I think if you taught kids a certain amount of softness - and partly through empathy for THEM - you’d have guys who were just the loud goofy humor aspect, not the domestic abuser or xenophobic sadist part.

I feel like there’s a certain amount of violence that’s very male and if you’re taught some things it plays out as goofy humor. A guy who would never dream of hurting an animal drives a truck through watermelons and it’s the funniest thing ever. But the flip side is really dark, there’s this fine line where even the humor finds a weaker target for self justified torture.

"Can't you hear the screaming in the streets? It's..."
*krrsh* *dakka dakka dakka*
"BLOCKWAR!"

I say this a lot but I'll say it again. My Dad worked for NASA for a while, before I was born, so he definitely raised me with, this is the COUNTRY'S space program, it's gonna do great things and benefit all of us. We're shooting for the moon and smiling Jackie's driving by, etc. Which means now I really couldn't give a flying clusterfuck about what's now another profit opportunity for some rightwing multibillionaire rather than something that might help with any environmental or social issues.

well this company I might get a contract job with sure are the scum of the planet helping make the Seattle area less and less livable. Guess I need to fill out their application paperwork.

"Would you consider working at Amazon warehouse?"

Why yes. It ranks somewhere between "work in a Target warehouse" and "beg for money next to an I-5 onramp" as jobs I would enjoy. Closer to the latter.

ancient Greeks: hey Alonysios, hey, check out my awesome new cuirass, it makes me look AWESOMELY RIPPED

renaissance Germans: hey Hans-Peter, seh um meines TOLLES NEUES PANZER, I'm wearing this AWESOME SLASHED shirt and have a huge codpiece!

I really hate how acid reflux has gotten worse with age. Fried fairly bland stuff 2-3 hours from bedtime is as bad as I used to get from chorizo burritos and margaritas.

"Conan, what is best in life?"
"I like it vhen dhere is only a little dressing and dhey put da sourkraut betveen da cheese and da pastrami so it doesn't get da rye bread all soggy."
"That is good!"

Like this jian stuff is just foil! I know this style basically! There’s much more turned bodies because you’re trying to guard your crotch and move more perpendicular axis which foil doesn’t have but wing tsun does. If I could find a sifu I could pick this up in no time!

This old magazine is really getting me interested in trying to do gong fu again. I keep seeing photos of stuff which just makes sense from capoeira or in one case fencing! It just seems less mystical and more like how bodies move. ‘Course, all martial arts are on hold right now due to lack of money, and when employed, time and energy.

It’s amazing how many states have recently become places I would never want to live, or at least have made it clear that never living there was dodging a bullet.

When you're rich, you're effectively smart. Money purchases brilliant financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, engineers and sales people; it buys you enough investments that at least one is going to make you look like a genius when it pays off big-time. Actually being charming or smart is a bonus; just being NOT dumb and NOT jerky ensures you'll be rolling in it.

I mention this because the world's second richest man is basically a stereotypical right-wing teenaged Redditor.

#subtoot everyone wants to visit Nice on the French Riviera, but it's a lot more affordable to visit Pas Si Nice, only a few miles further down the beach

somehow I went from "let's listen to Prince" to "I could use some of this time to go to Aberdeen and be depressed there instead"

Come on over and do the twist, aaaaahaaa!
Overdo it and have a fit, aaaahhaa!
Come on over and shoot the shit, aaaahaaa!
Love you so much it makes me sick, aaahaa!
