PATIENT: She wanted me to suck on her strap on.
ME: And that bothered you.
PATIENT: No. But then she called me her “little sea turtle” because I was choking on plastic.
ME: (spits out coffee)
"we fucked up handling an import clearance process so we got embarrassed and spent 2 months getting warrants to stage a big raid where we performatively evacuated a street in an attempt to try to intimidate a 22 year old who bought literal micrograms of a substance with no evidence whatsoever of any danger and now we found out it probably wasn't even illegal so we're pushing even harder to prosecute him and ruin his life"

As someone who has had to navigate this shit, the reason is quite simple:

If being strong or rugged or handsome or hard working or whatever is gender affirming for your masculinity you will do it regardless of external and social pressures to do so.

If what's actually gender affirming for you is the social game of masculinity which is explicitly a power game (masculinity as expressed by dominance displays of others and perceived superiority) ... that requires engagement and others to buy in.

The first can't die. It's something you do for yourself. The second? Doesn't function in a society that's less and less interested in playing that game.

So yeah. Anyone who sees masculinity as able to die?

Dear Microsoft. Here is a list of things I want the Start Menu to do:

* Show my installed programs
* Search my local files
* Provide access to system settings

Here is a list of things I do *not* want the Start Menu to do:

* Show the weather for a randomly-selected town near my network's public IP infrastructure
* Show tabloid headlines
* Show programs I *don't* have installed
* Search the web via Bing
* Show adverts(!)
* Attempt to engage me in conversation with a hallucinating LLM

Thanks.

I would just like to say that these signs in the DFW airport bathrooms are peak social engineering, and I do hope Dan Patrick enjoys all the phone calls from people upset about the government photographing their hairy bits.
