(2) Dr Daisy Dixon on X: "my theory is that a reason these men donโ€™t like tattoos on women is because itโ€™s an outward sign of creative agency and self-ownership - it signals that the womanโ€™s body is hers and no one elseโ€™s - it aesthetically undermines and rejects menโ€™s felt entitlement to our bodies ๐Ÿ–ค" / X

Too general, but basically correct. Not all women are dishonest. But many are when it comes to intrasexual competition! They will do whatever it takes to hobble other perceived competitors.

And yes, a lot of women particularly hate Sydney Sweeney because they realize that she’s the woman they could’ve been if they hadn’t ballooned up to 400 pounds and gotten loads of horrid tattoos. Because though Sydney is attractive — as I’ve pointed out before — she’s “normal” attractive. She cleans up really well but does not have a supermodel build, face or physique (unlike someone like Margot Robbie, who does).

Thus, Sydney is particularly hated because many women who care deeply about such things realize they could have been her, but blew it. Thus, she is more deeply despised than someone like Sasha Luss because no amount of eating right and dressing well will get anyone to that (as she is a freak of nature in a positive way).

Sydney is despised because she was what they could’ve been, but failed. And that stings far more than seeing something that was never possible.

Cannot Handle

Women just get enraged about men not liking tattoos and being rejected therefore because they are used to having 100% choice in the dating market.

When someone rejects them from the outset for a choice they’ve made that’s now unchangeable, that’s fuckin’ war. That’s what I mean about women “incelling themselves.” For a brief moment, they have to deal with dating as a man does.

And they cannot fucking handle it. I love it, though. Makes me happy.

Well Ink

If you want to truly own your body, get as fit as I am.

But that takes a lot of work, time, and not eating like a clown. It’s certainly easier to get done up like graffiti on a train car instead.

It feels so much better, though, to be able to pick up a two-hundred-pound stone off the ground and move it without much effort than it does to look like an inkwell took a shit on you.

Bad Tat

Agreed. It’s a sign of poor impulse control and bad taste.

It’s an aesthetic crime pointing to subpar character, a high future discount rate, and that we’ll have no shared goals. That’s enough.

I don’t give a shit about — or even believe — the garbage about body ownership or whatever clownery the faux-feminists have come up with. Watching women incel themselves with tattoos, though, is pretty hilarious I do have to admit.

Why does relationship in the U.S. feel so harsh compared to back home?

The US has the worst relationship culture and by far the most abysmal gender relations of any Western country. Also, the worst, most entitled women and nearly the worst men1 overall.

Dating will be hell for anyone who is not accustomed to gender relations being outright unrestricted warfare.

Junior Dev

This is because AI is currently “only” as good as a very good, tireless, junior developer. I can get someone/something like that to do whatever I want because I have an extensive technical background and have done near-dev work my entire life starting from when I was five years old.

Someone without that experience like Katie is not qualified to tell a junior dev (the AI) what to do or how to do it, so their efforts will fail. AI and junior devs currently share a lot. For instance:

1) A junior dev/AI has no idea why it’s doing anything, even if you explain it it. Can write good code but has no design sense or architectural vision.

2) A junior dev/AI will make whatever changes they are told, but will not be able to contextualize them in any real way.

3) A junior dev/AI will not set up its dev environment competently without extensive assistance.

4) A junior dev/AI will not understand what to test or why, especially in the context of the larger user experience.

5) A junior dev/AI will have no idea about security, and not understand it it any real way even with extensive explanation and guidance.

I am not saying that AI is not useful. What I am saying is that AI is only as good as a talented but green junior developer with 1-2 years of experience. That’s still far, far superior to nothing.

So that means that someone like Katie is not yet able to steer it correctly to build anything good or useful.
