I'm observing something interesting about the state of masculinity - which is that contrary to the 'testosterone, red pill, masculine qualities' narrative peddled by Vitalik, Zuckerberg etc, the actual evolution of masculinity seems to be pointing towards a meta-modern feeling of existing in multitudes. My point being, I'm seeing young men embrace masculinity that is empathetic, kind, sincere and vulnerable yet strong, determined and ambitious. It's the archetype of the 'Dark Prince'. Meme incoming but wanted to get this thought out there.

Great speech. Thielian, techno-optimist, yet Schmittean...friendly and menacing at the same time, the right dose of tech and trad rightism, I would say, and essentially American in a good way. Strong message well delivered.

For those who don't get it, Haruhi Suzumiya is the title character of one of the most influential and well known stories in the otaku community, but said story isn't mainstream by today's standards.

So if you claim to be a fan of anime/manga, but you haven't even heard of this character, then you're likely actually a fan of MAINSTREAM anime/manga which is just a subculture of the entire thing. Thus, any and all opinions you might have would be limited to that small part of the community and have less weight when talking about the culture as a whole.

The otaku community, at large, doesn't want all anime/manga to be like mainstream anime/manga.

This is the equivalent of claiming to be a superhero fan but your only exposure to them is MCU films, so you critique all superhero media as though they were MCU films while claiming to have a good grasp on the hobby as a whole.

This mentality is very annoying to anyone within any hobby and is a big reason why gatekeeping is becoming more and more accepted. Hobbyist don't want tourists deciding what needs to be changed about the thing they love.

Wanna talk about being down bad?

Wanna talk about getting scammed or rugged?

My wife eats an entire bag of Doritos in 1 sitting.

Her farts, peel the paint off the walls.

When I met her, she weighed 127lbs at 5'6, now she's 225lbs.

But if I leave, she gets half of everything

In 2003, I (somewhat naively) considered myself anti-racist, a feminist, and self-reflective about my own privileged social status. Gripped by a fear of repeating patterns of domination, I avoided all but the most clearly "safe" heterosexual scenarios. As such, most of my intimate encounters took on a tone of conservative sexual diplomacy and made no room for the absurd, titillating application of domination at play in lyrics like "girl, let me nut on your face / and let me know how good it tastes." By struggling to understand this strange music, I was forced to put my own sexual practices in question.
