When men suffer social isolation, women may pay the price, too
good start subheadline
If men are in trouble, what does that mean for women?
the thinning fabric of many men's social worlds may place added strain on the women in their life
nearly two thirds of young American men report that "no one really knows me well.
More specifically, among couples in a heterosexual relationship, men lean on their romantic partner more than women do
one that suggests men's emotional infrastructure is often built on foundations that women maintain.
we call the labor that women specifically put into helping men with frayed social ties "mankeeping."
fellas is your foid mankeeping you?
addressing the inequality that women face as a result of mankeeping requires challenging rigid masculine norms that leave so many men with impoverished social ties to begin with.

These don't have to be explicitly political. Just something that can be applied to our politics. Unfortunately while the writing in Madoka Magica is top tier and the story makes me feel in ways that few other forms of media can, it does not do politics very well which is why I took my favorite quote from a series that is actually based around geopolitics.
In a way this quote truly encapsulates the condition of our current political system, and in a way it mirrors the shinobi world quite well. For example we don't get to choose our sides. People act like we get a choice but there just are not many options. For example like the shinobi, we are given a village, a country. And that country can be segmented down into clans, families, and many other forms of allegiances. All of these are decided entirely by the nature of our own birth, rather than our own choices.
We are guided only by the necessity to make the most prudent choice. We are expected to be part of the group and sacrifice our entire being for its benefit. Like the shinobi each one of us is little more than a tool to be discarded when we are no longer useful. Is that not the way things should be?
Anyways, I'm excited to see your favorite anime quotes that can be applied to political systems! If anyone finds away to do this with the Madoka Magica series please let me know! I have been trying to find a way for years but it just doesn't seem to fit.

Would subtraction also approximate division?
Yes.
Would negation also approximate the reciprocal?
I've always hated that it's called an "inverse". It's not an inverse. The inverse of square root is square. If they had called it "reciprocal", it would have been clear to me what it does, but "inverse" confused the heck out of me when I first saw it.
It's confusing for non-mathematicians, but (and you may know that) it is not incorrect. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_element "In mathematics, the concept of an inverse element generalises the concepts of opposite (โx) and reciprocal (1/x) of numbers."
Shoulda just called it fast
mapping()
"inverse" has a very specific meaning: inverse(x) * x = 1, x^2 * x != 1 for any x other than 1. So no, x^2 is not the inverse of sqrt(x)
The inverse is about the negative power right? Square root is the 0.5

Or that was BS from the start to pressure Turkey with lmao. S400 radar probably picked up dozens of F35s operating in yurape airspace so far, they have a 600km umbrella ffs.
And their F35s will be picked up by actual Russian radars, not ones merely made there lmao.
Reverse engineering and installing new subsystems is the same thing
These whiny cute twinks actually make me hope that happens lmao
Literally single digit IQ takes.
No yurape country is even remotely close to a FGAF and the country with the best aviation MIC on the continent also sells to India.

He's stepping down due to Ted Tso comparing maintainers to here: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/
I honestly don't really have a QRD other than another maintainer stepped down due to what he saw was a slight by the Linux maintainers . Funny thing is the guy who set him off (Ted Tso) is the guy who caused the rust filesystem maintainer to step down as well due to a very public grilling

This woman made a post a week ago stating that Trump will make the great reveal today. I guess he still has a few hours left to do that.
This guy says Trump will soon reveal technology that will revolutionize transportation, but all of the replies are just concerned with when he is going to bring out the medbeds.
A poll is posted asking people if they believe medbeds are real. 63% say yes.
This guy replies saying the town where Trump got shot actually already has a medbed center open.
What the heck is Tesla BioHealing? Any connection to Musk, or are they just piggybacking off the name?
https://www.teslabiohealing.com/
This is their website. What the heck is with that tab in Japanese? Clicking it downloads a PDF in Japanese that talks about how they provide minerals that can fix your "chi." Seems like a legit medical company.
The FAQ section on their website talks incessantly about some pseudo-health shit involving "biophotons" whatever the frick that means.
This section of the FAQ is what holds any real information. The "cover our butt legally" part buried in the FAQ.
Actually, Elon Musk already disclosed that medbeds exist in a video I saw but can't remember the name of and basically you're fricking stupid if you still think they aren't real.
Is this person a fricking bot?
Trump is going to usher in a communist utopia according to these people.
Military bases have been filled up with medbeds and very soon you will be able to go to one and get all of your physical ailments solved FOR FREE!
Very soon all hospitals will be shut down and completely replaced by medbeds. I, for one, can't wait. Thank you, Mr. President!

SNL had Tom Hanks play a racist Trump supporter who wouldnโt shake a Black manโs hand. This propaganda is dumb and isnโt funny.
— Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) February 17, 2025
When will they learn?? pic.twitter.com/b5s5culphF
For those of you not in the know, Black Jeopardy is a recurring SNL sketch in which the trivia categories are replaced with Black slang,. Naturally, many of the jokes use Black stereotypes as the punchline, so you'd think rightoids would love this. Sadly, the chuds of the moment are too thin-skinned to appreciate this.
8 years ago, Tom Hanks joined Black Jeopardy as Doug, a Trump supporter (hick) who fits into the show perfectly due to a shared distrust of elites, but is reluctant to shake the host's hand.
Recently, as part of the 50th Anniversary, SNL did another Black Jeopardy. It was the least funny one so far, but that's not important. At the end, Doug appears and does the same thing as before (getting a question right, is reluctant to shake the host's hand).
Rightoids were not having this, proclaiming and
finding common ground to be instead to mockery of all rightoids, and an expression of the liberal elite's pure contempt for them.
You can see some here: https://x.com/search?q=libs+of+tiktok+tom+hanks, but here's a few others:

the dejenerate podcast - my tv show that i am writing wish to direct 19:07
Jinxthinker is glad he's not in the European Union. Frick all those dumb countries.
0:25 We go to Rachel Zegler Fans page on Facebook. He encountered new photographs. He needs to speak to her about being in the new TV show that he's working on + how she's in danger from the right wing Bolsheviks like Stalin
1:20 He should be Zegler's husband/armed bodyguard with a gun for both of their protection.
1:45 Jinxthinker is a famously reviled anti-libertarian/racist/white activist. You can check any of the right wing Hitler style or libertarian websites to see him labeled as an anti
2:45 You can tell by looking at people's faces if they're anti's or not. Zeglar is an anti and some type of mestizo
3:05 Calls for the summary execution of Alec Baldwin's family before he is shot in the head in a desert
3:40 Jinxthinker will need to step in as the leader/protection of Zegler.
OBS frickery. Jinxthinker doesn't want to show you the whole script
4:00 Describing his script: it has full s*x scenes, violence, swearing, 18+, it ain't pokemon b-word.
4:25 Brings up tv show.odt in Open Office. He wants Anna Taylor Joy to play a role, she will need to dye her hair black.
4:40 Jinxthinker plays a secondary character called Jaxon who is black. He's a leader of an Atlanta gang of black and mixed race British people who live in Atlanta?
5:00 Rachel is played by Anna Taylor Joy and is emo. Megan is played by Rachel Zeglar (name might change). Whole thing is set in Atlanta. There's real s*x, no fake butt s*x, so it's like relevant to the story. Also they're gangstas, the most feared ones in the city of Atlanta. They fight gangs of Catholics and own a nightclub called Cromwell's.
6:20 There's another scene in the backstory. Where Rachel is a cheerleader in University and she gets expelled unfairly by the dean of the University for defending herself against some chavs.
- 7:20 She's the toppest cheerleader and looks like this AI woman. The setting is Atlanta if it were Italian and Irish and shit like that
8:10 the Good cheerleading factors in the story because she uses her cheerleading to frick up a racist who is bullying a Christian Afro-Asiatic .
- 9:30 we look for one of the violences, it's pretty cool. They go to an Italian restaurant to take care of business because they're dealing drugs. It's no mercy gang affiliation
10:40 The bad guy at the moment is a bad guy called Luigi named after the CEO shooter, right
. They go to a Catholic church where Luigi meets the Bishop/white nationalist leader to worship satan together.
11:20 Dialog includes Rachel declaring herself an anti as a bad guy screams to Hitler, Elon, and Trump for help.
11:40 To set up the next episode, Luigi meets Bishop Timothy O'Biden very subtly named after Biden and a right winger he met once (this is a deep-cut reference to when he went to a right wing meet up back when he was a right winger and thought everyone was r-slurred)
12:20 we look for a scene of an episode where she narrates her backstory as you watch it happen. Rachel decides to kill the dean for expelling her & he's also a libertarian (she doesn't know this until the CP falls out of his briefcase after she assaults him)
13:30 Rachel is 28 years old like Anna Taylor Joy. He wants a 3rd female character, but hasn't thought of an actress yet. The only problem is Rachel Zegler is hated by white nationalists
14:10 They go to McDonalds and have a burger and say I love you at some point. Both characters are bougie and rich and shit too.
14:55 They're both owners of an emo club and drug dealers and rich as frick badasses. They get into selling heroin because people want a comedown from the ecstasy, but the Bishop wants to flood the streets with heroin to crash the economy(? Heroin price?).
15:40 Then they find the heroin is coming from the catholic church which has Hitler and Mussolini iconography and Spy x Family CP on the walls and a loli shrine for wanking to CP.
16:10 Trump is also in it as the mysterious white nationalist leader you only hear on the phone
16:40 Eventually the emo gang will recruit British and Black and Multiracial gang members to take over America and make it a refuge. Because it's based on real life, right?
17:00 Jinxthinker needs funding and also he will direct it. Will consider Prada and Gucci product placement.
17:30 Further descriptions of the characters looks/clothes
Please God, let him make a pilot episode in Vyond Free Trial
!jinxthinkers would you kill hundreds of Irishmen and Italians to keep Cromwell's open to emo ecstasy/heroin enjoyers?

Redditors mad x24
Zelensky is a heck of a lot smarter than Trump so
Trump offered 500 million for all resources and his personal guarantee so 4 years of peace
Redditors mad mad mad
No, he still thinks he can win. That's why the Russian army is still in Ukraine.
Hitler won his last battle on April 1945. His longest streak without winning a battle is couple weeks.
Ukraine won't its last battle in September 2022. They haven won a battle in over 2 years.
PUUUUUUUUTIN IS LOSING
https://old.reddit.com/r/worldnews/comments/1ikrk40/russia_to_draft_100000_troops_putin_is_not/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Russian_mobilization
700k left 80% returned
Will 18-21 year old return that were 3 years ago 14-17 ?
But Russia is just increasing it army size and it has nothing to do with Ukraine since Russian using volunteers and 300k contract soldiers so regular army is inside Russia.
Also Redditors copping with China taking over Russia. That will be a gg for whole west that's why Trump trying to cozy with Russia.
But with all the resources in Ukraine we have to do simple math. So if Ukraine has oil for 100 buxx and it cost 200 buxx to remove it than it's absolutely not worth it and Ukrainian resources ain't easy to get on top of it they have small amount of it. Greenland of Australia is more worthy.
TLDR: Trump offers 500 millions for west Ukraine
