@LegoKingo@ProtoMadd I like it. The Kurta clan’s fate feels like an arbitrary act of violence. Seems appropriate that the Phantom Troupe is undone by a similar amoral force.
@edwiener5 That’s kid stuff. Egocentrism dialed all the way up in periods of extreme stress. ‘Abusive’ is an interesting word choice; Gon is probably one of the only examples of accurate child-like psychology in the medium, but I agree he’s not exempt from being harmful.
@Death_n_Gaming Dive players should play support more. You can see their theory of mind stops at “immortality” instead of “disrupted attention.” Support knows dive is annoying because you can’t deal with dive AND heal your team simultaneously. That’s immense value.
I hate the framing of this. The assumptions about women and "value" and worth. It's cheesy in an old-school, masculine way, like the aspirations of a young boy promised his salvation lies in this fetish shit. It's vapid and silly.
Andrew Tate throws a huge house party in Miami with 50 supermodels... only to lock himself in his bedroom and get back to work.😳🚨
That's why he's successful and you don't.
Weird how many colonial epistemic frameworks are still upheld. It's like once you notice Whiteness™ for the first time, you see that shit everywhere and it's lowkey nauseating
I love essays. Good way to organize my attention and thinking. Don’t have the patience for writing books, nor the follow through to always finish short stories, but essays hit my prostate just right
It seems bad to consume others in general. That's what my gut says. It's easy to rationalize consumption as a natural extension of maleness, but I don't believe that.
Contemplating desire once again. I don't think attraction to women is inherently transgressive, but I also don't think my gaze is always neutral. I suspect many men struggle to reconcile this without reaching a state of sexual self-hatred.
The goal is honor. A furtive glance is cowardly and probably unethical because you're reducing someone down to their body. Check women out, but be witnessed, breathe through it, and allow your attraction to be received or rejected.
How the fuck are you guys just falling in love? Are you cuddling with your female friends? I can not understand the orientation that enables romantic love without a romantic relationship.
A novice pilot in Argentina was forced to land a plane on her own after her instructor suddenly jumped out with no parachute, telling her "you know what to do".
She landed safely, but the instructor didn't survive.
