We have several friends and acquaintances where the woman is the primary bread winner in the family. These are interesting dynamics. Most are not "beautiful" people physically. At least one of the women is very conservative and so is her husband. I think one of the most important things professional women look for is that their man is not intimidated or envious of their success and is comfortable in a nontraditional role. I'm not sure those guys are readily available but nice work if you can get it. Two professional couples are also pretty common and I think often successful based on mutual respect and admiration. They often don't have kids. I'm in this group.
I can definitely see politics affecting attraction however. The US is so far divided by ideology that compatibility would be very difficult to achieve I think you may have dodged a bullet.. I just don't see how a marriage like that really works.
Luckily it’s a rare occurrence in dating.. at least down here in the South.
She’s the first time I’ve ever encountered that.
And I agree that politics are important beyond a hook up. I could never settle down with someone like that and vice-versa.

What in the world happened to this guy?
Out of nowhere he’s talking like Trump on steroids. This is now multiple days of ultra-nationalistic posting.

Gonna be a physical start to the season....revamped D is gonna have an early test for sure.
Joe Marino goes into this, but Ogunjobi with his experience against Baltimore and Hoecht as a guy we could get creative with in a 4-3/5-2 alignment being out isn’t ideal.
But at least if we face them in the playoffs, we’ll have some new wrinkles to throw at them.
That said.. Bosa, Rousseau and a bunch of high draft picks.. we should have enough and this isn’t an overwhelming passing attack for Hairston, should he be the starter.

Hating on Poyer as a Bills fan might be one of the lamest things you can do.

I'm an outsider. Have not lived this but I can think of several ways for a discouraged male to improve things. Many women love to dance. Learn ballroom dancing at a studio and you'll meet many women. There are invariably more women than men at the social dances. Besides that, in lessons you frequently switch partners so that you learn to dance with everyone, up close and personal. I would suggest having a special interest in latin dances, especially salsa and rhumba...Also, join a gym. It will help with appearance, self esteem and is an opportunity to meet women.
I agree that if the u80/20 rule is real, we are in big trouble. Like you said, free flowing bitterness, frustration and anger everywhere.
Finally, I think that toxic masculinity turns most women off. They see self absorbed and insecure. they see someone that resents their success. that's not attractive. Dare I say, young men might do well to embrace their feminine side more.
As to your point about male embrace of femininity… I don’t say this because I’m conservative, I say this because of experience…Women, especially liberal women, lie about this.
They, by nature, are empathetic. Men are typically not and they do not want us to be, regardless of what they say.
I just met the first woman I’ve ever been attracted to that’s “Never Trump” in dating. She thinks he’s evil and cruel and any man who voted for him is a deal breaker.
She was attractive, extremely assertive, but wanting masculinity in most areas and had an extreme level of seething resentment towards most men, to the point she wants to hurt them emotionally. NOT the type for any man to be feminine around. But she’s the type who claims to want that.
Once she asked and I told her I voted for Trump, she got upset, sent me 10 paragraphs of nonsense and we went our separate ways.
She complained that she only ever matches with guys like me.
Yea… seems to be a typical problem for liberal women. The all too familiar refrain of “I want a tall, fit, masculine, successful man .. but he needs to embody my leftist views”.
That doesn’t really exist, and heaven help the guy who tries to be what women like that claim to want.
For the record.. I have zero issue with women who are successful/career driven. It’s not my preference, but it’s not a deal breaker. I’m conservative but don’t espouse hardline trad views in dating. I can see how that would turn women off, especially ones who have worked hard. But it’s never about that. It’s on a more primal arena. The sexes haven’t changed on a chemical level.

Interesting and insightful post. I'm a bit older and married so I missed the dating app culture. It seems that you would place the blame mostly on the app and the culture and expectations that surround it. Would you suggest that young people simply steer clear of the apps altogether if they're trying to find a long term match?
I don’t think it’s avoidable once you get out of your high school/college years.
Some join running clubs or church groups, so I’d probably recommend something like that, but dating apps are a necessary evil for many who graduate college and move to a new city or leave their friend group behind.-

I’d probably offer a 3rd and Epenesa then figure it out financially if they somehow accept the trade.
Gives them the pick id imagine most are offering plus a player to replace him this year given we’re post-draft. Makes room in our rotation and frees up 6M.
Less than 5% chance id ever see the Bengals trading him to us though.

