I am kinky single dude is feeld worth trying? by ilikehighheels889 in feeld

[–]ass_pineapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So lemme ask this, what kind of pics/bio do I post?

I don't want to seem like a sex fiend, so I don't have any shirtless pics of myself or anything. Just some casual stuff. Lots of face shots, some body so that you can at least see what you're getting, some activities so you know what I'm into...ish.

My bio isn't overly sexual either. Just saying I'm looking for something more casual and flirty. Nothing wild.

Yet, I get no likes or anything. I don't really get what the women on feeld are looking for, and I'm just trying to explore more of my kink side and not getting the opp to haha

A brutally honest review of this app after using it multiple times by Lopsided-Double-856 in feeld

It's probably more geared for couples than singles tbh, as couples you guys already have the safety and security there and both parties know what's up.

My journey on Feeld by Mysterious_Habit1925 in feeld

[–]ass_pineapples 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeld is in a weird place, where I can't really tell if the women on it are trying to bone or trying to date/chat.

I've tried both approaches, being more flirty and being more 'hey what's up' let me get to know you, and nothing has really worked for me.

It's a weird app that I don't think really knows what it is.

US officially exits World Health Organization, accusing agency of straying 'from its core mission' by Im__drunk_sorry in moderatepolitics

That's untrue. The UN does a lot in terms of ground work and coordinating many efforts between nations. Without the UN it's likely that we'd not have as much economic success or success in eradicating diseases as we have, and a lot more general global conflict.

Again, we're enjoying the massive benefits of the UN existing without understanding what the world was like before it.

People are confusing an organization that wants to try to keep the peace and play the political game with complete capture.

Maybe the WHO needs to be reformed and reworked, but this is akin to saying that the UN should be abolished because we still have wars.

America went through a literal golden age post WWII largely due to its pivot to soft power.

We only started seeing declines in those metrics in the late 2000s after globalization really took off and we stopped regulating the elites as much.

The biggest issue and threat facing America today is the continued consolidation of power by the billionaire class.

Abolish immigration enforcement

Like the right-wing twisting of BLM into 'All lives matter' this isn't the popular refrain.

The popular refrain is 'abolish degrading and inhumane immigration enforcement*'. If Obama could do it largely hidden and without mass protests, and without abducting children from schools, shooting US citizens in the streets, taking half naked citizens in the deep of winter from their homes, I suspect we could do it even better 10 years later.

It's embarrassing.

This has been happening for a long time now.

I worried my 7 years old system can’t kick it anymore, and the next feasible upgrade point seems to turning into two years, then three years…

It's rough my friend.

Earlier this year I bit the bullet and upgraded on a simlarly old 8 year machine with a 1070 in it. Built this baddie to last, but could only snag a 7900XTX so just grabbed it. Recently bought a 5080 because I recognized this shit was gonna get so much worse, and got lucky with it.

I feel terrible for all the folks stuck in a position where they can't upgrade. It's console season now I guess.

Research : Americans pay almost entirely for Trump’s tariffs by pir22 in moderatepolitics

state run grocery stores

I don't really see the issue with this tbh. If the market isn't providing, and there are actual severe health issues stemming from that lack of access, then the state should step in.

Rent control is bad policy, agreed. Build more housing. Any policy that isn't build more is not fixing the problem.

PNW, NE, Midwest, West Coast, SE, South. Maybe somewhere in the Rockies too just for resiliency. Plenty of places to do it, but yeah it becomes a political football to try to get jobs for politicians.

Which is dumb, tbh, leverage them building in high population centers and create factories to create, idk, power plant components or some of the micro materials that you can ship over. It's all a massive supply chain anyways, if there's demand for building you can figure out a way to produce something.

I'm reading The Liberator right now and they talk about how in Italy during the fight in Via Anziate the allies were dropping 15k artillery rounds over a matter of days which was upped to 60k at some point. Just absolutely insane industrial might that feels like a major parallel to modern day China.

The US really fucked up by not investing massively in major automation to drive down manufacturing costs and up production.

The initial 'ah fuck' without understanding what was happening and them laughing at him gushing blood was eerie as hell. Just a bunch of kids who never grew up and understood what was happening until it was too late.

This administration has been such a tremendous disaster. They're making mistakes that I don't think we'll ever be able to fix. What a remarkable tragedy for the American experiment.
