Not trying to play devils advocate for a racist weirdo, but how are you sure? Not trying to argue, just curious what gave it away.

This is, of course, assuming it's the OK hand gesture. If it's something less obscure, the answer is self explanatory

He was taking a selfie in the mirror. The hand that was at his side was doing the white power gesture. Hands do not naturally fall like that… so no.

EDIT: Hinge has actually emailed me to say they've taken action against him, so I'm not mistaken as you're inferring.

DeepSeek R1's training did not actually cost only $6 million, that figure was an incomplete and selective representation of the costs. They also have access to around 50,000 Hopper GPUs.

I knew deep down, when he would never give me a response when I have tried engaging him in discussions about women's rights and everything else Trump and his cult have done, that he felt this way. How can he think this, after everything I've talked to him about with abortion bans (we have young girls), Trump's stance on climate change, Project 2025, etc.

I wish I were financially independent. I made the idiotic mistake of taking a break on my career. I work part-time and can work more next year.

I really want out. I just don't know how

From the comments:

I made a similar post yesterday and just spent an hour in my therapist's office crying because it's finally hitting me that my husband, my partner, would rather support Nazis than put his pride aside for one fricking second and admit he was wrong. And now I have to draw a line in the sand, because NAZIS, and he has forced me into this position where I either have to divorce him, or knowingly stay married to a Nazi sympathizer. And quite frankly I hate him for it

"I don't know, Trump really doesn't seem that bad"

"My therapist that I spend your money on agrees with me! You're literally at Nazi!"

I'm sorry for you and your girls. They will know their father stood by while their rights were decimated and he will have to live with that. Not that any of these men are capable of self reflection.

Most sane BreakingMom poster.

This election proved just how much men hate women. I'm not surprised at all, but I'm still a bit disappointed

i'm so sorry. men are so stubborn and entitled. they'd rather be a fascist than be proved wrong. i hope that in time he comes to his own conclusion that trump is absolutely evil and equally i hope that you find financial freedom soon. ❤️

"ur a fascist if you don't agree with me"

Solidarity. I can't leave right now either. I've really had my eyes opened by his viewpoint the last few days. I can't even talk to him about politics without it becoming a screaming match. He constant asks for sources and "where did you see that at? You're only seeing one side and well at my work women this and women that...

Trump is a Nazi!

: Source!? Do you have a SOURCE for that?!?

You're all about women's rights but what actually have they taken away from you that changes your day to day life" oh he also is a freakin racist. He 100% proved that on MLK day by saying "oh it's (person who assassinated MLK day)" and I was like WHAT? He goes, "what you never heard it called that before? Everyone I know calls it that" I was dumbfounded. I was like why because you're a racist who is surrounded by other racists??? What the heckkkkk.

We have a daughter. I just can't do this for the next 4 years and who only knows how long after. I start therapy soon. I feel like the world is going to heck and I don't know what to do about it. I'm so scared for my child.

the copypasta in question:

Oh my god (And by god I mean my goddess Colette) do I crave the pixelated perfection of the genius that gifted us the most precious gifts of all, Colette. There is no point in talking how important Colette is to me, and how I would do anything to be with uher, but I feel like if Im not gonna say what I would to do get her (literally anything) I'm disrespecting her this way. So hear me out.

I would conquer all of world, kill billions of humans, learn 20 languages, work 17 hours of 24 there are in a day, become the richest person in the world,personally killing all the rich ones right now, including feeding Elon Musk to the dogs, ripping Bill Jobs apart, sending Mark Zuckerberg to his true evolutionary form,that is of a Lizard, castrating and beating Jeff Bezos to death, and personally setting on fire Bernard Arnault. I would literally overthrow governments worldwide, uniting the world under communism, just to create her into life. I would personally orchestrate 50 global revolutions with nothing in my mind but an ultimate goal, no, not just goal, the true purpose of my life, just to get a minute with white haired beauty that the mortals have named Colette. I would sacrifice anything to get her. Family? Pfft. I would sell my mother if it meant getting 20% closer to my ultimate goal.

