@Jason______A I put two bags in the overhead yesterday, if it’s a problem the stewardess will sort it

Beta male … if someone’s extra bag is in my overhead bin I will put it on the floor in the aisle and put my bag in the bin. Zero way my bag is not going over my head when I paid for that first class seat. Here let me show you how it’s done when you’re not a pussy. Step one identify the spare bag Step two throw it on the floor Step three put your bag in its place Step four sit back in your seat like nothing just happened “Who’s bag is this” says the stewardess “Not mine” says the alpha male Problem Solved

@seekingaround17 A real crew would have squeezed the manager anyway

I love this scene because the manger basically apologizes for not having the power to authorize their extortion of him

@ScythianBro You sound like an Indian

It always bothered me that normies treat "ASIAN" as one single racial category. There are at least six different types of asians, broadly speaking, and they are all different races. In fact it would make sense to differentiate it into more than six categories but six is a good start. I would say Tibetans and related peoples could be their own separate category of Asians (Mountain Asians?) Another thing that always bothered me is that in the english speaking world we call the place that jews,arabs,syrians,etc. are from "The Middle-East" or "The Near-East" which is ridiculous, we should call that region "WEST ASIA" which hammers in the fact that this region is well and truly ASIAN, specifically the part of Asia that is nearest to THE WEST so it is WESTERN ASIA. It's ridiculous that we use this term "The Middle East" and then without skipping a beat we will refer to tajikistan,etc. as "Central Asia" - it's like, well asia is The East, so wouldn't "The Middle East" refer to Central asia since central is middle??? ffs

@newstart_2024 People used to read magazines and newspapers all the tim, I was there

A photographer once walked around New York taking pictures of strangers on their phones… then edited the phones out. The result? Rows of people on the subway, in cafes, everywhere — all staring blankly down at their empty hands. Chris Williamson showed it to Joe Rogan, and the absurdity hits instantly. It looks completely unhinged. That photo series started around 2012–2015, right as smartphones and social media exploded. What began as a fun new tool quietly turned into something we can’t put down. As Rogan noted, it went from “why would I be on Twitter?” to influencers building entire careers around it, and the rest of us getting pulled along. We traded presence for endless distraction — and many of us didn’t even notice the swap. Those empty-hand photos reveal how normalized something strange has become. We’re not just using technology; it’s reshaping how we exist in public spaces and with ourselves. Personally, seeing that edit always makes me pause. It’s a small reminder to look up more often — the world is still happening around us. When’s the last time you caught yourself (or someone else) staring at your hand like that in public?

@mossfan20 @GreenTextRepost Need to add something about trains

@GreenTextRepost These would make great lyrics for a country-western song

@PadStylish42327 @DEI4WhiteGuys All South Asians are Indians

@DEI4WhiteGuys He is not Indian; he is Nepali, hence the phrase Asian.

Every racist/sexist knew this story was bullshit from the start 1. Women don’t refer to their breasts as “cannons” 2. White Americans don’t refer to Indians as “Asian” 3. Racists have never heard of the slur “fish head” for Indian women, and as proof, we’ve spent the last day incorrectly applying it to Japanese and Chinese women 4. Racists don’t say “brown boy” Only a “conservative” would ignore or not see all these obvious signs of an Indian scammer

@shagbark_hick Hot humid and creol, not my jam

@DaThermidorian I lived in Louisiana twice and loved it except for the heat

I'm a full-blown outsider to the world of the South, but it does seem to me that whatever the South's best qualities are -- Louisiana does them the best. I can't think of what one would find in another Southern state that could really be better than Louisiana. You know, you go to Georgia and it feels 'stuffier'. You ride around Alabama and people are pretty leery. The Carolinas just feel like Southern New Jersey but hotter; a lot of Mississippi is just sad. But Louisiana? Best state in the South by far, as far as I could ever tell. Realest people. Fewest plasticky subdivisions. Best food. Cajun culture. Friendliest folks (in my own experience). I'm very glad I do not live there but when I go there, I am happy to visit and am sad to leave it. Thus far I have not been able to say the same of any other Southern state (unless you count Texas). No disrespect to the rest of the Southern states. I've just got to say though that from where I stand, Louisiana is the "GOAT" of the South.

@k1rallik This is like a smoke test for Indian anon accounts

@paleonormie Not even an afire but it was completely fabricated

Fish head is not a slur a white person would think of. Calling it now this was a regular affair that that guy is pretending to be an abusive relationship in a desperate Hail Mary to save his marriage

@advancedjd @exec_sum If this man’s wife is South Asian I think he made it up. An American would not call a South Asian Asian, we call them Indians.

