Personally I’d want a partner more than a 20something fuckservant as well, but I can definitely see the appeal for horny old dudes with too much money. That also somewhat ignorantly precludes the possibility that the young woman has more to offer than her body though, which I’d think is quite likely in reality.

You’re old, single, horny and financially solvent. Why would you not want a 20 year old live in maid / fucktoy? You have no fucks left to give what anyone thinks, the girl is okay with it, so why not enjoy your last years? Transactional relationships are common all around the world.

“No, my son can’t come out and play today. He hasn’t finished his lunch transfats for the third day in a row and is grounded until he learns to appreciate the empty carbs I work hard to put on the table.”

Just one thing. The SPD doesn’t carry socialist in its name, they are social democrats. Capitalists with a veneer of social responsibility (which they haven’t taken serious in decades).

It doesn’t matter to me whether the man or woman has the job, what matters to me is that one working person could support a family, kids, owning a home, some vacations and still had enough money to save up and be generally not very concerned with finances.

Think of who you thought was cool as an idiot teenager, or in general before you “knew better”.

Now apply this to the less educated part of the population, add a lack of actual male role models to compare to and sprinkle it with a bunch of toxic traditional stereotypes how a man should be and behave.

Well if you are becoming V, then yes it sucks either way. But V isn’t exactly filthy rich, they are just some random merc decked out in cyberware. I was more thinking being someone like the arasakas. Or some other nepotism profiteer living the good life

Well yes but if you get to be the protagonist, aka the winner in a world of only winners and losers, that’s fine. I’m sure I wouldn’t hate capitalism as much if I were filthy rich and a beneficent of the system

Why tho, lemmy has no karma. Doesn’t matter what they post or if it ends up being popular or not.

So obviously people shouldn’t be shitting all over some random new guy joining lemmy for making an innocent post, they learn the ropes around here soon enough.

Provided dipshits don’t scare them off with unfounded hostility

Imagine this: you can just say nothing. You dont have to leave a shitty, hostile comment on posts not appealing to you. Just shut the fuck up and move on.

Bsky is just another corporate venture, it is probably better than any other commercial alternative but it will inevitably go the same route as the others people are fleeing.

Maybe you shouldn’t be able to buy an America sized bag of novelty plastic waste for 10 bucks.

Def depends on where you go. As a german who has visited most European countries at least once, and a bunch of others as well, I found my preconceptions confirmed more often than not.

Or in a case where I went without any due to deliberately not looking up any information beforehand I was severely let down. Looking at you, Serbia.

out ratio use

I really miss /boneappletea

Probably, though I really don’t want politics being shoved into a literal shitposting community without any prompt in the op either way. I have my own political issues to worry about over here in Germany and have only so much mental capacity for gloomy copeposting now that trump was re elected.

There is also a wide range of communities available for political venting elsewhere, why does it have to be a non political post in a shitposting community? Where am I supposed to go if not here to avoid that stuff?

Can we have one fucking post without american politics getting shoehorned in?

I get it’s important to you but perhaps keep it to topics or communities at least somewhat related. You know, for the two people in the world not living in the us.

For that time when you look at your motion detector alert footage, but are unsure whether you are looking at a package or a person?

Brown note? 👀

I would immediately try to weaponize it. Spend a weekend making putin telepathically shit his brains out without pause should probably be enough to make him die from the sheer loss of matter and nutrients.

As a daily smoker, yes.

Though I will contest that it is largely psychological, when i go on a break after a couple days of poor sleep and appetite i am back to normal.

Wait am I still on the left side
