I don't want to gatekeep but I had no idea you could be "straight" and "demisexual" at the same time. Demisexual are people for whom primary characteristics (such as body) is not important, they are more about the relationship and emotional connection.

I also fail to understand your conversation with your friend. You have sex with him and enjoy it. You are friends, thus, there is some emotional connection. You are demisexual. Are you attracted to him or not? So confusing.

I think it is important to know where you are from. If in EU, I recommend HSN, namely the pea protein powder (or soy protein). From an hypertrophy stand-point, they are as good as whey protein (there are randomized controlled trials showing this). They are also much cheaper and environmentally friendly. Though I never tried unflavored!

I don't think gym goers usually listen to podcasts in the gym. They probably do it outside the gym. But again, they could just as well listen to someone like Peter Attia or Mike Israetel. It doesn't really answer the question: Why is it that gym goers are generally right wing? Maybe they are not and I am just suffering from a selection bias.

Oh. This is one of the reasons I hate the anime culture..

My favorite anime is One Punch Man. I just like the vibe of the character and his depressive outview. I sympathize with Saitama, such a well written character. However, go to the onepunchman subreddit and god damn, most of them are drawing children in minimal clothes. What the fuck is wrong with everyone.

Really? Cryptography people are generally right wing? I did not expect that!

Oh ya.. Gym goers are notoriously right wing.. It is annoying.

Even in Europe (where I am from), most gym goers are people who would have voted for Trump. I think it might be due to the fact they are generally younger? I don't know. I do know that it is annoying trying to befriend someone and then you find out they are right wing. God damn.

You can do so by just regularly commenting and/or posting, but also by creating new communities and bringing some activity to inactive ones!

I have an alternative proposition:

As a society, we should all agree that car culture is not good. It is not good for the health of cities, not good for the envinronment, not good for anything really. Let's get as far away from cars as possible and start improving public transport and other ways of moving. One thing I would love to see is more shade in cities, from trees. Way way way more trees.

You could have made a better choice, I suppose. And some authors/editors do deserve the money.

Pirating is not necessarily resisting. Are you taking money from authors who really really need it? Or are you taking money from rich CEOs who are worsening the environment, ruining future generations, slaving, etc?

resist.

Stop buying whatever it is that Amazon/Meta/Google/Etc sell. They will not stand for you. They will not respect you.

At some points, it may seem like they changed and that they are now good. They are not. They will never be. Resist them.
