The edge of the observable universe is about 270,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles away.

Yet god exists and cares about this insignificant blue speck of wet dust?

I don’t think I have ever seen a zombie before actually.

You can actually be a manly man without being complete arse. I understand some of the backlash against feminism. Boys are struggling in our school systems. Title 9 is actually used to admit more young men to colleges now, for decades now actually.

I can even understand the popularity of some of the pick up artists who are popular among men who are not quite the “ladies man”. Better yourself, find things that help make you a better person. Get a hobby, work out. Make yourself interesting.

But these right wing pundits are fucking crazy.

I don’t like the term toxic masculinity (edit: if you are trying to better yourself and you say I don’t want to espouse toxic masculinity, I see that as useful (What i mean is that trying to apply it to anyone who offends or upsets you can be problematic.) other than as an idea discussed among academia, but god damn these asshats.

Unfortunately, it kind of is in general.

Rich people are generally assholes

I wonder though if most of the wage growth is in the top 20 % or so, meaning it’s going way up for those on the top and not so much for the lowest paid, regular kiwi lol

Well part of it may be because wages don’t keep up with inflation even when inflation is low.

And even if inflation is going down, prices are still rising. So unless we start deflating back to where wages were before the inflation rise started people aren’t really going to be like. Oh hey, my avocado toast only went up 25 cents this quarter instead of 50 cents
