He saw Tony from Skins and went “Yes.”
Y’know I see it. All love to my trans homies, but fuck man, I see it.
Yup. Definitely looks trans in the second one
Saying that someone “looks trans” is big oof.
Doesn’t mean it’s not a thing
Cis women who are not “traditionally feminine” are often the ones who are on the other side of the “looks trans” comments, meaning once again a veiled attempt at “protecting” women (TERFs) victimizes them.
That may be true but it doesn’t impact whether or not such a “look” exists. The intent of the person pointing something out is not relevant to the existence of the thing being described.
And my point is that it doesn’t exist. Many people that “transvestigators” think “look trans” are actually cis women. Or in the case of this post, a cis man. Saying someone “looks trans” is transphobic and not based on anything of value.
You are welcome to your own interpretation of the world but I think most people would agree that there is a common set of characteristics associated with any kind of surgical or hormonal body modification. You are right when you say that some trans people exhibit those characteristics more than others but they definitely exist. You don’t have to ignore that reality to avoid being bigoted towards trans people.
thiel does have a type, young hot male models that he can suck the youth(blood) out of including thier souls, i think thiel is a better soul stealer than the lich mcconnel .
I believe i remember that he’s actually pro trans, or peoples’ right to transition, but it comes from his negative views on beauty and body image. He’s like a “everyone unattractive should get surgery and if you’re really unattractive get sex surgery.” I think that’s harmful, and just dumb.
That’s the stupidest shit (what clav said about transition being beauty care).
Nobody can see that you’ve had bottom surgery when your clothes are on, if you want to wear something revealing you can tuck or pack.
Clavicular, Andrew Tate, Nick Fuentes etc are self-loathing gay dudes.
clav is pretty obvious, since thiel created his persona to push a manosphere grifter into the limelight. plus thiel likely also take some of clavicular blood from time to time to.
“Gender affirming care” means gender affirming for everyone. The same people who hate on trans people getting it are the ones who constantly get breast enlargments, fat reductions, plastic surgery, etc. When they call gender affirming care unnatural and ban it, that magically always only applies to trans and poor people
Never forget to point out the most common* form of gender affirming care is chest/breast reduction for men/young boys.
*maybe a factoid, but I’ve seen it in several places I wouldn’t expect a falsehood to hold up
I’d never heard of this person before, except last night at a party someone mentioned them. No one else had heard of him. I’m okay not knowing who online people are.
he is bankrolled by thiel, to offer up a new manosphere grifter. (Tate, J peterson, roegan) isnt enough.
Wouldn’t be surprised at the least, but do you have a source for this?
I pray this reaches you so I’m not the only old person burdened with this knowledge. I’m sorry, it’s the only way to rid myself of the curse.
Clavicular is an online “looks maxer” who preaches that the only thing that matters in life is your physical appearance, which should be improved at all cost. He suggests methods such as “bone smashing”, methamphetamine, and plastic surgery to achieve a facial structure that is as close as possible to some arbitrary ratios that they consider to be ideal. He is extremely famous with the youth, some of whom have followed in his footsteps to disastrous effect.
He also ran a man over with a car, pulled a gun on someone who came to his door, and injected erection medication into his dick with Adam22 (as bro’s do).
Now you know. I’m sorry. Pass it on to someone else as quick as you can, or else Clavicular will start chasing you! /s
If you say clavicular three times in a bathroom mirror, he’ll appear and chase you with a hammer to even our your cheek bones
This is the internet equivalent of showing someone a haunted VHS tape.
SEVEN DAYS!
Okay, wow, thanks for the summary. How the hell do these folks get popular in the first place?
for clav, he suddenly started blanketing social media no thanks tho Peter thiel, who seems to pushing him as the new “gen-z manosphere dude”, thiel likely is also into him too(his last BF was defenestrated in 24)
Yeah… if you can doge the looks-maxing thing entirely, you’re way better off. In the end it’s just warped young people doing weird things so a computer algorithm will give them money.
Yeah, this will be a generational divide I have no problem crossing. If someone names a person to me and they have only one name and it sounds stupid, I’ll just assume they’re an online personality and that I don’t care who they are.
