How much of the prizes are really material costs vs. investor gains?

On a quick search, it seems wood houses are even more expensive to build in Europe (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S2352710222001012). This is probably not true in the US (which has a very different infrastructure). But if one takes resale value or long time reinvestments into account, I don't think wood houses are that much cheaper, even in the US, as a percentage of the overall investment.

It is like these morons are constantly surprised each time they discover that public services cost money.

Even worse. They are too dumb to understand that essential services and workers are essential.

How is that relevant now?

Yeah, but the dentist will still get paid and he will also get filthy rich in Germany. The joke works in Germany just as well as in the US...

Ok. Thx. I am not from the US and in my 40s. This whole thing of labeling people into categories is somewhat foreign to me. I mean my generation over here did this as well to a degree (and I admit I never got it), but it appears this has become much more dominant thin (at least at the other side of the pacific).

I also tend to aggressively ignore things I deam stupid. But my children will be teenagers soo, guess I'll have to put some time into researching these kind of things.

I must be way too old. Being a nice guy is bad? Fuck, I've been living under a rock. Is this about "incels" or this sigma thing?

Edit: Lol, why the downvotes? You guys aren't nice!

The situation of trans peoplem in Turkey is interesting. They were much more dominant part of society much earlier than in the west. It was completly normal in many parts of Istanbul to see trans people in the 1980s already. Trans people were also big part of pop culture quite early, Bülent Ersoy for example became a trans superstar in the 1980s. Gender change is legal since 1988 (much earlier than many EU countries).

At the same time, there defintly are a lot of social repercussions against trans people.

It is quite the mixed pack tbh.

Turks are the perfect alphas confirmed (we don't have gender in our language). He, she, it, all the same to us.

Looks interesting. But I literally have dozens of warhammer (fantasy and 40k) books left to read and hear... Oh man, what do you guys think?

Still undecided about this one. I like NBA games, but was quite disappointed in the last 2k game I bought (NAB 21), the personal player mode was just so annoyingly micropayment ruined.

Lethal League Blaze looks cool, but 14€ is probably a little too much for it alone.

And I read too much unpromising stuff about WWE 2k battlegrounds.

 

Bought it a few days ago. Seems to be well regarded on goodreads and a quick hear in made it sound like a quality production.
