Insomnia in my ass

Gratitude makes you live longer, feel better, and it’s free.

Maybe you didn’t experience the bullying that was happening, or you weren’t on the outer of the cliques that existed?

Call a spade a spade, society doesn’t give a rats arse about vulnerable men of any age or in any demographic.

So denver is fwb?

Yes! The etymology for both words is the French word gargouille, meaning throat. Gargouiller in frrench means gargle as we know it in English, and a gargoyle has a spout where rain water exits it’s mouth when it’s raining (via its throat)

From memory if it doesn’t spout water it’s called a grotesque.

No shit, they see how Gen X and millennials were lied to about working hard and moving up

The world is a vampire sent to drain

Secret destroyers hold you up to the flames

And what do I get? For my pain?

Betrayed desires - and a piece of the game.

Even though I know, I suppose I’ll show

All my cool and cold, like old Job…

Despire all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage

Despire all my rage I am STILL just a rat in a cage

(AKA To gen z and millenials - yeah man we fucking get it.)

Auckland, NZ?

No, maybe in some cases, no.

What’s the rest of his works like? I’ve read snow crash and loved it, will give seveneves a go.

I used to head to the local pool before work to do a few laps. There was a dude in his fifties who would do about 150 laps (4km /2.5mi) drinking regularly from a masterfoods tomato sauce bottle

(it was filled with water)

On a shelf though? Doesn’t dust adhere to rubbery or siliconey stuff? I would have though in a drawer would be more hygienic.

She went on the BBC (no pun intended) to talk about her problems finding employment.

So it’s possible but my spidey sense is she’s doing it for a laugh.

However normal reminder, don’t put anything in backgrounds that you don’t want screen capped and sent first to your colleagues and subsequently to the world. Aka passwords, pin numbers, phone numbers, notes, org charts, technical artefacts or business sensitive information (including whiteboards)

I have a solution for the gun violence problem in schools. Print simple steps on common causes and solutions to the underlying social and mental contributors. Put these up in every door, hallway and classroom in every schools. Then these poor misguided kids would have troubleshooting.

The rise of feminism has seen the steady devaluation of the contribution of men in those areas of society where they should be most active. Rather than celebrate and recognise what’s right, the focus is on attacking what’s wrong.

The majority of men are lonely, isolated and uncared for. Many feel unvalued, unsafe and vulnerable. There is less community support for men than there has been in the past, less institutional support, and a continued decline in the tolerance of men being in shared places. The minimisation of value in societal roles is yet another way that men are cut off.

This seems to escape the vision of feminism. There is always claim of ideological alignment, where the empowerment of women directly benefits men, but when it comes to any form of concrete action that helps men that need help, or celebrates men that contribute - it’s nowhere to be seen.

Men kill themselves. They kill themselves. In their thousands. Leaving cratered families, trauma, guilt from the survivors, many of whom are female. Because they feel valueless, helpless and can’t see a purpose to going on.

Accountability goes both ways. In demanding support from men, feminism must support men.

The behaviours that the youth detest in elders were acceptable in the elders youth. All that changed was time. It’ll happen to you, too, and you won’t give a fuck what the kids are saying.

It’s over the top exaggeration to highlight plot points.

I didn’t find the purported themes really resonated with me tbh.

The sets and costumes were amazing and there were some funny bits tho.
