if men display feelings, they’re seen as bitches by men, and weak by women (exceptions exist, but generally speaking).

basically, a piece of toxic masculinity….
men are only allowed to display emotions of anger or mild happiness.
i think this is a big reason why sports are so popular… it’s more about camaraderie than anything else.
also why they like to get drunk and say “i love you man” and all that mushy stuff.

in a nutshell: because they’re taught to be that way.

in middle school, a girl in my grade died at summer band camp from a bee sting….
a group of girls called me to tell me she wanted to be her boyfriend. i declined, as it wasn’t the first time i had the joke girlfriend trick played on me…
but i guess the prank was, i was supposed to say yes, then be heartbroken when i found out she was dead…
instead i was heartbroken that anyone would try to do that to anyone.

i feel you… but by subconsciously i mean, if you’re somewhere and half the people have leather shoes, yours will seem normal. if everyone around doesn’t, then it’ll feel differently… mostly subconsciously….
it’s sorta like a vote saying “leather is normal”….

you could donate your used stuff, slightly reduces overall manufacturing…. (by nearly nothing).
also, my main problem with that, is wearing leather and such still helps keep it normalized, subconsciously, of course….

i have doc martens i found in a dumpster and i just haven’t found anything that compares to leather when it comes to rough-use footwear… so yes im a hypocrite, im just saying its a consideration….

i had some reinforced canvas boots one and they sucked.

there’s a lot of clearweb sites dedicated to subtitles… and they have different versions for different pirated files.

here’s some: https://www.guru99.com/subtitles-download-english.html

well at least they appreciate irony

this hits close to home….
i have to keep reminding myself: clean everything just a little bit, and then a little bit more, and then again, and then you can meticulously organize some box of stuff you barely use…

if you make a new torrent out of the downloaded one’s directory, the hash should match up and magnet should automatically be the same torrent you downloaded.
although your os probably threw some hidden files in there to fuck that up.
the main filename is usually unique and searchable though… and you could start the new download, let it create folders and temp files, then stop it and copy the completed files over, then manually recheck the torrent….
you’d need a new download directory of course….
(i’ve done this one)
futurewise you can have some programs automatically save a .torrent file for new downloads (qbittorrent, at least).

yes but why is probably the bulk of it…

in journalism they teach you to only do headlines with a question if the answer is no, otherwise just make it say “piracy is justified”.

obviously this guy is a musician and not a journalist, and as such, actually thinking about things he makes….
(i like his other videos too)

no like i’ve been a computer nerd my whole life and went to college for computer science… and i control my own computer, unlike almost everyone else.
and at least with a pc you can control it… most people don’t

yeah but i actually control my computer
