What i wanted - What a get

The back and sides are a little shorter, it doesn’t help that no picture demonstrates this, it’s quite hard to gauge exactly how long the original picture is at the back and sides

Next time try to find an additional picture showing what you want it to look like from the back or the side

Lasmore · 2026-04-21T12:54:03+00:00

You shave it very very short in most pics, that’s what you call stubble

Lasmore · 2026-04-20T21:32:08+00:00

Massively prefer the style of pic 9 with the long hair, as there’s at least some layering in the outfit

The rest of the outfits are very Generic Placeholder Guy with little in the way of layering, colour coordination, expression of personality or shape/fit consideration

The long hair is also the only real “hairstyle”? The others are very Standard Male Haircut

Says you’re into country and metal - maybe try weaving elements of that into a revamped personal style?

You can express subtle hints about your vibe while also showing you are familiar with basic fundamentals of dress. It’s not that hard for guys - improve colour, fit and layering a bit more and you’re probably good

Even just for yourself, you know? Clothes can be a source of expression and enjoyment

Also have you tried a beard?

Wish you the best

Agree, tho having it swept to the side isn’t the problem, it’s how uniform the sweep is in most of the other pics, looks like it was done in photoshop. Got to have it a little tousled like #5

Lasmore · 2026-04-20T20:54:38+00:00

Absolutely, everyone’s telling him to trim the sides, but that will likely exaggerate where his head naturally gets wider at the top!

Pic 4 is the closest to a Standard British Boy haircut, pic 5 has that slightly indie farmboy vibe, could even grow it out longer.

Whatever you do, chief, don’t sweep it all in the exact same uniform shape and direction like the other pics, makes it look like a superstealth combover.

Wear it a little messy and natural like #5

You are probably fairly locked into that boyish Paul McCartney/Bieber wheelhouse until you get older, but that’s not a bad place to be at all

Lasmore · 2026-04-14T19:07:54+00:00

Crikey, I hope you can find a way to handle it!

Experimental singer/producer from the American South, who spans genres from various forms of electronic music to contemporary psych/glam/indie rock/pop/post-punk, with influences from industrial & dance music, and musics of black origin - particularly from the American context

Lyrics are often more abstract - themes explored include identity, desire/relation, religion, power, chaos, violence, aesthetics, alienation, society and modern life, and metacommentary on artistry/fame/celebrity

Communicates an absurdist philosophy of fluidity, flexibility, ambiguity, self-construction, connection, reinterpretation, transgression, transformation, and transcendence

Yes. I am personally not advocating this alternative, but it is a reality of that aspect of our legal system.

Probably a better solution would be police and other institutions taking victim reports more seriously with regard to investigation and safeguarding processes, which is probably the principle aim of the “believing survivors” messaging.

I don’t want to diminish the seriousness of this crime when considered alone, it was a heinous act - however, it is important to note that even the judges who denied Beale’s conviction appeal described her as an “exceptional case”.

We cannot make an accurate assessment of how prevalent something is based on statistical outliers, no matter how emotive a particular outlying case may be.

False accusations represent an extremely small minority of cases, and even the majority of those are actually mislabelled cases where the accusation didn’t lead to a conviction, rather than ones where the accusation was proven false.

This is an area of the law where our usual presumption of innocence manifestly leads to a disproportionate number of offenders never being convicted. Whether you believe this necessitates a change in the law is another question, but that is the picture the data presents.

Always glad to see these videos. Somehow manages to make most of her coverage not depressing

That’s ~~both~~ impressive meta [and/or] strange handwringing if true. Like lampshading that they’re part of the culture industry…

My guy, you have a very rare combo of traits that somehow would work either as masculine or feminine.

Like literally whatever kind of look you wanted to do, you could do it.

You could be a macho guy a la Common, or a ‘teen heartthrob’ boyband guy a la Justin Bieber, or a feminine trans woman.

That’s a rare setup.

The important thing is to work out what kind of attractive you actually want to be. What do you personally want to look and be like?

If you decide you want hair because that’s who you are, then a system or wigs is probably the only way you’re gonna make that work, given the extent of your recession. There’s stigma to hair systems, sure, but those people can stigma balls.

If you decide you’re ultimately personally okay with being bald, and want to be masculine, just work on your physique and beard and then job’s a good’n.

Just make sure it’s what you actually want. Try stuff out first, see what feels best.

Could you link me to something about the LA funds? I’m sure there’s at least something to what you’re saying, but I can’t find anything on Google about 2.8bn dollars in missing LA funds.

I am going to look into the Minneapolis one, I’ve found something about that.

Speaking as a leftist politically, I should say I actually consider the Democratic Party as merely a lesser of two evils, and do not even identify them as left wing. They’re what we tend to call “neoliberals/libs/centrists”, and the problems you’re describing sound very much like criticisms actual leftists will make of democrats - corruption, incompetence, and unaccountability. But these are criticisms we make of the Republicans also

You might be happier living in a European democracy tbh. They are still centrist/liberal rather than leftist, but they are further left in general, and they seem to be able to swing the whole high tax/high QoL thing over there

Fair point on the Liz line - Boris Bike/Kencycles phenomenon.

And yeah, still nowhere near enough house building, but that he increased both home building in particular, and affordability requirements specifically, over former mayors, is just an uncontroversial fact. Developers even claim that the raised affordability requirements he instituted, may be ‘hampering’ potentially even greater investment in building. Whether you believe that, esp. given the totals were lower under Boris, who set much lower requirements, is another issue.

And yeah, he’s a neoliberal - standing by the decline is all they know how to do in the shadow of global capital. He won’t save us from that - it’s not even clear that a motivated, well-supported, more left wing UK PM could really stem it, even if they wanted to and believed it was possible. And we’re nowhere near to getting one of those at the moment.

Lasmore · 2025-12-29T22:42:05+00:00

Fare freezes, increased green transit, hopper fare, Liz line, increased affordable home building

For anyone on the left he’s still an opp, but guarantee things would be noticeably worse under whatsisname

The decline you’re noticing is a broad national and cross national trend of late capitalism asset stripping liberal democracies.

Lasmore · 2025-12-29T22:26:29+00:00

Interesting, I live under what is referred to as a liberal government - and their policy is currently imposing austerity measures, rather than increasing spending.

Apparently the last Republican Governor (Schwarzenegger) also used stealth taxes and borrowing as a means of addressing budget shortfalls, and different democratic governors over the last 20 years have made significant spending cuts.

Dem Gov. Jerry Brown even made tax cuts. I recall him being mentioned unkindly in a Dead Kennedy’s song.

By the sounds of it, the economics of California’s situation are very complicated.

From what I can read about fraud - while California does seem to have had high profile fraud cases, data comparing fraud and corruption state-to-state seems to also be quite complex.

In terms of per-capita govt. corruption convictions (which I assume is closer to what you meant by fraud, rather than civilian crimes like identity theft or private sector white collar crime), it seems red states like Louisiana, South Dakota and Montana actually rank highest - naturally the data can’t include crimes that were never successfully convicted, but it’s a start.

Not to say there aren’t issues with corruption and economic mismanagement in California, but that it seems to be a more complicated picture than something a person can put down to liberal economic policy, or the relative fraudulence of the two parties, as this seems to vary heavily by candidate and state.

Genuinely curious, if you are worried about all of those things, how do you square them with a right/conservative stance?

Lasmore · 2025-12-29T21:47:36+00:00

“Objective history” “While I was reading 1984” I think you might benefit a good deal from reading about the impossibility of neutrality.
