i think it’s important to remember that the erosion of empathy and community in this society has been purposefully part of the christian nationalist project (to erode trust in both other people and government services to make room for the rollback of those services and the rise of authoritarianism)

Men are not constantly being told “you’re bad,” they are constantly being told “LEFT WING SJWS THINK YOU’RE BAD” by conservative propaganda. There’s a huge difference.
I have two sons, and I don't think I've ever seen messaging going "Don't be a boy" or "YOU'RE BAD."
Sure looks like that's in "I heard someone say that they heard..." territory, rather than actual direct experience.
Also worth noting, the main message from manosphere influencers is "YOU'RE BAD."

It's a brutal time for young men, and to be raising one. The primary message they now is get is "YOU'RE BAD" without any meaningful attempt to offer healthy pathways beyond "Don't be a boy."
Absolutely perfect time for right wing monsters to sweep in with shitty answers.

I think what happened is basically that a bunch of consultants misread the rightward swing among Gen Z last election as a permanent vibe shift which is why the weaseliest Dems sprinted to do podcasts with hitlerites instead of waiting three months for trump to fuck everything up like he always does

A thing that I find incredibly interesting is the world is full of people who genuinely believe they have a *right* to be liked and for people to be obsequious towards them. I have seen it from a wide range of people, and it never ceases to amaze me. No one *has* to be your friend!
No. Christians feel persecuted because there is a vast media apparatus telling them that they are persecuted. There is no evidence whatsoever of large-scale discrimination against Christians in this country.
Interesting story that gets to the heart of why many Christians feel persecuted in the U.S.: The secular elite find many of their views abhorrent and uncouth

For a dry rub on meat msg and dried chives are more or less universally delicious. For stews or sauces, oyster sauce. I also think basically anything with dairy can be improved with a little spicy mustard and a pinch of turmeric
What are your default "this needs to taste better" spices and sauces? The spice bottles and condiments and toppings you ALWAYS keep around because they work for almost every meal, they're just too good? The things you end up adding even when the meal doesn't need it because "oh that always works"?

It's funny that if Bluesky ever does take off, Jack Dorsey will go down as the undisputed king of microblogging platforms and he will have absolutely no idea what makes any of this good or why anyone uses this. It'd be like if the inventor of the dishwasher was a dalmatian.

Elon Musk has done so many incompetent and embarrassing things that even some of the best ones have been forgotten, like when he made a big show of reinstating Trump's Twitter account and then Trump just ignored it

weird take but i think "getting off social media" is a bad thing if you don't have, like, irl places to go. at least you're sort of socializing and interacting here, instead of watching hours of youtube videos of unfunny dudes picking apart advertisements
