      I’m not sure I’d call it “relaxing,” but It’s definitely easy mode.

      Of course, that’s why so many of the losers among us go off the right-wing/incel deep end: if you’re living on easy mode and you still manage to fail, you’ve got nobody to blame but yourself. But they can’t handle that either, so they go fucking insane desperately trying to find scapegoats.

        Yeah, the pressure to never show emotion, to always be strong and never ask for help, to try not to show the distress at being inherently distrusted because so many people who happen to share the same kind of chromosomes. Totally easy mode.

        Just because it’s less stressful than some other demographics doesn’t make it, in any way, easy. Just slightly less difficult.

      That’s awfully presumptuous. Maybe Adam over here is getting some dick on the side, you don’t know his life.
