>>2155506What? I mean, cool but you can't just leave your parents' house and find an affordable home right at the corner, specially a whole ass house, maybe an apartment if you're lucky.
Plus I'm asking in the stupid questions thread, so of course I don't know how any of this shit works.
So okay, the houses are owned by the people, no one has secondary homes, great, then the unoccupied houses are just given away? Destroyed to keep the land completely free until reclaimed by someone? The government owns the land/the houses and it decides who gets a new home and who has to suck it up? Is it a company that owns the land/houses? Then isn't the company a landlord? Is it okay if it's a company or the government that owns the lands?
Like, I don't get how it works at all.

>>2155524You're right, and I'm sorry, I thought you were being sarcastic with me which was why my response was rude.
So before huge companies, billionaires, and flippers started buying up all of the single family homes on the market, houses used to be way cheaper. So if it was illegal to be a landlord, then the number of houses would be much greater than it currently is. And since when supply is greater than demand, the price of stuff goes down, the cost of houses would go down. For example, two minimum wage earners (if they were smart with their money), used to be able to afford a single family starter home about an hour outside the city.
However, because people have realized that everyone needs some place to live, and that the population is only going up, they realized that houses could be hoarded and then sold back to the population at vastly inflated prices, leading to these huge companies that profit off of being landlords and all these small time landlords who do the exact same thing, but on a minuscule level.

I have a shirt in this color and I'm wondering if dying it an olive green would work or would blue dye be strong enough to turn it navy? Would the blue dye just mix with the current color and create olive green? It's 100% cotton gauze that I'm going for either navy or olive as a result and am unsure which color to buy. I just don't want to try full navy only for it to fail and end up with a super dark green rather than olive.

>>2155764Just my experience, but it sucks ass. I have sort of 2 immediate families though. One was my step mom and half-siblings and dad, the other is my dad, my biological mom, and my full siblings. The former was better because they were all older than me and I was the youngest so I was spoiled a lot kek, and overall they were very nice and polite and fun to be around, until my dad and step-mom divorced and my biological mom and dad got together again and I got younger siblings. My mom made me take care of them and babysit them, and I couldn't do or ask for anything without them being involved somehow, so it's either we all do and get the same stuff or none of us does, if I'm the only one doing or getting something they'll cry and screech and I get prevented from doing anything or my stuff will get confiscated and given to one of them. They're also very disrespectful to me and used to beat me up when I was younger because I was smaller size wise than all of them (2 boys and 1 girl) and whenever they made any mistake I was blamed for it and beaten up for it and they get off scots free. Now we're all older and things aren't that bad but we don't have enough rooms in the house, so me and my sister share one room, and my 2 brothers share one room. Because of our different lives styles, a lot of fights arised from this, specifically because of different sleep schedules and turning the AC and/or lights on/off. There's also a lack of privacy because of this and it just gets so awkward, you're always embarrassed by the fact your sibling might see what you're doing on your phone/laptop when you do nerdy weeby shit they're not into, can't dance in your room in peace because they'll give you looks, can't exercise either because there isn't enough space or again, they'll give you looks and poke fun at you. My 2 brothers had a bit of a falling off regarding their room, so now the younger one insists on sleeping on the sofas of the guest rooms and refuses to go back to his bedroom, and we had to change the sofas since he's very fat and filthy and made the sofa cave in underneath him and it's filled with ants to the brim because he always eats on it, the fabric also got really dark. But even after changing it, he still does the same stuff and doesn't care at all. My parents can't afford moving to a new house with new rooms though, but my dad has like 3 rooms all to himself and I think one of my brothers should just go there and the other stays in the bedroom but they refuse to do that. My sister also wants me gone from the room and suggests I go sleep in the attic/storage room upstairs or get married and fuck off from the house all together. Bathrooms are another issue with a big family, we have 3, one for my dad only, 1 for my mom by her master bedroom (my parents don't share the same bedroom because of life style differences) and 1 between us siblings rooms. My brothers are filthy and piss everywhere and don't clean after them, they even piss on the bathtub sometimes, so I use my mom's bathroom mostly. Taking a showe can also be a pain especially if everyone wants to take a shower on the same day, and you'll have to wait for your turn and deal with someone else's filth after they leave the shower. When they were kids, they broke the toilet seat lid, the rode used to hang towels on, and the rack for handsoap, so the bathrooms are a bit of a mess and never got fixed for some reason. Even food is hell to deal with, I personally eat anything as long as it's healthy and balanced, though my mom's cooking isn't that good it's ok when I'm too busy to cook for myself, but my siblings are probably autistic or something because if it isn't greasy deep fried shit they don't want to eat it, and my dad prefers the blandest most disgusting foods possible, and my mom usually cooks a meal for him and then cooks for my siblings whatever they want and I'm always the one left out without any food to eat, so I end up cooking for myself and even buying my own groceries to have something to eat, and I have to hide it all so they don't eat it. When all of us finally agree on a meal, mom gives the biggest portion to my dad, and leave 1 bowel/plate for the rest of us to eat off or 1 for each 2, and it's never enough or nutritional at all. My 2 brothers are fatsos and eat way more than me and my sister, and I can eat an entire bowl/plate on my own, but mom refuses to understand this and increase the portions, then they come to her an hour after dinner/lunch like "we're hungry", so I just stopped having meals with them mostly unless it's takeout and I can control the amount of food so I won't be starving anf malnourished.
For the loneliness part, siblings are only fun to hang out when you're a kid and play together, once all of you grow up and become independent, you sort of become strangers to each other because of your different interests and personalities clashing at times, so each of us hang out with our friends from school/uni mostly, but we do chat and play board games in the rare occasions when we're bored enough to do that. I can't say I ever opened up or shared my feelings with my siblings, because I know they'll just laugh it off or tell my parents which could get awkward at best or get me in trouble at worst. But credit where credit is due, my 2 youngest siblings (youngest sister and youngest brother) came in a clutch when I got sick, they made me tea, cut me some apple slices, gave me blankets to stay warm, got me medicine, helped me to the bathroom when I had to throw up, and told my mom I'm sick so she'll get me to the hospital, while my younger brother who is older than them was like "lol you deserve it" and only drove me to the hospital because mom told him.
TLDR; having a big family sucks ass, but there are rare silver linings sometimes.

