We are talking about a specific issue between a certain type of man and that is being complained of by a certain type of woman.

The issue is between straight men and women. I could add several qualifiers (we aren’t talking about metro sexual rakes for instance), but I think most people are aware of the type of men that fall into the categories we are discussing.

I was pointing out that any one can do what I did. A data point of one doesn’t mean much, sure. But unless a person has some disability they should be able to take a decent picture of themselves. We’ve had good digital cameras in our pockets for over a decade, it’s your own fault if you don’t learn how to use it.

What does fertility rate have to do with relationships? Sounds like a conservative/ incel talking point to me.

Apps and the algorithms suck for a lot of reasons, but they aren’t going away and we have to adapt.

Those are excuses. I took selfies and found my girlfriend of two years on a dating app. I learned how to pose myself and present a good image. One of the pictures is a major factor in why she started talking to me in the first place. My expression and eyes were what she liked.

I have body image issues, I had no one to help me, I have depression and anxiety, and I got it done. No one is asking men to move the earth. Women are just asking for them to give it a try and show that they give a shit.

It’s not culture wars, it’s men failing to even try a little bit to even look interested.

Because they are loud, and reasonable people are not. When the reasonable people get loud they shut up when reasonable critiques are made. At some point the reasonable people have to become unreasonable (by degree) so they can be heard.

It’s that men don’t take a lot of pictures of themselves. Then they refuse to take any specifically for their dating profiles. Taking pictures specifically for a dating profile would show that they actually care about finding a person they would do other things specifically for.

Just to clarify IEP is individual education plan. The programs are not usually separate from the schools. The DoE does provide funding based on the number of kids with IEPs to schools and districts.

In other words kids will still be arrested for being autistic. They just won’t have as good of an education.

I feel like the same thing happened to JD Vance

There were a few people on the left (with followings on social media) advocating for third party votes because Kamala wouldn’t say that she was going to stop sending money to Israel.

Post election, it looks like third party votes didn’t spoil anything.

Basically. The wings have to be able to bend that much so they don’t break off in strong winds or hard maneuvers.

It should be “self-avowed”

Be sure not to forget to vote in two years for House and senate.

I know, I can’t even tell what I’m supposed to be looking at

I have a desktop and there’s no reason for it to constantly be drawing power. It boots fast enough even with fast boot disabled that it’s not an issue for me.

I leave my work laptop on, but it lives on my desk at work. Not my power bill not my problem. I still have to regularly reboot it because windows can’t update without reboots.

Literally every single time I use it. I only need it to be on when I’m using it, and I don’t use it every day.

Sure, but my keyboard doesn’t have a power button.

Exactly, they keep honest people honest, just like piracy protection.

These things are like door locks. The point is to make it harder to pirate than to pay. This doesn’t mean people won’t pirate. Just like a door lock doesn’t mean people won’t burgle.

If it took a long time to open the door because the lock is too complex, it is the lock maker’s fault not the burglar’s fault. The solution is to buy a new lock.

My main use the disc drive is used games.

The only apps that can give me notifications are my messenging app my phone app and my email app. The rest get notifications blocked on install.

It is fundamental to the democratic form of government that “rights are at the mercy of public opinion.” The other options are for rights to be at the mercy of capricious monarchs, dictators, or oligarchs.
