@tanelho @TWTKaganovich @skytopjf@_glorianas FYI, "Страна непуганых идиотов" was how the early Soviet satirists Ilf and Petrov characterized the US of almost 100 years ago after traveling through it in 1930's.
I use their characterization to describe modern MAGA America.
@jinxxxedz@Teawisher@wil_da_beast630 Depends on one's POV. In my POV, wanting one's partner to be able to pay rent and grocery billis and have a reliable car is not gold digging, just wanting a normie life. But wanting to have a partner who provides MacMansion and vacations at 5-star resorts is.
@wil_da_beast630 My ex-wife used to touch and stroke my c*ck at night while I was asleep, get it hard and then ride it to her orgasm (usually I would be half awake at that point), does it mean she was raping me? I don't think so.
@moseskagan@nickkokonas Every nation gets the government it deserves. Russia deserves Putin, we deserve Trump, Israel deserves Bibi, Gaza deserves Hamas. Sad but true.
@bavedikian Probably the same people who were predicting the imminent collapse and bankruptcy of Tesla before that, back in 2018 - 2019.
Betting against Elmo doesn't work.
@StatisticUrban@thebeltwayagent Upper Michigan, Minnesota and Northern Wisconsin. Adirondacks in Upstate New York. Vermont and Maine. Some areas of Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Most of those above could be very buggy in June though.
@RealDianeYap@Good_Rel_2226 Correct. But if in the long term only one party is enthusiastic about it - it is a problem. That party's needs aren't being met, so it is likely to look to satisfy those needs elsewhere or to leave this relationship altogether.
@vxylily Poor hygiene. Rudeness. Endless blabbering. Whiny voice. Bad teeth. Overweight/obese. Frequent anger outbursts. Negativity/chip on the shoulder. Lack of engagement. No eye contact. Some other things.
@estherzelda0514@RealDianeYap That is why a first date should be brief, about 45 minutes. If it is going badly, you can leave quickly without being rude.
@Getinwithgame Sometimes those guys ( if they are egotistical assholes) are quite good at picking up trashy low self esteem women, which further confirms his view of women. He is not even aware that high quality women exist because those avoid him like a plague.
@Shea_84@wil_da_beast630 I really like the idea of "rebuilding the ecosystem of sexual desire". Actually it is likely to be a capital renovation, because such an ecosystem in a long term live-in relationship is very different from an ecosystem of sexual desire in a dating relationship.
