I got to see Weird Al live back in high school and it cemented my respect for him because he

1.) Played a live show in my town, which rarely attracted big name acts

&

2.) He performed Albuquerque live; as an encore.

One of my friends went on a paleontological dig in New Mexico and Weird Al showed up. Apparently his daughter is really into paleontology and he knew whoever was in charge of the dig. My friend says he was very nice but very much in dad mode rather than fan interaction mode.

Finding this podcast was a bitch, especially when there's an identically named one whose latest episode is about Metal Gear Survive. I really thought I had it that time!

yea it was pretty funny. Like, having someone actually go 'well you asked who cares, I guess I do' is probably good on the podcast in general. Like when Amber and Virgil had to tell Matt 'no, dipshit, the first 'easter egg' was there because those guys wouldn't get credit otherwise it wasn't a 'self suck'' and all. Sometimes the Chapo guys need someone to go 'ok but shut up a second I need to make sure you understand how reality actually is beyond Twitter'.

Speaking of understanding reality, we can add yet another entry to the 'Kill All Normies was maybe the fastest poorly aging hot take on internet politics ever done'

the whole thing is nonsense there isn't some decline of monogamy. losers always had a harder time loving than handsome/fit/successful men.

not having sex does do a number on your brain but if you aren't a shithead you realize the problem is with you and you improve yourself.

like i get wanting to gently caress, okay that makes sense. its something people want to do and society has made it seem super important that you do it a lot

but where this gets weird for me is all the incels who are worried about passing on their genes. when did young dudes start wanting to have kids? that's just bizarre

What. We've got a billion years of evolution bearing down on us to gently caress and cum in each other.

It's really weird to just uncritically describe the dogma of hate groups, especially in a book where she absolutely does critically look at the left's online stuff and outright takes the right's side often by saying being told to acknowledge systematic racism and all 'shames them for being white' and pushes them to the alt-right.

Also yea the dogma isn't even accurate, 'decline of monogamy' is some straight up "DEGENERACY" nonsense and acting as if this is some new trend where men aren't entitled to get hosed by any woman they want is really dumb.

It's not true. All of the studies I have read show people in developed countries are having less sex overall, with the youngest generations having fewer than previous generations at comparable age. Speaking anecdotally I know many many women who have had, or are having, years long dry spells.

Even from a western centric view of monogamy the more accurate statement is that monogamy is the aberration that went from personal choice to civil law with the rise of a more theocratic state, and now that that grip is loosening people are more free to choose.

sex is a basal need in the same sense food and sleep are. and socially it's an issue as well - friends gab about that type of thing. so you have friends asking what'd you do this weekend and it just reminds you oh right i didn't get any.

i remember a dry spell years back where i had a great job, great place, good friends, but holy poo poo is that a massive void. it's that these guys don't go ehhh it'll pick up eventually or again do nothing to improve themselves.

They covered it really well in the one episode a few months back. These dudes idealize the era of patriarchal power when arranged marriage was more common. They purposefully exclude the part where you have 18 kids and 14 die and then your wife dies in childbirth and you work 19 hours a day tending your farmstead and you die of tetanus at 42.

They don't understand (or purposely ignore) that things were that way for a reason.
