Poland. It's not that summer is amazing - it just sucks the least.
It's hot and everything wants to eat you, but it's colorful and sunny and summer nights are ahhhhhh...
Autumns tend to be pretty. And rainy as hell. Meh.
Winter was pretty when I was a kid. Nowadays it's autumn, minus pretty and plus balls freezin off. No snow, fuck you.
Spring is wet and green, but also cold. Good contender against summer, barely loses IMO.
Edit: Additional context - when it gets cloudy and grey in Poland, it gets fucking uber depressing. I dunno what it is, but almost can feel thr grey communist past creepin up...
"I am simply saying that because I care about you."
"You cannot take it literally, you know what I mean"
"Stop pretending to be hurt and think it through"
"Stop looking for excuses and instead admit I'm right"
He never was. When teenagers used to scream n-word for shit and giggles, he was monetarily incentivised to do stupid stunts. No belief behind, other than to have a laugh and jump in views. When he crossed the line and was critised for it, he backed off, apologised and learned from his mistakes.
But people love draging it out each and every single time he does anything, be it good or bad.
In short, a bunch of years ago he did some stunts for publicity that put him in a bad light. And don't get me wrong, he deserved criticism back then. But it quickly became apparent that it wasn't his view, but just that - a publicity stunt, something to drive algorithms etc, and he also apologised for it and what's more important, didn't make similiar shit afterwards.
So no, not a nazi. In the past you could call him edgy or something, alas even that doesn't really fit as he didn't do this all the time. But people saw he is popular and saw what he did and decided that no matter that these were one-offs, he must be a nazi, secretely harbor a shrinet o Hitler and all that.
Let's slightly overanalyse.
Men overall don't have to sweat it with relationships. If it works, it works, if it doesn't, it doesn't.
Women don't have that. Other women tend to be mean for no reason, or fish for gossip. Men overall aim for their asses or relatinship. And then there is also social expectation of them not being "easy" and behaving in dignified way.
So yeah. Men have socialisation set on easy, women on hard.
Edit: And I am pulling a lot of this outta my ass, deal with it B)
Throwing it out there - I am tired of left always acting as if something done decade ago was still fresh. Pewds changed, he flipped his whole video formula, and even back then evil things he did were at least questionable. Let it go folks. You are doing nothing else than making yourself look like bitter old people.
Edit: I noticed it's not obvious what I am talking about. Other comments. People constantly talking about how Pewds is a nazi.
Dude, eff that, influx of bullshit from reddit would be nowhere near. It wouldn't be problem of bullshit. It would be problem of scale. Remember how instances panicked and had to grow at neckbreaking speed during reddit exodus?
This would be bigger, while at the same time having a lot less long-term benefits because a lot of his audience wouldn't stick around.
I am not from US but...
Your paper bags don't have handles? WTF? That's not a bag - that's a fancy packaging paper. Where I live, paper bags have handles made from...paper. Just tightly twisted, the same bag itself is made of, and it holds astoundingly well. You can feel when when the bag is too heavy to handle, but as of today, I only had bag itself give out rather than handles.
Worked shortly nights on a gas station. 12h shifts. Went homr and slept like a baby. No regrets because not full job, I averaged 140h/momth.
It was glorious...but I am a night owl xD
Bite me.
PS: It' Murder Drones by Glitch and Liam Vickers, free on YT if ya wanna watch. Fun, condensed af, slightly scatterbrained in beginning tho (gets more focused later on). Whole one season.
Seen this in the wild where I live. Post reminded me of it. xD
Edit: Forgot context. Proudly displayed hiring advertisement on a wall of market known to be overworking it's employees. A lot.
"You hear them boys?! We are not to humiliate those idiots! LIVE ROUNDS BOYS!"
Hey. Nice try. My own comment tho, slightly higher.
Women have strong support movement on their side. It's not something they gain only through their sex, but rather something they gain I think mostly due to the same gender stereotypes that also act against them.
I never said women don't have expectations on them, in fact I literally said the opposite ^^ In the part you quoted I underlined just the fact that men face certain problems, not that only men face certain problems.
Eh. Nothin' to lose.
What are men’s problems? What problem do we suffer that also doesn’t affect women?

Same stereotypes which isolate men and make them suffer in silence and alone, making showing any sign of weakness a fatal mistake.