>>2155764Idt it's the size of a family that really matters, but quality. My extended family is pure shit and pretty much celebrated the death of their non-
abusive mother. I have 2 older brothers, one used to hit me even when I hit back, both exposed me to their porn search histories and what 'rape porn' was. My parents have treated me uniquely bizarrely as well.
I think the peak realistic ideal is 2 parents who both work sane jobs and 1-2 semi-normal-enough siblings max (siblings can be substituted with pets). I did have several friends whose families were so normal, it re-ignited my jealousy of those Disney channel tv show families kek. But even then, I ended up not liking those friends after they turned out to be kind of stupid sheeple who hang onto celeb gossip and believe their tiktok fyp.
It could be cope, but I think having some unhappiness in the family makes you less prone to getting sucked into stupid bullshit as long as you hang on tight and make yourself well-adjusted-ish in time.

>>2156707IDK if you live in country where marihuana is legal, but if so, there are certain isolates of a cannabinoid called CBG (cannabigerol) that will provide a mood boost and calm anxiety. It won't give you a psychoactive high but it will give you a mild sense of euphoria. There was a time in my life when I heavily relied on marihuana to stave away anxieties and depression, but over time I realized that it was doing me more harm than not to be reliant on a substance for my well-being. I think marihuana is good for use every now and again, like when you're really at the end of the rope, but if you use it every day over time you will develop more and more tolerance to it so you will have to use more and more (and spend more and more). I realized that when I was using marihuana, I wasn't actually working
through my problems, I was just getting high to
forget about my problems. And eventually you get tired of just forgetting and you want to solve it, or at least I did anyway.

>>2156773It is heavily exaggerated by racists who use women as an excuse to be racist and retarded. They pretend to care about it while turning around and crying about the declining birth rates and playing devils advocate about taking away women’s rights. Meanwhile most women are raped and killed by their own mentally ill, unstable retard moids who are very much white and addicted to drugs or alcohol, or their creepy uncles and too-old boyfriends when they are young.
I’m no fan of Islam or any major religion but as someone who actually lives in a country with a lot of immigrants I hate this narrative that things used to be better before they came. They were the same just maybe a little cleaner in some places because less poor people lived there. Local men could sexually harass women at work as much as they wanted in the 90s and a woman could get fired if she got pregnant but somehow that is okay because those men were born here?
Immigration brings men AND women AND children from other places, and some of them end up assimilating while others do not, some are crazy and others are not. That’s it. I’ve been harassed by way more middle aged creeps addicted to subutex and booze than immigrants, personally.

