It makes them feel like they are daddy pimp when the reality is the opposite. A woman is using twitch to simulate the dating experience, makeup to simulate the emotions of attraction, and using this to send false signals into the brains of lowly males who are desperate for that sort of attention. This triggers the “provide and protect” circuitry in the brain, causing them to fork out cash for a woman who will never benefit them anything at all in the slightest. You’re supposed to do that for a real, physical woman who actually cares about you as an individual, but these super betas are just lost and confused because the twitch experience is something evolution has never encountered before.
Oh yeah, for sure. Their desires tend to be a little bit different though. Men’s desires are typically physical. Women’s desires are usually emotional. Finances play heavily into stress and emotion in general so they tend to be into guys who are financially stable enough to flex it by taking them out on dates etc. A Billion Wicked Thoughts, a book by Google engineers, details that the most common porno search terms for men are anatomical in nature, while for women it’s “vampire”, “billionaire”, “werewolf”, etc. This reflects their emotional need to feel protected against the threats of the outside world, thus quelling their negative emotions, and want a man powerful enough to accomplish that. This is also why I think mental illness is on the rise especially in liberal women who have largely departed from the traditional male/female masculine/feminine role types. They date these beta males who don’t solve problems for them but rather create problems for them, and this causes their negative emotions to explode and that manifests in mental illness. This creates a catch-22 in their mind, because on one hand they want to be powerful and solve all the problems & have compassion for the weak people they are trying to take care of, but at the same time they don’t want all the stress and negative emotion that comes as part of that package & don’t want to be mean and dump their useless boyfriend. It would be a blow to their perceived compassion and perceived strength as an individual, which is unacceptable for someone who is currently feeling tons of negative emotion. So they are trapped.
So when I see “thirsty” women it is usually women who are extremely emotionally stressed, buried in real life problems, searching for a “werewolf billionaire” to come in and kick some serious butt.
society and parenting are to blame… why are parents of these young men allowing their sons to turn into lowly intellectuals?
A great tv show would be, a female streamer tells all her simps with a super happy face they are invited to live with her on a holiday island for 1 month (final day stream celebration). They all show up, and get all their stuff confiscated. She gets all excited and says to escape this island her simps must overcome many feats of strength and make their way towards the goal: fight wild animals, avoid poisonous food and traps, etc. only a handful reach the goal(the rest die) then she makes them the final group fight to death, winner gets to be with her. after they all kill each other, she laughs in the final simps face and says thanks for your money and entertainment then she jumps in her helicopter and leaves the island… leaving the last guy to question his own sanity.
They are probably lonely young adults either in college or having freshly moved out on their own.
I mean that’s basically what she’s doing. She’s sucking resources out of their lives and pitting them against one another. It’s a competition to provide the biggest donation which in turn nets the best reaction from her. To provoke these donations she acts all flirtatious with them in return for their donation. This is literally what a woman IRL would do if you were dating her and helping her out with her problems. This is how it works. These losers are just getting sucked into helping someone out when there is a 100% chance their investment is entirely wasted. If it’s an IRL woman and you fix her car, you get a hug, maybe a kiss, she will cook dinner for you and act all cutesy towards you all night long, and she will come back to you in the future to elicit your help. This can evolve into a real relationship. The twitch experience exploits the same mechanics to mass-mine resources from lowly males who think they are pursuing something real but in reality are just being duped. In my opinion it’s psychotic frankly.
I heard years ago that she already has one and that it was fairly explicit. Not sure what fairly explicit means but yeah.
I mean, I’ve seen a fair few evolutionary psychology explanations for dating preferences and what not but it just doesn’t seem to fit as neatly with reality as I’d like. Girls seem to care more about looks and charisma than anything. Though, I’ve only ever really had experience with them like that when I was younger so maybe it’s different as they age, but there’s still a few examples I can think of where that’s still just not true.
Nothing ever will. As the snake oil salesman Jordan Peterson says, “… although, it could be much more laterally stratified than that.” AKA there is a correlation but so much scattering it isn’t a perfect predictor.
