I know there's a temptation to keep all these things to ourselves, to restrict access to my great articles because it feels more intimate when it's "just us", and we can share a kind of hidden insight or understanding. But I implore you to share my articles with your mom and closest friends and strangers on various social media sites. because your mom might fall for my email scam and send me 5 bucks. thank you

I love this crazy theory but I need more evidence. If you see anything else pointing you in this direction please update…

I question it because I am a dumb slut, and I’m thinking about joining a military that isn’t my native land’s burger forces for survival-skills and discipline learning purposes. Surely other dumb sluts know what basic involves, and you can’t have they/them knuckle tats?

Agree here. People think the military is all about shooting terrorists or civilians who might be terrorists. That's wrong. Most of it is paperwork and logistics. The only people doing much killing/being killed these days are drone pilots and black ops/special forces. That's how the US has been able to stay in Iraq/Afghanistan longer than they stayed in Vietnam with little to show for it. It's not a conspiracy, either, it's the system giving us what we want: spoils of war with minimal death and suffering (on our side, anyway).

Don't quote me on this, but women might even make for better drone operators (it's like Candy Crush but with fuzzier graphics). They're probably better at project management. And because it's no longer socially acceptable to have USO or Playboy entertain the troops, workplace romances are just going to have to be normalized.

It's harder to be angry when it's a female drone pilot

> Universal Basic Girlfriend

Matchmaking nerds together is a fun idea and all, but admissions are acting as a filtering mechanism!? What would the working class do then?

> Joining Military for the Pussy

And now we are entering Darling in the Franxx territory (yes anime predicted this, damn you Abe). But for serious, the "military wife" infidelity problem has not been solved yet.

if youre a globalist societal planner the military wife infidelity is a feature, not a bug

TBH the Franxx "soverign-controlled youth mate-matching" is cute, but it has a lot of moral issues, even when AI personality-based matchmakers would on principle work without materialism fudging mating.

> This today, thanks to the internet and it’s impact on the rest of society, means nothing, as no one trusts the people or institution providing the guarantee, that you are smart/cool.

It should be noted that this has been recognized well before the internet:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signalling_(economics)#Spence_1973:_"Job_Market_Signaling"_paper

The tl;dr being that academic credentials, at best, only weakly correlate with merit. What is the primary signal component is your upfront *cost* of getting the credential. Fisherian ornament, somewhat outside of sexual selection utilized by the market ... now going back full circle to being a fisherian ornament again.
