At least youre not a  350 pound virgin small dick cuck with a minimum wage dead end job who thinks about suicide every day. Give yourself to porn and prostitutes or learn to not give a fuck. Youre still young. If you care so much about the baldness, get fit.

I am the only person on this entire forum who has called this correctly from beginning to end. I will not give up too much PI to tell you exactly how I've known all this all along, but read my posts in the brexit thread over the last 3-5 months. I know exactly what he's trying to do because I've spoken to the people around him who are sick to their back teeth of the games.

I was there when the shadow EU minister found out he was going on holiday mid referendum. I know exactly what he's up to and I've been telling you all for months and months and months.

I gave up on companionship along time ago. i have too many severe body image issues (and not in a way that can be solved by going to the gym, so please dont hit me with that cliche) to be able to enjoy any sort of intimacy, and I have too much shame and internalized homophobia to be comfortable being in a public relationship with another man, so there's next to no point in dating.

I won't pretend it doesn't get lonely OP, but it does get easier the longer time goes on, so hang in there. Fantasy and Escapism helps quite a bit, and its definitely possible to eke out a life worth living even if you are alone, you just need to find some healthy coping mechanisms for when things get dark.

Your not alone, I gave up in middle school. I remember I had a friend that was all depressed in middle school because he never had a girl friend and yet here I am at 26 with no relationship ever with a girl. He fell into peer pressure I guess.

Quote from: killdatninja, post: 16944171, member: 8756
I feel you OP. I've got no confidence, I'm not interesting and have a hard time holding a conversation with women... which makes getting dates/dating difficult.


Keep your head up, do the only thing you can do... self-improvement... and learning from your mistakes. Hope things turn around for you OP.

Quote from: Replicant, post: 16944732, member: 6543
Me too, OP. I’m 40. I’ve dated enough though. I just think some people are better off single.

Quote from: Kain-Nosgoth, post: 16945110, member: 3650
That's where i'm at right now too


I'm 30, i gave up searching or making effort to find someone! I'm still open to it of course, and if by chance (not likely to happen) i meet someone i like, i will try something, but i don't actively search anymore! I will probably be alone and i'm fine with it


Sure it's still frustrating at time, especially when at every family gathering or with friends i'm always the one alone, but it's not that big of a deal in the end, i made peace with it

Quote from: CoyoteSpitfire, post: 16947792, member: 23975
I've given up without really trying at all, so kudos for doing that at least. I deeply envy your drunkenness though.

There's something wrong with the post count or page count.
The first post on page 1000 should be post number 60,000

Edit:  Never mind, it's correct. Post #60,000 will be the first post on page 1,001.

One year and only 60k posts.

I’m sure you’re all not being disingenuous.

"suppressed the thought as best i could" sounds more plausible.

The best part of that thread, however, is still the people trying to find an angle to show their wokeness somehow.

When you're as cute as I am, it's easier just to wait until the girl approaches you.

I like knowing that the girl was the one who saw me and liked me instead of the other way around. I guess i'm just emotionally lazy.

yeah, his receipts are bollocks.
certain people in his party hate him because they think hes stopping them getting into power, which is all theyre interested in as politicians.

and while theres an interesting discussion to be had about ideals vs pragmatism and if a politician who holds fast to ideals that make them unelectable has any value as they will never be able to exert any political power to act on those ideals, most people would still prefer that to someone who has zero ideas or commitments beyond gaining power for the sake of having power.

On one hand it's pretty sad when people don't accept their own lack of effort when it comes to romance. They are missing out on a huge experience in their one life they have.

On the other hand, it's equally sad to follow your dick around your entire life and base all your self-esteem and self-worth around how many times other people are touching it.

So, I hope that all my fellow dudes can find a happy medium.

My current long-term girlfriend is hotter than she should be. Can't explain it.


But yes, the key to getting laid with low self esteem is:

1. Realize women get horny too. Very horny.
2. Fat chicks need love
3. Plenty of girls also have low self-esteem.

If your girl is hot then you need to get outta here with this false modesty man

I used to think I was an uggo until I landed a hot chick who was like "no you just have bad self-esteem you dope"

Most of the incel-ish dudes on ERA who are bemoaning their lack of relationships are probably decent enough looking fellas who are just ugly on the inside.

Nah, Im an uggo.

I ran a little test once. I downloaded Twitter, and put some effort into my profile. That is, I chose actually good photos, not some blurry selfie that looks like it was taken by a microwave. One of them even had an adorable dog in it. I added some cute text too.

Naturally, I swiped on everybody.

Four days later, I had 4 matches. Two were bots. One was a lesbian looking for friends.

This was in NYC.

Also, didnt you say you were sharing pics of your wife with us?

It's better to be bruised on the inside where no-one can see, like an apple. If you're pretty on the outside people might still want you but when they find out you are damaged goods they might not want you anymore, but you still got a chance.

