People think the appeal of kuuderes is emotionless_sex, but that's not it at all, that's just straight kuu. The appeal of kuudere is in the gap, of breaking through the cold hard exterior and seeing a glimpse the warmth and softness beneath!

When I own a house I'm going to have heated floors so my wife never has to wear socks #feet

Elderly German woman at the old age home who immigrated to the US under suspicious circumstances circa 1940s… thank you for showing me kindness and introducing me to Der Ring des Nibelungen

I hate someone who never has a water bottle.. drinking out of my bottle once or twice is fine but why are you drinking multiple times every single day like bro just get one. Everyone inconveniences themselves by having to carry a water bottle everywhere j take some responsibility

@sahil_par Yea lowk

@anshikindacool u make ur account unprivate for this 😭?

folks be from NEW YORK but be OLD (22+)💯😂😂😂😂 #banger

One girl called it Scandinavian scarf and y’all still haven’t shut the hell up about it damn

@sidkol12 So true

@anshikindacool So maybe your feelings make evolutionary sense, but not logical sense. A similar problem arises in the case of nonhuman animals, who are even more genetically apart from humans, and for whom we feel even less empathy.

It’s a very slippery slope to feel prideful over identity markers out of your control (at the risk of granfallooning). I don’t feel any pride in being an Indian American. I didn’t earn being Indian or being first gen, I just happened to be born into it

@sidkol12 Uh

@anshikindacool if only

@sidkol12 /too big for unconditional altruism gene to meaningfully apply

@sidkol12 Nationality and ethnicities are sociopolitical constructs

@sidkol12 Stupid! I don’t know I have anything in common with you just because we share nationalities. class (material conditions?) would be a far stronger predictor of shared experience probably

@anshikindacool Maybe because ethnic groups are like large extended families, people of your ethnicity enjoy some of the unconditional altruism you would (typically) extend to your immediate family.

@sahil_par This is a great distinction and I’m glad you brought this up. The answer is no… not the same as wanting to kms to escape personal suffering or wtv, just that non-being is ontologically preferable to being! phil.washington.edu/sites/phil/fil… Didn’t read all of it, but it’s kind of cool

@anshikindacool isn’t this passive suicidal ideation or wtv

Normal, everyday life is so bleak and banal, the fact that I can meditate + reflect on these matters makes it so much worse, it’s not enough to just want to blow ur shi off smooth, would probably be most ideal to simply not be, much more preferable to birth. I wish I was a rock

Would you kill one million shrimp to save one person

So much of Hinduism is just this pursuit of non-being. The purest and possibly most incomprehensible form of yourself (atman Brahman non-dual whatever the hell), the path towards non-being is the point of life! Start Mokshamaxxing and forget everything trivial + material!

Sometimes I still catch myself feeling more for an Indian American who is struggling than some stranger with no ethnic overlap. Why? Their suffering isn’t weightier… The drowning child is not any more drowned because he’s from Bhopal deadass….

I’m GENUINELY GENUINELY GENUINELY tired of solidarity conversations. Why are Indian Americans more deserving of my help/sympathy than anyone else? At the basis of what? An inconsequential shared ethnicity
