempic in the first place it's kind of a skill issue (besides due to having specific health issues like diabetes). I'm more optimistic, if only that it makes weightloss feel more achievable such that they become actually serious about. But it's still early days.

I hate how Google prioritizes Reddit search results so much now, besides AI summaries being 40-100% based of Reddit comments. Sometimes the first page is nothing but Reddit. Utter trash. -
I actually think Dota is probably the more chad game to wizardmaxx. That's shit's hard. That and CS. Way more pathetic to play some gacha gooner game for 1000+ hours. If Dr. K had 1000s of hours into Genshin Impact, Fate, etc. his opinions would be as good as worthless.

How long have you been using them?

"People are saying", IE. 1-2 comments of Reddit. -
Sounds like a you problem ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's much much worse for wasting time. They are literally designed to be addictive. People play for 1000s of hours while neglecting making something of their lives. It's way more problematic. The entire media environment can easily slopify your life, but porn gets singled out as uniquely evil despite only taking a fraction of people's time relative to other forms of entertainment on average.

What do you think this is? The distinction that lust is inherently bad is a Christian concept. It's an invention.

The internet has twisted something completely natural into a moral panic. It's crazy. Btw gaming is much more problematic as a form of coping strategy. Much more normalized and available. If you have solid goals you got better things to do than jerk off all day. I've read somewhere that people who identify with nofap are at an above average risk of depression. Take into account that most nofapers are also Redditors, which is the worst social media platform in terms of mental health outcomes. It is conformist brainrot that makes failure the goal for sick people.

You can tell a man's age by how expensive his shaving gear is.

AI search, IE. microwave reheated Reddit 😊👍 We are in the age of slop. -
What else would I be using it for? Besides my balls 😂 It's the tip of the chin and mustache that are troublesome. I find it bulky and hard to reach around the nooks of the nose.

The weakest aspect of many liberals and feminists I find the propencity to just ignore and deny things like biology or nature because it's too ugly. It's like getting lost in compassion as an absolute truth when it's just another state of many. -

There's actually a positive evolutionary pressure for women to be submissive since they end up having more children. All of human history is indicative of such. Periods where women are politically equal to men is historically an anomaly, only afforded by unprecedented technological development. The fact that feminists tend have the fewest children is quiet indicative. Like this phenomena of women freezing during rape. If you think about it, it makes more sense for women to evolve to not fight their rapist tooth and claw because they are the one's that end up reproducing. Stockholm syndrome is pure survival when a woman gets raped and kidnapped by another tribe. She ends up a loving wife and all the happier for it. Brutal efficiency based on how our biology is shaped. It has a lot to do with the fact that we are warm blooded mammalians, where it's common for females to be smaller than males, with long gestation periods. Human nature would look a lot different if we laid eggs. -
Recently jumped on the safety razor bandwagon because I've heard it gives a closer shave and is cheaper. Been using for about a week or so, and I have to honestly say I'm kinda disappointed. It doesn't really shave any closer, but is way harder to use and takes much longer while my skin is more irritated and getting nicked. It's also much harder to shave my balls with. And in my case isn't particularly much cheaper. I have very little facial hair and I've been reusing disposable razors without issue my entire life. A Bic pack can last me about half a year easily. I've spent more on buying a safety razor than I've done on disposable blades in years. If I have to spend even more on high quality lather to make it work then I'm definitely not saving much money. They are supposedly good for shaving legs with though. Ladies?

I doubt his gamer cred. He comes off as if he studied gamer terminology but never actually touched a controller. He has massive "howdy fellow kids" energy. "Depression is like fighting an Elden Ring boss" 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ But kudos for connecting with young people. And it triggers the "self-help is a scam" crowd, which is always a good thing. I've gotten good value out of him.
