Anon wonders what went wrong

Afaik, most ED is caused by being out of shape. The penis is basically a blood balloon, and your heart has to work hard to keep it inflated. If you aren't doing any sort of cardio, you can fall below that threshold. Luckily, that means with some cardio, most of the time it can be reversed

It's actually been this way for a while. The top 10% of American earners do half of all consumer spending. A massive amount of the economy has shifted to reflect this. Businesses are often targeting business to business sales rather than business to customer. Pay to win video games use free players as content for whales to play through. And if you're selling physical goods, you're probably either doing it as cheaply as possible, or absolutely gouging the assholes you're selling to (think ikea vs Kohler's premium brand, for which a lamp costs 5 figures and the website doesn't gave prices listed).

Can you imagine at 32 being hit with so much rizz from a 97 year old that you'd be down to clown, only for them to die inside of you? Either grandpa was the most charming motherfucker of all time or that grocery clerk was at a dark place in life.

Ehhhh, we had a perception as the big damn heroes after tipping the scales in WW2 and then with the founding of the UN, being the only member state that wasn't devastated by WW2, positioning us as the de facto enforcer. There was some very limited good work done in that context that got good press in Europe. But we were also overthrowing democratic south American nations nonstop during that time... And everything since....

There have been times that others thought we were the good guys, but they were probably just wrong.

I'm surprised nobody is bringing up Rising of the Shield hero here. Bro buys slave children which, while still belonging to him and having magic that forces them to obey his commands, develop feelings for him, presumably due to Stockholm syndrome.

Reminds me of that French film where the grandpa brings in his favorite prostitute to family dinner one night. "Sooner or later my heart will give out while fucking her, so you were going to find out eventually either way. Better you know now."

Listen, Pythagoras gives us the hands down best way to tell intelligent life visiting earth that we're intelligent. Drawing a right triangle and marking the sides with 3 dots, 4 dots, and 5 dots immediately demonstrates that we are a sapient species that has developed mathematics with no need for a device or language. Of course, we're all carrying devices these days, so maybe that's no longer relevant.
