@razibkhan the line of the jagat seths ends up wealthy anywhere (except for techbro failsons like me)
English
depends on the stream of indian immigrants
if agrawal, sure
i/o@avidseries
Jewish-Americans are at the very top for median net worth, but probably won't be for much longer because Indian-Americans earn considerably more income. The Jewish wealth edge exists because they have a longer history in the US, with more generational wealth accumulation.

@shinboson annoyingly, it's not even true. hijr and vasl are often used together but that's due to centuries of poetic tradittion instead of anything inherent to the language.

one can love one's own culture without hating the culture one is acculturated into.

urdu has a word for the pain of separation that contains, within it, the assumption that reunion is cosmically possible. while english is so spiritually bankrupt it can name the ache but not imagine its end.
English
@Duderichy if that is to drive a woman away, then it's best it does. if i had that good of a date with someone, i want to talk to them some more.

@jhana_bro he could even pull that off he had a 52" shoulder measurement and a 32" waist.

@WhyEnggWhy Yud not dressing in a way designed specifically to signal “nerd who thinks he’s the smartest man alive and above all social standards of presentation” would go a long way
English
this is my thesis for miri then:
- put yud on test, tren, and ozempic. get a nutritionist and a trainer. no more looking like reddit's last powermod.
- soares is small but can look good. no more dork hair, only test/tren, and good fits.
- hire a sane, good-looking comms director

There should be a version of ‘earn to give’ that’s something like ‘get pretty to persuade’ I can’t think of a way to say this that doesn’t feel mean, but I think if you have a cause you really care about, and are lacking in basic hygiene practices, you’re leaving money on the table We’re wired to take fitter & more hygienic/presentable people more seriously than someone who eg clearly needs a shower and a hair cut. You may not want the world to work that way, but it just does I’m a little worried I’m going to get torn apart for posting this, but I genuinely want to see the people working on important causes have the best fighting chance to achieve their goals

@HMBrough_ is the fob situation that bad in those places (he said while barely speaking dutch in belgium) because here there are issues but the desi fobs are not as bad or visible as some other groups
English
If you’re a brown guy, you need to avoid
1) Cities with a large FOB population (eg Seattle, SF, Vancouver, Toronto)
2) Cities where interracial socialization is frowned upon (eg Dallas, Nashville, Atlanta)
Everywhere else is usually doable if you’ve got things in order.

Here is a recipe for what makes dating in a city a disaster specifically for Indian men: - High Asian population (especially if Chinese) - Tons of unvetted Indian immigrants (ie: Toronto) - Overabundance of dorky incel White guys - Culture leans more dorky than cool/partying
English
@olivertraldi you know it's not buildings he will post pictures of
English
"Lindy West" sounds like the name of a Paul Skallas fan account that posts pictures of medieval European buildings all day

@GarrettPetersen @Jebriel They're calling them the worst pancakes ever tasted

My children consistently refer to this as "maple syrup."

oh come on! miri is not going to be doing shit with the leadership looking like him and yud. get a karpathy or a mira murthy figure onboard asap.

Aella is taller than Nate Soares

@Yeenie_Mcbeenie even mort ends up with ysabell who is mentioned as being a bit fat. definitely something to it.
English
I’ve talked about this, but if you read Terry Prachett, there’s something deeply earnest about his love of fat women
VARIEN@varien
the "perverts make great art" thing going around is actually the best critique of AI art anyone's stumbled into. kojima's voyeurism, tarantino's teenage-geek kinks, or yoko taro saying he designed 2B because he likes to look at beautiful women: all of these people are auteurs of incredible bodies of work honesty about desire creates trust, trust is what lets an audience surrender to the work. AI prompts contain the language of desire but no psyche generating it the model averages millions of people's wanting into a statistical mean, which reads as no one's wanting. the output is technically impressive yet energetically flat great art requires someone willing to be confident where others are embarrassed
English
@IonaItalia we've all been there in honesty. and fair enough too, imo. ideally we wouldn't debase ourselves at all, but if one were to do so at all, there's few better reasons for it than love.
English
I'm addicted to the Lindy West discourse. You see, I too have debased myself in order to keep a man who wasn't worth keeping. This trainwreck makes me feel less ashamed of myself because I was NOTHING like as stupid and the guy in question NOTHING like as evil as in this story.
Dilan Esper@dilanesper
One other quick Lindy West point. If you abstract out of the particular circumstances of polycules, "woman goes along with stuff she really doesn't want to do because she doesn't want to lose her man" is one of the oldest stories in the world, and a not particularly feminist one.
English
@AmzBoogie not the london islamist thinking of a caliphate. one month off the dole, and you'd be singing god save the king.
English
In my caliphate these men would be publicly executed, their heads placed on a spike, lining the roads leading to my great nation
English
@d1tzydis0rdered If that is what you see, then that is lovely. Good on you. But in the broader culture, how much of that do you see? You don't see bucktoothed men or women being made underwear models, for example, although that'd be lovely.
English
@WhyEnggWhy Maybe that’s what you see bc that’s all you pay attention too?🤷♀️ A lot of the body positive post I see on my tiktok are women expressing their insecurities like teeth or shoulders. I’ve also literally say a video this morning of a girl saying she was embracing her curly hair.
English
fun idea: let's play along!
under this tweet, i will share three main claims from the video, and you can vote accordingly. to keep things simple for the poll, just decide if you mostly agree / disagree / are in the middle (twitter polls do not leave room for nuance unfortunately)

@d1tzydis0rdered @lexercise_ the purpose of a system is what it does. you don't see a bunch of scarred representation in the name of body positivity, for example. you see fat people mostly, and maybe someone with vitiligo every once in a while.
English
@lexercise_ Body Positivity isn't just about "Im skinny" "Im fat". ITs about height, acne, birthmark, scars, disabilities, hair texture, etc. I hate when people act like its just a bunch of "fat" people claiming to say "Im happy to be fat".
