The first rule of the internet I ever encountered back in the mid-90s was “don’t feed the trolls”. We’ve lost that piece of philosophy along the way, and now we all actively engage with cunts instead of just blocking them and moving on. Oblivion is the ultimate tool for dealing with anonymous people who behave like fuckheads. It’s a win for them if you respond to their provocations, so just don’t. Don’t be posting shit like “I know you’re trolling, but…” just don’t even acknowledge them. Block/report/move on. It’s really that simple. The simplest remedy is also the most effective. How cool is that? We just have to tell our limbic systems, because the urge to engage is overwhelming sometimes. But take pleasure in sending these bastards into the abyss, enjoy hitting that block button and growing your blocklist. Look at your blocklist from time to time, and bask in the glory of it. Delight in how many people have been stopped dead in their tracks from ever bothering you again. Get excited when you see a new cunt emerge, and how much fun it will be to add them to the list.

As for ‘reply guys’ and general pissiness from curmudgeons (that is, people who are dickish but not actually harassing you) you can simply think of whatever anger or displeasure they’re expressing as being very much their problem. If they talk to you like you’re stupid, just know that they’re struggling with their own issues and that’s why they’re behaving like a stone in everyone’s shoe. Talk to them normally and without emotional language (if you need to talk to them at all), and keep in mind that anyone else who happens upon this interaction will see that you’re a reasonable and cool person and the other guy is a wanker.

If you knew the other person had a brain tumour that made them behave like a prick, you’d be much less bothered by them, but the thing is, that “brain tumour” exists in everyone. No one is really the master of their own behaviour, we’re all dragging millennia of other people’s genetic shittiness behind us, and our individual capacity to introspect and reflect on our shittiness and try to do better is also something we don’t create within ourselves, we’re all pretty much stuck with what we have, with our wiggle room for improvement being as preordained as our circulatory systems. So think of everyone as a tumour-riddled victim of circumstance and they won’t be able to hurt or annoy you anywhere near as much. Be happy that your particular tumours aren’t making you behave like a dickhead in public. It’s all about framing, just don’t let the other guy do the framing and you’re good.

A lunatic confused by the moon. There’s a certain poetry to that.

Maybe that infamous copper salesman had selflessly excised all of his radioactive copper from his stocks so as not to rip off or harm the customer. Maybe he deserves an apology. Inferior copper that isn’t full of syphilis or whatever is better than great copper that melts your face off.

Ben Shapiro, man of the people, self-made millionaire, no help or handouts, no complaints, just pure husslin’ and bustlin’, hardest worker in America, Ben Shapiro knows the value of a dollar, he knows what it’s like to struggle, but he made it through, for he is Ben “Privilegeless” Shapiro.

If JD were to put a bullet in Trump’s head, he’d be pardoned by the next president for saving the planet.

Is there some way I can contact, perhaps via an open letter in some x-chan dungeon, the mass shooters of tomorrow and convince them to be a little more discriminating in their target selection when they decide to go out in a hail of bullets?

It has always struck me as being the same impulse that makes hoarders do what they do. It’s just that, because the rich are hoarding wealth, which everyone sees as a desirable thing to hoard, they’re not treated like the fiending addict freaks that they are. I think it’s simply their warped personalities, rather than some Machiavellian master plan.

That’s a great idea, DDoS their brains to the point where they zone out 😆

At my age, if I had the choice between eating my own M&Ms or doing the sexes with women while also doing maintenance and upkeep for a sex dungeon and having to make eye contact with women in order to lure them back to it… I’d just have the M&Ms (the peanut ones, naturally).

If you’ve ever met my dog, you’ll know why I cannot disagree with this theory 😆

I can speak from personal experience on this one: Taxi Driver (1976)

When I first watched it (admittedly I was only 13 or so at the time) I pretty much took it as a story about

Watching it a few years later, the true horror of it became clear to me, and the contemptible piece of shit Travis Bickle is was made obvious. I think I was just too young to get it, but I was also a huge De Niro fan and so, whatever his character was, I was ride or die with him.

Travis Bickle predicted incel mass shooters. People seem to think he was the cool antihero he thought himself to be, I often see his face in people’s profile pics and on cringy self-aggrandising quote memes. He was a disgusting pig of a man and the film is not a celebration of anything he did. On the contrary.

I would die for that kittlet.

It’s legit misogyny masquerading as a male empowerment philosophy. Without thinking women are shallow robots, there’s no looksmaxxing movement. Incels who are offended by the label in the current climate (which is understandable, what with the mass shootings and all that) are trying to dress up their “women are to blame for my insecurity” worldview as some sort of intellectually-distinct way of being that isn’t just inceldom. It’s essentially a GQ magazine cover image pasted over the front of a 4chan manifesto. The kind of wankers who smoke cigars and wear sunglasses indoors because they have a 13-year-old boy’s conception of what a successful man looks like. They’re torn between hating women, and spending their entire lives being focused on impressing them. They’ll literally hammer their faces and stretch their jaws to become what their primary enemy (women) demands of them. It’s like if a Hamas member started going to temple and grew some payot/sidelocks.

This was about 50 times more fascinating than I thought physically possible to contain within a 2 minute video 🤓

I just got nuclear nostalgia whiplash when I scrolled down and saw this:

I used to play with those brushes as a kid, and I’d completely forgotten about it until just now!

knockout.chat is a nice old-style forum, if you prefer that kind of UI/UX. It’s not a PHPBB throwback, it has some modern considerations, but it’s still a forum. Has some rules that prevent it turning into a cesspit, unlike many other popular forums I could list. Very inclusive and friendly!

Probably produces better results than snorting a line of crushed-up Ivermectin, or whatever it is RFK is suggesting these days.

The biggest, hairiest trans men need to start pinching off loaves in the women’s bathroom, preferably in groups of 4 or 5. See how long this law lasts.
