its half bots right now. most of the other half are schilling shit for somebody. Engagment is down, probably even way down. Who is going to pay to advertise to a botfarm?
reddit seems to have gotten into the habit of "screening" posts and comments before it will let you post by claiming something has went wrong. workarounds include alternate phrasing
I dont really have an issue with my landlord. He is definitely a business man and he know he will have a good tenant that pays his due on time so long as he doesnt expect more money. He knows if he does that, even by a dollar, he is going to have an empty studio apartment thats going to be a tough sell even if it didnt need a very expensive update. He knows he is better off taking my palty offering. He is not dumb
I dont think it will go that way for very long. I can see huge problems when everybody figures out they are sleeping outside so blackrock can buy every fucking house in the galaxy to let them sit empty. And then this miserable piece of shit system that went beyond reform decades ago collapses. Old asshole are swapped out with new assholes. Things begin to improve at least marginally
The estimates are astounding. Some figures for just the past several years are over 10 million people. Things like that can totally mess up a market. Price increases these days unfortunately follow a non linear progression parallel with demand. I mean im sure the outfits like blackrock know exact figures but i doubt it would be in their best interest to divulge them
Ive “sensed” this projected from more and more women over time to the point that it had become untenable to deal with them. It sucks but for now the only way to win is not to play
Yeah Beau stands out because hes relenless. Theres a popular trans youtuber like that but i cant remember (he?, she?, it?, they?, them?) name. One damn video and were fucking BFFs for months.
It dont work. If i click on a single “Beau of the Fifth Column” that ugly motherfucker will pop up in my feed for the next 8 months. They show you what they want you to see
There are a plethora of feminist promoted subs. You wont have to look real hard or real long. My favorite was female dating strategy. They did get banned but there are plenty almost as bad/good (depends on polarity of course)
I like free speech and i wont feel guilt or shame defending it. Maybe the mods policy is thought out, i have never modded content before but i have seen how others have. Im not trying to imply malfeasance but these things must be pointed out.
The movement will succeed there is no doubt. And of course reddit is going to hate it. If thats the case i would put as much of it off on them then. Make reddit the bad guy. Whenever i see people nonchalantly talking about controlling speech or compelled speech of any kind its a huge turn off. I find it very masculine to be able to speak my peace and in turn allow others the same. It doesnt matter who likes it or not. One of the reasons we are here is because at one point in time or another we o…
I didnt say not to call them out. I would choose to worry a lot less about the approval of others or how this space might be perceived. I dont feel the need for approval. If thats what we are all hoping for we have already failed
Honestly, i think we are to eager to just shut down rather than engage or simply ignore. We spin our gears way to much about he said/she said. Way to feminine to me. Its pearl clutching. Im a man and i can handle course language.
My brother didnt do that. A few other guys i know didnt do that. Im not saying its not a thing, im saying men can and do make good single fathers. It shouldnt just default to the mother because reasons
Sure yeah i suppose. I just got through a divorce. I think your over thinking it, all im saying is ive after driving around the block for a few decades im not wasting gas anymore. I hear and see other men struggling with the same shit so i share my experience with them. I want my nephews to be happy and be with someone if thats what they want. I also am going to tell them what ive been through so they know the danger. Im telling them the things i wish my father would have told me.
Thanks for the explanation. Im old haha. We have a “fancy club” here as well, i worked there for years. And it was pretty much as you described there, the take away was it was large gaggles of women but only small handfulls of wealthy men. Attractive women chasing wealthy men has been a thing since the dawn of time but it definitely seems to favor the absolute top tier of men and completely disregard the rest more than i think ive ever seen. Most normal guys aint really giving a fuck to try anym…
Good for you i suppose. I can only tell you what im seeing here. I am assuming you are frequenting the fancier clubs and what not? What does “grafting each other” and “ONS” mean?
No shit? Part of this conversation isnt really about what im doing. I just got divorced myself. Im trying to point out what others seem to be doing here. Ive heard its happening elsewhere. I find this amusing
Im not. Nobody is. The last bridal shop in the county closed this year. Me and my brother went bar hopping it was the normal collection of every day drunks, a small gaggle of dolled up hot chicks standing around looking at each other and thats it. Like there was nobody even mingling. I worked at a bar here for years and was stunned. Guy i know behind the bar said its been this way since covid. Dudes aint even trolling for skank anymore. Pretty funny to see others following suit after i threw in …
I dont know how else to put it. Its a high stakes gamble with poor chances of success and steep consequences for failure. And its a huge pain in the ass to even get to that point. Why would i want to do that?