>>2156922>Meanwhile most women are raped and killed by their own mentally ill, unstable retard moids who are very much white and addicted to drugs or alcohol, or their creepy uncles and too-old boyfriends when they are young.You also forgot to mention that female immigrants and European women who aren't immigrants but aren't natives/white either get harassed by these white guys more often than the average women despite not causing any disturbance compared to men, just because these white supremacists are insanely racist and wouldn't dare do that against healthy looking men they assume are immigrant. My city is known for being full of white supremacists in specific neighborhoods, they like to target people they perceive as immigrants and/or muslims, and while I'm an ex muslim and always lived in that city as soon as I was born I'd rather not have to deal with them, I don't want to end up in a hospital. You're told to assimilate into the local culture and when you do, sometimes more than the natives from the past 20 generations they still nitpick everything and try to be racist anyway at best, or you're still harassed or assaulted at some point.
tldr; it goes both ways. It's just like you said, local men are trash too, they just get away with it, especially if their targets aren't white and/or are women, in that case it can even be encouraged and overlooked by the authorities. Some anons talked about Germany but I'm not German.

nonnies i have to pass a tech literacy test for a job i'm applying for but i have no idea what that entails. i'm kind of illiterate to be completely honest but i need this job. the initial application form mentioned things about pc building like CPUs and what they're used for etc… what should i know and familiarize with? i have until september to start the test, which is just one of like 4 or 5 things i need to pass. i've already pulled up some similar sounding tests online (they don't look too related tbh but they'll do for now and besides what do i know) but i'm hoping someone with experience can give me some better advice.

>>2157665The same way you get them to care about one. Give them a “save the cat” moment (and read the book while you’re at it). Basically even asshole characters can be made endearing or interesting by giving them a moment of humanity (like saving a cat from a tree as a throwaway example). Also the relationships
between the characters should keep the readers interested.
No. 2157682
>>2157665It's like what the other anon said, but remember that readers, or the audience in general, will be more interested in not just 3, but also it's multiples. I.e., it's easy to make people care about 3, 6, or even 9 characters. If you watch a lot of sitcoms or dramas for example, usually they'll have either 3 main characters
or 6.

>>2157915Basically, it's a sort of optical illusion where it looks as though mercury's orbit has been reversed. So it looks as though it's going backwards instead of forwards.
Mercury is associated with communication, so when it enters retrograde, usually there are issues with interpersonal communication like increased frequency of arguments, misunderstandings, and petty spats. It's usually a time when friends fight, and couples' break up.

It's like you're treating her like your child, which isn't a good sign when it comes to friendships.

am i the only one who feels sad when i find out old high school classmates are now single moms? i'm 24 and so many female former classmates who are now 21-25 are single moms, some even have 2 or 3 kids. i feel sorry for them, but not in a judgemental way, more like "you had your whole life ahead of you, you could have been so much more". they won't have had time to consider if motherhood, especiacially single motherhood which is so hard, is the life they truly want yet (many of them got pregnant at 16-19), and now it doesn't matter what they want because their kids come first. the way it's treated as so normal too, most of them bond over having crappy babydaddies, day drinking/wine mom stuff, leaving the kids with their own parents so they can go party, date, and socialize like a normal early 20-something, etc
what is this and why is it a thing? do these girls not have further ambitions for themselves? do they just suppress their real dreams and seethe? is it a low self esteem thing? am i just too autistic and having too much empathy for women?
is this even a thing that happens outside of "trash containment towns"? it seems to be common among both "white trash" , "rez kids", and "ghetto hoodrat" people, but my sample size is just my own town, oshawa canada which is NOTORIOUSLY trashy and has the worst people of all races, so I wonder if that's just a "here" thing or if it's a "thing" thing.

>>2159906Men naturally want to provide for their woman when they are in love, forcing him to go 50/50 unbalances the relationship and feminizes him. Non-mooch men get insecure if their woman makes more money than him. Having his gf insist to pay for things and drive him around is a decent man's worst nightmare. Same with the woman proposing to the man, giving flowers, etc.
I agree that the feminine role is underestimated, there is a large mental load women carry and someone else said it better but just being around us is uplifting, our time is invaluable. Being with a woman literally makes a man's life better in all respects there is a reason they live longer partnered to us

>>2160297You probably don't look as bad as you think nona. 99% of makeup is knowing what looks good on your specific face.
When I was a teen I got "professional" makeup done one time (gay moid working at a makeup store) and I looked so fucking ugly with it. The foundation shade was off so I had a yellow-orange undertone that made me look sick (because being tan was trendy and I'm pale af), all colors he used clashed with my natural colors. He did an intense eyeliner that just shrunk my eyes so I looked like a mole, the contouring looked like streaks of dirt on my face… he did the techniques right, it just didn't suit my face shape at all. I already have a narrow face and high nose bridge, contouring my face just make me look boney and emaciated lmao
When I do my own natural makeup, I look the same but less tired, with clearer skin and friendlier eyes. Minimal makeup is where it's at if you actually wanna look good.

