I think the problem is just too many people. Social structures don’t scale very well because you lose the individual connections at some point and then you stop caring about how your behavior impacts others, and there isn’t direct accountability for your actions.
Humanity is not as refined as people pretend they are. At the end of the day, a large majority of what we do is directly or indirectly about getting laid.
Men workout to make themselves more attractive. They take jobs that pay well to make themselves more attractive, they go to schools to get better jobs to make themselves more attractive.
Women spend time on fitness, makeup, fashion, and education to try to find a better partner.
It’s not all about sex, but a lot of it is. It’s biologically wired into us so we reproduce.
No it isn’t. Breast enhancement is the single most common cosmetic surgery performed in the US.
Where the fuck did you get 197 million?
There aren’t even that many women in the US, let alone those of the right age groups.
Its still a fraction of a percentage, but thats only in a single year of surgeries, and your 2024 number is lower than the number per year I linked in the study.
The total percentage of adult women who’ve had breast enhancement is more than 2% and rising.
If you think most breast enhancement surgeries are paid for by the women, you are not living in reality.
If you think they aren’t common, how do you explain the 300,000 that occur each year in the US? It’s the single most common plastic surgery performed in north America, and 1-2% of the female adult population has had it done and that percentage is going up over time.

This isn’t incel anything, it’s just facts.
I mean, when women have small breasts they usually just buy larger breasts, it’s a lot easier for them to change that aspect than men.
How do they compensate if they can’t afford it themselves and really want it done? They usually get a man to pay for it.
Yes women plan around their periods. They don’t “Need” a special calendar, but it’s pretty easy to lose track of when it’s going to happen, and then you forget and plan something important on day 1 of when it’s supposed to happen and end up having a bad time, or not account for the fact that it can be early or late (it’s not perfect for most women)

Cheez wiz, as the name implies its a cheese spread that comes in a jar.
I miss Costco having one-way aisles during COVID, it significantly improved the shopping experience.
May as well just cut off your ears at this point because a lot of people are going to be very rude to you anywhere you try to spout this shit outside of the Klan rally the commentor mentioned.
Stop worrying about what’s in other people’s pants, you’ll have a much more relaxed life.
It’s not about that one acquaintance, it’s about the time allocation for friends. If someone isn’t going to be able to handle my kids, I’m not going to be able to spend enough time with them to make spending time with them valuable to both of us.
I don’t get someone to cover my kids every week, it’s going to only happen maybe once a month, so I’m going to use that valuable time to invest in the people I’m maintaining closer friendships with.
Having 20 friends you see rarely doesn’t make you happier than having 4 friends you see regularly. If you’re single, you can have 20 friends that you see regularly, but that’s almost impossible as a parent with multiple kids.
Get some resistance bands, they’re fairly cheap and you can do about a thousand different exercises with them.
Because friendships as parents are essentially just that, you have limited time to out into friends so you have to be selective.
Still the prevailing mindset in some less developed countries
They didn’t even name them until they were older because they lost so many early.
I don’t even think they could be legally prosecuted in Canada at that age, let alone placed in a detention facility.
Even if they murdered someone they may just get handed to a mental healthcare situation rather than juvenile detention.
If you don’t want to meet her with the kids, there’s little point in meeting her at all. You aren’t going to be hanging out regularly because she will have kids that need to be tended, so why push.
As a parent, we only hang out with other parents at this point, and generally only those that we have developed a relationship with via kids activities (school, sports, etc) because it’s much easier to maintain that relationship when you see them 2-3 times a week for <insert sport> here, or can schedule a lunch/dinner before or after the mutual <insert kids event> here that you know you will both be attending.
Significant additional fireproofing in homes, and especially in beds.
EKG required for anyone overweight or older than 60 before engaging the services of an escort.
A lot more murders occur and go unsolved due to a lack of evidence.
In addition to the sidewalk issue other have mentioned, I’ve seen these signs in apartment garages for spots where hazards from the ceiling exist. Often the hood of the vehicle fits under the hazard, but the back of a van or a truck with a canopy would hit it.
Depends on what you mean by devices.
My wife and I have two vehicles, this has been important when one failed for a bit.
Theres enough computers and cellphones in my home to restart civilization after a collapse.
I can’t think of any electronic device I couldn’t be without for at least a few days without serious issues.
The most critical thing that could go out is the power, and I have little control over that but at least my local power company is amazing at restoring service around here. We’ve never been out for more than 24 hours in the last decade.
