Grammatically you’re _____ -American for one generation. After that you’re just American. Which makes African American super confusing and weird.
- Comment on [deleted] 6 days ago:
People who seem reasonable still say there are good people on both sides. I don’t understand that at all! My hairstylist moved here from vietnam as a kid. Last week i made a comment about bezos and he actually said, “both sides…”. I thought my brain was going to pop.

- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Don’t go to the ER. They’ll charge you an outrageous amount. Call your doc and see if you can just schedule a nurse visit. Before you go to urgent care, call them and let them know what you need and ask what they’ll charge. Make sure you don’t go to one that says ER

Don’t drink from anything in your room - glasses, coffee maker, faucet! Always wear shoes! Remove the bed spread. Put your suitcase on an elevated non fabric surface.
- Comment on what works for you to learn large numbers of technical / medicinal jargon? 2 weeks ago:
This is the way. I just bought a study guide for a test prep and it came with flash cards and instructions to separate them by daily (don’t know) and 3x/wk (kinda know). Choose something you like to do- watch a show, have a snack, browse social media, etc., and do the cards before you do the things.
- Comment on A Louisiana Mom Has Pled Not Guilty to Giving Her Daughter Pills for a ‘Criminal Abortion’ 2 weeks ago:
There are a few organizations that will provide meds even if you’re not pregnant in case you need them in the future. I believe shelf life is 4 years.

Raising Arizona

I had a school kid who only knew how to get home by following the bus route. Maybe it’s like that.
- Comment on House Censures Al Green for Disrupting Trump Address to Congress 3 weeks ago:
Normally i upvote news as a thanks for sharing, but I’m not sure breitbart counts.
- Comment on work related: is this something only an autistic would ask? 3 weeks ago:
Your question seems reasonable and their reaction seems unreasonable. Either way, you don’t have to work the extra shift.
- Comment on low iq in love with high iq person, is that bad?? 3 weeks ago:
Kindness, compassion, sense of humor, open mind, love of learning, and the self confidence to not let yourself be trampled are the qualities a partner will be attracted to.
Both of my sons are very smart and they’ve both dated women who were likely above and below them. The ones who stick around the longest are the ones who have the personality to match theirs- and to stand up to them when they’re being jerky.
I love that my husband is smart, but i hate that he can be difficult to work with on projects because he’s not used to being wrong.

I don’t think you should be teeting at work.
- Comment on Struggling With Errors, DOGE Deletes Billions More From List of Savings 3 weeks ago:
How long before the savings are negative?
- Comment on What are the exact ramifications and consequences of the recent meeting with Zelenskyy and Trump/JD? 4 weeks ago:
I would expect the first consequence - if it hasn’t happened already - would be for other countries to recognize that they can’t share intelligence with us and shouldn’t trust any they get from us.
- Comment on What’s the difference between pansexuality and bisexuality? 4 weeks ago:
This is so far over my head - i don’t understand it. I know my comment will likely be taken as offensive or condescending, but it’s really not the intent. I am so confused by sexuality/gender discussions. I don’t understand having a label that’s inclusive or exclusive of who someone will or won’t date. Doesn’t that change based on the people you meet? If you label one way, you meet someone you find attractive, you have chemistry, and then you find that they have parts that don’t fit your label, what do you do? I guess it’s part of dating - to weed out what you’re usually not attracted to? I partnered/married young, so that aspect of dating wasn’t openly discussed in the same way- we didn’t have the common words to describe like we have today. Also, being hetero and having mostly hetero friends, i guess we didn’t spend time thinking about how our relationships were similar or different from each others. I definitely understand putting descriptions of any kind of love out there so young people know they’re not alone, but beyond that I’m lost.
- Comment on i took an iq test and it was nice and i took my time doing it but the answer was 86, is that bad?? 4 weeks ago:
No one will ever ask. Most people have never taken a test. Scores from free tests online will probably not be the same as those given by a neuropsych, diagnostician, etc.
- Comment on Why some people go fulk grey hair in their 30s? 4 weeks ago:
I think grey hair is just genetics. Regarding skin care, i think a lot of men don’t really know what to buy or what do with it. My husband always used hair products but no skin care. I bought eye cream and moisturizer for him and now he uses it daily. Also, sun protection is important. Everyone knows that, but it’s not pushed enough for daily use.
- Comment on How to effectively protest outside my House representative's office 4 weeks ago:
Have you checked 50501?
- Comment on went to the local food bank today 4 weeks ago:
Our local food bank changed how they give out items. Now you get a shopping cart, walk the aisles, choose a certain number of proteins, vegetables, healthcare items, etc., take it to the checkout and bag it. It might not always be great stuff but at least you get a choice…
- Comment on Does anyone else feel an inexplicable urge to talk to people early in the morning/late at night? 5 weeks ago:
Brain fills up and wakes up earlier than body. Empty a bit and then rerack.
- Comment on Is it irrational for me to hate and despise every single American at this point? 5 weeks ago:
Germany is voting soon. Will you hate all of them based on the results of that election? If you hate a group of people based on your belief that they’re all stupid, worthless, etc., you sound a lot like…