>>215990650/50 sounds unfair and illogical. I fucking hate some chores, and some I genuinely enjoy doing. My bf is doing all the heavy lifting work because he's stronger than me as a male, I ain't taking 50% of that just for some stupid idea that it makes us "equal". While I'm sure women's mental load is undervalued that is something I actually naturally enjoy doing, so it doesn't feel like work to me to take care of people while my bf is a male and therefore naturally a bit retarded in that area.
Also if a man earns like twice the money and still makes his wife's pay 50% of everything he's just being cheap. At that point it's your collective money and he should invest in the home and relationship

IDK why there’s this crossover but there just is. So it’s less of a question of, “why do troons do x” and more of a question of, “why do people who do x tend to also be the kinds of people who troon out”.

>>2163912Yes, it's normal for fake jewellery to wear down over time and become ruined just by everyday wear. Fake jewellery is a money sink, because even though it's cheaper than real jewellery, it has a limited shelf-life so you'll need to buy more and more over time. Real jewellery, made with real materials, will last a lifetime if maintained. You're better off saving up a bit of money and investing in a nice piece of real jewellery for yourself. There are a lot of economic options now for jewellery, and there are a lot more accessible stores now compared to the 2000s. Besides shopping at a budget store, you could also consider using cheaper, but still beautiful, materials. Sterling silver is a great option for the budget-conscious shopper, it's more economic than gold but it's still gorgeous and durable. Another option would be looking for less expensive gemstones, like precious coral, moonstone, freshwater pearls, jade, or turquoise. These are usually a lot more affordable when compared to more precious gems like sapphires, diamonds, or emeralds.

An apartment in a sky scraper kind of apartment complex where she has access to the roof and decorates as a spot she sits in with friends, or a house that is a villa in a suburban gated community for the neighborhood sense of community and attended the church for social gatherings with a backyard or balcony with a nice view, or what other options?

if i tell a therapist i really want to hurt myself and others(soem scrotes who hurt me) will they call the police on me or do they understand its mostly venting in hopes of getting help? I really want to go to a therapist to help me with my self harm and anger issues. The latter steem from being sexually assaulted, i tend to cope by making art and fantasizing about killing my assaulter which i know its unhealthy so thats something i want to fix too.

Would you think it's a gigantic red flag if you were dating a woman and you found out she didn't have any friends? I'm just not really the type of person to keep up friendships, especially not irl ones. I get along with my coworkers and occasionally have drinks with them after work and all that, but I don't ever talk to them outside of work, and I don't really want to. I'm pretty normal otherwise, but I'm worried it will fuck up my dating chances if it becomes apparent I don't ever hang out with any friends

>>2164761Some grease, like bacon grease for example, can be reused. Frying oil can also be cleaned and reused. Poor people in general tend to try to be frugal and avoid food waste if possible. Well, maybe not dumb ones, but it's a frugal thing.
Though this seems to conflict a lot with the rest of your post; someone who leaves behind there things and lives in a messy home is probably less concerned with being resourceful.
In that case, they probably are just too lazy to throw away their grease cans.

>>2165025Basically after 9/11, American culture shifted towards conservatism after coming back from the huge swing to liberalism during the 60s. There was a war, the economy was getting worse, and when that happens the society responds in a way that puts more value on masculinity, rejection of beauty, and rejection of Self. Scrotes were needed in wars, and they were needed to do shit labour jobs, so buzzcuts became popular, men's fashion became taboo, and scrotes became more retarded, more violent, and more segregated. The counter-culture of the 60s had a deep grip on our society then, and it continued through the the 70s and 80s. As the economic climate worsened in the 90s, and after the conservative political victories post 9/11, the counter-culture slowly died down and the mainstream culture of pre-60s America returned as the dominant societal undercurrent. That's why we're seeing a lot of people today taking issue with things we figured out a long time ago, things like: abortion rights; interracial marriages; same-sex relationships; etc.; because those were all things that went against traditional mainstream American culture in the 40s and 50s.
Basically, from the late 60s to the late 90s, the liberal counter-culture produced a unique sociocultural undercurrent in our society that dominated the former undercurrent, traditional American conservative culture. The counter-culture was a reaction to the limitations of the culture. Since the counter-culture is no longer as present, or as influential, in our society, the original culture will soon dominate the society again.