Of course, at least as much as they could. I think there is only about six years difference from youngest to oldest. They was just poor country folk stuck in the middle of nowhere. If we are being honest does anybody really do it solo?
Usually they are still a couple at that point. Its when it comes time to give things up and raise their kid that starts the trouble. Momma usually want to go clubbing with her friends and the father is like WTF? Are you in a large city on the coast? Im in the midwest.
I wasnt trying to upset you. In my area alot of the single moms are aweful people. Not all of them and probably not even most, but enough for it to have been an issue for at least one person you know. All of my male friends, every single one that has dealt with this have fought to get their kids. For a couple of them it took years and thousands of dollars. They have full custody now and both couldnt be happier. Honestly i dont care if its the man or woman taking the kid but give them to the pare…
I think some are, probably more than you think. I dont know about most. Once again it is perfectly natural for a woman or man to want kids. I have even been told this by more than several women. Why is this bad?
I suspect you are. I detect revulsion, disgust, and disbelief that a man would want to raise his own kids. This seems and is completely natural to be. Why then do you express it the way you do if there was nothing personal at stake?
If a female knows the man is not obligated to her for anything ever she may exercise more discretion when choosing a man to have sex with. In turn this could lead to more couples remaining together to raise their children.
Hard to say. In the past going and getting laid has helped me feel better after getting dumped. I have wondered what would happen if a chick slept with a guy she friend zoned or even a simp. Ive boned a couple chicks that friend zoned me and it was not bad for a while. Like i think its an overlooked option for both men and women
Prostitution definitely needs to be legalized. And prostitutes are to be treated with the same respect as any working man. Blue collar working men and prostitutes have alot in common
Ive been in the game for a while and its been a downhill slide the whole time. The only solution i got is to just stop trying. Like i dont even bother trying to talk to women. There is literally no reason to bother with them right now.
I would assume nothing. Why does this bother you? I guarantee hes not the first guy to hop an ocean to get laid and he wont be the last. Is he supposed to be poor bbecause he is from Brazil? And so what if he is? Homies gotta live his best life.
Its his damn money. And whose to say it will be wasteful? I cant say it wont work and you cant either. On the other hand im sure there is plenty of cool stuff in Sweden to see and do other than fuck.
Maybe maybe not. Doesnt sound like the ones in Brazil are but who knows? Bar down the street or country across the ocean whats the difference? If playboy billionaire wanted to hop in his jet to go see if swedish women want to talk to him he gets high fives but homeboy cant for reasons?
Dude whats the harm? If a mildly autistic guy wants to go to Sweden to see if women talk to him I dont see the harm. Ive heard good things about Sweden.
Ok. Remember these guys get hated on alot and can be pretty defensive. And as always with everything there will be a contingent that are just bitter assholes, it will happen to the best of us from time to time. All most of us reasonably want out of participating in this palaver is to vent and be acknowledged.
Homie I think you may run in very different social circle than the rest of us. We are the sweatshop workers, the burger flippers, the garbage men, the mail men, the construction workers, and the truck drivers. You my friend are an aspiring lawyer. Im not implying that you have not earned your spot, but through the eyes of alot of the women we are going to encounter you are going to be far above us just with a title and will be treated very differently. Im also not trying to imply that you are no…
The men dont care. They have access to almost any woman they want. The ladies on the other hand just dont seem to acknowledge it. I noticed this years ago when i worked at a fancy restaurant/club.
Most of us are aware of this. What he seems to be aware of more than most is women both young and olds preference for pretense above all else. Both parties can want the exact same thing but as a man you have to be able to frame it right. Unfortunately
Yeah i mean there is that as well. I take people on an individual basis but id be lying if i said i wouldnt take these things into consideration. Im getting to damn old to find out the hardway. Again
No, more like a collective. 20 to 30 percent autonomous the other 70 to 80 percent pure borg. And of course there are always going to be the occasional outlier.
Yes. This is my situation. Im pretty sure I could go and get laid from experience. I also know from experience its going to take an unpreditermined amount of time and money. And it only gets worse if I wind up in a relationship.
It is a sad reality. Its better for me to call a spade a spade and just get over it. My will to survive and be happy exceeds my desire to be angry and henceforth counterproductive.
Not really any right or wrong way to go about it. Currently I prefer to opt out at this time and for the foreseeable future. The juice just isnt worth the squeeze and I lack the patience.
Seemingly all over the place. They have pretty much been given free run of the internet and popular culture but that doesn't mean they are an accurate representation of society as a whole.
