On the one hand Europe is really beautiful, no I don't think most of it is a tourist trap. But have you seen most of the town and small villages ? Gorgeous but possibly also extremely boring

USA: So much variety, entertainment, so much weird stuff you've never seen before. But it's a fascist hellhole with horrible inequality, healthcare, you name it, and it's just going further down the tubes.

Just wish villages cities in Sweden had more going on ? They do everything else right though

opinions like this are really interesting to me. conservative men barely think of you as human lol. they'll abuse you and get away with it because in conservative communities, whatever a man says goes. if he thinks you aren't doing what he wants he'll treat you like shit. conservatism allows for little female autonomy

And pretty much everything >>311949 was saying was a form of manipulation to scare normies into voting for Christofascists, jiat the same old psychological manipulating politicians use. Conservatives want chaos and they want everything to blow apart so women/ vulnerable people have to depend on the parasite males for resources. But they only want to strip all your rights away in the end and grind the free societies back down into hellholes where they can control and financially abuse everyone.

I've been using the subway in Boston my entire life and haven't had anything happen to me or anyone I know.

I do agree that the west imports way too many people from vastly different cultures, but the people are not inherently inferior. Bring people in at smaller numbers and they will mix better with the culture like in the old days.

Wanting to discover new resources for learning Anonymous 311814[Reply]

What is your daily source of information? How do you stay updated with the news? How do you continue evolving by learning new information, exploring niche topics, and discovering new areas of interest? Please also list your resources below, and do not say that you don’t need to keep yourself updated, because I would like you to. I would also like to learn new things, but right now I mostly end up doomscrolling. The subjects and topics I used to be interested in feel saturated, and since I’ve already explored many of them, I don’t feel motivated to revisit them. I want to find resources, websites, forums which has which help me skim through different topics, keeps me updated with stuff maybe so that I can get into something I never knew about but ended up finding interesting.

I don't use social media so I get my news by listening to the radio, which is not very good for learning but perfect for local news.
If you are a casual investigator I would recommend you check out retraction watch dot com, it's a website that tracks retracted scientific papers. I check it every week and always learn a thing or two, I often times have a laugh as well.
Educational blogs are something I keep up with as well (Like wheresyouredat and smarterthanthat) but if you want reliable information in whatever topic the best option is to read the books. Blogs are just for casual curiosity imo.

Quickly Growing Disillusioned With Discord Roleplay Anonymous 311975[Reply]

It’s like nobody knows what roleplay is. I go to do DM roleplay and everyone just expects ERP straight out of the gate. Zero creativity. The worst grammar you’ve seen in your ding dang LIFE. Expect crazyyy infodumping or unprompted nudes.

Only reason I’m doing DM rps at all is because most servers are so stringent. Even like, 95% of the 18+ servers don’t allow erp. I don’t want to make myself look like a bad person here, but if you’re running an 18+ server and don’t allow ERP, then what are you even doing?? Sex is obviously the final vanguard that the 18+ is supposed to be the border against. What else are we guarding the youth against before they turn 18? Violence? Drugs? Body horror? LMAO.

But anyways, the grown ass adults do not know how to roleplay. One liners and poor diction are rampant. They don’t even look up guides to help themselves grow in the rp ecosystem. I was in a dm-rp hub and some person DMed me asking just… basically asked me to be their mentor even though the only thing I had ever posted on the server was, “F18, DMs Open” and I had to teach them everything. EVERYTHING.

What has the RP scene come to? I guess I’ve only been in it for a year or so, but where should I go where it’s just… you know… better?

Anonymous 311977

I don't do roleplay anymore but I used to via Amino and WhatsApp, I believe there's a roleplay community on Tumblr as well.
Personally I kinda grew out of it so maybe that's why you can't find anyone who knows how to write? Everyone who was good at it isn't as interested anymore so now you only find newbies. Another possibility is that now people would rather just ask ChatGPT or c.ai to roleplay with them.

it's just testosterone
even men who never touch drugs and stay fit will have a wider face when theyre old than when young

test is an extremely powerful hormone that even after they finish puberty continues to slowly change their bodies over time, it's why basically no 20 year old male can achieve the kind of physical mass or width they could have at 30

>what age do men hit the wall
Honestly start the clock at 23, it's all downhill from there, 25-early 30s is where it really gets bad. I don't get why women are the ones who get excessive plastic surgery when women naturally age far better than men, I can think of a lot of women who look good after 40 but can't think of a single man, at best men are passable