@exec_sum The more I read the more I just think this is some crazy Indians fan fic of his boss

"I bet your little Asian, fish head, wife doesn't have these cannons" JPMorgan LevFin executive director Lorna Hajdini, quoted in an anonymous lawsuit by a junior male colleague accusing her of making him her sex slave Viagra, roofies, and balls not "tasting like curry" are some other astonishing highlights of the lawsuit that accuses Hajdini of rape, stalking, and abuse

@jawwwn_ @PalmerLuckey @bbgoriginals @emilychangtv Where didn’t they find someone shorter than lucky, Lilliput?

Anduril Founder @PalmerLuckey explains how to poach talented people from Big Tech companies: "Tell them that their career is meaningless, and that they are wasting their lives on something that doesn't matter." “You can shock them out of the Matrix.” Via @bbgoriginals

@sporadica If Mars were divided among the first 1M settlers, each person would get roughly 144.8 km² (35,781 acres). That’s a personal estate the size of Staten Island for every single settler.

trying to genuinely understand this bc this feels...impossible in his lifetime? $7.5T is crazy, but okay, doable. but 1 MILLION people on Mars?? Yea I believe we will get there eventually, but Elon is 54yrs old Either he thinks he's gonna live to 200 or we'll do this in ~30yrs?

@DangerousThinkg I watched this on silent and know exactly what song this is. I am not even going to check

How many of you go out for early dinners and then call it a night? This hits harder as the days pass

@ShadowofEzra I don’t like the king of England in congress

King Charles is telling the United States government to prepare for a war with Russia by getting ready to defend Ukraine and “her most courageous people.” He reminds Congress that they fought together through two world wars, the Cold War, and Afghanistan. *The entire Congress clapped.

@Geiger_Capital he's standing next to a bee hive

How does he do it.

@cath_cov The read the Declaration of Independence there on the 4th of July just like they did in 1776

Christ Church, Lancaster County, Virginia, built 1732-35. It is described as "the most finely crafted and best preserved parish church from colonial Virginia". Divine service is still offered in the church on Sundays in Summer.

@dr_duchesne Who is reading this shit. What value could one from internalizing this ai prompted slop.

Within the current order there is nothing you can do about the hyper sexualization of White women, the prevalence of hypergamy, below replacement fertility rates, and countless young men never finding wives ---------- because this reality is the predictable outcome of the two logics that dominate the Western world: the logic of liberal feminist emancipation, and the logic of optimization in the age of (post-Fordist) limbic capitalism. These logics prioritize what is economically and ideologically efficient in the current regime; and turning attractive white young women into sexual commodities is both highly optimizing for the limbic economy and a continuation of the emancipation of women. (1) Liberal feminism provides the ideological "empowerment", while (2) limbic capitalism provides the profit-incentivizing infrastructure. Limbic capitalism, as I indicate in my pinned article, refers to businesses that deliberately target the brain's limbic system responsible for pleasure, craving, and quick emotional reactions. (1) The dominant narrative of "my body, my choice" celebrates women monetizing their sexuality as a form of liberation from marriage, motherhood, monogamy. This sexualization further intensifies the logic of feminism: hypergamy has been amplified by dating apps, and has encouraged women to further delay marriage, avoid children, AND treat their youth as their prime asset rather than as a means to attract a husband to create a family. (2) Platforms where women showcase their sexuality are paradigmatic cases of limbic capitalism: they engineer constant dopamine hits through sexual attention, rewards, and "parasocial relationships" (one sided relationships where viewers feel familiarity, closeness, or emotional connection toward online figures). Limbic capitalism fully understands that one of the most efficient ways to extract enormous value is from White female sexuality in a globe were billions of men online desperately crave it.

@barstoolspringb This is some weapons grade goyslop, total garbage.

Katic and Ella talking about Richelle Ryan over some fried rice and chicken fingers

@blosserosserous @TimJDillon Idk if there would be a revolution but i can see them getting very involved in politics in a meaningful way, beyond punditry/podcasts. They are not primarily commentator type people but rather doers.

@DaThermidorian @TimJDillon Someone is quoting that Timcast clip that popped up on my feed yesterday… except he was straight saying they would organize and start a revolution. I’m not sure I agree with the revolution part…