And one step further, it’s just staggering to me that these people who are YouTube/tiktok/Instagram famous are considered by younger generations in the same way a millennial like myself would consider actors, people who actually did stuff, versus people who got popular doing shitty pranks or stealing other “content creators’” works and slapping a watermark on it.
Millennials had our share of people that were famous just for being famous. Paris Hilton anyone? We’ve always had influencers, people famous for no particular accomplishments or creative works. I actually prefer the modern version. The past versions were mostly folks from very wealthy backgrounds who came into the limelight due to family connections. If you’re already around a bunch of celebrities and media types because your family is incredibly wealthy, it’s easy for someone to translate that access into fame of their own.
In contrast, at least modern influencers have a decent shot at being from humble backgrounds. They’re still vapid and famous just for being famous, but at least they had to hustle to earn any amount of fame in the first place.
To be fair to Paris Hilton, she has managed to close down a company through litigation, whose business is to instill “tough love” on delinquent children in a boot camp but only caused trauma. I wasn’t quite expecting that from her.
It is a generational divide to not consider streaming as “doing stuff,” but that’s a divide I’m ok crossing.
To a certain extent, a lot of streamers do a lot more stuff than actors.
Actors book a job, so some acting, maybe do a promo tour for their movie, that’s it.
Most “influencers” or streamers at least start out doing everything themselves. They need to understand the streaming tech, know how to configure OBS studio, how to edit video, understand the camera, the lighting, if they’re using make up they’re doing it themselves, they need to know how to do their own marketing, etc. And, if they’re live-streaming they need to develop the skill of interacting with their audience while they’re doing something else. Without that parasocial relationship with the audience, they don’t get big, so they need to stay on top of what their chat is saying. Sometimes that’s on top of doing something else like playing a demanding video game.
So, I think streamers / influencers are often doing a more impressive job than actors. For many streamers / influencers I’m much less interested in them. I often have less respect for the way they make money, since it’s so vapid and consumerist. On the other hand, I do admit that it can be a lot of work to master all those domains.
And the consistency required, especially for steaming.
Disappear for a month and lose 30% of your audience, it’s brutal
Yeah the hate is weird. I’m not the biggest stream watcher, but I can respect the medium. Streamers are just doing the modern version of what AM talk radio personalities like Rush Limbaugh did. Not in terms of content or politics, but in terms of format. Limbaugh ran multi-hour long shows reacting to news and headlines. His listeners primarily listened passively, letting the radio run in the background of daily life. He would take calls and engage with his audience directly. Streaming is just modern talk radio.
He would take calls and engage with his audience directly.
Lol very rarely did he do this. His show (which I unfortunately had to listen to a lot because of various right-wing bosses I worked for) was 99% just him talking and talking and talking. Taking calls led to the very slight possibility of his having to argue against people who disagreed with him, something he was terrible at. On his TV show, in fact, he once famously had the entire audience cleared out because a small number of people had shown up to heckle him.
A single caller turned me away from Rush and got me started thinking about the content I was consuming.
Dude calls in to say he looked into getting a wind turbine and the math didn’t work out. When he brought up the cost to hook it to the grid, Limbaugh was laughing his ass off.
“Wait! Wait! It requires POWER to run! HAR HAR HAR!”
The man tried to explain that the connection would pay him when he generated more than he used. Limbaugh was an intelligent man, he knew where the conversation was going and kept cutting off the man’s explanation.
Despite the caller’s math as to why wind wouldn’t work for him, Limbaugh wouldn’t allow the man to make one positive point. That turned me off so hard I started seeking other viewpoints. 15-years later and I’m into Fully Automated Luxury Communism.
Enjoy my screenshot from the day that vile man died:
Was that supposed to entertain the idea that I should regard streamers with the same respect I would Rush Limbaugh?
If so, mission accomplished.
It’s just a different focal length
Gonna try that as a pickup line
“Yo gurl, wanna see my 200mm?”
This. Aside from the lips and eyebrows, it’s the only real difference.
I’m tired of seeing people talk about the worst people all day long. I see people I really don’t give a fuck about all damn day long, and upon learning even a little bit about them, wonder why the fuck anybody even cares to keep bringing them up. Even the jokes are a hate ritual.
He doesn’t matter. He never mattered. Whatever he does with his life is none of my business and I really don’t give a fuck what happens to him. So why do I have to see him against my will on a regular basis?