I slept with my boyfriend 2 days before I was supposed to get my period. We used protection (thicker condoms because paranoia) and we even changed the condom after he finished and we went for another round. Essentially we did everything by the book. Yet my period is the latest it's been in a year (by 5 days), and I'm freaking out a little bit because my period is usually pretty regular.
I know there's always a risk and the only way to know for sure is to practice abstinence yadda-yadda but is it even possible to be pregnant despite being hyperaware? Can sex delay my period (we haven't had sex in over half a year by this point because of long distance) Also is it too early to take a test?

>>2165827>>2165832Men wearing heels came about from heeled equestrian boots. They were associated with the military and equestrianism from Persia. Prior to the 17th century there was the chopine worn exclusively by women. Upper class women were meant to display a family’s wealth in their clothing, the chopine provided the opportunity by not only being elaborately decorated but by also requiring more yardage for a woman’s dress to cover the shoe. In addition the shoes were so cumbersome to mobility that women needed servants to lean on just to get around. So heeled shoes in men were associated with the military and other manly endeavors whereas in women it was associated with a display of wealth and the lifestyle needed to support them.

No. 2169466
>>2169428>As a result of the effects of these different evolutionary forces, while a number of very rare (and usually very young) alleles may be geographically localized, the majority of common genetic variants are not private to a particular continent, and are often shared across multiple regions (The 1000 Genomes Project Consortium 2015). This is because, in contrast with dogs, no modern human populations have ever been completely reproductively isolated over many generations.>When differences in generation time between the two species are taken into account [~ 20 years for humans = 10,000 generations over 200,000 years; ~ 4.5 years for wolves (Mech et al. 2016) = ~ 9000 generations over 40,00 years], it would seem that there has been just as much or more time for substructure to evolve in our own species as has evolved in dogs. That it did not suggests that the strict artificial selection imposed on dogs by humans through selective breeding has had a profound effect on within- and among-breed levels of dog genetic diversity. In contrast, while geographic, cultural, or linguistic features may slow or limit gene flow between human groups, these forces have not resulted in the high levels of genetic differentiation that resulted from artificial selection for distinct and distinguishable breeds of dogs. In accordance with their release from strict selective breeding and artificial selection, village dogs show significantly more genetic diversity and higher heterozygosity than breed dogs (Boyko et al. 2009).As we saw in the previous section, the majority of genetic variation is shared across human populations.
>In terms of stature, human populations vary around the world, and height differs within and among the five races defined by the 2010 U.S. Census. Data from the Centers for Disease Control (Fryar et al. 2016) show differences in the average height of individuals by self-identified racial category, but a much greater amount of overlap. The median white man (of the, on average, tallest racial group among U.S. men) is 177.1 cm tall (69.7 in.) while the shortest group on average, Asian men, are 170.3 cm tall (67.0 in.)—a difference of approximately 3 in., or less than 0.2 standard deviations in height among U.S. men. The distribution of variation in stature within human populations is broad and very different from that seen in dog breeds. The height distributions of men in the U.S. overlap such that approximately 15% of Asian men are taller than the median white man. Both groups overlap even more substantially with black men. (It is also worth noting that the difference in median height between men and women of a single U.S. census group is greater than that between men of any two U.S. census groupings, and the same is true between women.) Consider the tallest (Manute Bol at 231 cm or 91 in.) and the shortest (Muggsy Bogues at 160 cm or 63 in.) players in the history of the NBA. While they represent extremes of the human male height distribution, Bol is only 1.44 times taller than Bogues.In contrast, dog breed differences in stature are far greater than what is observed across U.S. census divisions of humans. The median shoulder height in Great Danes (76 cm, 30 in.) is four times greater than in Pekingese (19 cm, 7.5 in.; Stone et al. 2016). When scaled to human height, this would be equivalent to a difference of 470.7 cm (185.3 in.) or about the difference between an average human and a two-story building. Years of breeding to divergent standards combined with low genetic diversity has resulted in limited and non-overlapping height variation for many breeds (Sutter et al. 2008). Even within dogs in the middle third of the height distribution, like Italian Greyhounds, their top 5% for height does not overlap with the shortest 5% of Golden Retrievers.
>Furthermore, the accumulation of new genetic mutations, random fluctuations in trait and genetic variant frequencies due to genetic drift, and the introduction of new alleles into populations via gene flow all dilute natural selection’s ability to drive large differences in phenotypes or genotypes between populations. As a result, human populations are genetically very similar to one another with overlapping phenotypes. In contrast, modern purebred dogs exist almost entirely due to artificial selection; their mating is controlled by humans to produce offspring with desired traits. To do this, animals with rare genetic mutations, like those with the dwarf variant of IGF1, are bred together for several generations, acting against the natural accumulation of genetic variation (i.e. evolution by anything other than artificial selection) within the breed.Dog breeds seem to be so distinct from one another in many conspicuous traits because, relative to human groups, they are. This is true in terms of the extreme differences in physical traits seen between dog breeds, whereas U.S. census groupings overlap in terms of all physical traits, and it is also true with regard to the underlying differences in the genetic architecture that determines these traits.
