If you play by the rules while your enemy doesn’t, you’ll be destroyed. Machiavelli said as much. So USA’s traditional allies have to start playing dirty to survive.

Understandable, I also do things the difficult way in my hobbies.

You can also get pre-mixed stuff if all that is a hassle.
I got a wooden cutting board and a tube each of oil and some stuff that seals it, those have lasted for 8 years now maybe.
- Comment on How do you "feel" gender? 3 weeks ago:
Since I’m the privileged default of male at birth and comfortable being a man, I don’t have to be made to feel my gender too often.
Women and femmes get catcalled and harassed. I never have. Women get told to shut up subtly or not, and get their work stolen by men. I don’t. Enbys non-conforming people might get forced into the Man Box and asked “what are you?” I don’t get those questions. So I just get to go about my day not getting my gender shoved in my face.
That said, I’m fairly uncomfortable in highly-masculine situations. Like bros hanging out smelling like shit talking about cars and barbecue and tits. I like a lot of man-coded stuff though, like lifting weights and blasting heavy metal. I also like “softer” stuff like birdwatching and fashion (tho mostly men’s fashion).

- Comment on What are some good things to purchase to add a new distraction to my life? 2 months ago:
Dumptruck ass is an upside.
But the pants thing is real. I got a nice pair of jeans and outgrew them in like 8 months.
I’m buying as much as I can second hand now because I’ve not even reached my final form.

I got into lifting. Which got me into fashion because I needed a whole new wardrobe once my clothes became too small for me.

- Comment on beans 🫘 3 months ago:
He also believed your soul carries on after death and enters a new body, possibly even an animal’s.
The story that he was killed because he refused to run away through a field of beans is probably fake. There’s a trope of ancient philosophers getting ironic deaths:
-
Archimedes being killed because he was absorbed in his geometry (he told the attacking soldier “don’t disturb my circles!”)
-
Diogenes was notorious for rejecting social norms and acting dog-like. “Cynic” comes from the Greek word for “dog”. He died of food poisoning after eating raw octopus, showing you can’t really live like a dog.
