It makes more sense when the isekai is the character getting transported away and immediately placed in mortal danger over and over like Wizard of Oz. Dorothy has a choice of a provincial life where she might grow up and a world where flying monkeys attack her every chance they get and she’s never not on the run the entire story.

If I were isekai’d I would probably be extremely curious about whether I had a connection to my old world. But I wouldn’t necessarily leap to go the first chance I got.

I think they mean the targets were guilty but the post office workers and secretaries that got bombed were still innocent.

Also, we’re a lot farther out on the end of one of the arms.

You and anyone else reading this just down vote this, it’s the best we can do.

They run this headline but to them they’re just remarking on the weather.

“Oh, seems like profits are going to capital today. Oh well, that’s the invisible hand of the market I guess. Nothing sinister here.”

Yes, you certainly can say this about any religion, something to think on. Right now it’s Christianity’s time to shine though since it is at the center of American fascism and is manufacturing complicity for one of the most serious child trafficking rings in American history.

Yes, but unlike on Instagram or Facebook, engagement doesn’t translate into a boosted account and cannot translate into money. So comments about the engagement bait aren’t playing into their hand since there’s nothing for the poster to benefit from.

Lots of answers but I think the explicit joke here is that grapefruit doesn’t work with certain types of antidepressant medications, which redbull’s clients are presumably on.

It was a powerful lie to convince most gun owners that a “right to a well-regulated militia” meant being able to individually own a gun and never be trained to use it or organize.

I think it’s best not to mind people who try any level of veganism. Even if they are lying to themselves and others etc. if someone makes even the slightest effort that advances the vegan movement it works in our favor. You can see it happen in real time.

There are more vegan products on the market today that are widely used by people who don’t even want to be vegan. Plenty of people just prefer oat milk or almond milk or do it exclusively for health reasons. The vegan movement is a rare fringe movement that’s actually broken through. The more people choose to just do “everything vegan but bacon/cheese” the more the demand for vegan products grows and the more people are incentivized to stock their shelves with vegan food over expensive and expiration prone meat products. It’s a movement that’s happening because the trajectory is passively positive with no real social pushback. Maybe in another couple years we can even start to cut government subsidies to meat products in favor of vegan products.

Not Sammy Sosa!

Maybe you can’t, but this liquor store can.

I’ve found that bad managers tend to think that they are looking for an ideal candidate. That candidate is mind numbingly obsessed with working for them that they will degrade themselves for the opportunity to work for their company. Like they hear fake stories from CEOs and influencers about how when they were working they worked all day every day and skipped lunch to make sure they were the best employee in the company and believe that if you just interview hard enough you’ll find that golden idiot.

As soon as you deviate from that, the manager tells themself “well, this person asked about the work hours and overtime policy, clearly they aren’t ready to work 10 hours a day for no extra pay.” And anyone they do hire will never be enough.

*cokes don’t explode for 6 hours

“See? They say it couldn’t be done, but I did it and we’ve got colder Cokes than ever before!”

*Cokes explode 2 hours later

“The corrupt Biden policies have allowed radical antifa terrorists to destroy my cokes. The freezer should have never been that cold.”

Nah the sig has way more feats if you read the lore. Honestly I think the power scaling is all over the place. Magnums are on fraud watch tbh haven’t done shit for feats in years.

infinite cheese = infinite holes = infinite no cheese.

I’ve got news for you about an easy way to stop these comments from appearing.

Again, I agree with you, you basically repeated and expanded on the point of the person I replied to. Like what you’re giving me is a good anthropological analysis.

But if you asked these women why/how they got to this point they would not say “well I’m just commiting to my performance of being a woman to appease the male gaze”

For one thing, most of them probably still hold agency to themselves despite the fact that it seems clear they are doing this to appease men. They would most likely have explanations for all their changes and who/what influenced them.

A terrifying probability is that these women literally get told by their spouses/others that if they don’t get these specific surgeries they won’t be able to do something. If it’s that then I would like to know who specifically tells them this and what they tell them.

What interests me is that I’ve never once heard an actual explanation. “They’re doing drag” might be true in an analytical sense from an outside perspective. But it’s not the reason they do it.

One would assume the reason you start is because you’re encouraged to get some Botox and subtle touch-ups are a very beauty trend among women. But they all end up with very similar features and it’s always overdone. So there must be common pushes and pulls. I would just like to hear it in their own words what has led them to this.

They’re not? They don’t have to be entitled to something to lose money on it.
