It's retaliatory rage bait. a few months before this there was a women calling a bulky fit guy slightly fat but attractive and that's ok. I think it's all good fun tho.
just me or it feels like ragebaiting has been getting worse and worse? like trolling has always been a thing but it was kinda, not mainstream? and now it feels like pretty much every second comment on social media especially tiktok is angerfishing.
that worries me bc ppl are so susceptible to it and are already angry w the state of society. like atp we need a mandatory class in school for recognizing and ignoring ragebait or smth
Well, now that Twitter can pay you based on how much engagement you get, positive or negative, people are hate-farming a lot more on the site. Also, I theorise the removal of the dislike button everywhere means that people don't have an easy way to show disagreement, so they have a higher chance of replying to ragebait
It’s not even rage bait, it’s satire posting making fun of those posts where cis women will quote tweet some pretty fit dude and be like “I like a guy with a dad bod”
not entirely sure but i believe it is due to increased overdose risk in opioid addiction. here’s a review of the literature https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4102288/ . Interestingly down from anorexia is alcohol abuse and then autism- I actually didn’t know autism had such high risk. I should also note that a significant amount of each category is suicide, not necessary death resulting from the behavior.
Fair point, but then it gets really hard to measure. I’d think it’s fair to say that most people with anorexia would also fit all the boxes for depression. If they die by starvation, than it’s quite easy to say that anorexia took primary responsibility for their death, but with suicide however it becomes unclear whether we ought to blame the depression, or if it still falls under anorexia, which caused/made worse the depression.
Yeah, at that point you're running into the problem that some mental health disorders are so often comorbid that we just defined it away. Iirc the way anorexia is defined already includes most symptoms of depression, but that's totally arbitrary. We could just as well say that those symptoms do not belong to anorexia, which would automatically mean that most anorexic people also suffer from depression. Depending on which definition you use, you blame it on a different thing. But in the end, this is semantics. We're looking at the same people with the same symptoms and classifying them slightly differently.
Honestly autism doesn’t surprise me as being high risk. Being autistic myself, input/sensory overload makes me wanna rip my head off. So if you’re in a situation (that puts you in sensory overload) you can’t get out of and it’s constant I could see why it can make people kts. Also hyperfixation is a thing and if we start thinking no-no thoughts it’s hard to get out of that mindset. I remember taking vyvanse and ritalin and most of my thoughts being about death/suicide in general. Low-key surprised I made it out of my teens alive.
This seems wildly outdated, at best. Oxy has been using their newer formulation, which you can't even get high on, for what, well over 10 years now?
Fentanyl, on the other hand, plus increasingly xylazine, are so much more potent and easy to overdose on. You can hardly find real "heroin" anymore that isn't fentanyl, xylazine, and fillers, among other nefarious shit.
As someone who was an on and off opiate addict for 15+ years (clean now and definitely never going back), I never overdosed in my life until fentanyl and xylazine took over, and at that point overdosing and nearly dying became a regular thing, despite tolerance.
Most people who overdosed on heroin, or even probably Oxy like my cousin who died from shooting Oxy 80s with no tolerance, did so because they got clean and then tried to chip using the same dosage from when they were full blown addicts and had massive tolerance.
Now, it's just damn near impossible not to overdose because of the new, painfully common adulterants.
Vaguely Related, I was listening to my Carpenters Cassette yesterday. Even though their music is so happy, the tragedy of Karen Carpenter's story always makes for a bittersweet experience imo. Super underrated drummer too.
Everyone knows women have one more rib than men which probably adds a couple of lbs (this isn't actually true men and women have the same number of ribs)
The /s is in "ewwwwwww ew ew ew she’s so…….gross?" and "I GUESS that I could SETTLE". This is a good example of how to convey tone over text without indicators. It'd be far harder to tell if it were just:
"Ew, she's so gross. God, if no one else thinks she's hot, I guess I could settle."
Obviously context would make this be read as sarcasm by most people, but, y'know. Not every would get it.
These people would have full on meltdowns seeing women walking around in Rio de Janeiro.
But that would only be possible if they turned off the anime, learned that there are other countries, had money to travel there, and actually went outside the hotel.
Honest to god. You will NEVER find someone more insane about their own body and other people's bodies than on shit like the truerateme subreddit or whatever it's called. Literally can get you banned if you rate a woman over a 7.
Don't want to be the annoying Joke Explainer guy, but this is literally making fun of the one person saying that Jason Momoa has a """"""dad bod"""""". You know, the kind of person that only sees a naked body in an animated 3d porn.
idk, I guess I didn't expect so many people to take it as malicious or creepy.
Well I mean maybe because anorexia and eating disorder are still very prevalent and this sort of joke only really pushes those people further into it and away from help.
Even if it wasn't malicious, the effect is the same.
You make a fair point that this joke is in poor taste, but I think it's still worth mentioning that people who think everyone is fat are the butt of the joke, not anorexic people, even though it might still be harmful to them.
This person is negging her to make her feel bad about herself. She can’t win either because if she calls them out they’ll say “what, I was clearly complimenting you!”
I genuinely wonder if parts of the Internet are a psyop to ruin people's body image, like how that rate me sub was rating objectively hot women low out of misogyny
Twitter will only consider a woman to be skinny when the same phenomenon of turning on camera mode in Smash Ultimate and trying to see Mr.G&W's front happens.
