Pharyngula 

A staggeringly popular biology blog that keeps a running public list of its killfile inhabitants

While one of the most egregious offenses that can be perpetrated by its commenters is “wanking”, readers/supporters of this blog seem to be unaware of the fact Pharyngula, itself, is one big wank fest.
Buddy was thinking about trolling Pharyngula in an effort to make it on to the "High Crimes and Misdemeanors" killfile list but was worried that his neck would hurt from all the cringing caused by reading the self-congratulatory, half-witted, smarmy retorts.

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
