@YuriFrozen People have such weird biases around risk, like the north cascades could reach its carrying capacity for grizzly bears and the most dangerous part of your hike would still be the drive to the trailhead

@YuriFrozen Got into an heated argument with a dude about wolf attacks one time. He just flatly refused to believe me that it wasn't a real problem

One of my many hot takes regarding conservation is that occasional fatal animal attacks are basically a non-issue and people should get over it.

@agraybee The abject failure of liberalism to provide economic stability much less upward mobility was always going to produce a generation nostalgic for a mostly imagined prosperous past with all the regressive social views that entails

Everything Price Sufferer (but especially eggs)
Zoomer men are possibly the most misogynistic cohort I've ever seen. No generation of men gets a pass on this, but zoomers have whole elaborate theories of how women aren't people. They calmly discuss how women have no inner life. It's extremely chilling.

@fyridk Yeah cause infinity isnt a real thing and so when you try to use it practically you get obviously nonsensical results. people are like what if the 3s went on forever what then? and well they won't ever do that so it cant possibly matter

I was talking to my dad last night, who used to be pretty conservative but is honestly just a run of the mill NPR liberal at this point, and he was like remember when those guys tried to assassinate Trump? If they'd done it none of this would have happened right?

Like obviously I don't want to live to see the US engaged in a large scale conventional war. But the political and social implications of how much the US military is a paper tiger will someday be Very Interesting

If he fights Oliveira and beats him (likely imo) he'll have taken out three of the most widely beloved and respected fighters in the sport in succession and the longer his run the more satisfying it's going to be when he loses

After the success and all the money Adesanya and Pereira have made the UFC they offered Vakhitov a standard contender series contract 😂😂😂 It's clear the UFC is more concerned with long term oppression of their working force than offering an actual good product.

Artem Vakhitov, the last man to defeat Alex Pereira in kickboxing, explains why he declined a #UFC contract after earning one on Dana White's Contender Series. 👀💲 He'll, instead, face Rico Rico Verhoeven for the #GLORY heavyweight title. (Via @damonmartin)

@lthomasnews I have to think that the shit pay is part of it, these women know that their only chance to make real money is to get title fights and so once they get into the top 5 they just get really cautious, more scared of messing up than they are motivated to win decisively

@lthomasnews Part of me wants to write it off as misogyny and that's obviously part of it for plenty of these guys but there's just been so many "high level" w's fights in the last couple years that haven't paid off... just plain boring matches where neither woman is willing to take a chance

@EllieGabalus yeah for better or worse there's a direct correlation between the ruthlessness of a revolutionary project and how long it lasts

this is the exact reason why authors like robin hobb, r.f. kaung, n.k. jemisin, v.e. schwab etc. have author names that seem ambiguous because men just do not want to read from women, period.
John A. Douglas@J0hnADouglas

Happened to be in Target again and decided to check in on the “Fantasy” section. Unlike last year, any male-centric fantasy is nowhere in sight. It’s all Chick Lit and Booktok slop. Modern publishing hates male readers

@LittleMammith That may be the case but isn't most of that article about how it's women who are disproportionately perpetually single because they are unable to find a partner who satisfies their requirements?
