Last night, I read the entirety of C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters. It's a novel told in the form of letters written by a demon to another demon instructing him on ways to manipulate his "patient" to do evil.
This one quote sounded familiar.
@JO3Canada@TareanSmiley@Notwokenow Of course, but if he quit steroids cold turkey and stuck to maintenance lifts, he is likely to plummet to the ballpark of 210-225 lbs within six months. He'd still be jacked by most standards, but he'd just look like a fit gymbro. Few would think much of him, especially clothed.
@Aris_Utensil@Howlingmutant0 Obviously steroids are involved, but results like that still require extreme devotion to the pursuit. I wouldn't recommend anyone go down that path, but I can respect the dedication required to achieve it.
@HotForMoot@snorewich "What it takes to be a hot woman" Just refrain from stuffing your cake hole 18 hours a day. The only requirement is to NOT turn into a blimp.
The extra "hot girl" stuff is done entirely for the woman's benefit, and the guy really couldn't care less.
Brown people say stuff like this because they donโt realize how trivially easy these things are for Whites.
Kind of like how they think stuff like staying out of jail and maintaining car insurance is an exhausting feat.
@ArdanXXII@WorldByWolf As a representative of Restore, he can't. Until we win, we must play by the current rule set. No matter how inane those rules are. Everyone knows the African would never be nominated, and there is nothing to be gained by intentionally invoking the state's wrath.
At it's root, you believe that taking advantage of someone's kindness is shameful, and they believe it's a point of pride.
Completely incompatible people.
@emhill2100@romanhelmetguy She hasn't done anything novel in the realm of translation either though. These works have been translated numerous times. Her only contribution is her stated goal of historic/literary revisionism.
@RampantDaydream@SCHIZO_FREQ Yep, everyone knows the "office flirt". She doesn't intend to take it anywhere with anyone. She just likes the attention. The guys with half a brain have watched her flit from desk to desk on repeat, and they know to just ignore her.
@EckertAnthony@NoAccountsPlz@NullenM@TrueSlazac We are NOT all the same. You are the product of your parents. If Gottfried and Hilda in Denmark birthed you, you would be an entirely different person.
Being born in Sudan "by chance" requires translocation via some sort of magic. Zero point in debating a magical outcome.
@kenzietuff Liberalism simply *is* methodological individualism.
The flower on the vine that takes pride in how beautiful it is but holds the vine and the roots and even the vintier who planted and tended the vinyard in contempt.
@WomanDefiner@ColterOwen Same, graduated in 2012. We still had the old shop rooms with dusty metal/woodworking equipment in them, but the classes had been officially shuttered for safety reasons. They were replaced with a generic "tech" class where you effectively did science-y arts and crafts.
@BritisherPaz49@Sargon_of_Akkad@ColintonT63036 This move from Farage is little better than the politics of resentment and envy from the Greens. This sort of move sullies Reform more than it punishes the Green voters.
@PSheisty365573@jessibridges@toooldforfears Sure, they're just a gas station attendant to start, but the obvious implication is that they would inherit/take over the business with time. Pretty standard family-run business things. It may not be glamorous, but it was a recipe for a prosperous family for millennia.
