What do you mean "why are you sitting alone?"
Because you're all a bunch of twats that's fucking why! Let me have lunch in peace, Christ.

i don't understand how there are atheists in fictional settings where you can literally pray to the gods to bring someone back to life or heal wounds and it works, that always seemed like a dumb trope to me

Man, it's weird that there is a specific generation of imageboard users who hang onto outdated late-2010s memes as well. I wonder if in like 10 years people will be all nostalgic and sentimental about calling everything spooks and sneeds etc

Worse yet, there will be tons of teenies feeling sad about missing out on it.

How do I make friends?
You don't, it's all over,

If you're not in the education system you're not gonna be making any serious friendships.
schools are prison camps
>>811 the southern poverty law center has nothing to do with poor people, but it's an understandable misconception, like how melonpan has nothing to do with melons but one could easily be led by the name into thinking it does.
>>821 the shared misery of being forced to be in the same place all day performing pointless menial tasks together is what forges friendships while you're in school, therefore i recommend joining the military or playing an MMO.

Whenever someone publicly complains about [white males], however they phrase it, it always gives me a stupid smile and light laugh because they come off like obnoxious checkmarks on Twitter in more formal settings and there is some humour in that to me for some reason

The older I get the more I dislike "business management" games or "tycoons". I fiddle with tedious menus enough IRL.
I will never understand why people get so invested in sports that they get violent. Most if not all people who do this sort of thing are just audience members, but I suppose it fills the void for traditional tribalism.
The older I get the more I dislike management simulation'' games or colony builders''. I wrangle a bunch of obstinate dwarves enough IRL.
Everything from video games to spectator sports (most passively consumed media really) to even outdoorsy things seem to have these dark clouds of negativity hovering over them. I wonder if this is just reflecting the world right now or only because I only interact with hobby stuff online and the internet loves negativity.

SPLC is mostly known for their hate speech tracker and their pro-bono civil rights litigation. Also he asked "how often do you touch grass" because it's a thing they say at twitter and twitter is full of people talking about racism I guess, seems like a rather contrived way to diss someone, if you ask me.
It comes off as less pretentious than "go outside" or "read a book" etc etc

Sure. Keep giving me money, I'll keep making spaceships for ya.
>>834 i think it also has to do with vicarious feelings of vitality/masculinity, it's always the people who seem least capable of actually playing a sport that are the most emotionally invested in sports. everyone i know who's actually fit and athletic and watches sports watches them because they can appreciate it as a contest of athleticism and not as some kind of weird mock-war substitute.
put another way, people who are actually full of vitality and masculinity don't feel the need to engage in performative masculinity by eating chicken wings and drinking beer and screaming at the television, they just go lift weights or jog or something.
Men who are already performing masculinity don't need to perform masculinity because that'd be extra redundant.
I guess I'm just autistic and don't understand gender roles or social cues or whatever but I don't see "enjoying gender marketed product" as "performative masculinity". It always seemed insulting that things like "masculinity" and "femininity" are boiled down to aesthetic and product preferences, the kind of thing I thought we were more or less moving past seeing as gendered.
Performative or toxic masculinity to me is a man insisting on a fight after you accidentally brush shoulders in an effort to signal to others he doesn't "put up with shit".
I don't know why would you have negative feelings about the idea that one of the many metaphysical qualities surrounding a commodity include a tacit association to arbitrary social roles. Just for curiosity, what part is it the one that you don't agree with or feel like it's incorrect: the part where acquiring commodities actually brings about some sort of superegoistical enjoyment not strictly attached to its use-value by drawing from our sense of identity, or that gender roles are actually conventional and ill-defined and thus prone to change through the mere exchange of commodities?
I eat chicken wings and scream inappropriately at television but that's because I like the taste of buffalo sauce and get over-excited easily. I don't see what it has to do with masculinity because I would likely do this if I was a woman or something else
"You listen to every genre? Finally, appreciator of adult babyfur diaper thrash!"

