That and they were used with a massive shield that was generally meant to be used in a phalanx.

Spearmen/pikemen directly behind the shield wall and if they get past the spears/pikes there’s a wall of shields and gladii to deal with

I too actively engage in politics when said politics is about basic human rights

Y use lot word when short word do trick.

I get over abbreviation is annoying but this isn’t that bad

Idk if this is more of a local thing but in Ohio we call rolling stops a California stop

Bro it’s really not that hard to figure out.

He’s currently 22

I’m not desirable because I have resting bitch face. I always look like I’m angry even when I’m not. I’m also 6’3" so I’m imposing. I’m also covered in tattoos and scars some of which are obviously from self harm.

All of these individually are reasons for women to be uninterested in me. All of them together make me damn near impossible to approach.

I know the current view of men is that we’re all just potential rapists or abusers but that’s exactly why so many men are trying to prove themselves. They’re just trying to prove they’re not what most women today think all men are.

Meanwhile women just exist. That’s literally all they have to do.

But as your father it’s your responsibility to limit her screen time. TikTok brain isn’t “coming for your kids” you’re enabling it.

I mean yeah we’ve known this for a while now but the phrasing makes it sound deliberately panic inducing

I mean you could say the same about anything really. Govt is just a collective agreed upon system. Individual countries are just arbitrary lines drawn that only persist because we gave those lines meaning.

Everything about civilization only has importance because we give it all importance.

Yeah that happens a lot on TikTok. I replied to a guy and gave him multiple sources and he just kept acting like they weren’t right there

I only use it when people ask me for sources that are readily available through any search engine. Like bruh I’m not filling an entire comment with hyperlinks when you can just switch apps and find all of them

Y-yogurt… It’s yogurt…

Except we already have more houses than there are homeless people. The problem is the empty houses have ridiculous price tags due to corporate landlords and landlords refusing the sell and only rent (also at ridiculous prices)

Just say you don’t understand what dog whistling is and move on
