I think it's more about not having to 'celebrate' on a specific time or day if you don't have kids or a partner?
Birthdays in general just seem like a thing for kids. As a kid you get presents, your family visits. It was always fun.
But with the bros, we just hang out, have a dinner, usually a trip to the movies or the pub.
If you want something you just buy it. I bought the S25 Ultra as a month early birthday gift for myself. I could've kept it unpacked, but why wait.
With couples I mostly see them celebrate the anniversaries (wedding / first date) more than their own birthdays.
Overall I like to celebrate achievements more like big deals and end of year results than just surviving another rotation of the planet

I don't like mf's thinking it's funny to sing happy birthday when you are a sourpuss!
Birthdays lost meaning when family restaurants started asking for proof and payment to wheel out a cake with song.
The absolute anguish on their faces as they’re forced to entertain the lads gaming half priced appetizers.

White people know blackface is wrong, so there's little educational value there. It continues to be perpetuated because white people don't actually give a shit about harming Black people, mainly because there's no meaningful social or legal consequences for doing so 99 times out of 100.
Blackface episodes completely miss the root of the problem, which is that white people are and largely always have been unwilling to police their racism. Blackface depiction then just comes across as self-indulgant. It's Tarantino saying the n-word. https://www.resetera.com/threads/removing-controversial-episodes-of-shows-is-objectively-bad-and-performative-right.1114086/post-136051785
See, there's zero value to these episodes because everyone already knows that blackface is racist. However I will also react insanely outraged when some Japanese cosplayer claims they didn't know that blackface is bad
It sure is lucky that black people can't be racist because they're black, as per era doctrine, or there would be a lot to unpack about nepenthes little diktat here, not the least being in what context 'blackface' is 'bad' and why, and if its not self explanatory then surely there is educational value.
For example, the Always Sunny Lethal Weapon Sequel episode clearly isn't taking a job away from a black person that would otherwise have been employed.
The episode of 30 Rock where Jenna does blackface because shes in an oppression olympics with Tracey to prove who has it harder in life isn't a joke at black peoples expense - its a joke at the expense of two narcissicists so vastly removed from any oppression or average experience they both think that its a good idea. (But of course, a white woman in blackface is the most disgusting taboo imaginable, but a black man pretending to be a woman is true courage against societal norms, amirite?)
Also of course absolutely nothing performative at all about censoring a chinese man larping as a drow, no sir.

This is what Latinos voted for, because every single one of them is convinced they're white enough, legal enough to be one of the good ones.

They did vote for this, they just didn't expect it to happen to them.
Also Fj0823 responded to some criticism before his ban:

I'm latino myself, my family lives in the states and they all voted for this shit.

Not only are the mental illness rates among the trans identity population massively higher than the general population, the community itself argues that much of it will kill itself over any slight.
And if there's no link then why does it need medical treatment?
there's also a significantly higher incidence rate of CSA - both as victim and also as perpetrator - but nobody should research this because it will make people very mad
I do gotta laugh at "we can't study if there's a link between X and mental illness because...well, have you met these people? They're scary!"
Sounds like we can skip the study.

My cousin wants one. He works in a bank and is not a handy man, hunter, or anything lol. He's a white collar guy, through and through.
What's the appeal of these things if you're not using them as a work truck? What's funny is that many even have smaller bed sizes too. So it's pure aesthetics.
Folks pay 1000 bucks or more on car note for these monstronsities. I don't get it.
