He was a contrarian edgelord who jacked off in public, you asswipes. He got exactly one (1) good own in at Plato and Alexander apiece, get over yourselves.

    When he was dying someone asked him what he wanted done with his body. He said “throw it over the walls”, the guy replied “but animals will eat it”, and he said “give me a stick, I’ll fight the animals off!”

    Thought that was a pretty good line. Also telling Alexander the Great to fuck off was pretty ballsy,

          Social information is encoded in how we dress and groom ourselves, no? This week I had one too many conversations with DSA members who all look like a certain blonde bearded internet personality that we try not to speak about on this site. There is a correlation.

            Uhhhhhh.

            On one hand, yes, this is true.

            On the other hand I hate how there seems to so much politicization around how men keep keep their facial hair. “Neckbeard”, “beardbro”, whatever. It’s dumb, facial hair is like normal. Most biological males had beards before the invention of modern razor shaving. When the fuck did it become a political statement to let your facial hair grow out?

                  Some folks can definitely make them work! Conversely, I stay clean shaven because if I grow my facial hair out I look like I'm starting a cult.

                    If you change your mind on the beard hit me up. I've been looking to start a cult and I need a bearded leader

              Don't get me wrong, I'm white-passing AMAB and I've got stubble too. But fair or not I don't think you can really deny that mid-length beard-having among young white men has become correlated with the Bernie lib-left. It's annoying but my own experiences, ar least, have borne it out pretty often.

              While I agree we shouldn't talk about him too much, I do want to say us being all "the who must not be named" about vaush is pretty damn lib and also lame.
