she has a masters in drama from Yale and “had no idea what the odyssey was”. not just “hadn’t read it” had never heard of it at all apparently. what a damning indictment of Yale.

@janlevinson69 @annakhachiyan Nobody wants to be 65 and grandchildless.
That's when real existential pain kicks in.

@annakhachiyan Everybody wants to be 35 and childless but nobody wants to be 55 and childless

People laugh but this will be a major epidemic in just a decade or two, unlocking new galaxy brain tiers of mental illness and granting final legitimacy to the assisted suicide industry

A lot of women think they’re gonna be ok later in life being alone cuz they’re used to it now but I suspect being alone in your 20s and 30s while still receiving ample male attention will feel much different than being alone in your 40s and 50s. Pride

@causeiexist @niemontal @streetwiseprof Bc it ensured the whole world is within its system (being the reserve currency), hence there is no such thing as outflow from USD.
The moment any idea of a dollar alternative sparks up, threats pile up.
Cf. Trump reaction to BRICS currency proposal: not dismissal, but threats.
English
@niemontal @streetwiseprof the US has no regulations on capital outflow, though this is basically a mandatory part of being the legitamate reserve currency
English
Riddle me this: If China is the ascendent economic colossus it and western sinophiles claim it to be, why is it panicking about capital outflows?
Bloomberg@business
Chinese investors are rushing to find alternative ways to buy and sell overseas equities after Beijing launched its most forceful crackdown on illicit cross-border stock trading to stem capital outflows. Read more: bloom.bg/4fLeS2C 📷️: Qilai Shen/Bloomberg

@churrascooooo There are already a few of the older millennial women (40+) where you see this.
It ain't pretty, not the kind of thing you wanna be anywhere near. It involves a lot of aggression and mental illness.
I suspect loads of them will end up homeless 20y from now once they reach 60+.

we're still in the early days of The Short House, lets see how it goes

@pierre_crypt0 @Fiskantes Depending on the sport, the difference between natural vs enhanced is not that far from male vs female.
E.g. weightlifting
English
@Fiskantes This but also… why everyone forget the talent impact too. World records are made by out of this world talented people. Even good guys enhanced can’t compete (let alone if talented guy is enhanced too).
English
So Enhanced games ended up being kinda meh?
Only one world record broken...
That likely means that all the other games are sufficiently enhanced already, and the marginal improvements from making it explicitly allowed aren't impactful
English
It's actually 1% of the population that committed 63% of violent crimes, at least in Sweden.
Swan@AndySwan
You're much more of a slave to the 1% that commit 50% of crimes than you are to the 1% that create 40% of the wealth.
English
@cremieuxrecueil They're adding banned swimsuits in the mix.
Most certainly wouldn't have broken the record without it.
English
Holy shit the record actually was 20.88 and this guy got 20.81.
The Enhanced Games actually did it!

A $1,000,000 WORLD RECORD SWIM! Kristian Gkolomeev wins the Men’s 50m Freestyle in 20.81s and takes home $1,000,000 bonus + $250,000 first place prize and reclaims his 50M Freestyle world record.

@MKUVideos @WomenPostingLs It was very ambiguous tho.
The way he phrased, you can just take the swing normally and close eyes a millisecond before club hits the ball.
And it's all very ambiguous.
Is it close eyes after placing feet.
After starting swing?
Middle of swing?

How are women unable to understand the simplest things?? 💀

@bonedrycuffs19 @NipseyHoussle @OrevaZSN They're comparing productivity between WFH and after Return To Office (RTO)
The thing is that the entirety of the workforce hit a productivity downgrade after WFH.
And they're not going back to past productivity anytime soon even if RTO.
Perhaps never going back.
English
@NipseyHoussle @OrevaZSN How is it bad for companies. They save millions annually in commercial leases, insurance, supplies etc. even if the productivity is slightly worse (which has been debunked) then it's still worth it for businesses.
English
Anyone saying WFH is bad hasn't truly experienced it. I wake up just 10 minutes before work with no hour-long commute. I finish my workday without facing another hour of return traffic. I cook my own meals and get to spend time with my family. Where is the downside in that?
English
@VittelMax @bronzeagemantis Note for reader:
When women say: "I cannot take a guy serious"
She means:
I will only fuck him, deep throat his dick, let him fuck me in the ass, but I would never "take him seriously", like, expect him to pay for my bills or demand him to take any responsibility.
English
“I just cannot take a guy serious as a man if he does not demonstrate the ability to have income” —yellow woman
“[the yellow race only has] one thought from which nothing can distract them, to procure food, cloth and shelter” —A. De Gobineau
sanje horah@sanjehorah
serious question: what's the psychology behind women liking men who are broke, sometimes even liking the man more when he is broke? genuinely do not understand. i just cannot take a guy serious as a man if he does not demonstrate the ability to have income

@nsquaredvalue @LawrenceLepard If they do start diverging for the first time in decades (ever?), the end result is loss of credibility, which ends in skyrocketing rates which ends in QE anyway.
English
@LawrenceLepard I think Powell stayed on so he can simply vote against whatever Warsh wants. If Powell actually has influence still, there would be a "deep state" at the Fed that could make it difficult for Warsh.

@Langcraft2 @Joachim_Wien Do you have?
Have you done what you said? To your family/sister/mom/gf?
Help her out, "save her" from the man she willingly spread her legs to?
English
@edgexbt @Joachim_Wien Wdym? I’m weighing what you are saying, I want to know if you stand by your words IRL. If you haven’t had kids it’s fine, just affirms that this is an abstract convo.
English
So I just learned that shotgun weddings, designed to nip promiscuity in the bud and protect the honour and authority rights of heads of families, and enforced by ecclesiastical and secular authorities, were in fact a Feminist contrivance. The Internet is so informative!
Jack Vien@Joachim_Wien
@CovfefeAnon @JTiegs7347 @fishwink @BlackDumpling Strange feminism, invented by ancient patriarchs in order to see to it that patriarchal ownership rights trumped the choices and preferences of thots, and that the nascent thot would continue to have a body count of one, or hazard capital punishment next time!
English
@edgexbt @Langcraft2 I have no idea what any of this is supposed to be about, and I don't think you do either. You're some dumbass student with a head full of half-digested ideas you haven't thought all the way through, a pissant trying to sound tough by talking trash about murdering your own kids.
English
@Joachim_Wien @Langcraft2 You're purposefully mixing things up.
First was referring to patriarch times.
Now you disingenuously mixed it up with modern Europe.
covfefe was right. There's no point, you're a 1st wave feminist moid and completely unwilling to reconsider that ideology.
Many such cases.
English
@edgexbt @Langcraft2 Amongst the Europeans if you kill your daughter you'd be on the hook for murder one and headed for the scaffold. In any case, by doing so he'd be publicly admitting that daughter was a ho. The shotgun wedding expiates the disgrace so dear old Dad doesn't *have* to kill anybody.
English
@edgexbt @Joachim_Wien Have you done this with your daughters?
English
@Langcraft2 @Joachim_Wien > The promiscuity is caused by something that is done in response to promiscuity?
Exactly, you got it now:
It's an unintended consequence by weak fathers' attitude.
Think of it as an extension of "Spare the rod spoil the child".
English
@edgexbt @Joachim_Wien The promiscuity is caused by something that is done in response to promiscuity?
I’ve dated a couple girls with conservative fathers and they were pretty permissive, so idk if this even happens.
It’s not the pill, removal of coverture, no-fault divorce?