>>311262
It's DHT (a type of testosterone) that apparently makes it more of a hassle to shave, of course women shave throughout their whole lives through much more difficult patches of hair but men don't have the dedication

How is surrogacy not considered human trafficking? Anonymous 311136[Reply]

Was causally watching a video about the craziest stuff people tried selling online, and one of the things was an actual baby for $3k. That got me thinking… How the fuck is surrogacy not seen as human trafficking? Why is it only seen as human trafficking once the mom gives birth to the child? How is not a form of human trafficking for a woman's body be RENTED OUT in order to make a baby with the intentions of the baby to be stripped from its mother as soon as birth?

Don't bring up adoption as an example either because 1. adoptions are already linked to human trafficking + its a very shitty flawed system, BUT its a system literally meant for kids who cannot be with their parents due to their parents being unfit or dead. The kids in question had no choice for the most part. And even then, CPS is notorious for being shitty because their main objective is to keep families together, even if the family is abusive. With all that being said, adoption is also a mostly goverment-funded endeavor.

So why is surrogacy allowed? Why do people look at it with anything other than disgust? Why shouldn't parents be allowed to sell off their children to someone if its allowed regardless as long as its planned between the mother and a stranger?

You need to actually read the studies to shit on them first. It's based on analyzing twins (who have similar dispositions whether raised apart or together), analyzing adopted kids (that don't share their adoptive parents traits). Look up Texas Adoption Project.
Studies also show that heritability of childhood personality is actually lower, not higher, i.e. the adult shift is towards genetic predisposition. This is exactly where the figure 30% comes from, too.
Your genetics are actually also affected by the environment (nurture) by the way, trauma, epigenetics, etc.

Not that any of this matters that extremely, your Big Five results don't define your entire personality, just how conscientious and neurotic you are. Nor are humans anything like dogs where the personality is bred to have extreme differences between peoples.

Anonymous 311253

Personality (nature, really) is partly intrinsic but no necessarily directly inherited. Plus, since you'll get the chance to observe your parents, perspective lets you cringe and go "ugh, I hope I never act like that", etc

Absolutely no one "deserves" children, and the notion of entitlement to a child is part of why Im against surrogacy. The people who seek it out are inherently mentally unfit. Sure, natural parents can be quite shitty, but its not a 100% shittiness rate out of the gate. Being wealthy and outwardly normal is merely a thin mask covering over an internally deranged understanding of human beings, life, and the parent-child relationship that surrogacy-seekers have

Anonymous 311970

Personality is definitely genetically influenced to a large degree, but this is totally irrelevant to the question. Does wanting a kid with a higher chance of being like you, entitle you to creating children with another woman's body? Does it entitle you to create a child who is going to be deprived of its gestational mother, the only human being on the planet whose heartbeat it will have imprinted on its psyche forever? How can any contract be sufficient to deal with the reality of a child you have some strange half-existing parental rights over existing INSIDE the body of a whole other human being? To what extent can or can't you therefore CONTROL that other human being- to what extent have you purchased a slave for 9 months?

The issue of litigation over miscarriages/still births, whether you can demand a C section or not or any other medical intervention, the issue of sometimes the MOTHER who carried and birthed a child wanting naturally to keep that child…All these things are being dealt with now and there's no perfect answer except to stop fucking around with human life. Human lives should not be created on a commissioned for-profit basis.

sucralose still stims vagus into releasing insulin just like aspartame and sugar. it just doesn't contain calories. if you eat too few calories but still get lots of insulin response, you break down muscle for energy instead of what you ate or fat.. insulin is bad for things unrelated to weight also

insulin prevents you from losing weight because it prevents stored energy (fat cells) from being used to power your body. zero calorie is a literal scam for weight loss on top of tasting bad

Anonymous 309495

nature intended sugar to be used to prevent starvation during the long periods (sometimes weeks) ancient humans went without finding food. we evolved to enjoy it so much because humans needed to want to eat it whenever possible since in nature it doesn't occur that much. not eating any carbs means you'll go keto, which is a survival mechanism meant to increase the chances of finding actual nutrition. you were simply not meant to eat sweet things everyday and the insane amount of insulin that's considered normal for children will have lots of metabolic and cellular consequences starting in midlife if kept up into adulthood
