Is this an age thing or a rona thing?

The Corona thing will pass. We will get an annual shot, treatment options will develop and people dying or getting Long Covid will become rare.

It's more of an age thing.

What permanent solution? Put the dog down?

That's the rather cruel joke there.

The ATF is known for shooting dogs when they conduct raids. They've shot dogs that stood there wagging their tails at them and then the incident at Ruby Ridge.



Just look at the comment section of this Tweet. It's peak internet.

Among certain cultures its common even among the more educated and Westernized among them. Among Pakistanis I see more than a few couples with an age gap of about ten years (always with the guy being older of course) and these guys tend to get married in their early 30s. In some cases its clearly an arranged marriage but not in others. They're very family oriented which means that all the cousins are pretty close to one another so you can get mingling between cousins of different ages. That can lead to an older guy being introduced to a younger girl through the friend circle of a younger female cousin.

I understand why some people find that odd, personally I am not really acculturated into that kind of thing so even to me it is somewhat odd. But I think that's completely different from some dude in his late 20s prowling house parties where he knows there are high school girls. These Pakistanis I know are unsurprisingly devout Muslims so its not like these older guys are out here trying to find a drunk 19 year old to bang, they want to get married.

The general path seems to be that they focus intensely on their studies and career and barely think about romance. Through their studies(sometimes undergrad but usually grad school) they might another South Asian Muslim and get along well enough to consider marriage. The girls rarely make it out without some dude snatching them up but for the guys if they get out of grad school without getting married then that's when they might end up getting married to a girl like ten years younger, sometimes even from the Old Country.

I'm hoping to get my daughters married off young, and my main mission in their lives is to make sure they marry well. That will be the most important building block of their lives, and we shouldn't neglect it.

I wish my parents married me off when I was like 22 or whatever but alas they're not really like that.

I always felt bad for the guys who had to go that route, but sometimes they end up with a hot wife about 8-12 years younger.
Your parents didn't marry you off at 22 cause they knew you were a KHYAR.

It was a blood-bath, shooting dogs ain't cool, cat's I might be able to turn a blind eye.
 
Does anyone know the rationale that conservatives have behind attempting to mock people who list their pronouns on Twitter or elsewhere?

"Rationale" is asking a lot. They see sex/gender as an obvious binary and any purported deviation from that binary as a delusion. Delusions are ridiculous and/or threatening and deserve to be mocked and shamed. End of thought process.

It's mental illness, and everyone knows that the proper medical and social treatment for mental illness is childish derision.

Perhaps. Just wild how much I see random chuds literally saying "Pronouns in bio lmao"

And they have the nerve to call anyone left of GWB "NPCs".
