this time references to the Enola Gay were removed from government websites for DEI reasons
No, they were flagged for removal.
Hopefully, this will get straightened out.
Trump did it yet again
No.
This is either:
A) unintended consequences caused by people lazily using ctrl + F and then not looking at the results,
...or...
B) malicious compliance (ReSiSt!!!1) deliberately done to undermine Trump
His executive order was to remove DEI garbage, not anything and everything with the word "gay" in it or anything and everything with minorities or women in it.

SteadyNeuros - How do any of you do it?
How? How do you guys approach women with any kind of non-platonic intent? How do you EVER get any woman interested for ANY length of time? I physically cannot bring...... [more]
where to start with all of this?
It sounds like you are at rock bottom. You need to forget about women for now.
You need to build a life. That means
- Career
- Purpose
- health and fitness
- financial health
- mental health
- social groups
- network of friends
- social skills.
- real actual fucking confidence.
Forget all about women. Women come and go. what women don't want is some desperate man that can't even look after himself. learn to look after yourself, build your life.
it's going to take time and effort and getting off your ass. do you run? I would start by doing the following
- do a 5k run. and do it every damn day.
- tidy your room, your house, your car.
- fucking clean yourself up.
- start fucking lifting - just do the 5x5 routine for 6 months. no excuses.
- start financial planning.
- focus on your career.
just do those fucking things, and I guarantee you there will be women available.

Breaking the First Rule of Fight Club
"The Club That Dare Not Speak Its Name"
This is an essay that appears in the new and wide-ranging SmartPop anthology, entitled You Do Not Talk About Fight Club: I Am Jack’s Completely Unauthorized Essay Collection. The anthology was edited by the brilliant media ecologist Read Mercer Schuchardt and features a forward by Chuck Palahniuk himself.
The Physics of Fight Club
There is a savage joy in violence. The secret of the success of Fight Club is its acceptance of that basic and uncomfortable truth, which is as well-known to every martial artist, gang member, and football hooligan as it is completely alien to the sedentary sort of middle-aged individuals favored by those who publish novels. For as men have known since long before the Colosseum’s sands were first soaked with blood, there is no adrenaline rush so great as the moment when two men put one another to the physical test.
Fight Club is a fascinating little book which not only embraced that truth, but in doing so, translated surprisingly well to the cinematic medium. This should probably not have been surprising, given that the author’s witch’s brew of male fury and raw but stylized violence is almost perfectly suited for that male audience which so enjoys the cinematic adventures of Bruce Lee, Jean-Claude van Damme, Jackie Chan, and a host of other aggressively oriented male leads. The combination of that visceral appeal with the brilliant casting of a ripped and shirtless Brad Pitt for the ladies all but assured Hollywood hit status.
When viewed from a technical perspective, Fight Club is nearly as absurd as any wuxia extravaganza featuring aerial acrobatics and mad dashes through the treetops, whereas from a psychological perspective, it is impressively accurate. To the combat-aware reader, the book raises the interesting question of how the author could have gotten the latter so right and the former so wrong.
Fight Club subscribes to the common conventional fiction that it is not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but rather the size of the fight in the dog. Although in Fight Club terms, this might be better described as the size of the proverbial canine’s violent sociopathy. As with most aphorisms, there is an element of truth to this; all things being equal, the tougher individual will usually prevail. But outside of the formalized structure of the boxing ring, all things are very seldom equal.
The most basic truth of unarmed combat is that F = M x A: Force equals Mass times Acceleration. Since Force is the measurement of what is smashing into your face and is the primary variable determining exactly what the effect of that blow will be, it is very important to understand the significance of this equation. Since Mass is a function of size, this means that a larger individual will usually pack a more powerful punch than a smaller one. Usually, but not always.