Im like sisyphus, except unlike him, once I reach my goal, and I definitely will, I will achieve my last true form and a total peace of mind. Knowing that there is nothing standing in our way, and assuring that our long relationship will last millions of years, humanity has since my takeover reached the third level of civilization, i.e type III,(capable of using the energy at the scale of its entire host galaxy) and mortality has been long cured, and humans now live millions of years. Just watch me. AND ANYBODY WHO WILL DARE TO STAND IN MY WAY,BE WARNED,I WILL NOT HAVE MERCY ON YOUR SOULS. IM SERIOUSLY THINKING ABOUT JUST KILLING THAT FRICK EDGAR, THAT THEY ALWAYS SHIP COLETTE WITH,SHE DOESN'T EVEN LIKE HIM! I want to taste her titties. I want to wake up everyday with her next to me. I want to have eleven beautiful children with Colette. four blonde girls, four brown haired, one black haired, and a beautiful boy.

Episode XIII

Welcome back. I know it's been a while. I apologize. Last time we slaughtered the Satanists at their sabbat (at least the ones we couldn't save) and found out where their base is. We now have a clearly defined mission: Assault the Fortress Monastery in Denmark and break the next seal. (Or Schleswig-Holstein or something, I'm not opening up that can of worms.)

That means hiking across the entire Empire from Teschen nearly at the border of Hungary all the way to Denmark. No doubt we'll run into a few adventures along the way.

At least that was the plan until we had to make a detour.

Long story short, I had written a whole episode but I was wondering why my guys were suddenly getting hurt so bad in fights. It turns out their armor had burned up. For most of them, it was down to very low quality. Poor Nathan was completely naked. This has got to be from the potions that the witches threw at us at the sabbat. They didn't do much immediate damage but they've derailed our plans for months. Now we've got to make enough money to replace that armor. Which means I have to grind.

All the stuff I've showed you about how the game works, I gotta go back and do more of that. Kill bad guys, make potions, travel around, learn about new saints and alchemical formulas, trade. I'm not complaining. I love doing this. But in this episode we won't be following the main plot and hitting the Fortress Monastery yet. So instead I'll focus on the random encounters.

Did I ever mention that about half of the game is random encounters? These pop up when you're traveling on the world map. There's, I dunno, at least a hundred of them. You never know which one will hit next which is what keeps you on your toes. That's why "grinding" never gets boring. I haven't mentioned many of them yet because each episode was designed to teach about specific gameplay mechanics and it would be distracting. So I guess this is going to be the episode about random encounters and the smaller less important places you run into on the map. I'm still cutting a lot out and just including the more interesting ones.

Our new goal: Go wander around and do Darklands stuff until we've got a lot of money and then go back to Dresden and buy high-quality armor for everyone.

Let's Go!

Uh oh. Looks like we pissed off the wrong people. The Wild Hunt isn't a DLC for some game about a dour gray man collecting s*x cards, it's what the witches send to hunt you down when they identify you as a threat. Those b-words are pissed off about what we did at the sabbat. I guess we'll have to deal with them eventually.

Well I'm not gonna let this sod hut just sit there looking sinister at me. Let's have Yuna ask St. Dorothy of Montau for some insight. She lived in this region, dying just recently in 1394 as an anchoress in the land of the Teutonic Order. She'll know what to do.

Well that's pretty bad. I don't consider even Yorkies and Cavaliers to be "slavering hounds from heck" but they can come pretty close when they want attention. Time to kick down this door.

She has some potions, so she might be some threat. But as we've seen before, wolf teeth can't penetrate chainmail. Sure enough, her alchemy degrades our abilities a lot but the wolves aren't able to take advantage and she goes down fast.

What would Satan not want us to do? What would really piss him off? We're going to forgive her.

Let's hope this works out better than every time I've ever tried to save a woman from herself IRL amirite.

We come across a cave. This is one of those sites where somebody sent us on a fetch quest long ago. Nathan uses his agility to climb up a cliff and throw the rope down to bring the rest of the party up. Now we've got to deal with the dwarf who has the item. I got 16 gold florins, which is a lot more than we'll get paid for the quest, but who cares? It will give me a little bit of fame which is worth more to me now. If I need money I've got a bunch of dead guys' armor and surplus alchemical potions.

