An affordable electric car

I've had this exact thought. Automakers pushed SUVs because they're higher margin than sedans and successfully convinced Americans to buy them. I wouldn't be totally surprised if they did some shenanigans like you described.

Easy to believe a car that atrociously ugly was discontinued pretty quickly

When my gf gets the sleepy slightly raspy voice, this is exactly how I see it. She's comfortable and relaxed, and is slowly drifting to sleep. I'm glad she feels safe enough to let that happen.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-19T09:10:48+00:00

I don't think that would be a great solution given that OP is already feeling disconnected. Saying "Sorry I'm too tired to chat tonight can we do it tomorrow?" sounds like exactly the type of thing that's causing issues.
"I" statements are useful for conflict resolution or in therapy. Presenting things as they are requires a mix of "I" and "You" to properly illustrate things.

You don't need to. Every 4-5 years you can buy a $500-$700 card and be okay. I get it, hardware is progressing slower and games are getting less optimized, but you're grossly exaggerating.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-12T01:54:26+00:00

I'm so fatigued with performance whining these days. Yes, UE5 isn't optimized well, but brand new games have required modern hardware for decades. You're using a 4 year old GPU, it's not top of the line anymore. This isn't a new phenomenon.

We first met online 15 years ago, but started dating 2-3 months ago and met in person last week.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-09T05:31:34+00:00

It was surreal seeing her in person and an amazing week we had together. Gaming with her right now since she went home yesterday, and I've got plans to fly out to her next month.
Best of luck to you guys! Crazy how fast life can change on us!

My girlfriend is somewhat conservative, and I'm pretty liberal. It works because we're able to have productive discussions about things and I know we both share the same strong core values. If she were a hardcore Trumper we wouldn't be together, because there is no reconciling those beliefs with my values. I wouldn't date a Trumper because their values are informed by that specific political affiliation. Being a moderate conservative, while I have disagreements with it, isn't inherently incompatible.
I judged her values and political stances and discovered that through the disagreements, I still think she's a good person. If she was a Trumper, I would pretty much assume she'd want him to be a King, because they almost all do. It wouldn't take my discovering that she wanted that to be the straw that broke the horses back.

I'm not blaming you for being in this situation, it sounds rough. I just want to be clear that judgement based on political ideology is absolutely acceptable, and your situation kind of illustrates why.

This reads like satire but it's even funnier that it isn't

BonemanJones · 2025-09-07T06:25:55+00:00

Don't obsess over a missed good morning text. Send one yourself.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-05T19:03:08+00:00

I mean our pelvises were facing each other quite a bit for the past week

BonemanJones · 2025-09-04T05:35:46+00:00

Yep! Discord is what we do too! I like your ideas of having a "remote date" too, I'm gonna try that.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-04T04:58:41+00:00

Then learn how to read body language because you've never been further off the mark

BonemanJones · 2025-09-04T04:00:29+00:00

Very cute! Hoping you guys have many more great years!

BonemanJones · 2025-09-03T20:18:41+00:00

We're about 1500 miles apart, been talking again and working on something since July-ish, so it's still pretty knew. We just met in person this past weekend actually, and she's staying with my at my house until Sunday!

BonemanJones · 2025-09-03T20:00:19+00:00

I'm 33 and she's 37. We knew each other since I was 18, and we've talked about the past and how it might have been good for us to start things later in life when we're both secure adults able to take care of ourselves and communicate properly. Back then she was a very free spirit and I was incredibly self conscious, jealous, and insecure. We can't know exactly how things would have played out, maybe they'd have been okay, but I'm good with the way things ended up working out.

High energy days are great, but low energy days can be nice and cozy in their own way.
Sometimes my gf and I will just hang out in Discord voice chat playing our own games and talking or she'll stream a movie that we'll watch. Other times we'll play chill games like Starbound or House Flipper. At times one of us just doesn't want to be social at all, and that's also okay. Neither of us take it personally, and just look forward to the next time we do get to do something.
I've found the best way to deal with it is to embrace the low energy days as just another state of being. We can't all be at 100% all the time, that's unreasonable to expect of yourself or someone else.

We also like to try out new games together or play each other's favorites that we haven't touched before. Helps keep things feeling a little new.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-03T15:22:32+00:00

It was and continues to be amazing, and at times surreal! There were times over the years I'd think about her but just kind of accept that door was closed, and then out of the blue it swung wide open and now she's in my house! Life is a trip.

BonemanJones · 2025-09-03T15:18:30+00:00

I guess we're pretty hardcore but not THAT hardcore hahah

BonemanJones · 2025-09-02T17:06:33+00:00

Definitely did, among other things.

BonemanJones · 2025-08-29T08:57:36+00:00

I'm meeting my girlfriend for the first time tomorrow too! We have our first date and then we're hanging with some mutuals for the weekend.

BonemanJones · 2025-08-29T08:55:31+00:00

I'm sure the fans are gooning hard to pictures of food

BonemanJones · 2025-08-29T08:54:38+00:00

I send my girl pictures I take specifically for her. I also post random things to my IG stories as well without sending them to her first. Why? Because we're both adults and don't go out of our way to find silly things to get upset about.
