@Adventurequest Uh what’s the phrase, outcome independence? Mosey on over for a chat, shake some hands and introduce yourself. Whatever happens next is irrelevant, move through the interaction as it comes and have fun with it.

In fact, that advice applies to life. Experience it first.

@Vermillion-Rx HAHA, I've got to give credit for actually coming up with such a ludicrous idea that I know will draw a crowd.

@Stigma Could be a number of reasons but in the end I doubt trump and Musk can stay looking close pals for the whole term. That's like expecting two roosters to not fight when you put them in the same hen house. They both like being in charge and their agenda will diverge.

@MentORPHEUS Why do you reckon?

@TheAurora What @derdeutscher said.

The worldview you’ve presented is a worldview seen through multiple varieties of screens. Form a real worldview born of life experience out in the world, and independent of seeking out confirmation of the negative aspects put out by someone else.

An average guy might have gotten a lot of matches in Southeast Asia and Latin America around 5 years ago but now it is hard even in those places.

Where in Southeast Asia are you? “Matches” is a funny way of saying “pick girls up at the bar.” Which kind of speaks to the idea of a worldview that isn’t born of living in the real world.

@Stigma You sound somewhat frustrated. Probably angry because I dare to question hot chick about her underwear choice, which you would never do. You are probably spineless dude who would be happy to have ANY kind of chick in front of him, and would not dare to open his mouth.

I am thunder ALPHA, and I give them shit for not thinking on ME and MY needs.

Get a grip bro!

@Vermillion-Rx You practiced meditation at all? There's a lot of new age bunkum surrounding it, but the practice distilled down to its actual function can be very helpful and later insightful for a mind busy with thoughts.

@derdeutscher I’ll be straight with you. I’m sick to the back teeth of dealing with people with petty and self made problems that make them miserable and loathsome creatures on a day to day basis that take it out on everyone else. This story right here? Checks all the boxes. Get a fucking grip. People put on underwear every single day, and then there’s you angling to make your hang up about it hers. I can just tell misery likes company here.

@Stigma oh man that's something

@Typo-MAGAshiv Oh no no no hahahahaha
