@PatrickByrne She was right. She was describing the Covid tyranny.

I know philosophers who dine out their whole career in exposition of the brilliant Hannah Arendt. When COVID-19 hit, every single one kept his mouth shut.

@MilesTrav Meeting and getting intimate with random strangers on internet is creepy.

While it is true that some people meet on the internet and get married, it's not a great solution overall. Since every regular social space has been obliterated, we really need to figure out how to get men and women to meet each other. No, the bar doesn't cut it.

@Drew_Scarlet98 I would say something about women, if foot is in another shoe. It is wise to think about giving up your independence and identity to be supported by someone else.

When he vented to his family, the reaction was brutally divided. His old-school father told him that giving up his income to let his wife support him would completely strip away his masculinity and authority as the man of the house.

A friend of mine is facing a massive crossroads in his marriage. His wife just got a major corporate promotion that triples her salary, but it requires her to travel constantly. Last night, she officially proposed that he quit his job to become a full-time stay-at-home dad.

@KhananiShingan1 Yes

being a woman over 30 who has opinions and doesn't care about male attention is the easiest way to trigger a misogynist

@Ryan_Daigler Wow well said

Narcissists thrive on creating a stressful environment because it keeps others off balance and easier to control. The constant unpredictability, criticism, or manufactured conflict puts people into a state of hypervigilance—always waiting for the next blow-up, silent treatment, or guilt trip. That stress isn’t an accident; it’s part of their strategy. By keeping you emotionally drained and distracted, they make it harder for you to think clearly, set boundaries, or recognize the manipulation for what it is.

@the_ceo99 My trash pickup has absent or late for four months. They can’t find workers. My trash man broke his arm and they haven’t found a replacement.

@the_ceo99 Except, today men aren’t taking on highly dangerous jobs by the bucketfuls. They have admin jobs at a laptop and desk like women. Are they coming home to the weekend repairing the roof, the plumbing and doing intense gardening? Maybe not.

“Women deal with periods, pregnancy, and menopause.” Men deal with shorter life expectancy, the most dangerous jobs, war, higher suicide rates, and the constant expectation to provide and protect. Men don’t complain because they’re built to carry heavier loads. But go ahead and tell us how hard your period is. The world runs on male sacrifice, not female discomfort. Men’s struggles don’t get parades; they get expectations.

@Luv_Xcuses They want it all

Why do some men want modern women to contribute financially but still expect traditional gender roles at home?

@cutecats_____ No he doesnt

Dad has to babysit his babies and he doesn’t look happy with that 😂

@muheediva01 Well said.

You cannot spend years breaking a child's spirit and then expect a few words in adulthood to repair what took years to destroy. You cannot teach a child to fear your footsteps, your voice, your moods, and your anger, then expect them to see you as a source of comfort later in life.

@catsareblessing Yes they do, your part of their tribe

Setting up a camera above my bed to see if my cats sleep with me all night

@PAcumbria They do know your triggers. So don’t be honest and forthcoming, they have no respect for that

Narcissists know exactly how to push your buttons because they spent so much time learning what hurts, frustrates, and triggers you.

@PrezLives2022 Lies like her daddy

So Ivanka claims she came across this island swimming in the Mediterranean and she came ashore barefoot to explore the islands😂😂 Here is the problem with this: First, the island is in the Adriatic Sea. Secondly, the Albanians say the island is full of snakes making her barefoot story implausible. Lastly, in the words of Steve Schmidt, the island is full of landmines thus making her extremely lucky or a liar. I’m going with liar.

@dystopiangf true the right does not like beaucracy and does not dream of public service, they like business.the left does not mind beauocracy

Part of why the right struggles to seize institutional power is that most of their high iq, cutthroat sociopaths go into fields like finance & corporate law instead of government. It really has been a blessing for the left that their sociopaths dream of bureaucracy

@realCarola2Hope Yep

Reminder: Donald Trump Jr. married the daughter of Jeffrey Epstein’s personal banker. The Trump family didn’t drain the swamp. They married into it.

@JezziiB Yep

No girl is born dreaming of motherhood. That idea is taught. From dolls to toy strollers, girls are conditioned early for caregiving and reproduction, while boys aren’t. We’re taught this is our purpose, yet the risks of pregnancy and childbirth, even death, are rarely acknowledged. This isn’t instinct. It’s social conditioning.

@wine_x13 Make sure you help. Do some grocery shopping, take turns meal prep.

@karenmitchell__ Yes on all of the above. Don’t share. Don’t share where your heart is, what your passionate or excited about(big no) , don’t share what your vulnerable about( they will use it against you)

In the case of a narcissist/psychopath: 1. Sharing with them something you are vulnerable about is like handing them a weapon. 2. Discussing something you are passionate about is a source for them of potential sadistic pleasure in terms of sabotaging your happiness around this passion. 3. Telling them about something you’ve done wrong is a source of leverage. 4. Discussing something in them that concerns you is a greenlight for them to start undermining you to others without your knowledge.

@drizzylitfw Cat is on guard duty and is protecting you from inter dimensional hobgoblins

Just stayed at my friend's place last week and they've got a cat. Mind blown: you can't actually "put a cat to bed." You go to sleep thinking the house is yours... then at 3 AM this furry little dictator takes over. Zoomies, knocking shit off tables, staring into the void like it owes him money, and yelling at ghosts. The cat doesn't go to sleep - the house becomes his kingdom until sunrise. Who else got absolutely violated by cat night shift?😭😿

@depressionlesss Two for one, you had to take both

A guy wanted to adopt a cat, but he wouldn't leave his brother's side, so he had to take both of them 🥹