He didn’t kill George Floyd, but the optics were so bad he was sacrificed.
Trump can pardon him, but I don’t think that affects anything on the state charges, unless they aggressively attempt to move him to another state.. no clue how this is anything beyond a symbolic gesture.
At which point, it’s the right thing to do, but not sure what it actually accomplishes aside from potential unrest and another hit put on Chauvin.

What even is the Episcopalian Church at this point?
Theyve become a spiritual gathering for the LGBTQ community that is now also, apparently, anti-white and self-loathing given the majority of their makeup is white liberals.

It's perfectly okay to not use an app to get dates/find partners if that dynamic isn't working for whomever is using it.
My two kids are Gen Z guys and have no trouble finding women to date. They don't use apps.
Of course it is.. it’s not very common though.
Do they still have a large friend group from high school or college?
The issue is what happens once men no longer have that, although.. the growing issue is that men and women aren’t dating even when in high school & college.
The growing rift between the sexes is approaching red alert level.

Cringe thread.
Cringe, sure.. but the 80/20 discussion is one that needs to be addressed because it’s destroying the millennial and gen z generations.
Its going to have massive socio-political ramifications moving forward.

FIFY
I think most serious people can agree that there is a difference between the government setting the price of bread and the government attempting to fix the disadvantageous position Americans are put in as a result of the global marketplace factors surrounding drug pricing that ends up in us subsidizing the globe on the backs of our consumers.-

What is 80/20?
That 80% of women are competing for the same 20% of men?
In the dating app world, it’s unequivocally true.
If you’re attractive, are or pretend to be successful (because how would they know) and are over 6’, you’ll have success.
What ends up happening is those men entertain women that they normally wouldn’t as hook ups. With no intention to pursue them beyond sex.
Those women, who should be talking to men on their level, end up in months/years long situationships with men above their level. They then have higher standards than they should have and end up bitter/angry at men because of wasting years of their life on unfulfilling relationships where they’re strung along.
This is all on a very superficial level, and there are outliers, but it’s very much a “thing”.
For 20% men, it’s relatively easy to, at least, get laid. To avoid painting a too rosy picture for those of us who fall into that category.. the top 10% of women get attention from celebs, athletes, high net worth guys who date in a world most of us will never know. I dated a Falcons cheerleaders for a while.. the dudes shooting their shot her DM’s were wild. Practice Squad, fringe roster guys, basketball players, influencers and high level execs.
Moral of the story for men.. try to marry before college ends, because if not.. you’re best bet is to fall in that 20% by random chance on the height piece, move to a city, and have fun with hookup culture until it drains the life out of your soul. At worst, you’re in the 80% and enter a dating world skewed against you superficially and encounter a world where women are fine being alone and you’re going to struggle if you have to turn to bumble, tinder, hinge etc.
So in regards to “incels”.. imagine being a guy who struggles to ever even meet a woman in the modern dating world, and once you do, she already has a “men ain’t ish” mentality after getting used by men she now compares you to physically that she was never meant to be entertaining anyway in prior generations.
End result. Lonely angry men. Lonely bitter women.

We're like only 2 months removed from the Myles Garrett situation of a "fractured relationship".
No relationship is fractured when it comes to money. If the Bengals change course and give him what he wants, he'll sign and it will all be water under the bridge.
For most teams, true.
The Bengals are known for difficulty getting liquid enough to pay players, finally just paid a QB and their two WR’s and currently have two rookies holding out due to the franchise being the only one without injury assurances for rookies.

Black people have every right to hear some rhetoric from the far right and choose to never support people who hate them.
White people can do the same with the modern Democrat Party led by loud anti-white racist voices within the party and media.
Couldn’t be more clear after how this has played out.
Leftists showed all their cards on this one.

