- Comment on What age gap is too big of an age gap if someone's in their early 30's? 1 day ago:
I think you stumbled upon the Republican manual for dating in the 21st century
- Comment on If you are paying to use "AI", who are you paying and what are your regular usecases? 3 days ago:
Just because you don’t know it doesn’t mean it isn’t a word. I use it at work daily.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 3 days ago:
It doesn’t sound like you’re surrounding yourself with the best people. They sound quite superficial
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 3 days ago:
And once you are 30+ it’s really really hard to form close friendships
I really don’t think age has much to do with it. I’m in my 30s and honestly find it easier since people are more adult at this age. People are less likely to play stupid games
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 5 days ago:
It makes me so angry with “the patriarchy”, because it isn’t just keeping women down, it’s also hurting and sometimes killing men.
I agree, I wish more men would realize that feminism also benefits men. Even things as small as being able to freely express yourself are hurt by the patriarchy
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 5 days ago:
I knew of one person here though we never actually met before moving. Also happened to end up meeting a long time internet friend.
Aside from those two, my partner and I searched for community events and went to quite a few. Met a lot of people there. Community events are honestly a fantastic jumping off point.
Also made one or two friends randomly just hanging at a park.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 5 days ago:
The sheer number of men who suddenly have no support in their life because their relationship has ended
Do men really not have any friends? I just moved to a new country and made like 5 close friends in the first few months, so that blows my mind in a sad way
- Comment on A real question about trans athletes and records 1 week ago:
I’ll add, as a trans person with the athleticism of a rock, about 75% of the sports debate is coming from transphobes. The proof of this is that they’re fighting to get trans people banned from darts and chess
- Comment on President Trump shows President Zelenskyy and President Macron his 4 More Years hats 1 week ago:
Adolf Hitler shows President Lebrun and PM Sikorski his collection of Nazi armbands (colorized)
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 week ago:
You’re not giving more choice if it relies on you purposefully taking away things. That’s called being predatory.
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 2 weeks ago:
Sadly not every fight has a union available
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 2 weeks ago:
They’re backed by billionaires and landlords

From my experience with a different fight in NY, these people don’t give a shit. They have no shame, they only care about their golden kickbacks.
- Comment on They made his car "cease & desist" 2 weeks ago:
It was praising the cyberfuck
- Comment on what's the best material for wiping out a cast iron skillet? 2 weeks ago:
Everyone has a different 8 step program to cleaning cast irons. I just scrape the fuck out of it with a chainmail “sponge” and water, maybe some coarse salt or s pinch of soap if it’s nasty. I dry it with a towel. I’ve had mine for yeaaaaars and it looks just fine.
- Comment on Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet? 3 weeks ago:
I still have a 720p dumb TV and I’m not getting rid of it. But my eyesight is terrible so 720p, 1080p, 4k don’t really make much difference to me.
- Comment on Charging to tour rental properties... 3 weeks ago:
If you have an agent that drives to the rental property, talks to you let you in walks around with you for 15 minutes maybe
Half the time they just send you a (usually wrong) door code or tell you to knock on the door and ask the existing tenants.
But also, it should never be on the renter (the customer) to pay a broker whose only job is to post the property on rental sites
- Comment on Developer wants to build 60 apartments and 24 parking spots. New York politician tells him to build less housing and more parking spots 3 weeks ago:
Speaking of Coney Island and corruption
There’s a shitty developer trying to bulldoze the heart of Coney Island (the amusement park, museum, theater, etc) to build a shitty casino. Literally no one in the community wants this and we’ve been fighting back, but the city doesn’t care about what the locals want. Article
Coney is my performance home so I’m trying to raise awareness

Guitar honestly isn’t that hard
- Comment on The White House Rose Garden was replaced by pavement 3 weeks ago:
Can I sign up for this mailing list?
- Comment on Especially the Ø... 4 weeks ago:
My point was more about it being common in meeting minutes. I can’t say I’ve ever seen it in use as such despite sitting through a decade’s worth of meetings, though I also don’t doubt that it’s used in certain specific contexts
- Comment on Especially the Ø... 4 weeks ago:
“common” really depends on context

Nvidia CEO couldn’t do my job for an hour, and I work in tech
- Comment on Public transit in Chengdu, China versus Toronto, Canada 5 weeks ago:
Having moved to Toronto from NYC, transit could be much worse. NYC’s is larger to support the greater population but nearly everything about it is absolute trash tier, and it’s useless if you need to go to a borough that doesn’t start with M
- Comment on What should I get my online friend for their birthday? 1 month ago:
RimWorld or Terraria maybe?
- Comment on What are you doing when you call someone, don't leave a voicemail or text, they call you back right away but you don't answer? 1 month ago:

Well that was a plot twist
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I’m fluent in English and Spanish, et je suis en train d’apprendre le français
Though I will note that of course, learning a language that’s in the same “family” of languages as your mother tongue will always be easier, regardless of age. The jump to Japanese or Arabic from English is far greater.