>The Portuguese Water Dog demonstrates how entire AKC dog breeds are painted with personalities, like “strength, spirit, and soundness,” that individual humans do not even necessarily share with their immediate family members. Yet, dog breeding standards influence assumptions about hard-wired behavior characterizing and differentiating human groups. The jump from clustered physical variation to the assertion of superior and inferior, biologically-based behavioral variation at the group level is the crux of the matter. It is why Haldane’s question is so much more than an academic curiosity and why the pop culture analogy equating race with breed demands refutation.Arguments in support of the biological basis or “reality” of race are often thinly veiled arguments for a significantly genetic basis behind perceived behavioral differences between races (Sussman 2014). Though it is decades old, the “logic” of this argument or line of thinking, particularly when it relies on the dog breed analogy, is easily gleaned from social media: If one can tell a Dalmatian from a Mastiff and one can tell a person of one race from another race just by looking at them, and if behavior is bred into dogs to a degree that distinguishes breeds too, then genetically-based behavior also distinguishes human races and, thus, a person’s intelligence or criminality (etc.) can be predicted by their ancestry.
No. 2169469
>>2169466>From this mistaken perspective, the notion of race as a social construct is seen as absurd and so is down-playing the biological basis for race, because to do so is to be willfully stupid, ignorantly anti-science, or brainwashed by a politically correct denial of reality. (Hence, the “race realists” who talk of taking the “red pill,” an allusion to the film The Matrix where a person frees himself from living a false reality.) Consequences of that false framework include support for eugenics (past, present, and future), racial segregation of schools, justifying status quo institutional oppression, white nationalism, white supremacy, other forms of racism, and defunding social, environmental, economic, and health programs that counter racism’s effects.>First of all, as we have shown, the dog breed-human race analogy is not biologically sound—it assumes race as a natural biological category of humans, a priori. Second and inextricably related, the analogy denies sociocultural context, both past and present. What is more, it includes unquestioned and largely unfounded assumptions about genetically-determined and predictable human behavior.>Scientists are still discovering whether and how dog behaviors are breed-specific and, when they are, how heritable they are. To be clear, a trait’s heritability is an estimation of how much of its variation in a population is determined by genetic variation in that population; heritability is not synonymous with its determination or predictability in an individual based on that individual’s DNA. There is much known but also much more to learn about what else influences behavioral variation among dogs like weaning age, diet, and other conditions during development. A recent meta-analysis of the heritability of dog behavior concluded that not only are breed standards poorly aligned with the actual behaviors of the breeds they aim to define, but they describe behaviors with little genetic component in the first place (Hradecka et al. 2015). While dog behavior does develop out of inherited (as well as environmental) influences, “breed standards are largely unsubstantiated, for most breeds that have been studied” (Mehrkam and Wynne 2014).>Variation in human behavior has its roots in both complex genetic and non-genetic factors. Claims that such factors, or their interactions, map neatly onto geographically and socially constructed human groups and can be used to predict behavioral traits associated with such groups, or of an individual member of a group, are not scientifically supported. As Sussman (2014) said about the one behavioral trait that is usually the focus of these discussions, “The idea of a unitary purely genetically based intelligence and of biologically distinct races among humans is as outdated scientifically as the ideas that the earth is flat or that it was created in 4004 B.C.” (p. 305)>Finally, Darwin’s scenario for the evolution of human intelligence in Descent of Man (1871) pitted human groups against one another, with natural selection ratcheting up intelligence in the dominant groups through time. Hierarchical ranking of human races is also inherently competitive, which is just one reason why outdated and overly simplistic conceptions of evolutionary biology have historically paired with racism, and still do. Within this racist framework, hindsight paints the dominant group as the more genetically intelligent and naturally selected one, justifying its dominance with perceived biological superiority. While it is true that natural selection occurs differently in different lineages and populations, it is no longer dogma (> 150 years since Darwin) that natural selection causes divergence due to competition between populations. In many cases, perpetual mutation and drift are enough to explain evolutionary divergence (Hedges et al. 2015).>“Race” has evolved into a concept that supersedes biology and therefore it cannot also apply as a strictly biological concept. After a racist history of science and a racist history of knowledge production generally, we know that “race” does not exist without racism. As McLean (2019) has described it, there are “co-constructive relationships between historically contingent political processes and the biology of humans.” “Race” is, in its essence, about human bias and always has been. If, hypothetically, race was ever to succeed as a wholly objective and neutral biological concept for humans, it lost its chance because so much racist science led us to this socially constructed state of “race” today. About that racist science Zack (2010) writes, “There is a self-revised scientific history of ideas of race, but that is not the same thing as a scientific foundation. The need for such a foundation or some intellectual justification for the enslavement of Africans and the oppression and exploitation of indigenous peoples during the period of European colonization and its subsequent racisms—without question motivated belief in human races [as real and important, biologically differentiated types of humans].” (p. 880)Source: (

