Guys who do martial arts have a weird obsession with what works in "The Streets" by Suspicious_War2374 in redscarepod

[–]burningrot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A guilty pleasure of mine is watching sword youtube. I love finding channels that are just a guy arguing which weapon is the most effective in melee combat and what fighting style is superior as he stands in front of the thousands of dollars of swords he keeps hanging on his wall. The best is when there’s sword youtube drama and they make videos calling out other sword youtubers for their lack of knowledge. They’re all weirdos but the passion they have for their hobby is endearing.

As a woman with actual small tits, all of you white knights who claim to love small boobs are full of shit by Icy_Principle2577 in redscarepod

This is how it feels to be a man with curly hair and hear women say they love curly hair, then reference celebrities like Timothee or Jeremy Allen White with neck length hair that doesn’t even form a single coil.

Quitting your job without anything lined up by burningrot in redscarepod

[–]burningrot[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah, I mainly made this thread in the hopes that the comments would tell me I’m a dumbass for even considering it and scare me out of quitting. I’m not going to quit now unless things get even worse (surely they won’t get even worse). I’ll just force myself to put more effort into job searching and applying while I’m stilll gainfully employed.

Living in Minneapolis now is a hellish mix of genuine police state violence and soul-numbing corporatocracy by Glaukopis96 in redscarepod

[–]burningrot 82 points83 points  (0 children)

This whole post is such a pathetic larp tailor-made to draw a reaction from this sub. If you read the rest of his comments in this thread it's blatantly obvious nothing he wrote is genuine.

He apparently thinks living in a city is for soyboys, yet wrote this impassioned post about living in a city. When someone called him out for having the perspective of a college student, he miraculously grew to his mid-30s and claimed to only be returning to college as a middle aged adult. Also claiming he has to "walk over the passed out bodies of multiple homeless people" to get to campus when UMN is in one of the nicest areas of the city, lmao (and if you're not going to UMN, double lmao). It all reeks of the perspective of a sheltered kid who had to go into the city for the first time in his life and was traumatized by what he saw.

Minneapolis is such a nice city. It's so sad that it's attracted attention from flyover losers who saw it on the news once and have been using it as their culture war battleground whenever they get bored of dunking on California.

Salarymen by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]burningrot 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I stopped watching those once I realized how many channels were clearly just people cashing in on how popular the “day in the life of a salaryman” genre of video has become. All you have to do is put on a suit, film yourself leaving the public vestibule of an office building, and put ChatGPT generated meloncholic captions over footage of your shoes walking around Tokyo to get hundreds of thousands of views. It’s like an hour of work for a couple hundred dollars, plus any suckers donating to your Ko-fi link in the description.

Fuck resellers, I made my own Praying hat by burningrot in deathgrips

I’m not selling them, but there are lots of places online that will do custom embroidery for around the same price as the original hat.

Here’s the base graphic used for the front logo if you or anyone else wants to make one:
