@Himalayan59@M__Fromage I know this feel completely. Being a home owner requires you to be the kind of person women hate. Sorry I'm going to bed at 9pm I have yard work and shit to fix tomorrow.
@ThomBrady5@_7homas777 Isn't that a big part of the book? That even though he can see the future he cannot escape the Jihad (short of killing himself). All he can do is try his best to minimize the damage. All futures led to it, or worse. The events in motion can't be changed by any one person.
@wakararau The problem is you can't meet women inorganically. You meet them through social circles you've established over time without thinking about it. If your social circle doesn't have women you're fucked. They try to reverse engineer something that can't be done through active will.
@SlumRNA_Dog A friend I hadn't seen in a while at a party was trying to convince me to come hang out with him and his other friends. To demonstrate how cool they were he showed me a video of what looked like a gang bang with them doing coke. I looked away quickly and said no thanks. Wretched
@uncledoomer Can AI also give me the tens of thousands of dollars it will take to fix my foundation? Even if I do it myself. I'm glad it helped you change a window or something though.
@paleonormie I drive a 2007 Corolla and I will drive that thing into the fucking ground before I replace it. And since it's a 2007 Corolla I suspect that won't be for quite some time.
@tradcatboy Eh I get it. It's a fine line between a preference and enjoyment of a style and vanity. For some it's easier to err on the side of caution. Most vain people will have an argument for why they "aren't actually".
@revenant_MMXX I'm in the top 10% of earners in Canada. 34 and I own a home which is a pipe dream for most. I live extremely frugally and even then I struggle to do more than maintain what I have and maybe save a little. Then something breaks and wipes out the savings and I start again.
@SlumRNA_Dog I now am the dedicated apprentice trainer where I am and receive constant feedback that the apprentices really value my mentorship. Many of whom have thanked me personally and gone on to get leadership roles. Because I know what it's like to get the "standard" bullying treatment.
@SlumRNA_Dog I've spent over a decade in the trades. When I started out I had mentors who straight up abused me. I learned nothing and felt bad. Then I met ones who, although would be harsh they would also be fair and share their own mistakes and give encouragement. Night and day difference.
@bizlet7 Youth sports isn't about getting them to go pro. It's about networking and socialization. It's the same reason why "nice neighborhoods" are so expensive.
@QuetzalPhoenix "Jesus replied, โMoses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning" implying we don't have an actual example of this exact thing.
@han_soape@TheNicholasWolf It's not really a 40k meme but someone posting this with the caption "Surviving Iron Hands hearing the news of Istvan V" and it cracks me up every time I think of it. https://t.co/PFqYKNAzRL
