- Comment on 32, f. Are there any dating sites that are actually free and don't suddenly force me to pay to actually use the site? 3 weeks ago:
Do the bots at least use AI to chat? Because that’s going to be better than the one word answers I get from the real people.

I go to sleep at 1 (plus socks and sometimes a hoodie)
I wake up at 20
Sometimes I wake up warm and strip a layer or two off. But I’ve been like this my whole life so I usually don’t even wake up when clothes start coming off.
I don’t sleep-walk, I sleep-strip.
And I’m VERY careful about where I fall asleep.

It’s also a great name for a cover band.
Butt rock covers of gospel songs perhaps?

As a single guy who lived with a married couple, I can say it’s awesome and doesn’t have to be sex related.
It cut down on cost of living and made everything easier. A little awkward when they bicker and didn’t always enjoy playing the marriage counselor role. But overall it was great.
I think it also worked because sex wasn’t part of the relationship.
- Comment on no way right 5 weeks ago:
Everything is ‘2 weeks’. It’s the only time frame he gives. Probably read somewhere that the news cycle is only 2 weeks so he thinks everyone will forget by then. (They will.)
- Comment on Too many non-working holidays in America. 5 weeks ago:
Like everything he says/does there is a slight truth buried deep in there.
Some ‘workers’ really don’t want it. They are called corporate middle management. They don’t want the wage slaves to disrupt profit or crowd the spaces that they will be using because management will still take the day off.

Regenerative Agriculture / Permaculture
If you plan to lease out to a farmer, find one that won’t fill it with herbicides and pesticides. And maybe look to only lease part of it while you work to recover other parts.
I’m looking to buy land that needs to be recovered and have the budget that will likely lead me to a place like this that doesn’t have direct road access. Good luck!

As a manual driver living in Seattle and driving a large truck, I can say it’s totally unnecessary if you have the right skills. The handbrake start is a handicap unless you’re Dr ving a vehicle with a worn out clutch.

I had a Rambler Ambassador that came with push-button shifting on the dash!

Anyone who defends a Nazi is a Nazi.
There is no grey area.
You can’t support some Nazi policies.

get out while you still can.
Fuck that.
I know how to deal with Nazis
- Comment on [deleted] 6 months ago:
100% Nazi
Anyone who defends this Nazi is a Nazi. Full stop.

Like poorly trained dogs, they attack anything different.

Police harass minorities. If you live somewhere where you are not considered a minority, you’ll likely not have any issues at all. But if you travel to someplace where you are the minority or are obviously not normal looking, you should expect to be harassed by local law enforcement.

I don’t know why you’re downvoted.
OP, it’s your kid. It’s past time to figure out what they are into. I promise there is something that you can at least get a little into.
My kid likes banjo/mountain music. Not my thing but I enjoy seeing live shows with them because they enjoy it and I enjoy live shows.

You get health insurance?

On the same take, we used to get 15min breaks every 2 or 3 hours. Then the government wrote laws that said we had to get at least 10min breaks every 4 hours. So now we get less because you will only ever get the minimum.
We get less breaks and they have to be shorter than what the average was before.
I’m not against labor laws, but I’ve been working nearly four decades now and I’m still getting bent over every opportunity.

Sounds like you haven’t been in the American work force.
They can fire you for any reason. Or no reason. Nothing matters because if you’re a wage slave nobody cares.
Plus they probably made you sign a waiver to work there saying that you couldn’t ever sue them for any reason.

- Comment on I will spend Christmas alone 7 months ago:
Same here. But it’s also the first year I didn’t get left behind out of convenience.
Tomorrow will be just another day for me, like all holidays are anymore. But at least I didn’t have to spend money and stress about making ungrateful people happy.

It’s not ‘is the glass half full or half empty’.
The question is ‘why is the glass?’
Once you know this, the first question is easy to answer.
- Comment on Would you ever have the nerve to do THIS? 7 months ago:
I was uninvited from my sister’s wedding. But I was told it was at a public venue, so I could come watch the ceremony from a distance and I could still send a wedding gift.
I didn’t care about being uninvited. I was only upset that they made Dad call me. If you’re going to be like that at least have the balls to make the call yourself.

The best is when you’re sharing a regular story and someone else has to explain how fucked up it was.
Like I’m sorry, I thought that was normal and was sharing because I thought you could relate. No, I don’t need the contact info for your therapist.
