there was actually a study done in 2018 that concluded her daughter had died as was said in the 1930s, there were documents about the death of the daughter that was alleged to have been her which weren't publicly known until about 8 years ago. a short read on the topic, and a link to the study in the article if anyone is interested. she was apparently almost entirely blind and deaf in 1997 when she died, so it's not like she was doing perfect or anything either.
You should read what was linked. The proof that she really lived that long is an article from a week later that says there was a "partulicularly large group" that went to the funeral so it totally happened. The article is supported by some totally accurate math that states "someone has a 1 in ten million chance to live past 120" so that means she did. Pretty clearly bullshit if you put in 5min of work. I can't even find the article from 1934 that the "study" says exists.
 
I would say animosity between WASPs and Irish/Italians dissipated because of integration.
It's more due to the fact that Protestantism lost its coherence. Back when WASPs were strongly Calvinist, they persecuted the Catholic Irish and Italians, and they added Catholic Germans to the mix, especially during Prohibition. But as Protestantism lost its coherence over the years and got less dogmatic, WASPs fell away and either became Evangelicals or even Catholic. The furor over the Satanic Panic further drove more WASPs from the faith, which also made them less hostile to Irish and Italians in particular and just made them hate religious people in general.
 
This is very true and hits close to home.

Columbine happenned just as i was entering kindergarten

Columbine happened my freshman year of high-school right after they approved the building of a new high school. When we moved in Junior year the new HS was built like a fortress. It had a billion cameras and gone were the days of skipping out of 8th period unnoticed or walking to McDonald's for lunch.

Anyways, i can't imagine i'm the only one with that story, there's even subreddits called 2-a leftists or whatever. They really need to figure out where they stand on that issue.

It's socialistRA, it generates a lot of screenshots of tacticool trannies and rainbow colored 9mms. Whenever I hear "you're more likely to shoot yourself than a burgler" pop statistics I always think of SocialistRA trannies 41%ing with a Trans flag covered gun.

It'll make the toppling of Saddam look like a drop of water in the Pacific.
Militarily I have zero doubt Isreal can. The deck is stacked in their favor if they want to do a regime change. Just remember the lesson of Iraq. You never know what the last guy was holding back, no matter how much of a fucking asshole the last guy was
 
Isn't he the one who gets blood transfusions from his teenage son? And compares his morning wood with him too. Fucking creepy
Bryan Johnson is maxing out on the psycho stats. As per his Wikipedia:
  • raised Mormon
  • has an MBA
  • from the University of Chicago
  • venture capitalist
  • vegan
And his Blueprint website is total insanity. Imagine writing a blog post entitled MY SPERM HEALTH PROTOCOL, detailing your total motile sperm count (averaged 165 million :tomgirl:) and other medical particulars while assuring your readers that "semen quality is a real-time readout of your biological age."

Hi Friend,

While global sperm health is plummeting, my sperm count is over 4× the average. At age 47.

Global data from 1973 to 2018:
+ sperm concentration declined by 51%
+ total sperm count declined 55%

My sperm concentration (143 million) and count (380 million) both exceed 1973 levels demonstrating you can maintain high fertility in the modern world.

Semen quality is a real-time readout of your biological age.

My sperm health protocol ⬇️

Semen quality isn’t just about reproduction. It’s one of the clearest biomarkers of systemic aging: tightly linked to hormone health, inflammation, mitochondrial function, and metabolic fitness.

Across five lab tests in 3 months, my total motile sperm count (TMC) averaged 165 million, more than 4 times the WHO threshold for natural fertility (40 million). My peak: 214 million.

Average sperm markers for a 45 yr old:

+ Swimmers. Typical = 80 million. Mine = 165 million.
+ Motility. Typical = 35%. Mine = 43%.
+ Morphology. Typical = <5%. Mine = 8%.

My numbers consistently exceeded those averages by 2-4x.

Protocol for optimal sperm health:

+ Sleep: 8+ hours nightly
+ Reduce inflammation: omega-3s [Blueprint Omega-3 supplement coming soon], NAC, exercise
+ Avoid testicular heat: no saunas (or sauna with an testicular ice pack), tight underwear, or laptops
+ Eliminate toxins: alcohol, cigarettes, plastics
+ Train hard: boost VO₂ max, lift weights
+ Track: Testosterone, SHBG, LH, CRP + semen quality

If your computer is on your lap now, remove it. Keep those boys cool.

Bryan
Note that the publish date was June 10th, and Bryan no doubt thought he was being both tactful and clever by not putting it out on Father's Day. At any rate, this epitomizes the godlessness of our current times etc etc and I'm surprised he not openly eating human fetuses. While Bryan is no doubt engaged in designing a new cryogenic ball cooling regimen, I'm off to work in the garden and spend time with my dad. Happy Father's Day to all those fortunate enough to celebrate it!
 
Ironic the SJWs are having these "No Kings" protests, when they want totalitarian control themselves. And had Harris "won", there'd be even more "woke" control going on now.
Sweaty we have no kings in America but they didn’t say nothin about queens 💅
Not very likely, especially given a lot of people aren't going to be voting Vance who voted Trump.

