Never had that, but I find this to be an acceptable compromise!
Every bathroom everywhere should have a bidet.
Team America?!
Is this the plot to beetlejuice 2?
Isn’t central time a bit of a mess due to some states observing daylight savings time and others not? Is this 7pm daylight or standard?
What’s it like being a monster?
Yes! I also have the rice cooker. Probably the two most used kitchen gadgets I have!
Zojirushi bread makers are amazing
I know it’s the sources title but it’s a confusing one. For a minute, I was surprised that there were a group of Republican attorney generals blocking climate laws that were being pushed by the oil companies.
Turns out the title should be Group of US Republican attorneys general, funded by oil firms and dark money, blocking climate laws.
What exactly is this sub?
AI written articles about potential dystopian outcomes?
Although, I think it’d be amazing if everyone’s salary was published. At my work, we have a spreadsheet where we all post our salaries.
I’ve seen plenty of people equate toxic masculinity to “traditional masculinity” (for lack of a better term) and make fun of guys that fit that mold or, alternatively, get very defensive as though you were attacking their hobbies.
I agree with your sentiment though. I just think… since toxic masculinity hasn’t been clearly defined and what’s toxic will vary significantly from one person to another… that a much better term is “prescribed masculinity”. It also helps prevent that knee jerk reaction some will have when you bring up the term. (I find most folks will agree that prescribed masculinity is a fucked concept, but may get defensive over the concept of “toxic masculinity”)
Also I’m not a car person but that’s a slick looking car.
This is a bit off topic, but I really dislike terms like toxic masculinity or traditional masculinity.
I prefer talking about it in terms of “prescribed masculinity” which I think is the actual problem here. If you enjoy being a sports bro, who lifts weights, and is really into cars. Awesome! If you enjoy table top games and reading, awesome! Something completely different? Believe it or not, also awesome! As long as you’re not using it as an excuse to be an asshole to someone, men should pursue whatever will make their life the most fulfilling. But as far as defining masculine as some specific traits or interests, fuck that noise.
14 days later… but this was an interesting story and it even had something resembling a happy ending! Thanks for sharing it.
Sounds like you have some good introspection skills and were able to identify that the problem was, at least partially, with you… and were able to get over that to salvage your friendship. His wife even seems supportive of your friendship, even though you’re not her jam.
“Britain’s worst attack on children occurred in 1996, when 43-year-old Thomas Hamilton shot 16 kindergarten pupils and their teacher dead in a school gymnasium in Dunblane, Scotland. The U.K. subsequently banned the private ownership of almost all handguns.”

Woah! This guy does suck. But, why won’t your wife very reasonably tell him “no”? He’d throw a fit, but he’s asking an awful lot and giving nothing. You two will have to work more to support him… and that’s not fair. Is he going to be there for the next four years?! Does he pay some rent, utilities, and cover food? Does he have household responsibilities?
For all that is good, you need to convince your wife that this is a terrible idea.
Sure, but this article is a “Joe Biden Bad” article and immediately cites a report that directly corresponds to a Trump policy… without even giving any indication that it was a Trump policy and that the report was related to a specific time after that policy was instated… 7 years ago. All of this to show that “sanctions are bad” and since Biden has more sanction, Biden bad. If they’re not going to provide critical context, then they’re shitty journalists, they’ve compromised their credibility and it’s not worth reading. Any of their conclusions are suspect. I’m not even defending Biden here…
Also, Joe Biden isn’t even running for president… so what’s the point of the smear campaign?
I was interested and clicked the first source to find this:
As many as 40,000 people may have died in Venezuela as a result of US sanctionsthat made it harder for ordinary citizens to access food, medicine and medical equipment, a new report has claimed.
The report, published by the Centre for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) a progressive, Washington DC-based think tank, says those deaths took place following the imposition of sanctions in the summer of 2017.
Summer of 2017… hmm… which makes me doubt every other word in the article.
You’re living in luxury, my fellow lemming.
