Nixon should get WAY more credit for ending the Cold War. Like equal or maybe even greater than Ronnie gets, considering him taking away China as the USSR's Eastern front cushion/protection and forcing them to greatly over expand their military spending to try and make up for it which led in no small part to their economic collapse. Dude was a dirty politician, but he wasn't nearly as awful as LBJ had been before him.

I know way too many asshole LBJ stories though since a close friend of mine's grandfather was a staff colonel assigned to the Whitehouse during the LBJ years as the SIGINT subject matter expert for the DoD. He would get woken up to go to the Whitehouse at 2am because LBJ was drunk and pissed off that he couldn't watch the news. He'd go in to the president's study and LBJ would be there nude, drink in hand, asking him why all the TVs are broken and he'd have to explain no one was broadcasting at 2am on a Thursday
I always thought that story about LBJ pulling out his cock and saying, "this is why!" in response to why we're in Vietnam was a true fucking story.

It is. His grandfather is still alive, I see him monthly at our regular BBQs whenever they're at said friend's house. He says LBJ would just randomly piss in flowerpots and trashcans mid-conversation with people he was annoyed with all the time. He would even take shits with the bathroom door open while he was loudly berating people
 
It's exhausting, full-time work if done right, and many kids still grow up to blame their parents for any and all of their personal failings.
Yep, thats the worse part, all the tradfags saying "you're gonna die alone" but hospice homes are full of old people with families who put them there, the era where grandpa moved to his kid's home is over, by the time I'm that old they're gonna put me in some discount matrix with PS2 graphics and have me talk to shitty NPCs until I die
Life is good.

To quote the song: "It could have been much worse but it should have been better."

Still, being solid Gen-X, all the shit I've survived, I'm doing good. Even the aches and pains are all worth it.
Which song is that?
They say with age comes wisdom. Not so sure about that, but it does provide a literal shit ton of hindsight and perspective. The kind of stuff that if I only knew THEN what I know NOW, well my life would likely be quite different.
Same here even at my 30s, but TBH is more like realizing why past mistakes happened rather than learning new tricks you know? I know that learning is a trip and it never ends but even at my age I feel aimless most of the time, shit is changing fast and I'm starting to think the singularity wasnt just bullshit. Sometimes is like I cant keep up with all the new shit and yet none of it makes me excited or anything, either I fail to see the potential, think its dumb as hell or cant figure out how to take advantage of it while others do
The moon landing. Another milestone event. We watched it everyday in class. Men walking on the moon! All the boys wanted to be astronauts. It was cool!
How do you feel about the whole "space future" being a total bust? I mean, I still feel disappointed that back in the 90s we were told there would be a mission to mars by the 2020s. Back in your time they were thinking there would be a mission to fucking jupiter in the 2000s.
One of the things I don't mind about getting older? I lived history. Not the "right or wrong side" of it as it's portrayed today, but actual living, breathing history as it happened.
Doing the same here in my country, never a dull day living here, but in the "may you live interesting times" sort of way which really sucks
I figure it's a trick by post-wall women to kept the older guys from poaching the younger girls. With age comes the wisdom to see through young girl games and bullshit. This makes the yenta's unhappy.
Seen plenty of aging whores trying to get on with younger guys because they dont know any better so they trick them to become a reverse-sugar mommy who leeches off them

The chinks had broken with the soviets during krushev times, there was no point trying to drive a wedge between them, thats what glownigger bullshit that basically created the chink monster thats fucking the planet up. Had they left the chinks isolated as they were it would be just a much bigger north korea, which is basically what china was until fucking nixon showed up. And after the ussr went bankrupt the chinks would've doubled-down on communism seeing how the russians were left to sucking dick for a living even tho they were far better off than the chingchongs ever were before the deng times

It was totally exciting then. Now? It's all just posturing for an inevitable war above the atmosphere of Earth. Satellite killer drones and such. What real progress has been made since NASA diversity cucked under Obama? Okay, we got a rover on Mars. Given. But most of older fucks saw Star Trek (created late 60's) as a reality in our life times. Instead, we have Elon floating a Tesla in dead space above Earth. Reality is disappointing, at best.
 
For me, health-wise, aside from having a deviated septum (which is part of the reason why i HATE wearing masks) the only thing wrong with me is that my protein is high and my iron is low. Recently I started taking iron pills ontop of my multi-vitamin, and so far I seem to have a little more energy than usual.

Only thing I seriously collect is DVDs of my favorite shows, both old and new (Bob's Burgers and Archer is like the newest shows I have... everything else is from the 90's). Shout Factory made it easy for me to do this, but unfortunately they keep loosing some good licenses (like Hey Arnold... they had the complete series years ago but not anymore), so I have to find other places to get my stuff.

Traveling is overrated. I'm sure their are some nice places, but considering the majority of the world is fucked, you're better off (at most) doing road trips to different states or something.

Then again I've always been a homebody. Furthest I've been to was New Jersey, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania.
>Traveling sucks!
>Has never left the country
lol
 
Early thirties here, in the best shape of my life. Had some minor tweaks and aches here and there from lifting heavy, but nothing that can't be foam rolled out or massaged away.

Still single, unmarried, and without children by choice. Not quite ready for that yet (nor are the pickings great in the west.)

I find that I increasingly give less fucks about many things. My only real passions right now are staying healthy, learning new things, and avoiding become an 'old' as much as possible, both physically and in terms of outlook/philosophy.

Being in great shape owns because it gives you such a sense of confidence. I feel the younger people lack that now.

100%. I find I'm adopting much more 'pre-hab' and post-workout therapy these days, as I'm after longevity. I don't wanna go down the powerlifter route, being strong as fuck but stiff as a board with shit mobility when I'm in my 40s.

Or elsewhere unless you're a richfag but in that case you're most likely getting a golddigger

I have posts elsewhere on this topic, but there are most definitely countries you can travel to where a well-kept white man can do extremely well. And I'm not talking about paying for pussy. Alternatively, you can go for minorities in your own country, and create these effects in a microcosm (what I've done for years now.)

Feel free to link them but my experience is that if you're not getting much luck in your country then you're unlikely to do better elsewhere

If you're a total loser even a poor chick from burkina faso is going to (eventually) find out
 
People think I'm 20 years old because I always put younger people to shame physically... and I'm very humble as well.

I wasn't taking that angle so much, but you are in fact correct. Plenty of white losers move to Japan or SEA and find that they go from zero pussy to just a little - which is a several hundred percent increase on before. That's a win in their eyes, even if the women they're fucking with are prostitute level or just plain undesirable.

I'm speaking more in terms of non-lefty, non selfish, non tatted and pierced whores that are increasingly rare in the western hemisphere. Being a white, Christian, conservative male, my options are severely limited in the domestic population. Minorities, be they Indian, Asian, or from elsewhere, jive much more with my politics and values - an additional bonus being they're also much more attractive and feminine. Having been on this road for years now, I find I simply cannot go back. Haven't dated a British woman in years, don't plan to ever again.

But you're right - most of the types spewing such rhetoric are angry incels who haven't seen a vagina since they burst through one. Those guys will get found out no matter where they go.