Point in fact I will be remaining Republican purely to vote against him in the primaries, I'm sure I won't be the only one.
Is this based on reality or what you wish were true? I can’t see Trump voters looking at a younger and more articulate representative of the MAGA movement and being like, no he’s not old and boomery on Twitter enough, pass. Hell I’ve been ready to vote for him since the VP debate.
 
what purpose would they have had to perpetrate this ruse from her daughter's funeral starting in the early 1930s onward? why would they bother? the 'oldest person alive' thing wasn't even a thing we cared about until like the 80s, it was just some niche trivia. how would they have manipulated an entire town to lie about the daughter's funeral to the paper that recorded it in arles? it's not like it was one or two people, it was a lot. it was documented.
Could be lots of reasons taxes, inheritance, some sort of family secret where they needed her to be alive so they assumed her identity. It's also a consequence of the potential reason. She wasn't trying to be the world's oldest person. That's absurd to even argue. However when you suddenly take 30 years off your biological age it becomes a whole lot easier. It's not like you can't find cases where people have lived under false identities for long periods of time. I'm not sure why its so far fetched that people 100 years ago did it when it was more easy to do back then.
unless there's suspicion of a crime, or a reason to question why your family member died, there's usually not an autopsy done, especially when you're over 100 and the family doesn't care for it. some people don't want their relative's body sliced open for no reason other than "gee, wonder what made nana, age 122, croak."

and all this effort, the work required, why would they lie? for what benefit, for what purpose?
I dunno but if my family member died as the oldest living human ever recorded that's a pretty great reason to get an autopsy. I think most people, especially scientists would be very interested in having this once in a life time chance to see the state of your body after 122 years. The only reason you'd not have an autopsy at that point is if you're actually 99 but have been pretending to be 122.

I'll leave you with a personal story. Years ago I worked on a bar and we had a DJ. Every week he would come in and ply and at the end of the night he would thank everyone including someone named Adam. He had regular so we assumed it was one of his regulars. Fast forward a few months into him thanking Adam and we had adverse weather. It's awful out and at the end its just me and another bartender and he looks at me and says "Adam have a good night" and walks out. It then dawns on me and the other bartender that I was Adam and he didn't know my name after months of working with him.
 
Ever since that idubbbz/hasan concern troll supercut was shown on the Kino Casino the other week, people are crying about concern trolling more frequently.

Stop being so easily programmable.
You're crashing out General Ripper. Are you okay, do you need help? Have you been using flouride? Are you sure your fluids are pure?

I just want to add "crashing out" to the list of shit buzzphrase's I heard for the first time 6 weeks ago and 100 times a day since.

or if your family have any personal reason to be against dissecting you. if they don't have that same curiosity, they wouldn't find any purpose to cutting her body open to remove her organs and such to study them. there's more to an autopsy than just taking a peek inside. again, there doesn't seem to be any evidence of ANY reason for them to have done this, and there is essentially no reason to doubt this other than a random russian researcher who presented coincidental evidence that it could have plausibly occurred. the problem is, without any kind of motive, there's no reason for me to believe it over the more likely explanation that it was simply a lucky person.

so far i have not been presented any actual evidence that this WAS done, only that it technically would have been possible, even though there's no real purpose to doing so. the family was already rich, and i'm not sure what tax obligations they'd dodge by not telling anyone one of the two people responsible for their money was dead. it's not like the man of the house was dead. this is a very important part of it to me. i acknowledge that it could have been done, but i don't believe there's any evidence that it was done, and the next oldest person only died 3 years earlier than she did, so it's not like her age of 122 is significantly more notable as a super-centenarian than any other. anyway, i've shat up the thread about this lady enough so i'm done after this, but i don't believe there was any actual motivation to do this shown, proven, or even implied other than simple guesses as to why, and she was just one of those random people whose genes and environment were perfect for a very long life, the final 20 or so years of which she suffered significant physical decline similar to other super-centenarians.

Yeah, I can tell it's not going to last forever; recently, I nearly burned through $100 within an hour on gas and food from Winn Dixie (that was with me deliberately looking for sales in the store and using my membership to get discounts). That leads into the question of what is it going to be replaced with when it eventually does collapse? All of us are going to be in big, big trouble when it does, and it wouldn't surprise me if we're in a soft depression right now. - What the US has right now cannot be fixed at this point by voting your way out of it, or by some other means that are currently in place.

EDIT: Would also like to apologize for deliberately escalating slap fights in this thread last night and making things worse by reviling people back. Not a good thing to do for more reasons than one.
An open secret at this point is that the Great Recession never truly ended for all but the rich. Whats the point of line going up if most of the gains go to kikes and other international elites at the top 1% at the expense of the average American? Wages have been mostly stagnant since the 70s yet CEO salaries keep increasing even as CEOs themselves become more out of touch and incompetent.

You got any more details on this? I am interested to hear more
