Go outside and exercise as much as possible, while consuming sufficient water and electrolytes. Your body and mind adapt to the conditions you put them in.

Most people avoid the discomfort of adapting to changing temperatures as the seasons change. But if you just go for a walk outside on your lunch break and ride a bicycle around after work or something, you’ll find you are much more tolerant of the ambient temperature.

Simple. What do young men care about? Getting laid and getting paid. Promise them that, and you’ll get their votes.

You’ll need to use coded language, of course. But using coded language is politicians’ whole job.

1. Erect such high standards of moral purity that you cannot possibly win elections.
2. Lose elections.
3. Complain about how those in power never make anything better.
4. Maintain your sense of moral superiority, since if you never have power, you can never fuck up.

Because the definition of counterculture is “against the mainstream”.

The liberal viewpoint has been the mainstream for probably 50 years now. There’s a reason there’s a song called “Nazi Punks Fuck Off”. Because there are Nazi punks. Who exist because not being racist is mainstream, and you can therefore rebel against it.

Liberal politicians do it because it’s been pushed by the left. It’s how they keep leftists voting more centrally. They take left wing ideas, then water them down enough to appeal for centrist voters. Centrists find common sense ideas appealing, while those on the left get a dog whistle.

You’re making an excellent point here. I’ll bring it up at the next Council of Men that we should stop oppressing women. Good thing we figured that out - top notch work!

Ok.

Have fun losing.

I don’t think you understand how politics works in a democracy.

I like my coworkers. They’re cool. I just went to acro yoga with one, and go bouldering with another. We show up, talk shit, and get the job done - sometimes it’s a good time. Sometimes we get our asses kicked. But that builds camradrie, too.

I will say, this is blue collar stuff. When I worked as a software dev, I definitely didn’t care about spending much time with my coworkers.

Moe is when you take your fetish/the type of girl you like, then draw an anime girl about it. But the girl is cute, not sexy, and fully clothed and doing normal, not sexy things. It is very weird. I do not understand this level of sexual repression. It feels like the online porn art equivalent of getting a human shaped pillow to hug while you sleep at night.

I agree with this comment in general, but don’t think Ferrell is a good example. Or really, maybe he is a good example, but the way his movies are shot isn’t a good example.

In Ferrell movies, the gag is that the actor says or does something outrageously dumb, and then the other actors largely go along with it, either pumping up the idea, or being coerced by it, or stomping it down in a hilariously insulting fashion. If there is ever a moment of awkward silence, it lingers for a second before the scene ends. Arrested Development is another example of this being done well. It’s a farce - the actions are so bizarre and outlandish that we can’t possibly imagine ourselves doing it, so we are absolved of sympathy for the cartoonish actor and enjoy seeing them fumble their way through the scene.

But there is a new wave of “cringe comedy” that seems to not understand what a farce is. A character will do something just beyond the limit of what we could imagine ourselves doing, so we can still identify with the character. Then the other characters react in the way people would react in real life - with stern condemnation or cold shouldering. And the scene goes on and on and on. It is terrible.

Right! We’re a bunch of 16 year old white boys who worship Xi!

You can just turn on the NSFW filter for your main feed. Removes pretty much everything except the “moe” communities.

Sidenote: you Moe people are weird af. Please tag your communities as NSFW. I would honestly rather have someone look over my shoulder and see a hardcore gangbang post than see me looking at fully clothed anime girls.

I don’t believe in God, but I believe in Leonard!

The problem you’ll run into is (1) most leftists/liberals don’t own guns, and (2) most leftists/liberals are relatively affluent and will not be directly effected by Trumps policies. There is not a culture of being armed and organized among them.

The golden rule here is whoever has the gold makes the rules (quite literally).

That’s not an American thing. It’s a human thing.

Yeah, those people are ridiculous. Unthinking hedonists are the worst. That’s why I only hang out with thinking hedonists. We do thorough research on the drugs we use to understand the potential downsides, risks, and benefits, and we carefully consider who to allow into our orgies based not only on looks, but also on how likely they are to have stis or cause drama. Reasonably considered hedonism is a much better way to live your life.

That was informative. Thank you!
