Sometimes I find some memes I haven’t seen at a garage sale, brush the dust off, and they’re good as new!

I’ve heard it’s one of those ways they haze new operators.

That’s good advice. You’ve got my vote.

I’m not sure that Kanye truly belongs to any time period.

I think it’s all of them, now that you mention it.

Yeah, that AI “shimmer” makes it really obvious, but I have to admit that I’ve been tricked some recently.

A lot of young men are lacking role models and community these days.

More kids are growing up without fathers around now (single parenthood is up from 9% in the 1960s to about 25% today).

Most people’s source of community used to be church, but since the advent of the internet, people are rapidly moving away from organized religion. I think this has disproportionately impacted men, who tend to be less social on average.

And I think in general, a lot of young men feel like nobody cares about their personal struggles.

So, even some toxic dude like Andrew Tate can show up and say “Hey, you’re great. Here are the reasons why things are bad for you and what you should do, and here’s a community of like-minded people to interact with.” and these guys are going to dive in head first.

I had them! Hurt myself plenty…

Can’t be too careful out here.

(But honestly this meme was stolen and I didn’t notice)

Wow, I didn’t realize Lexapro had been around so long.

These kind of products went hard in the Y2K era.

You did good, I just saw a bunch of reports and thought the title looked like some of the spam we occasionally get. I’m sure the people down voting thought the same thing, so I wouldn’t read too much into that.

Lol, thank you. I saw 4 reports on this post and nearly removed it just now before double-checking.

Is this another terrible consequence downwind of Citizens United?

“Boulevard” has to be one of the more difficult words he could have picked out, lol

I think that’s what they did during his first term, right? I remember him skipping the event altogether.
