  • What incentive do they have at this point to return to the old status quo?

    If the US fucks off, then Iran is left in a powerful negotiation position. They could use this incident to help normalize relations with other gulf states by pointing out how the US and Israel started the fight, then left them all high and dry. They could make non-agression and safe passage deals with the gulf states as well as exhert real pressure against the normalization of relations with Israel.

    EDIT:

    Less than a day later…






  • Yes. I’m a person of color that gets mistaken for hispanic, middle eastern, etc depending on location (I’m very mixed). I am also rich by most definitions (peasant by today’s standards). I made it a point to buy a brand new BMW i4 M50 EV and a used 2021 Mercedes Benz C63 AMG because I was getting harassed while driving my beloved Ford Fiesta. Since getting the nice cars, I have not been bothered once.

    It’s bullshit, but I understand the “why”. Bothering someone wity money is a pain in the ass and detrimental to their career. They can fuck with poor people all day long without consequences.








  • I think it’s a fairly common fantasy. Never in my life have I been hit on as much by young women as when I got a touch of grey in my beard and temples. It started in my early forties and I assume it will stop once I pass or get close to sixty, but holy shit!

    My best friend (f) since high school use to tell me how she loved men with a little grey. When she was 19, she even went out of her way to pick a guy (~43) up at the gym and bring him to her place to fuck. I always thought she was goofy but once I got my grey I realized how common a fantasy it actually is.