Isn’t that what you are doing to feminist right now? Isn’t that what the article is talking about with the man-o-sphere?
I honestly don't see your point here - what commenter above you said is right, and sure as hell they didn't mention that it doesn't work the other way around.
Lol, like we men are immune from corporations promoting masculinity? Old spice, axe body spray, every sports based commercial… What gender do you think the majority of the CEO for these companies are?
What are men problems, huh? Like, dunno, expectation to always go after that false masculinity. Also, as far as I understand it, what you quoted above this part is just continuation of the point above it, nothing to add here.
Capitalism isn’t a fucking gender problem…it is the thing making everyone’s lives miserable. If we wanted to examine gender in capitalism we can take a look at which of the genders gains more from the system. What percent of the oligarchs are men, how many billionaires are men, how many senators and judges that keep the system going… it’s mostly dudes.
Yeah, but affects genders differently. Men are eaten, ground to a paste and then spat out. Women are bellitled and their work is seen as substandard. One side doesn't make the other any less, both are problems and commenter above you didn't say men have it worse, just that they suffer from it.
And the rich switch genders or something? Women can’t be part of the struggle against capitalism? What is wrong with you guys, do you not have mothers, sisters, women in your lives who are just friends?
What commenter above you is alluding to is the point of the whole post - Men do not get help. We do not have the same societal networks that women have to get together and stand up. And even if women decided to fight for us, it's for naught until we are able to start getting up by ourselves.
Young white men are being squeezed out of the ownership class for the first time and it’s because it’s the only demographic that hasn’t already been squeezed at this late stage of capitalism. The problem isn’t with women, it is the economic system that dangles a carrot for some, so they’ll wield the stick against others…and we’re all out of carrots. Welcome to the party, everyone else has been getting the stick the whole fucking time.
'kay. What's with that obsession with women? Commenter above you mentioned once that feminism can use men to portray them as evil, which they do because guess who makes them suffer most, and yet due to that you immediately went and threw everything they said as if they did nothing else but accuse women of men's suffering.
All in all, as far as I understand the comment above you, all boils down to:
- Women gain on current situation so it makes sense they don't act.
- Corporations gain on current situation so it makes sense they don't act.
- Rich gain, and even if not then loose nothing on current situation so it makes sense they don't act.
Which are answers to question at the beggining:
Is there even an incentive for solving men’s problems?
IMO, the incentive is for us to move our asses, take notes from women and build our own support networks. But that is actually fought against by conservatists/right-wingers, because lonely and lost men make cheap and easily influenced canon fodder.
Just a pink mohawk and 21% chance to turn into a somewhat humanoid pig. Nothing to worry about 'till someone named Duke doesn't begin runnin 'round.
Dude, he just got thrown off by just how slow it is. Like in fighting games. You are used to opponent light spamming the ever loving shit outta ya, so when he throws out a slow ass heavy you dodge just for the tracking to jump in later than normal and boom, got hit
Thanks for the response anyway! So basically "Don't sass me". This is simply sad, but even more sadly fits our current times :/
This pissess me off so much. I was raised in christian family. And I mean motherfucking christian. I was taught from young age to show compassion, to help other, to help others up even if I don't personally like them. This is what it means to me to be christian. Compassion, love, and charity. Help others without asking for anything back.
Which is also core of fucking theoretical communism, so no wonder that also fell.
But it pissess me off when I meet people who are soooooo fucking hardcore believers, each sunday in church, always praising god and then they start the goddamn gossip of the day. Because Annie has a man of a slightly darker carnation, it's obvious Annie is abused, poor Annie but in the end Annie knew what she was doing, oh that poor hoe hope she finds god in her life. FFS these gossipin pseudo-christians should find god in their life -.-'
There's epigram in polish, fun little thing by Jan Kochanowski. Translation would be
"If you're not sinning, as you're telling me, why are you, dear, confessing so often?".
I was raised in broken family, my partner in one held by force.
We both have mental problems, but mine are significantly lower...and mostly tied to my mother's alcoholism.
She, meanwhile, went through hell and tried her best to avoid being at home for more time than she was asleep. Took every additional class, participated in every after school activity and spent time hangin with everyone she could stomavh just to not be home.
My worst memory is the defeat on my mother's face when she couldn't find job for a long time n-th time.
Hers are screaming matches between parents bordering violence.
Yeah, screw holding marriage together.