Thank you. I don’t give a shit about this weirdo and nobody I know even knows who he is. I’m here because I’m trying to get away from tabloids and TV and media that talk about irrelevant nonsense.
In a society where everyday, people are trampled on by a corporate first policy… they feel a need to try and strike back. So they do. Sadly it actually gives many of these horrible people joy to be mentioned at all. And it actually enables them.
He doesn’t get enough hate because the majority of people who aren’t terminally online have no idea who he is. People like him feed on hate so it’s best to just bury him.
I am.pretty terminally onlime but I have no idea who this is.
Good, he is but one of 100.000 grifters anyway.
you being terminally “onlime” doesn’t make you part of the terminally online group. You just sit on limes.
As the song goes, “I’m so much cooler on limes.”
You just sit on limes.
Sit-truss.
Limes are often a little too big. I’m more of a clementine, myself.
6 feet under, just to make sure, right?
why hate on someone when they mostly aren’t hurting anyone but themselves?
off topic, but why don’t you upvote your own comments? For me it automatically does it when I comment
I don’t think comments should misrepresent the amount of support they have
do you not support your own comments?
They are hurting other people by teaching young boys that they can treat women like objects.
Isn’t this the guy saying something like “we’re trying to make Israel look good”.
I’d argue trying to rehabilitate the image of a genocidal state harms many people.
Ooh yeah. He just visit Israel to promote how normal of a country it is. I’m the middle of a fucking genocide.
Spewing misogyny online hurts all women
It hurts men too by feeding into the whole divide and conquer game.
The kinds of men who are indoctrinated by the manosphere will have a much harder time realizing that women are just fellow humans.
This guy encourages impressionable young men to smash their faces with hammers to sculpt their bones.
if some people chose to hit their heads with hammers because an influencer told them to they were already a lost cause.
No, everyone was stupid about something at some point in their life, if you were not then good but guys my age fall for looksmaxxing because they’re alone, desparate and watching rich people get girls and what not.
did they learn from their mistakes?
How long until I don’t have to hear about or see them again? We’ve already gotten rid of (mostly) other toxic influencers.
They are sticking experimental grey market peptides into their veins, eating Adderall like tic tacs and are prone to take part in a whole list of other dangerous activities.
So, probably not too long.
“IT PUTS THE FUCKING LOTION IN THE BASKET!!!”
IT PUTS THE LOTION ON IT’S SKIN BECAUSE HOLY FUCK IT NEEDS IT!
I have no clue about the looksmaxxing scene, so forgive me for asking: Which one is supposed to be before and which one is after?
The left is before
Leif is B4
Left is before.
Left 4 Dead 2
Who?
Some hateful idiot who’s addicted to cosmetic surgery and says men should want to look as manly as possible
🤣 😭
Edit: is he genuinely okay? Wait, no, I know he’s not.
I thought his deal was looking bony and masculine though. The left-hand image he has a wide skull, the right hand image he becomes a cute little anime character.
So he effectively is or has been suffering from gender dysphoria this whole time?? Like even though he doesn’t want to become a woman, he’s uncomfortable with how his masculinity presents itself and can’t seem to make up his mind on how to look
The other thing i have to say is, based on what I know about clavicular (and his crew), I think the way they live is really unhealthy. It seems like he’s going through life developments at 10x accelerated speed - i thought he was completely settled with his appearance and had already undergone surgery to repair what he didn’t like (eye/facial deformity he was born with, i think).
I believe that by doing a lot of drugs and streaming almost 24/7, he has a twisted sense of reality and view of himself. I think this is why he’s like
''ah! I should do life changing surgery next week!"
“But Clavicular, you did cosmetic surgery just the last week!”
“Thog no caaar”
Also if his gimmick is all about streaming stuff to do with his looks and pickup artistry, then he actually needed to do this shit to keep his audience. Which is grim. He might not know how to transition back to normal life, and will keep on getting body modification ad infinitum.

Maybe he wants to look more nonbinary as in gender ambiguous?
Yup, the algorithms are promoting body dysmorphia to men as well as women now. I guess that’s equality?
yeah it seems more like body dysmorphia than gender dysphoria.
Bugger, I got my terms confused
Reminds of this one from a while back:
