They were on the big side but, like, almost okay after the first two kids. But the third kid sent them into the next dimension.

For some reason, they never were as keen on taking up that offer as I was extending it.
women, who understands them?

They shrank like, 10% after she stopped nursing. Still enormous.

One thing which might happen, which would be hilarious, is that OpenAI is slightly too early but Anthropic is just right. That is, AGI is going to take just slightly longer than expected and OpenAI implodes from overinvestment while Anthropic rides to the moon.

Oh, good idea Mrs FiveHour! I thought her surgeon did an amazing job but I'll be sure to let Mrs Analog know since I'm sure her mind will wonder anyway.

My wife, having finished bearing and nursing kids, just had a breast reduction and she's spending the night at an Airbnb with her mom so that the kids don't crawl all over her.
It was quite necessary. They were huge to the point of causing back pain and impeding exercise and just being a bummer. It'll be about 6 weeks before she can resume normal life, but she'll be back home in a few days.
Anyway, what can I text her besides "send nudes"?
My kneejerk read on college is the upper class used to send their children to college to round them out and have them obtain their prestige certificate. The rest of society then got the causal arrow backwards and decided college was the key to improving normies and began pushing it as a moral imperative. Worse, it worked for a bit as a signaler, early results were accidentally promising and we've been stuck with this shit ever since.
Agreed. There's no shortage of men who could have an idyllic trad wife like that at home who would almost certainly still go out to the pub after work and spend 1.1 days worth of wages there.
Seems like a fantasy to believe homes would be so much happier if women stopped being libs.

no they're not gay. they're very mad that women won't date them. they just may as well be as unappealing to straight women as gay men
I live in a part of the world with second and third generation hippies running around and I can't tell you how many millennial men I know who bought into the "love is all you need" mythos, got jobs as massage therapists, glass blowers (weed pipes) or went into "farming" (selling weed, now unemployed since legalization) and they basically can't get women to look at them at all because they make ~minimum wage.
And the excuses! God the excuses. Muscles? How shallow, besides women just aren't turned on by that stuff. Confidence? Jockeying for dominance, I'm all about cooperation. Professional jobs? Can't support the crooked system, man. Stoicism? Just afraid of vulnerability.
But they're slowly, rudely discovering that when women signal an affinity for the hippie ethos that they don't mean it personally, certainly not as they approach the end of their fertile years. A man with a bumper sticker that says "I didn't cry today" and who hosts authentic relating workshops might as well be screaming I'M SO GAY. But they're everywhere. I feel bad for them. They're less fuckable than the median hick HVAC technician you find in the deep south.
They were born into a little micro culture that told them masculinity was bad and they believed it.

It's going to be so sick when the Newsom Administration designates both Palantir and Anduril as supply chain risks and puts them right out of business.
I find this kind of irritating. Feels like "check out these freaks who think they're better than you (they aren't)" genre bad faith writing.
I do like the Roy telling him to go to Turkey to get his hair fixed part though.
I liked his Burning Man article a lot more.

It wasn't just a welfare program, but also a dairy price stabilization program??

sorry I edited this in a few minutes after my reply
It's basically Epstein Island but for blue collar and/or immigrant types instead of the elite, the victim is older instead of underage and the videos of the rapes exist.
Your comment convinced me @ffrreerree2 was right on the money to bring this up as a Culture War topic.

Thinking-style models I tried the same question on gave the 'wrong' answer, but had Thinking components specifically highlighting that the question was strange and must have involved unstated assumptions (either picking up materials from the car wash to do the work at home, or the car already being there).
Mine got hung up wondering why you would try to optimize 50 meters, it's too inconsequential a distance to matter for greenhouse gas emissions or exercise.

Congrats!
Stock some Pepto bismol. The sulfur burps can be brutal while you're coming to speed.
Lift and consume high protein.
My wife said I had bad BO during my major losing months. So I had to make an effort to shower more.
Good luck!

I linked this down-thread but there's notes about each of the convicted rapists in this case here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelicot_rape_case#Convicted
Do you see a pattern?
I'll admit some of these fit some stereotypes.
Nizar Hamida
Had eight prior convictions, including domestic violence and attempted abduction of his child with a former partner.[65] Said he went for a sexual encounter to celebrate the end of his bachelor days as his wife-to-be was arriving shortly from Tunisia.[64]
Mohamed Rafaa
Had prior conviction for raping his 17-year-old daughter, for which he was sentenced to five years' imprisonment. Raped Gisèle while the Pelicots were at their daughter's holiday home on the Île de Ré.[64]
Hassan Ouamou
Convicted in absentia having fled the country, travelling between Morocco and Romania claiming no intention of returning to France. Thirteen prior convictions in connection with theft, violence, drugs, and possession of weapons.
But to me it's not that solid a pattern. Plenty of these people have proper French sounding names and like they'd be familiar with Christianity.
The most solid theme for me is: losers and imbeciles with a splash of psychopathy.

Calling LLMs “wordcel technology” is backwards in 2026.
You can paste in a screenshot of a math problem that 99%+ of adults would fail, calculus, linear algebra, probability, geometry and it will solve it step by step, showing its work.
Not just arithmetic. Structured reasoning over formal systems. The same goes for logic puzzles, physics derivations, statistics problems.
They'll even teach it to you.
If your definition of wordcel now includes ‘solves multistep math from an image and explains it', then we're just not going to agree on the term.
I can't really imagine all of those men thought they were knowingly raping this guy's wife against her will. I have to believe he told them it's her kink to be drugged up and raped and then she wants to watch the videos later. Or something. This is a lame excuse but I can see at least a few pathetic horn dogs falling for it.
Now let me see if any of the men offered any defense.
Update: I'm back. A few of the men said they thought it was a role play situation and that they were led to believe this by her husband. But most of them sound utterly indefensible. So, I underappreciated the horror by quite a bit.
There's a full table here with notes about each man and their defenses, if available.

They kind of sound like the dregs of society to me.
But yes, what is there to say? You can find dirt bags to do sex crime if you look long enough. The were all publicly shamed and convicted. The right thing happened, at least. My update is France takes these crimes more seriously than I would have expected. Also the right thing.
I'm slightly reassured it was only 72 men over 9 years and not, like, a thousand. Suggests the candidate pool is not a vast ocean.
I was unaware of this article.
My attitude towards AI tools for the last 18 months had been "yeah they're useful but if you try to get too ambitious with them they waste more time than they save" and I was like AI 2027? Ha, try AI 2035.
But something fundamentally changed with the models in the last month. I'm low key freaking out at how goddamn useful they are now through Claude Code and OpenAI Codex.
Forget METR evals. My personal real world evals are that they're 6/6 on doing 2-4 week long tasks in 1-2 hours.
I'm just doing this on the $20 OpenAI Plus monthly plan. They haven't throttled me yet. Feels like year 2020 Uber rides across town for $4 stuff.
Originally, I had kind of given up on claude code a few months ago because it was wasting more time than it was saving me. It would lose the plot pretty quickly even though my instructions and the goal were still well within the context window. I considered this an architectural limit of LLMs.
But as of the last two weeks, holy shit. claude code (and codex), they just grind away at problems. They don't lose the plot. They back out and try different approaches. They run micro experiment to test assumptions. They'll run the tools with --help and --version and check the man page. They'll step through the code of the installed version of meson to see why the config file is not behaving the way it expects. I just give them like one simple prompt and it'll chug away for 15-30 minutes just trying shit like an overly caffeinated engineer. They'll run builds and look at errors and fix them until it's clean.
And again, they don't lose sight of the goal. It's amazing.
Her surgeon suggested a full six weeks before she can resume 100% of activities, though can function as an independent adult after 1-2.
