I agree with you but watching people do math is about as exciting as watching people do math.

Pshew! I was starting to worry I might be.... old! As long as we’re all in agreement, I’m ok.

Did you just propose that we ban Ban during Ban Week?

Ah, from the Steve Bannon Collection.

Indeed. Enjoying the sadness of right wingers is truly one of life’s simple pleasures. Mocking their displays of monumental stupidity is a close second.

ugh, perfumed women at work, ugh.

And the winner for Best Beta Boy Blogger goes to Hamilton “Cucks” Nolan. Good luck marking territory with weak ass deodorant as Alphas dominate your crushes. That’s why I always cover my neck in real blood before I go out; puts out a good “I’m dangerous and live in the woods” feel. Chicks love it, as told by the…

Girls: Also stop. Nobody who is standing 15 feet away from you in a crosswind wants to smell your skanky floral, your geriatric vanilla, your decaying rose oil, your designer RAID bugspray knockoff, I mean what the fuck is that shit anyway?

But I like Jean Nate!

The use of “woke” is rather tongue-in-cheek in this case—the dude’s not ACTUALLY a feminist, just appropriating its language—just like the term is appropriating the language of people of color.

This is why I don’t trust anyone who engages in what I like to call woke-speak. The sort of language that is fine for an article but shouldn’t be the way people casually speak to each other. It’s either a red flag in the case of woke misogynists, or just super performative and unnatural in the case of well meaning but…

This is said so well I wish I could shout it from the rooftops. “We follow the same people on twitter!” somehow gets misconstrued as “He’s a super nice guy and a totally woke* (blugh) feminist, too!” I think it’s giving rise to a new, easier form of creeping. If you hit the right talking points you can get someone to…

No, I think what they were saying is that depth or nuance of thought has been replaced by a checklist of aesthetic signifiers. Does this person use the correct terminology and namecheck the right things? And do we rely on that instead of getting to know someone in depth? I’m not sure I agree but I can see where…

I think it’s pretty clear that the parallel there is being a hypocrite...

Seems like they are saying that being a good person has been transformed into a pastiche of talking points and following the right people on twitter. Society purports to vilify “bad guys” and lift up “good guys” and because the media we interact with is necessarily shallow, we are shallow as well in our ideas about…

I bet someone, somewhere is punting a PUA scheme that teaches its customers how to act ‘woke’

Damn, this hits close to home. Thank for this piece, made me think about a lot of encounters and frustrations I’ve had over the years. There’s this thing I’ve noticed about dudes who are ‘allies’, who wave their feminist flag from the rooftop, but then once I let my guard down physically it feels like they are trying…

Damn, do I understand this. “[H]e apologizes nicely and indulges you in a thoughtful conversation after the offending incident.” “These men, in turn, are unusually willing to Talk It Out, often leading to maddening head games.” It’s incredibly discouraging. Sadder and wiser, I try to stay away from these types, but…

Thank you for this!

This is what being shallow gets you. You accept the appearance of people, or their projection of “eligible”, “progressive”, etc. at face value. After all of this time and progress, society is just run a full lap around peace, and now we are stuck back in the darkness. Somehow, being a good person has been commoditized…