>>2169506>how do you not feel guilty and anxious constantly?Because I only steal from Walmart or people who wrong me. And I do it carefully enough that I'm confident I won't be caught. And if I am caught, I'm confident that a lawyer can get me off due to the small amount I've stolen.
>Do you get used to it?You seem to have a lot of anxiety related to it. I would not recommend that you shoplift because security guards can sniff out suspicious behavior and will be watching you from the moment you go into the store.
>are you just poor and want the stuff and can't pay?Yes, so I steal to stretch my budget further. So I'll steal a bottle of gummy vitamins, or else I'll steal a pack of the nicer menstrual pads because the bleached ones poison me and give me cramps. And with my normal budget I couldn't justify those purchases, but with stealing I can get those and still afford my electricity bill.
>girl who would brag about stealing clothes She's an idiot. Don't brag, that's how you get caught. You never know who's going to be a narc. And don't get greedy, steal only a little each time and space it out between actual purchases. And never steal from Target, they use facial tracking and will wait until you've stolen enough for it to be a felony before sending the police to your house.

>>2169871Pollsters are atrocious since trump came onto the field. A lot of them poll online and online selects for a certain demographic and depending on where the polls appear (I’m thinking things like amazons mturk) that’s also another gate that selects for certain groups of people (I imagine it probably leans liberal and independent). There’s also a lot of people that won’t admit they’re going to vote for trump, so don’t fall for the polls saying it’s close. It’s not.
People get complacent when they think candidates are neck and neck but they aren’t close at all and kamalas camp needs to play it like that if they want to pull ahead.

In those cases, they're like, the ones that the god of the religion said would be the main followers, like, if you live in a building with blue walls and you only want blue birds, then you will have them at the prettiest blue room, meanwhile those other birds of other colors are allowed to enter the building, and they can even go into the room with the blue birds but they're not treated specially in that building because they're not blue, unlike the blue birds that get special treatments.

>>2170879So many teachers are in arrested development for whatever reason, and I'm certain it's the reason why some female teachers have sex with like 13 year old scrotes. They are arrested mentally and most likely have been shafted by men, most likely their fathers, their entire life. Probably bullied or made fun of in middle-high school. So when they become teachers they do act as secondary caregivers to these kids, you are dealing with a LOT of neglected children every single day. They have low self esteem and they think that young girls are TOO dramatic and retarded because they probably received no care in their shitty developmental years so why should the girls they take care of and teach? A girl having a bad home life or being targeted by her pornsick moid classmates is normal! Why should she act out? Whereas a moid getting neglected at home is very, very sad because moids are supposed to be put above women and girls!

I would recommend gifting a pillow that's not too expensive, in my country you can find pillows for 10 dollars and they're really nice, it's something unexpected and really useful, it's funny too but somehow not too personal.

Okay I saw that footage of the girl killing her mom over a vape, and now I just read into a story of a boy killing his mom over a VR headset. Serious question, are children more or less violent than previous generations? Did millenials love doing mass kills and parent-slaughtering when they were kids or teenagers? I get that there's instances like Columbine, but with how zoomer and gen alpha kids/teens seem to get in their feelings, it's like too many of them are pumping lead and jabbing knives every other week.