With all the young, rookie contract talent Beane has on the DL, along with guys in multi-year deals.. I don’t know that we would be out in trading for Hendrickson if it makes sense.
Youd really only be paying Hendrickson on a new contract, Rousseau and Oliver.
Oliver, we can get out of that contract after this year if we want to.
Rousseau, Hoecht, Jackson, Solomon are all here for the next 3 years and you could line up a Hendrickson deal within the same timeframe.
On the interior, if Beane and our player development come through, you’d have Carter, Sanders and Walker on rookie contract for that timeframe as well.
Would essentially confirm Bosa as a one year rental, but for one year the ceiling of our DL would be that of the Eagles last year.
I think we bet on what we’ve done, which on paper could be a Championship Caliber DL by the end of the season.. but money-wise, they only really have actual money tied up in two guys for the foreseeable future.

you maga's love capitalism until you don't....pick a side. I choose capitalism. and single payer.
Your issue is that you think MAGA/Trump is/are Republicans.
There’s crossover, but they’re not Republicans.
They are/He is moderate to conservative socially and populist economically.

So now price controls are a good thing?
I go back and forth on whether I view this as “price controls”It certainly blurs the line. Any Republican just gobbling this up without hesitation is probably doing so as a cheerleader rather based on any serious contemplation of how this will work.
It’s also in line with his whole “we’re getting ripped off tariff” talking point where he’s now wanting pharma companies to raise prices elsewhere to make up for lowering prices in America.. because he is correct on that point - Pharma companies are ripping Americans off to subsidize lower drug costs around the globe.
Price controls vs supply and demand doesn’t truly apply here given we’re held hostage by being a wealthy nation that is forced to pay these prices due to their not being competition in this space via a global marketplace.

As usual...the brainwashed ball wash the news cycle.
FYI - EO's don't mean crap in the long run.... actual legislation takes talent
FYI - Please refer to the part of my post that discusses EO vs Legislation.
I specifically stated that, regardless of how one feels about this EO, it will have popular public support.
The rest of your post is just Trump hating. Who knows if the India/Pakistan ceasefire holds, but at least the WH got involved and seems to have made the situation a bit better. Those like you were accusing them of having no handle on the situation just hours prior to the announcement.
I’ve mentioned multiple times that I’m on the fence about tariffs, but the China 90 day deal is objectively a good news cycle. Regardless of us going scorched earth on all countries, China NEEDED to be the one country we did do this with and Trump is the only one to actually try it.
Oh, sorry.. Now we’re mad at Trump for taking 5 months to get a hostage released that would’ve never happened under Biden or Harris? Ok.

Objectively strong timeline for Trump currently.
Regardless of how one feels about this EO, it’s going to have public support.
China/USA tariff deal.
India/Pakistan ceasefire.
Potential movement towards the end of the Ukraine/Russia war.
Edan Alexander hostage release.

It will likely result in higher prices elsewhere. It sounds like we were subsidizing prices in poorer countries like Africa for instance. We paid more and they paid less. No more. Bill Gates will probably be on MSNBC saying Trump is killing millions of Africans
Bill Gates is already saying this due to USAID cuts.
Might as well double down.

It’s interesting watching the Vance/Rubio dynamic in this Administration.
They seem to genuinely get along, while also - very clearly - being the two front runners to succeed Trump.
Good to see them get this locked down. Last thing the world needs is India/Pakistan poppin off.. hopefully this lasts.

You’ll continue to lose, most likely.
Your side has proven over and over that it cannot accomplish its goals within the confines of the law.
The solution has been to either ignore the judges, as we saw with the father from Maryland, or to attempt to arrest them.
This would effectively be the end of democracy in America.
Tread lightly.
If Democrats keep pulling stunts like visiting a human trafficker, likely gang member in El Salvador and attacking ICE Agents in Newark, Trump might just get the public polling he needs to defy court orders.
Tread lightly? Maybe look in the mirror.

Buffalo at ATL (Question)
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Falcons have no buzz in Atlanta. Only teams that do are the Braves and Dawgs.
There will be an absurd number of Bills fans at this game. I’d say easily over half the stadium.
