  I think that’s a common thing in that community. A lot of them are pretty open and humble about it. I was surprised nobody on the left realized how close transgender community and the body building community actually are. They both share body dysmorphia and both use hormone replacement therapy to feel like themselves. I was really hoping to see one community stick up for the other but instead the right co-opted gym culture and people on the left alienated yet another community by attacking that culture at the same time the right co-opted them.

    This is the most interesting response I’ve read. Cheers.

  People might look at me and think why would anybody like to play so much Factorio. Or why does this guy keep going rock climbing when he’s already torn a tendon.

  People do things that they like to do regardless of what anybody else thinks or without some ulterior motive for it.

  Sure some people might have body issues and this is the result, but for the vast majority of people they’re doing what they enjoy and doing it for themselves.

  I worked at Apple and one thing that always stuck with me was their approach to Positive Intent, we assume that people are being honest and the best selves and so we assume that of people until proven otherwise. Someone cuts me up in traffic, oh well perhaps they’re in labour and heading to the A&E.

    I’m sorry to feed your addiction, but if you enjoy Factorio, give Dyson Sphere Program a shot. Again I apologize for any hours lost in advance.

    I completely agree with your comment; the idea that a total stranger would assume you play so much Factorio specifically based on just your looks is very funny to me. I imagine an individual just plastered in Factorio paraphernalia.

      I would imagine they have pale, waxy eyes with unkempt hair, sunken eyes, and constantly muttering to themselves about Factario things.

      Plus they would disappear for days on end.

  Maybe he enjoys working out, maybe he doesn’t mind taking steroids, maybe he wants to win body building or powerlifting competitions?

  People like you shit on men looking like that and then go into other posts and tell people who talk shit about obese/bulemic women’s bodies that they are misogynistic assholes.

  Quit being a hypocrite.

    I don’t talk shit about people who are obese or bulimic because that’s rarely a choice, more of a disorder (I didn’t misread you, I’m just clarifying). This guy spent huge amounts of time and effort to do this to himself. It’s not something I understand. But as I reflect, that’s also something like disordered thinking.

    I’m not a hypocrite, but you’re great at making assumptions about me.

      You might want to look into whether free will is something that really exists at all. Might humble you a little and stop you from judging people.

      Glad to see you can come to a realization of your own hypocrisy and acknowledge it through self reflection, not a lot of people can do this. Good on you kid.
