Oh he has poor English ability. Very poor. The poorest English, I mean, some people say "Trump why are you so poor at English?" and he says "I know, that's why the made me president."

Fühle ich, aber es geht um nicht weniger als die Existenz seines gesamten Landes. Insofern größten Respekt, dass er sich das so lange angetan hat!

Elon and his ilk are not just vile and revolting but also pitiful. For all his riches and power, I would hate to be him. What a sad sack of shit.

Cool idea but human beings crave identity. And gender is an important way to express identity. I think that might be one of the reasons why some people feel so threatened by the existence of non-cis gendered people. Refusing to conform to preconceived notions of identity-by-gender challenges their sense-making processes, inducing anxiety.

Plus, our entire human race is reliant on the attraction between the sexes. Gender isn't easily extricable from that. A manly man will always have an easier time finding a woman.

I like the spirit of human first but I fear it might not be as simple as that.

Thank you for calling attention to this. To answer your question, I try to avoid toxic people. To be honest I still have some deeply rooted beliefs about manhood myself that are similarly hurtful to the ones you named.

So I don't know, really. But I've been working on myself and on being happy with who I am. It's definitely paying dividends but I still have some ways to go.

I've sometimes thought that things would be much easier if I were gay because I'd fit the mould in many ways. Except for the most important one, as I'm just not into dudes at all and very much like to be with women.

Having observed other men through my almost 50 years of life, I find that many are probably just masking their sensitivity behind a veil of foul language, aggressive behavior, and machismo. Those men I find particularly hard to bear.

Yeah, I'm mostly a single player kind of guy, so I enjoy my games like Return of the Obra Dinn, Dredge, Balatro, Dave the Diver, etc.

From what I hear, some older multiplayer titles can be made to run using cracks and some kind of VPN.

Oh, maybe I should clarify what I meant: we still get cool, enjoyable new games nowadays that are every bit as good as the classics we played and loved then. If not better.

I think my biggest tip would be to stay away from pretty much anything labeled AAA.

Come on, those games still exist. They might be overshadowed by a layer of slop but they are still there.

Genau, mit Umlaut geht es um die Möglichkeit, ohne Umlaut ist es die Vergangenheit. Könnten/Konnten, möchten/mochten, hätten/hatten, dürften/durften... denke einfach daran, dass der Umlaut die Aussage verkompliziert:

Wir waren nicht tatsächlich dort, wir wären theoretisch dort gewesen.

Like who? The Republicans have bought into his death cult wholesale. Their god-emperor can do no wrong.
