I remember telling my mom I'd make a good Spinster, just hanging out at home, doing needle work. She laughed and said, "You're black, you'd be a slave."
One of these literally shows a dead soldier in a field of flowers so, yeah.
It's idle longing. I could give up my career, move to a deeply rural area, and break my back doing menial jobs until I die of health complications at 64. I won't, but it's nice to long for the imagined simplicity sometimes y'know?
Naw, me and 63 of my closest friends are going to kill this massive hairy thing and eat the good parts, then kill another one. They can't run out, can they?

I see what you're saying
And it's correct
But
A lot of people also long for the relative simplicity and predictability of peasant life.
What is the entirety of the cottagecore aesthetic if not a longing for that? (well, that and a hint of racism but y'know y'know y'know)

You obviously don't play chess. It's called horsey, not knight

Some people think I'm stupid just because I tend to say stupid stuff. Turns out I actually know things

Wikipedia is full of libtard bigots. Even Musk hates them, that's how biased they are.

Isn't it gay for a man to touch a man's butt, even if it's his own? #superstraight

Pretty sure you aren't born to battle to a senseless death for a greedy overlord. You're born to exhaustion hunt prey and gather seeds and roots
