Oddly enough I only met 5 women off tinder (socially) and dated two of them, one of them ended up marrying me. We’ll celebrate 6 years next month 🌈

I mean…maybe…but I feel like this is on a long enough time scale that a) we can opt out of it or b) the actuarial tables will get us before generations of genetic manipulation really show up

You’d think that after controlling the presidency, the House, the Senate along with the majority of governorships and state legislatures that and the rubber stamp of the Supreme Court that they wouldn’t see themselves as the ones suffering but alas, here we are

There’s also a chance that 6% of women prioritize having children because of the men + the “policies”/worldview Gen Z men keep electing As a childless 40 year old guy - that’s my reason

I usually work from home but there are stores I support in my area (not direct leadership) but now I show up just to interact with humans rather than sit home and doomscroll all day It matters

Met my wife on Tinder - somebody gave me a good thought… The longer the bio, the longer the relationship - to each is own but that helps to figure out if you’re both on the same page lol

It’s almost like we had to wait until all the WWII veterans were in their 90s or passed away to completely undo everything they sacrificed for

When people overcome the threats of retribution they get for speaking the fact-based and evidence-based reality we live in

While I am not a defender of him I am a defender of truth and that quote did not happen That said, the fact that it is so widely spread because millions believe it without skipping a beat speaks volumes

Not saying one or the other is more important but race, religions and ethnicity have been discussed for generations while gender, gender identity and sexual orientation have only really entered mainstream discussion in our lifetimes My two cents. Could be wrong

Agreed So what’s the plan?

Begs the question - which figures dominate presence and discussion on social media - or is that not something we’re allowed to talk about anymore

The facts were exaggerated, warped or completely omitted to reflect the emotional feelings of “this is ours for us and we don’t want anybody to change that for us” It was a dark omen of the decade we’re in now

To clarify - the people who were angry felt video games were a boys club Im in the camp of if you like video games, play them, I don’t care. But many, many, many did. And probably still do

brutallyrandom.bsky.social @brutallyrandom.bsky.social · 13/09/2025
Indeed - that’s the outwardly story, the real reason they were all so furious is that video games was a boys club and she didn’t belong. And her questioning their worldview probably made them think, look in the mirror and a brief moment of realization made them furious so they lashed back at her

A woman dared to say things “why is the damsel always in distress” or “why do video game women seem to often have giant boobs with tiny clothing” and games subsequently ruined her life for daring to do so

It’s been a decade We see it Normal everyday people who have empathy now live in fear Don’t worry. We see it

I know they are angry - but I struggle with why they are so angry at people like me I’m a straight white guy, married, hold a job, pay my bills, volunteer and watch more college football than I ought to But to millions - I am the enemy within because I try to show empathy or something equally bad

If you attend a dance class or volunteer as a single guy I promise there will be women there who will be happy to talk to you

It’s been a decade - at minimum let’s stop acting surprised

But that has to include people who don’t want to make things worse If there are people who DO want to make things worse on the board - of which there are tens of millions of those people in the US now - the lack of verification makes a lot more sense

As opposed to governing? Are we that upset that he’s not at the White House? I would be 100% onboard if he spent the rest of his term at any golf course he likes at taxpayer expense

Actually the goal appears to be to just keep going and pretend their assumptions were confirmed 100% by denying reality

Crazy idea - 1) Create an infrastructure bill that strictly entails putting up flagpoles and building ballrooms around the country 2) Put Trump in charge of the bill’s execution Open to other suggestions

Remember when WSJ “whacked” transgender people by falsely reporting baseless bullshit re: the bullet casings? It was yesterday Obvious to anybody who wants to see what really bothers them or not If transgender companies suddenly became popular and profitable the retraction would be done by now

Agree. And the problem isn’t entirely human - nearly every reinforcement, including social validation (likes), financial (Riley Gaines makes more $ than any collegiate swimmer), ratings (ad revenue), primary elections (small voter groups get extremists into general elections) angles towards extremes

I remember once when there was a comparison of US and Canadian news on a relatively slow day (in the 90s) American TV was headlining about shark attacks - Canadian TV opened with new speed bumps at a local school’s entrance Different times, different times…

Debate are hard and like you said - takes work and a want to make it happen The reality is that a political party along by with its financial and religious apparatus appear hell bent on ending their “shared commitment to the common project” Happy to be proven wrong but I’m not holding my breath

“Donald Trump will seize power for two more years” Only two? How optimistic

brutallyrandom.bsky.social @brutallyrandom.bsky.social · 12/09/2025
Because the last decade has shown that conservatives are interested in advancing right wing ideologies vis masquerading as a “news” outlet while corporate media doesn’t want to offend conservative billionaires (not profitable) so they proceed accordingly