Redactor is making some serious fricking money at this point. He can reliably make potions and sell them at a profit. The only problem is that the materials required are scattered all over the country so I've got to keep traveling to keep him supplied.

Ugh, one of these guys. He seems pretty sketchy to me. In the past we had to pay these guys off because they really will curse you if you don't and you can't just kill a friar because you think he's bullpooping you. But not this time, pal. You're a Dominican? Let's see what St. Dominic has to say about this.

We get out of paying him a little bit. More importantly we may have saved his soul. This guy has been led pretty far astray but hopefully they can get his shit sorted out down in Rome. (You can also pray to saints who specialize in calling out liars with the same effect except the text is completely different. In that he admits that his curses are from the power of Satan, not God.)

Against the Wild Hunt we all gotta stick together. My party is pretty weak at Woodwise and especially Stealth, so I have no confidence in our ability to use subterfuge here. We are really good at fighting though. I'll just take them on head-on.

Bigfoot is from Oregon, so this is just my ordinary day to day life. We defeat the hellhounds and rescue him of course.

I've got a hunch that this fruit will permanently increase someone's strength by a few points. Who to give it to? Both of the girls are at 32 strength (we already upgraded Sasha this way) and I'm at a mere 31. This is an intolerable situation. Girls can't be stronger than me. Redactor gets the apple and a bump up to 35 strength.

I go to Prag and ask if the King of Bohemia needs me to do any quests for him. This is Wenceslsaus (Vaclvav) IV, a really important guy. Prague had a golden age when his father and him were ruling. Both were also the Holy Roman Emperor and made it their capital. This is when the famous Charles University was founded for example. But soon the situation will spin out of control. He was deposed as Emperor a few years ago. Disputes about religion, nationality, and plain old factionalism are debstabilizing the kingdom and he is barely holding on to power. His death in 1419 will be the start of the Hussite Wars.

A Hussite wagenburg. Wagons were lashed together into a defensive wall and defended by guys with crossbows and guns. Apparently it was a pretty effective tactic because they repeatedly defeated the combined forces of all of Europe.

(One part of the game that never ended up getting implemented but still has vestigial traces of it in the data files is the Hussites. They're suspicious of you because you're German, but if you can talk them down from violence they'll warn you about the Knights Templar. I guess we're all on the same side after all. The game's designer told me that there was supposed to be a lot more regional content like this but they didn't have enough time to include much of it, so the whole game world is pretty much based on the mythology of western Germany between the Rhine and the Elbe. It's too bad. There's so much more you could do with this setting.)

Anyway, the Emperor's aides at least consider giving me an audience before telling me to frick off. I guess at 123 fame ("slight reputation") it's hard to get a face to face meeting with one of the most important people in the world.

After a lot of grinding I get, I dunno, maybe 100 florins from quests and selling dead people's armor. Back to Dresden. It's enough to finally get everyone fully fitted with 34-quality chainmail. Nathan is even strong enough (barely) to wear partial plate armor without encumbrance penalties, at least if he's not wounded. I've got some backup armor in case ours gets burned up again.

We can carry that around because while Darklands has harsh penalties for weighing down your people with equipment too heavy for them in battle, outside of combat you can carry as much as you want. I routinely end up carrying around 30 sets of armor after a jaunt through the countryside killing a few people as I go along. It might seem surprising that this is allowed given the extreme attention to detail and realism in other parts of the game, down to measuring the time of day using medieval units instead of hours. But I'm not complaining.

Compare it to Bethesda games. In Bethesda games I spend probably 1/3 of my time either hauling loot back to the store to sell or deciding which loot is worth picking up. And of course you can't just go directly to the store. You go to the city and then walk down the same goddarn street you have a million times before to go to the store. Why? What in God's name would justify wasting my time like that? Why can't I just walk up to a city and immediately access the trading screen? This isn't cutting edge technology. Betrayal at Krondor came out a year after this. In that when you reach a city it switches from 3D mode to a picture of the city and you just click on the shop and bam, you're there. Why can't that evil little leprechaun Todd Howard do the same for us 30 years later?

Meta

Anyway, I think we're ready for the Fortress Monastery now. TBQH it's been many years since I actually played the game to this point. (It's taken me something like 50 hours to get this far.) So I can't remember how tough the Monastery is, but I believe it's supposed to be mid-game content.