Eh, I wouldn't say that it has anything to do with masculinity. I remember when people lost their shit multiple times during the women's world cup
>It always seemed insulting that things like "masculinity" and "femininity" are boiled down to aesthetic and product preferences, the kind of thing I thought we were more or less moving past seeing as gendered.
I agree, I have some trans friends, male and female, who said they weren't into girly things like ponies and make-up when they were young and so they decided they must be a boy (and vice versa) isn't that just reinforcing gender stereotypes?
Drinking a lot of water feels weird and urinating constantly is annoying
>>856
Is it a surprise that a superficially progressive "community" would be pushing anti-liberal pidgeonholing ideas, like some kind of a reactionary? It's especially convenient when any and all opponents can be dismissed and/or demonized as horrid transphobiacks.
Remember: boys have short hair, girls have long hair.
Hair length is something I don't even associate with masculinity/feminity and I didn't even realize it. Long hair on men depends on the person and can look really bad or really good depending on the guy. Sometimes it can be MORE masculine like in the case of metal
>>859 Maaaybe but long-haired metalheads still get called poofs by some people no matter how masculine they behave
>>857
Drinking a lot of water feels GREAT and urinating constantly is NOT AN ISSUE

im gay & have long hair & can squat more than anyone on this board, if anyone made fun of me or called me a sissy or w/e i'd just beat them up. that's what real masculinity is.
>>866 I was talking about how I get called a poof for having long hair, even when I'm with my girlfriend. Maybe it's my Hello Kitty backpack.
Hello Kitty more like Hello Titties
ray peat stans be like: dont drink water on an empty stomach or eat salmon or you'll fucking die, but coca-cola is a health food.
>>866 Gay people do a LOT of squatting so I don't doubt that for a second! But the "eye can do more exercises than u" and "hurr u insulted me so now eye have to beat u up" attitudes are the performative aspect they were talking about before.
>>871 i was the one talking about performative masculinity and i was making fun of the like, sean hannity listener types who jack off about how manly they are because they drink beer and watch sports but they're fat and weak and haven't touched a football in 30 years. while being ACTUALLY strong and masculine isn't something you can perform, you have it or you don't. and like it or not, strength and vitality are integral to masculinity.
performative masculinity: big trucks, big guns, beer, chicken wings, watching sports, trucker hats, dick jokes. a simulacrum of actual masculinity caused by the absence of truly masculine traits such as loyalty, fraternity, willpower, physical and spiritual strength, the ability to lead and command respect, etc.
not performative masculinity: posting on the elitist superstructure of dqn
it's possible to not be particularly physically strong and still be masculine, look at T.E. Lawrence, who was NOT a tall dark handsome peter o'toole style buff lady's man but was actually a 5'3 blonde porcelain-skinned vegetarian twink. rather than physical strength, he was endowed with an enormous strength of character and the ability to command respect and loyalty despite his stature. it's something you can't understand from a purely materialist perspective.
sorry i love boys so i think a lot about masculinity and what it means
>>872 yeah but feeling the need to prove it to others is the performance, seems like insecurity
>strength and vitality are integral to masculinity.
Idk this seems like an empty meaningless statement
> big trucks, big guns, beer, chicken wings, watching sports, trucker hats, dick jokes.
That's just a list of traits American people have? Loyalty and fraternity are more feminine traits, and hasn't it been found that countries led by women do better in some ways than ones led by males trying to prove how powerful they are?
How the fuck are chicken wings related to masculinity? It's a fun novelty food that isn't too heavy to drink with
performative masculinity is attempting to attack a pro wrestler and then dedicating your failed attack to Jim Cornette on twitter
>That's just a list of traits American people have?
yes and americans are generally fat, lazy, cowardly, and weak, both of body and spirit. i would not call the average american "masculine" in any way at all.
>Loyalty and fraternity are more feminine traits
christ this is what happens when they stop teaching classics in school. please read the illiad or something.
>classics
That's bizarre because The Odyssey arguably started the woman as a prize/reward for the hero, I thought that was the bad part of masculinity in fiction that was common until the last 10 years. I don't know if themes in classics are necessarily healthy to teach nowadays
>countries led by women
It always makes me laugh in a dumb way whenever generic female leaders are brought up because of the dead thatcher memes
>>880 Looking it up maybe I was wrong about fraternity, maybe in Greek times but when I think of fraternity today I think of gossipy hens at knitting club, sharing the dick pics they've received that week and having a laugh together. But regarding loyalty, wouldn't you agree the traditional view is that a man with lots of sexual partners is respected, while the woman is expected to stay loyal to her husband?
