Wow. How narcissistic is it to assume everyone thinks like you? You don’t speak for me. Maybe you got issues with your narcissistic parents but sadly they’ve rubbed off on you. You might want to look in the mirror before you continue being the very thing you claim to despise.

I feel the same about people who make posts like yours. Its pretty narcissistic to assume the reasons you think they do it are the only reasons.

A bit rich for the pot to be calling the kettle black. Whats more gross is you are downplaying actual abuse when you put unimportant shit like this on the same level as actual abuse.

Man you are an AH. The baby oven functioning properly is not a guarentee. Its something a lot of people struggle with. I find you much more cringe than people wanting to throw an extra party. The only gender reveal party ive ever been to was for people with fertility issues. They had several miscarriages and that pregnancy meant the world to them. Seeing the gender on ultrasound was a milestone theyd never reached despite years of heartbreak.

So you’re insensitive and edgy, big whoop. You don’t need to post about it and pretend you are hot shit.

Its not my thing but I can understand why people do it. I had friends who had a ton of fertility issues and several miscarriages. Finding out the gender on ultrasound is a milestone. They had never had a pregnancy last that long. It means they made it that far and all looked well. They wanted to celebrate as much as possible. They didn’t care what the gender was and that pregnancy meant the world to them. I don’t think she saw her son as an accessory at all. Who am I to get upset when people find an excuse to throw a party? There are some people who see their children as accessories but throwing an extra party isn’t the measure of that.

That shit was wild. It went on for so long and impacted so many people. At that point I have to think people were intentionally ignoring it. It ruined so many lives just to say “haha sorry, was a software glitch” when they could have investigated it at any point and definitely should have with the strange uptick in “embezzlement”.

Yea dudes like that either live with a bunch of dudes who accept the constant stale piss smell or dont even realize their partners are constantly cleaning up their mess. Its not like a puddle from people missing. Its collection from being misted. Dude can’t beat physics whether he thinks his piss is magical or not.

Urologists are awful. Even worse for women. I’m always joking that they are mens doctors as they seem not to know what to do with women. Blood in urine? Must be a period…

Anywhere they aren’t animals or who have partners/roommates that make them clean the base of the toilet/walls themselves because piss splashes.

My issue with the hate he gets is he seems to get raked over the coals more than people giving away nothing because he’s “exploiting” people to fund it. Im just so sick of people jumping on even slight improvement over the status quo because they expect perfection from anybody trying to do any good. Theres a reason everything is being enshittified. Theres no reason people benefitting from the system have to even slightly improve it because every idealist who probably hasn’t done shit to improve the world will be there waggling their finger.

Don’t let ideals get in the way of good. While what you say is true, he could literally help no one if he hadn’t followed this business model. He wouldn’t have the cash. His videos bring in more cash which can help more people. Yes he makes money too but its more distasteful to me to be someone like you who prefers less people get help if someone else profits from it than it is to be someone like him who helps more people than you are and also makes money from it.

A bit rich for you to be saying his way is wrong when you probably haven’t ponyed up your own cash to help even a fraction of the people. The world you want to exist does not. Everything has a cost. Id rather people do some good in exchange for that cost than wish everyone did everything for free which incentivizes no one to do anything.

I don’t watch him. His videos don’t really appeal for me but I recognize the good that can be done in such a format.

I have 2 cats. One yells and one does not. The one that yells previously had food insecurity so her behavior is unsurprising. Its how she is. Ive tried waiting to feed her until she stops but its ineffective. She stops after a while but does it again next time. Ive accepted its just how she is and occasionally poke fun at her to lighten myself up. Some are just like that. Id rather my cats bother the hell out me than not because I know they trust and care about me.

The cat who doesn’t yell takes the opposite approach. He rubs up against me and gets extra purry and friendly. He prefers trying to get me to do his bidding with honey instead of vinegar.

Keep at arms length. Her unhappiness isn’t your problem and you can’t fix it anyway. Someone who rants about how other people greet them will never be happy. They will always be unhappy if something doesn’t go exactly like they want. Not worth wasting energy trying to please them. Everyone will know how she is from her rants.

I’m not commenting on the journal or the article specifically. My bf used to work with primates in harem groups. His facility put a young male in with a group of females who’s male had passed away. They beat the shit out of him and they had to remove him. They were dumb enough to try again and got the same result and a male who was now afraid of females.

The premise is obviously not wrong across all primates because there are species with female leadership such as bonobos. I think even in male dominanted societies females could potentially gain power by banding together (they are often close relatives) against a male. I could see other males using that as an opportunity to move in. While the males are larger and more aggressive. Most primate groups have a single male with several females. They may not be as strong but they have numbers. The biggest issue is their baby. Males are the biggest danger to babies, even their own. They also have reason not to oust males because a new male often kills all the babies.

This may not be the study to provide evidence for this due to some issues but its still an interesting topic to think about.