It depends on the age and also their wealth. Younger ones tend to care less about real world things, like paying the bills, although some do have a fetish for older guys which is a separate phenomena. Wealthy ones also have less care for the practical aspect of the marriage to a large degree although they still care about a man’s ability to maintain status since wealthy people care a lot about reputation. If they have a choice between a rich dunce and a rich doctor they will go with the rich doctor the majority of the time. The less wealthy and more vulnerable class will almost certainly settle for literally any man who is willing to care for them regardless of any other factor. More importantly, they judge a man’s ability to scale the social ladder and not necessarily where he is currently. So if they think you have lots of potential, they can settle for that. That’s why you get these chicks marrying dunces that pick a guitar thinking they will be the next George Straight but in reality make poverty wages right up until the divorce (the financial stress and emotional stress created from the financial stress being the motivating factor behind the divorce). This is also one of the reasons why chicks tend to prefer dicks. Being aggressive and assertive is a decent predictor for future success although being overly aggressive is not which is why they get stuck in abusive relationships. A low IQ aggressive male will only spin his wheels in life generating huge frustration which combined with a proclivity for aggression is a recipe for domestic abuse. But this stuff shows up all over the place including how turned on they get at the idea of hyperbolic masculine caricatures like werewolves and vampires, e.g. powerful / aggressive beasts, such as the Twilight series.
Phenomena has been in occasional use as a singular since the early 18th century, as has the plural phenomenas. Our evidence shows that singular phenomena is primarily a speech form used by poets, critics, and professors, among others, but one that sometimes turns up in edited prose
Yes, it has been in “occasional use” by people who can’t speak English. Currently, “should of” is occasionally used as well. https://www.lexico.com/grammar/phenomenon-or-phenomena
The phenomena of poets, critics and professors using “phenomena” in singular form means I am in rather good company, does it not? If the grammar police wanted to cry about something, they’d go after my use of “got” or my preference for grammar which could easily be mistaken for sentence fragmentation due to my love of the words “because”, “ergo”, or phrases such as “that is.”
By the way, Merriam Webster is definitely wrong. The reason “phenomena” is used in singular form is to add emphasis. The ding dongs writing the dictionary need to grow a few brain cells because this is just pathetic. Isn’t it an interesting phenomena how the most inept amongst us must invariably be the ones in position of power? It’s the Dunning-Kruger effect at work. It’s probably one of the biggest sociological mechanisms in existence. Dunces who have no clue what they are talking about are always the ones to act out of confidence thinking they have the right answers when in reality they just have a rock for a brain and are too flippin’ stupid to know how wrong they are (that’s politics and middle management in a nutshell, by the way).
Ah look someone took the bait. The dictionary was agreeing with me, sweetie, I just took issue with how they didn’t agree with me enough. Grow a brain, please.
This is the brain damaged state of the SC2 pro scene. Here we have a “top” terran walking around with no combat shield and a single medivac, stimming his own marines to death, meanwhile the zerg already has fungal out. Of course, to the troglodytes, it’s the fungal’s fault that Clem lost. Rofl.
Yeah it was a dumb way to describe it. So here is my new view after some extra observation. Feel free to critique.
Influencer is becoming closer to the synonym of death. The Influencer’s trust of the audience is lower than ever before. The Influencer isolates oneself away, forever having to protect their privacy, playing video-games not for joy, but for content. Passing 20s, 30s, all the way beyond 40s… their youth fades, eyesight goes, and their family builds without them.
The Influencer streams 3-5 days a week playing and interacting with the mentally disabled, treats stalkers in chat as fake-best friends. The Influencer becomes addicted to social media and ends up justifying their misery based off how many likes, donos, and tips received.
Over time their health gets worse… the Influencer tries many things to fix it but nothing seems to work, forever spiraling downward playing the same miserable games, interacting with the same boring weirdos.
Does that really sound like the best profession ever? With a real job you meet sharp minded people who are down to earth and are trying to get through life same as you… Some make you laugh, teach you insightful things, others challenge you - an Influencer experiences none of this.
Sure many poor people envy Influencers, creating white noise around the subject. But if you have security, what is an Influencer anyway…
