  Thank God I wasn’t the only one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So, is the USA screwed?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It might take a long time to fix, but someday we will recover.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can't be obsessed and anxious if I plan ahead⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the context of the questionnaire?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"Shia LaBeouf"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This one takes me back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Go to brunch at an upscale restaurant and find the table filled with white women drunk on mimosas. One of them is always a lawyer. Befriend her. It’s easiest if you’re gay, or can pretend to be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the tallest pyramid we'd be able to build? Can we reach space?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That was an incredibly interesting read. Do you know of any other planned mega structures like that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨people who drink, how long do your hangovers last?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The older I get, the longer hangovers last. I’ve gotten pretty good at squashing them. The secret is to take a multivitamin plus b-12 and iron before bed, along with plenty of water and electrolytes. If I still feel off in the morning, a fruit smoothie with kale sets me straight.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨speaking as someone who’s never watched grey’s anatomy, why is meredith grey often considered one of the first pick mes in history?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not the guy you’re responding to, but if you want a really interesting take on sci-fi mixed with medieval fantasy then check our Jaran by Kate Elliott.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨speaking as someone who’s never watched grey’s anatomy, why is meredith grey often considered one of the first pick mes in history?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been entirely too long since I read those books!

  I didn’t think me and the other guy were arguing, though. There were no bad feelings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨She would be proud⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Your grandma had amazing taste (pun intended).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨speaking as someone who’s never watched grey’s anatomy, why is meredith grey often considered one of the first pick mes in history?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think our definition of “pick me girl” is different which is why we’re not seeing eye-to-eye.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨speaking as someone who’s never watched grey’s anatomy, why is meredith grey often considered one of the first pick mes in history?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The article does not say that the actress felt that Meredith was a “pick me girl”. It highlighted one specific scene that she felt was cringe, but fans of the show loved.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uniquely American⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s absolutely not what it means. As someone who went from homelessness to 6-figures, smart moves don’t require stomping on others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨She would be proud⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I was the lucky grandchild tasked with getting rid of my grandma’s spicy book collection after she passed. There were so, so many of them.

  If the covers are anything to go by, we have similar taste in men.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨speaking as someone who’s never watched grey’s anatomy, why is meredith grey often considered one of the first pick mes in history?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been binging Grey’s (currently on the Covid season) and wouldn’t consider Mer to be a “pick me girl”. Especially after Derek, she has focused on her career and family and only has occasional flings. Her self esteem doesn’t come from any sort of external validation.

  A quote from this season about Mer sums it up well: You’ve always been your own person. A force of nature. You’ve never needed anyone but you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Parts of Playstation network might be back.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I was playing Apex and any time there was a Playstation player on my team the framerate dropped down to like 5FPS for minutes at a time. So I think it’s still struggling

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat that ramen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Look at Mr. Moneybags over here with his egg.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat that ramen⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Only if you get student loans. Just don’t go to college! It’s not like the world needs doctors, scientists, engineers, dentists, teachers, meteorologists, judges, librarians, well-educated citizens in general… Oh wait.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I to live dangerously⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t tell you when you’re growing up that farting will eventually become the most dangerous part of your day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some laws exist if everyone is expected to just break them?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I haven’t driven over the speed limit in a decade in the US and have anecdotally never experienced the behavior you’re describing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If a country and email providers in that country block my email provider, but I use a custom domain, does that affect emails sent to/from @MyDomainName.com?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The mail server’s IP typically takes precedence over the registrar’s location.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people indoors at public places always listen to their phone at full volume?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The people I’ve seen do this seem to be trying to establish dominance and are hoping someone confronts them so they can fight. A pissing contest.

  That, or, they are so self-absorbed that they lack the ability to realize that their behavior impacts others.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Respectful Accountability⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve has a difficult day and for some reason this just made me laugh uncontrollably, so hard that I got a bellyache. Thanks for the joy, friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Solarpunk AF⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved seeing models like this in science book as a kid because I’d imagine them as tiny little worlds

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  RIP your inbox

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Worth⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you know that those are special cows? They’re outstanding in their field.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely. It’s a good sign that he’s joking around, and the misogyny appears to be tongue-in-cheek.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Jesus, I can’t fathom how someone would feel that it didn’t affect them. Truly wishing the best for your friend.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Bruh you watched the videos? I uh, guess it’s important to share hobbies with your loved ones.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Video game publishers are starting to use "anti-DEI" as a marketing meme⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Piggy backing off of this, the DEI council at my job ensures that everyone has what they need to succeed in their role. For example, the All Gender restroom didn’t have feminine sanitary products which was troublesome for some of our non binary staff. Instead of forcing them to use the women’s bathroom, we installed a dispenser in the All Gender restroom.

  Also, many of the field employees shower at the office after their shift because it’s dirty work. But the shower facilities were just one big room, high school style, which made several LGBTQ employees uncomfortable. We pushed for individual shower stalls as a DEI effort and now everyone feels more comfortable showering.

  These are things that straight, white, cis people probably wouldn’t think of. The DEI council allows minority voices to be heard.
