I find Mastodon very stuffy and boring, is there a way to shake up my feed? I feel like I’m missing something about how the app works.

These issues are so big, therapy isn’t gonna be viable. Men have specific and painful societal issues. In the longterm, we need to change the way we socialize boys. The way we talk about expectations of their role, the way we talk about patriarchy and masculinity. There’s a lot of toxic masculinity, and far too little positive masculinity. Boys need far better role models than they currently have (youtubers? music artists - rappers? politicians?). Men of all ages need more third places to make friends, and date without apps that are frankly designed to make insecure men feel less valuable than women.

Would men be open to therapy? Maybe, but not all of them need it. Most men can point exactly towards what in society is peeving them. The system needs to change, rather than the individual.

Being called a liberal is insulting enough. Most liberals will identify as progressives.

Wish this was my experience, just reading silly haha funny egg memes as a “cis male” until I started to understand why I relate It is praxis to make the absolute funniest egg memes possible. Increase the surface area of the net to catch all reppers, closeted, and confused so they can put 2 and 2 together.

First the radical left said the bathrooms don’t need genders. Now the left says bathrooms don’t need walls. When will they stop?

NYdailynews on current day stop and frisk

NYPD self-reporting ctime stats for July

It’s kinda wild after all of this we still have stop and frisk in 2023. A quarter of all stops are unconstitutional. Undoubtedly certain neighborhoods are being over-policed and are even praised for their “compliance” results.

But cops are recordinf many more unique datapoints and community overwatch.

These stupid settings ruin the discrete activity of getting off. There should be a fucking “extreme” switch that has these in it so I don’t make my vibrator loud as fuck on accident.
