Please explain the "no one is interested in the women that focused on their careers".
You only had to read the next few words, letting their prime breeding years pass them by. Chinese men want to get married to start families, have children, well child singular in most cases. The women themselves also want to date up, men with more money than them, and those men are not interested in women in their 40s.
Also, what is your solution....and don't tell me a IRL recreation of "The Handmaid's Tale"
HMT is incredibly stupid. They kill breeding females and have some dumb religious fertilization ritual.

As for potential solutions, either a radical cultural shift, which is unlikely to happen without near complete collapse, or governments and corporations can breed and raise their own next generation in a boarding school-like environment. Train and indoctrinate as required.

We can also just let it rot and not bother. Either way, I'll be long gone before it affects me.

As the graph shows, you don't wanna be number 2 or anything beyond the girl's first! Patriarchy is going down. RIP. Where's matriarchy? The Mosuo people have something called "walking marriages" where the girl stays with her family and the boy stays with his. He comes and visits her from dusk to dawn. The woman and her family take care of any child from their union. We have the hook-up culture already but we are missing matriarchy! Mosuo - Wikipedia

In their latest news:

"Bloodlines 2 will launch in October 2025 when the game meets the technical quality standards that you, our fans, rightfully expect and deserve. Please stay tuned for the game’s exact launch date." ~ 25 March
Yeah, I know, but with so many delays, forgive me if I don't believe in that.

All this political blah blah.

There's no point in arguing over a doomed planet and an already extinct race...the fact just hasn't caught up to us yet.

I've never seen such a waste of could be intellectual thought. And the worse thing about politics is they've been fucking it up for SO long, there is no right or wrong answer but there is a right or wrong example to use as every answer. Its like the old roman philisophical debates, who can pour more honey on their tongue because none of it is based on facts, just opinions about age old facts that are no longer relevent now, its always so what about when this peson did this or that person did that.

99 different countries, 98 of which most people have never visited, and mostly dead men.

There are much better ways to waste your brain, pretty much every one of them except drugs and booze.

I won't tell you not to do something here any more than I let people tell me.. but I have zero intention of ever entertaining the conversations again, and i'll never be interested. Just puttiing it out there...so don't mind me if I skip over the posts entirely and miss anything else that might be worth commenting on 🤷‍♂️

I only talk about the things that do interest me.

I'm still leaning towards something taking over. It's obvious the current culture isn't sustainable, but it's all cycles. Something else will follow. Unless there's no hope at all, I think humanity will eventually change.

Sure, nothing we say here will change anything. I only even discuss it at all because I find it interesting.

Everything eventually gets back to politics. Games are being removed from sale from Steam right now because Visa, MC etc. are refusing to process payments for things they don't like. So rather than be banned completely from these payment processing methods, Steam caved in and removed them from sale, even if you're paying some other way.

Stop killing games, also politics. Everything is politics. Some is culture. All of it as relevant or interesting as you find it to be.

This is gonna be one of the worst-reviewed games/DLC of all time.

This was so bad and broke so many things in Ark that player count dropped to 7k, the fact that they've let a studio that worked on Atlas do this DLC tells you a lot, who remembers Atlas? It was actually one of the first games I preordered and refunded :ROFLMAO:

On this we agree.

Not looking too gold on this part though.

Again, I respect your clear headed view of it all...not like some people who thought wars could be ended by selective hatred in an online community but this is the bottom line for me...I have no interest in things I'm forced to watch with no say in the matter 🤷‍♂️

If we can't affect the outcome we're just screaming at the sky. I have enough idiots in my vicinity to run lut of breath doing that...I cant be worried about a world away from myself
