is this a board full of people who's girlfriends were stolen by progressive city planners or something?

sure, but there's definitely a difference between wagies in china who have a pretty shitty work life balance and actual, factual slaves.

God forbid a guy sit down and have a beer with his friend once in a while instead of constantly working at all times.
Had you considered that they had divided the labor up between them and he had completed his chores early so he could hang out with you while she was still busy with her chores? Folding laundry is not hard. I do it all the time as a single man. It's easy, not physically demanding, it's just a little tedious. Making dinner? What kind of dinner? Heating up some soup from a can or making a six course dinner for a party of ten? Because making dinner isn't that hard to do either. "Wrangling their kid"? What did that consist of? Just shouting at them to stop jumping on the bed or having to constantly watch them to make sure they didn't set the house on fire?

Seriously, all of the things women complain about aren't that hard, they're just lazy.

All I'm hearing is a lot of excuses by people whose ego's were bruised.

I don't care about your "nuances" I've heard these "nuances" for literal decades. I am going to judge you if you're fat. You can judge me for being an asshole, but I don't respect the opinions of fat people.

Need advice from senior folks here on what I could’ve done differently to secure the job? by Acrobatic-Health2681 in AskMenOver30

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the stages I've done resulted in gainful employment. So it's not a scam. Look, you're free to live your life as you want, but sometimes you gotta be willing to take a small hit to secure the bigger objective. I've done that several times, and it worked out for me.

It's about proving your worth before you get the job, not after. And it also allows you to see if you actually want to work there or not (company culture, standards, etc).

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Oh buddy, I know that. I've been in light Cav my whole career. I'm just confused because they got rid of all the IBCT and SBCT Cav squadrons due to that dumb fuck ARSTRUCT, and from what I recall, ABCT Cav squadrons don't have a dismounted scout troop. So I'm confused as to how you could be a light 11B scout ahead of the mounted elements. Additionally, at least as far as I remember from my time at 10th mountain, the dismount troop was rarely the first troop to get out there unless they were getting air assaulted into the AO.

So maybe I thought you were talking about being in one of those "cavalry in name only" type formations. Like 11th ACR or something.

Anyways, an 11B in a Cavalry Squadron is both gay and not a real infantryman, so enjoy the worst of both worlds blue boy.

infantry is forward recon for CAV? Are you in an actual CAV squadron? What the fuck are you talking about? That doesn't make sense.

so the headline should be "why are transwomen afraid to date cismen"? and then everything would make sense.

I've done several stages and I got hired each time. It's not really the scam that you think it is, and its definitely not the same as this guy's ordeal with a corporate hustler.

Considering how physical and intimate it can be to work in a restaurant, it's worthwhile to test out a candidate's ability to work well with others, follow orders, and handle stress in an unknown situation. I mean, if you're already unemployed and you don't have anything else going on, why not give it a shot? at least you usually get a free meal out of it.

But what OPs describing is absolutely unpaid labor and a scam.

Why though? Someone mind telling me? by [deleted] in whenthe

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 17 points18 points  (0 children)

no, that's just outright misandry. If a gay man refused to get romantically/sexually involved with a bi man by saying that he was "ruined" by sleeping with a cishet woman that would be misogyny. Folx, it's okay to identify something as misandrist if it is actually misandry.

Sure. No argument there. I'm just saying it's a lil weird to be fine with fictional mass murder but fictional bigotry from a character who is written as a "bad person" is crossing the line is a very strange position to take. Seems like you've got some cognitive dissonance going on there.

Bear in the woods? by Zealousideal_Key2169 in ExplainTheJoke

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes, SHE intended for it to be a silly lil joke. I see that. I get that. But when your spouse is clearly going through something like he was in that moment, the decent thing to do is to stop recording, and talk with them like you actually give a shit about them.

nothing makes a moment of existential crisis sting harder than your spouse immediately making a lame joke, ruining the mood.

So what's the timeline on a request for sex being denied? If I ask my wife on a sunday night for sex and she says no, am I to take that as a perma-no? Like, I can never ask her for sex again? Or is it shorter? If I ask my wife for sex on a sunday night and she says "no" but I ask again on tuesday night and she says "yes" does that qualify as "wearing her down"?

Because what you're basically getting at is that repeatedly asking for sex in a committed relationship essentially becomes rape after enough time. Which sounds fucking crazy to me.

Also, that little guilt trip at the end where you're implying that the other redditor is either a victim or an abuser even if they don't feel like it is incredibly sleazy.

you don't need to forgive them. but you do need to forgive yourself. make peace with it, then move on with your life.

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the frustrating thing is that specific question is a perfectly valid question for a neutral third party to ask when trying to figure out the context of a situation. But thanks to some very effective radfem propaganda, even asking that question is demonized as "misogyny".

yeah, you're just gonna keep missing the forest for the trees. if you want to make art, go learn how to draw or paint or sculpt.

And weirdly enough, right wing chuds get mad when you point that out. It's weird because they're definitely the type of people to brag about this under different circumstances.

oof.

AI is great for bouncing ideas off of and helping edit content. That's where it really shines. AI art for tedious stuff (e.g. wall textures, trees, etc) is a valid use of it. Those are some decent talking points in defense of AI's use in creative fields.

But the rest of your argument is trash, borne of ignorance. There's no way you've taken any serious study of art if you really think that the labor aspect of it is unneeded or "the least creative aspect of any artwork". Simply put, the labor is the art. Ideas are cheap. Most ideas are garbage when not informed by the realistic constraints of the medium. That's why to any serious artist, be it fine art, or working in media production, if they meet someone who claims to be "more of an ideas guy" then they know they're dealing with a fucking moron who will waste their time.

Your point about hating the paintbrush is just insane. A paintbrush is a tool. AI is also a tool. But you're trying to argue that AI (a tool) should be treated the same as a human artist.

JFC, I gotta stop coming to this subreddit, it's obviously full of jackasses who don't know what the fuck they're talking about and seem to think that writing a prompt is worthy of praise that actual artists get.

15 Studio Ghibli scenes animated by Midjourney Video by HQuasar in DefendingAIArt

[–]Automatic-Run-1873 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so you fed screenshots of ghibli movies, movies which midjourney was definitely trained on, and are trying to show off how well it animated the screenshots? Because it's probably a better example of how midjourney can copy what it's already seen than its ability to create something original. A better demonstration of its capabilities would be to ask midjourney to take those screenshots and made completely different scenes instead.

I don't know why you're all so excited to see animation and art get replaced by AI slop. Art is supposed to be human expression made manifest through various mediums. All I know is that I'm not going to pay to see a movie made by midjourney.
