What's it like having kids for those who have them?

One of the most violent years since the Cold War.

MS is dropping support for W10 in October 2025. I hope they iron out the issues with W11 before then. It such a bother to having switch.

Its the bad ass and boob jobs that men complain about. You don't notice its fake if its well done. I have a relative who had huge boobs but one day was suddenly flat chested comparitively since she had her implants removed. I had no idea they where fake. Its a funny story since I always liked getting hugs from her for two obvious reasons (we're not biologically related). And I heard she was coming to visit so you can imagine my dissapointment when she was suddenly flat like a pancake. I remember it vividly.

I believe different sports tend to select for certain body types. In kick boxing a lot of the highly skilled guys tend to be tall and lanky with very long limbs. A lot of guys in Aikido tend to be middle-aged guys with a huge gut stretching the seam of their hakama for some reason. Maybe that's just my experience though.

I think its kind of a funny premise to say to have a loving relationship to ones menstruation cycle. Its a waste process. Do you have a loving relationship towards taking a shit or pissing (please say no)? There's plenty of reasons to hate your period from what I hear just from how involving it is.

I don't think your period is the norm to be honest. Especially considering how you describe other women reacting to your period.

Maybe you have autism and the menstruation exacerbates sensory sensitivity, causing irritability, etc. That is a thing apparently according to a quick google search.

I'm quiet empathetic as a person actually. More than most when I was kid I think, back when empathy is still under development. I think it is interesting to ponder morality like that, lest you end up with some kind of binary understanding. A lot of times things are too grey to be understood in a simple fashion. It just a feeling essentially in my opinion. There is probably evolutionary reasons for why humans have a consciousness. Better at cooperating probably. But also for there to be people who lack consciousness could be a feature as well. Top leaders tend to be often more psychopathic. Being able to send thousands of people to their death for some kind of goal and sleep like a baby afterwards is an ability arguably. If you don't want to be good, consider however that there are ramifications of treating people poorly. It does tend to bite you back because your ability to live your life the way you want depends a lot on your relationships which depend on trust and if you abuse people they'll start distrusting and resenting you. There could be legal consequences.

Like, completely surrendered to your passions, cast away all morals and did whatever you want you could get away with, completely shamelessly, Sith style. Completely shirking all moral responsibility. Embezzle money, manipulate, rape and prostitute, lie, steal, kill. Be as racist, misogynistic and hateful as you want. Complete freedom. Take no responsibility for anything. Spiritually go postal. What would be wrong with that exactly? Surely, it would be a highly authentic experience to embrace being evil. Maybe you won't be THAT evil in practice just because you don't feel like it. Is this what its like to ascend morals?

There's plenty of reasons to practice martial arts besides ego gratification. So dismissive.

N. Koreans are stationed within Russia to bolster the defense and recapture of the Kursk region following the defense treaty between Russia and N. Korea signed in July this year. This is a fact. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm2796pdm1lo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Korean–Russian_Treaty_on_Comprehensive_Strategic_Partnership

My dad is the most resourceful person I know. Its to a degree where it is almost a bit ridiculous. He always carries a giant flashlight pouched on his belt. I had him remove his gadgets for Christmas eve but eventually we had a a situation where we where searching for something in the dark and he was complaining that he should've brought his flashlight. I'm pretty sure he can fix nearly any problem. From plumbing, electricity and cars to dealing with annoying guys. He's the gold standard for being resourceful in my opinion.

These countries are and where dysfunctional regardless of American intervention. China had a communist revolution then it became capitalist anyway. China has been improving as a country as a result in terms of poverty.

Korean soldier recently, which details how this soldier was sent as punishment to Ukraine for some kind of wrong doing. Apparently being sent to Ukraine can be a form om punishment in N. Korea. Quote from the diary: "I was raised in the nurturing embrace of the Party, studying without concern for anything in the world. There is more unknown love than love that is known and accepted. I didn’t know how to react to the happiness I was surrounded by. Defending the homeland is the sacred duty of every citizen, and the greatest duty is to protect the nation, which is where my happiness lies. I wear the military uniform of revolution to protect the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. I was honoured with the opportunity to be promoted to sergeant major in my company. However, I betrayed my beloved Party, which had placed its trust in me, and committed acts of ingratitude against the Supreme Commander-in-Chief. The sins I’ve committed are unforgivable, but my homeland has given me a chance for redemption, a fresh start in life. Now, I have no choice but to regain the trust I once had. I will go to the front lines in this operation and obey the orders of Supreme Commander Kim Jong Un without question, even if it costs me my life. I will show the world the invincible courage and sacrifice of the Red Special Forces (Red Commanders) of Kim Jong Un. When we win the war and return to our homeland, I will submit a petition to the Party." The diary also details how N. Koreans combat drones via live bait, using one soldier as live bait while two others track the drone with guns. Ukraine estimates that N. Korean causalties already exceeds 3000.

That's a problem.

Rookie saves the life of his partner from a nutcase with a shotgun but is shaken up afterwards. State trooper reassures him.

Surrounding countries, Europe, Asia, North Africa, America, Israel maybe. The how can be figured out. See who's willing to take in refugees.

Your are not entitled to a woman. That is the problem when you subscribe to some kind of model of success, you start having expectations. Then you get mad when you don't get the success you think you should get when following this model to the letter. Maybe you feel unattractive simply. Maybe that's why you cling to your model and feel entitled. Maybe you need to hire a prostitute a couple of times so your less desperate. Pay them to compliment you even. Make them say how good your cock is. Or roleplay you punishing them. Make your resentment something sexy. Or spend time with your mom, have her call you handsome by saying you feel ugly.

Resourcefulness is the greatest quality of a man in my opinion. The ability to help solve any problem. To be the one people turn to when they have a problem is a great feeling. Need that spider gone? My guys already took care of it. Strapped for cash? There's 5k in your bank account right now. Need to repair something? I have an arsenal of power tools and I'm not afraid of using it to its full potential. Some guys are so resourceful that it becomes a frustration as different people are constantly pulling on you for their needs.

They can't help how they're drawn...

I feel really sorry for those Palestinians. It is basically over. There is no chance at a decent life for them. Either they are murdered or subject to authoritarian rule, slowly wittled down till they are no more. The only long-term solution for the Palestinians I think is to give up. Leave. Surely Israel would consider a permanent cease-fire on the condition that all Palestinians leave. If there where just places that would take them. The greatest revenge is living.

My main concern with Canada and Greenland becoming American is that America won't treat them with the same dignity as they do the original 50 states. That they'll polute and economically gridlock and siphon these countries, especially Greenland, of their value like with those islands where they tested nukes and destroyed the local fish population (and became addicted to MCdonalds as a result). Its better to cut a deal that gives them some of what they want while being able to set rules and stipulations. There is much to gain from greater partnership and militarilly, the truth is that they both need the US to defend their sovereignthy from Russia and China. The rest of the western world also benefits from an American presence on Greenland in particular in the case of detecting and stoping long range missiles. That said, IF its Trump that wants to cut a deal, add another 0 or two to the price tag.

These wars are tragic and modern weapons are so immensely destructive for better and for worse. It does make waging war hardly profitable unlike our Stage Red roots but the destruction and terror they wreak is sometimes hard to comprehend. Which is why we live in the most peaceful age of human history. Its rather paradoxal. They better we get at killing our fellow man the more peace reigns. Violence is a sovereign power that everyone understands. Europe is the most peaceful and prosperous region in the world despite the enermous diversity over a relatively small space. We got our violence out of our system after two world wars. Like it or not, violence is a part of who we are. Its a matter of weilding it justly rather than not at all.