A Japanese idol’s apology over being assaulted has triggered waves of anger towards her management company by people in Japan and around the world.

Not for REE though (that omits that people are outraged against the firm not the girl):

Idol culture needs to die. You can have the artistry without making the fans feel like the own the members of the group.

The fact that the people are outraged for making her apologize and the management company is feeling the heat seems positive for me. :-\

I mean, that whole industry needs to change. And it seems people inside that bubble are realizing this and ‘lol fuck japan’ is getting annoying if this is not acknowledged.

In a video livestream earlier in the week, Yamaguchi alleged that two men entered her home, covered her mouth and tackled her to the ground, before she managed to get away.

The men were arrested, but later freed without any charges.

That's really fucked up.  Good to see her agency getting shit on for making her "apologize."

I feel you OP. I've got no confidence, I'm not interesting and have a hard time holding a conversation with women... which makes getting dates/dating difficult.


Keep your head up, do the only thing you can do... self-improvement... and learning from your mistakes. Hope things turn around for you OP.

Me too, OP. I’m 40. I’ve dated enough though. I just think some people are better off single.

That's where i'm at right now too


I'm 30, i gave up searching or making effort to find someone! I'm still open to it of course, and if by chance (not likely to happen) i meet someone i like, i will try something, but i don't actively search anymore! I will probably be alone and i'm fine with it


Sure it's still frustrating at time, especially when at every family gathering or with friends i'm always the one alone, but it's not that big of a deal in the end, i made peace with it

I've given up without really trying at all, so kudos for doing that at least. I deeply envy your drunkenness though.

I mean, writing characters as such needs to serve a purpose, as does any other writing choice, especially in a story driven game. If you don't really do anything meaningful with behavior like that then it's just crass and potentially comes off as endorsing it. Depictions have consequences. You could make a game where you represent a realistic slave owner in a plantation, but it's just cheap and exploitative if you don't use that to make a point and treat the subject with required gravity. So I don't see "it's realistic" as a valid defense on its own.

 :mindblown

Writing any sort of character doesn't need to serve any purpose other than to tell a story

No one needs to be a clear cut protagonist or antagonist or cautionary tale or reverent or respectful

Let people write what the fuck they want and you can deem it as exploitative as you like, it doesn't even need to be popular or non-controversial, the writer gets to express whatever they want to express because that is the point of any art or entertainment

Fuck

Chris Pratt is that dude who will say the most neutral thing about a conversation because he knows if he's truthful he'll get some serious side eyes.

He thinks by not saying bigoted shit he can cover up his not saying bigoted shit.  He ain't slick, subpar spatula sees him.

Height can be a combination of genetics and environment, yet no one says join a Basketball Team if you want to be 7 Feet tall.

No matter what kind of diet or exercise you take, very few people will ever be as tall as Robert Wadlow.

If Height is assumed to be 80% genetic, then why is Intelligence somehow less? If you believe in evolution, then you must acknowledge the human brain has always been changing
Yet why would that be, if environment played a bigger role than genetics?

I can understand that people are pissed off at Ubisoft, especially since Ubisoft at one point said that they wont force any romance on the player, but that they're calling it rape is just absurd.

Quote
They’ll fix it for real with a rape and then apologize a second time shortly after...
https://www.resetera.com/threads/kotaku-assassins-creed-odyssey-director-says-we-missed-the-mark-with-controversial-dlc.93976/post-16963182

Also instead of apologizing they just need to add a cutscene where Alexios' boyfriend jerks him off and then spits into a vagina. You're welcome Ubi

I finished the DLC last night, and I admit, it was jarring. BUT, if you choose to get this upset about a fictional character, you're kinda a huge loser.

Like, you're trying so hard to deny the signs because you believe a grand conspiracy to bring him down.

Oh no, the unperson Colin Moriarty, the guy who made a tepid joke on #adaywithoutwomen. The horror.

OFFICIAL STAFF COMMUNICATION

This thread is locked as the premise is disingenuous. While Chris Pratt is the subject of this thread, there is also multiple other celebrities who attend this same specific church. The OP, however, chose only to focus on Chris Pratt despite the other celebrities being listed in the article as well.

Additionally, Hillsong, originally founded in Australia, is a megachurch denomination that has a weekly attendance of 100,000 people in 80 churches worldwide. The allegations of sexual abuse are by the founder of Hillsong's father in Australia.

Being upset at Chris Pratt for attending a Hillsong church is equivalent to being upset at a Catholic attending mass in New York City because a Catholic priest in Australia is sexually abusing children.

As a side note, it is important to note that a church denomination's beliefs are not always in step with the beliefs of someone who attends that church or even a specific church within that denomination. People who make sweeping generalization statements about religion (whether churches, mosques, Christians, Jews, etc) will be actioned appropriately now and in the future.

Wow, that's some level-headed modding there SweetNicole.  :jawalrus