I feel like if another woman asked me if this was sexual abuse I would say yes without hesitation but because it’s me I’m unsure. When I was about 5 I wandered into the room my mom and step dad were staying (we were transient at the time and were staying with his parents) for reasons I don’t remember, I probably wanted water or had a bad dream or something. Anyway my step dad grabbed me and kissed me with tongue and held me in place for probably 30 seconds until my mom got up, grabbed me, and threw me out of the room. She later said to never go around him when he’s asleep because he grabbed people in his sleep. He was physically abusive but not sexually aside from that, and on drugs and generally psychopathic and whatever. Lately I’ve been looking back and thinking that that might have been a bigger deal than I made it my whole life. Was that SA? I sort of wrote it off my whole life because the physical abuse was worse but now that I’m older all I know is that if someone did that to my daughter I would ruin them.

This is a little different but I was “molested” as a child by another older girl and I really didn’t and still don’t see it as some huge life changing thing but have been made to feel like I should see it that way. If he was genuinely asleep some people really do have fucked up sleep behavior issues. I tried to wake my mom up in the middle of the night one time because my sister was sick at a sleepover and wanted to come home and she punched then started wildly flailing at me until I woke her up.
There’s really no benefit to trying to see it as a big deal if you don’t genuinely feel traumatized by it imo. The whole metoo movement screwed with me a bit because I felt like I was somehow wrong for not feeling like getting diddled as a child then raped as a young adult was the end of the world.

>>2172906>Euroanons where the age of consent is lower, is it really different there?It's 15 in my country. It's not seen as the kid becoming legal to adults, it's seen as the age from which you as the kid is allowed to have sex. So when they are 14 kids think they are legally not allowed to have sex, even with each other. Kids don't reeeally care, but it's still something everyone is kind of aware of.
Despite the low age I have still basically never seen grown men go for teens, and the very few times I've seen it was the clearly mentally unstable weirdo teen girls who did sex work online before it was cool and suicide baited on the daily who would seek out drugs, older men to sleep with and self harm. They'd typically lie about their age to say they're older too. From the adult side I only ever see it from terminally online weeby pedo adults who defend loli-content, waiting for girls to become legal isn't a thing like it seems to be with 18 year olds in other countries. It's seen as highly suspicious if an adult man dates a 18-19 year old, even though it's legal everyone knows it's predatory. But again, I have seen it in terminally online weeb circles that is highly adapted to american woke culture. So there are likely other pockets like that hidden from view.
When I was 14-15 my female peers thought dating someone who was 18 was kinda gross simply because they're so anciently old. And to the vast majority of 18 year old guys dating a 14-15 year old girl is seen as dating a literal child. Heck I've seen 22 year old guys being made fun of by their guy friends for dating an 18 year old girl, them being called pedos for dating someone so much younger than them.
I'm sure the deranged adults (mostly men of course) who want to date 15 year olds exist but they're really not socially accepted at all.

Do you enjoy your friends' company? Do you feel good around them? Do they treat you with respect? Do you think that this friendship is worth keeping? If yes, this is a fulfilling friendship. You should also ask the same for romantic relationships and also additional ones: do they listen to you? Do you feel comfortable sharing anxieties? Do they take your concerns seriously and don't brush them off? Can you openly talk about intimacy and any issues you may have? Do you feel like they respect your boundaries and don't try to push them? If so, this is a good indicator of a fulfilling relationship.
I think the most important part to understand is that the feeling of not being fulfilled by your relationships is because your childhood needs were not met. Once that feeling of not being loved or fulfilled kicks in you need to try your best to divorce your sad child feelings from what is happening in reality. You're looking for someone to give you everything you never got at a crucial developmental stage, unfortunately this is impossible now at your age. It's simply just impossible to receive it all from one person, which is why having different friends to connect with is so important, as well as picking up hobbies that genuinely give you joy. You must fulfill you, and that means you must vet the people who come into your life and also understand you are asking for the impossible, which is why building skills and enjoyable hobbies is so important. You must be comfortable with you, and you are ultimately the only person who can give that neglected child what she needs.

How do I crack my sternum? Neither pulling my shoulders back as far as possible, nor pushing them fowards as far as I can does anything.

this is a very stupid question and I wasn't sure if I should ask here or in the artist thread, but as it's so stupid, this might be the right place.
All my life I've been drawing, you wouldn't see me without a sketchbook and a pencil ever. Then I got depressed and just stopped doing anything that I liked for years. My depression is way better now and I want to start drawing again, but I feel like I can't even hold a pencil anymore. How do I get myself going again, how do I stop being afraid and overthinking that shit? Any simple exercises or just a "how do I hold my pencil right" video would be very helpful, I really want to draw again.
