- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 day ago:
Its gotten worse because women are no longer forced to stay in or get into shitty, unfulfilling marriages. Men before had guaranteed companionship in the sense that it was societally and financially expected for a woman to stay in a relationship and provide emotional (and physical) companionship. With women becoming more independent, they’re able to leave abusive situations or to avoid getting into them in the first place.
Therefore, if men are not socialized to maintain friendships and no one is being forced to emotionally support them anymore, then they are lonely.

I’m gonna tag you as “unwilling tagee”
Also if it helps, I don’t only tag rude or racist people, I also tag people that say something I enjoy or makes me laugh so one day when I see them again I can give them a compliment.

I’ve definitely seen more trolls and significantly more racist/transphobic people even in just the last few months which is worrying. Maybe it’s like Baader Meinhof effect cause I started tagging them, but it’s certainly frustrating because this site used to feel a lot more friendly.

I love stardew so I disagree with you, but I know the game is not for everyone and definitely know people that would agree with you so I feel the downvoting is a bit unfair for you.
But also SV rocks and you should give it another chance.

Holy fuck the way you worded this made my dumbass brain think Elton John was dead and I almost had an aneurysm.
- Comment on Why do i tip my bartender $2 per drink and per bar food order but 20% when I order food from a waitress? Am I tipping wrong? 6 days ago:
Unpopular opinion, but maybe servers (and most everyone) deserves more than minimum wage. And in not saying the consumer should be paying it, they should be paid their money’s worth by their employer.
Michigan min wage is what like $10? Who the hell can survive on that?
- Comment on When you realize your laptop hasn't been plugged in for the last 4 hours you've been working... 6 days ago:
Marginally related but today was having a meeting with someone who is notorious for not being plugged in. I wish I had a recording of it because she literally went “oh sh-” mid sentence and then was booted as her computer shut down. Impeccable timing.

Can I be annoyed that it’s staged instead of being annoyed that they were filmed without consent?

You know, I was pro-palestine and didn’t want innocent people to die, but now that I am reminded that some of them would harm me
if i colonized their land for 70+ years and forced my way into their homes and murdered them, now I’ve changed my ways. Free, free genocide, I guess? - Comment on They will remember 1 week ago:

Not even just in crashes. Think of all the physical assaults and sore arms that would ensue if these took back to the streets en masse.
- Comment on Is it okay to eat after brushing in the night 2 weeks ago:
If you’re going to do it, at least rinse your mouth after you eat. And actually, according to my hygenist, it’s good practice to always rinse your mouth after you eat.
- Comment on Expand North! So much room up there. 2 weeks ago:
I’d argue the weather as the biggest one, at least for BC. Northern BC is absolutely beautiful but it’s cold af in the winter and burny as hell in the summer. If we’re talking far north in the territories, I know another issue is infrastructure because it’s much more difficult to build/get stuff up there. Though this meme misses a big part of the Indigenous/Inuit population that lives up there.
Also, this country is just fucking huge, like bigger than I think any of us realize. If our population were to spread out, it would be a very thin spread.

It’s okay to cause pain to babies cause they won’t remember… That’s the logic they use for piercing baby’s ears and what they used to say about circumcision right? So it must be okay.

Oh was it made with Dave’s Hot Sauce? I had a customer bring in his own Ultimate Insanity hot sauce to use in a Prairie Fire shot (tequila+hot sauce). Shit looked ROUGH. He let me keep the hot sauce after though and it became one of my partner’s favourites.

No that was too bougie for us, but I did have a string that I had tied from my bed to the light switch. And honestly why did they take away our sticky outy light switches?

Yeah mine does the same to my Bluetooth headphones if I’m near it, but for like the two minutes that I’m microwaving my lunch, who cares. I want to know what the hell OP is using their microwave so much for.

The good thing about forgiveness is that it doesn’t have to be actually granted in order for the person to see the errors in their way and meaningfully repent. Works the other way too, you don’t have to forgive anyone for anything ever (though that can arguably be harmful to yourself).