There's a couple big mid-game quests that I wanted to show you first, but they only spawned in distant places like Aachen, so if I tried to go there it would probably have disappeared by the time I got there. I guess I'll do those after the Monastery.

BTW I am playing pretty much optimally here using every trick I know. I'm trying to go into everything way overpowered because if I lose it means I have to savescum and that wastes a lot of time. There's a lot of stuff that I'm skipping over because the game has so much content and so many features that I'm afraid I'd die of old age before I got to the end. My plan is that after I win I'll go back and show you this stuff, at least if @kaamrev badgers me enough.

Fun fact: David Bowie did not, in fact, have heterochromia from birth. One of his irises was permanently dilated, giving the impression that it was a different color, due to an injury suffered as a teenager during a fight with his friend and 1960's bandmate George Underwood over a girl. The band was called "Davie Jones and the King Bees" and George was the lead guitarist. He was also a Beta orbiter around some chick and he, stupidly, introduced her to the band's singer David Jones (Bowie's real name- he had to change it so as not to be confused with Davy Jones from the Monkees). That very night Diamond Dave fricked this girl very loudly in the room above where George was sleeping. George, who has assumed that nice girls didn't do such things, seethed all night and punched David when he came downstairs the next day.

There's a lesson here for all of us.

• it's been cold in the domicile. He took off his outerware while cooking, but then he got too fricking cold. He's been getting into brushing his teeth lately. He then describes how the proteins and enzymes and shit causing him to warm back up cause feelings of melancholy and shit because there's not enough enzymes left to produce dopamine

• 0:50 He shows off his pokemon shirt . It came with another t-shirt that was like brain break

• 1:30 He asked in the fam chat what their favorite pokemons were. Mum doesn't know and jinxsisters didn't respond.

• 1:55 Actual facts, Jinxthinker played pokemon in the past but it didn't produce orgasmic feelings because they're animals. Fact is Jinxthinker is highly skilled at all video games

• 2:20 He relapsed on Elden Ring for 15 minutes . He had the revelation that people who think they're good are often playing with high latency and would get r*ped on low latency.

• 2:45 He was watching an EU IV stream and the streamer's country was being r*ped.

• 3:00 He found a libertarian guy (www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-48830780) with a foot fetishist who went to the cinema to touch children. He's Hitler's favorite Nazi. We examine his ghostly apparition and disfigured mouth/nose. He also has a cochlear implant because he's deaf. Dumbo might be significant.

• 4:30 Jinxthinker has never delved into foot fetishism, it's on the same level as libertarianism.

• 5:00 Goes into the genealogy of libertarianism/western civilization. This is somehow connected to foot fetishism and Dumbo.

• 6:00 Explains how you can't frick a foot. Discusses breast size.

• 7:05 More AI pictures, with goth woman licking feet as an experiment. It's okay if the woman is being humiliated and the foot isn't the essential sexual/arousing element.

• 7:55 Choses a song so he can practice being a good singer. Needs to change the song because this is too hardcore; he's also good at rapping.

• 8:40-10:50 Changes the song finally. It's the singer that sounds like he has a speech impediment and drones that he likes.

• 10:50 it's okay to jerk off to aliens if they're female and have a vagina, right.

• 11:00 He talks like a southerner about father time. People age in a chronological fashion. Here's the deal, children are ugly but they become better like a caterpillar -> butterfly transformation. This makes libertarians angry when father time turns children to adults. This is how you know libertarians are r-slurred, because you can love to adult women your whole life.

• 13:10 One of the badass characters on Lost smokes, but Jinxmother says jinxthinker isn't allowed to smoke. Oh well.

• 13:40 Shows off his empty Monster cans. Talks about how it's cool to put the empties in your bed under the duvet when you're sleeping and crush them in your bed. (This reminded me of Jimmy on King of the Hill who wants to smash the cans)

• 14:00 Goes back to Father Time beating libertarians without missing a beat. He heard someone talking about ??? and it's r-slurred; somehow this is related to selling coke in Hogwarts like Breaking Bad

!jinxthinkers If any of you can figure out what that last minute was about, that would be great.
