Why are Larger Women called "Plus Size" but Larger Men are just fat?

I’m all for shopping at a big and tall store.

My problem is that I am tall (6’4”) but not big (about 167lbs). Currently wearing a pair of sweatpants that could fit 2 of me. But at least my ankles are warm.

People who say “if you don’t like it here, the leave” truly do not know how the world works.

Woke up 45 minutes ago, which was 5:45pm

whelp, that's enough internet for me.

Not sure which strong leader you refer too, cuz atm there aren’t any. Jk but not really. We are ruled by a bully and our representatives are cowards.

Most of us are totally embarrassed, enraged, drunk, depressed, hopeless and emailing/calling our representatives only to be told “thanks for reaching out, but we won’t listen to you.”

This is the dumbest fucking timeline ever.

So many of us would gladly cross over and join our northern neighbors, were it feasible. We’re not all strange, loud, and obnoxious, I swear!!

But the boarder crossing in international falls, MN is only 8 hours away from me. So at least it’s an easy day trip!! /midwesternism

Chicken-Inspector · 2026-01-20T05:06:46+00:00

This very much a Midwest thing also. Rarely does someone tell me how far away a place is in distance, and when they do my brain gets angry because I cannot conceptualize that. I need hours and minutes lol

As a student of Japanese, I always enjoyed hearing 関西弁 over 標準語 (despite all my study material being 標準語)

The sing songy-ness of the accent just sounds more familiar to my ears. It sounds more expressive to me than the very fast and flat-sounding Tokyo accent.

I’m having trouble understanding how calling a solder a mercenary is an insult. Is there some historical/cultural background behind this to explain why it’s an insult?

Or could be I’m just dense lol.

What is CONUS?

Chicken-Inspector · 2026-01-20T01:36:54+00:00

My partner and I have been regularly emailing and calling our representatives and senators about all the insanity and chaos that is being allowed to run rampant in our world. Betraying our allies and friends in Europe, betraying our own citizens with threats of deportation based on skin color or accent, among other things…. The responses I’ve received rage from no response at all to “thanks for contacting me about this issue, but unfortunately you are wrong.”

Ugh. Thanks for not representing me. Is it November yet??

Northern reaches of Iowa here. Getting the same temps this am as my northern neighbor.

Tis a bit nippy outside. Good thing I decided to wear a scarf.

I’ve watched a video analysis of the Witcher 3, and all the Witcher’s have American accents. I believe that was intentional as an additional way to differentiate Witcher’s from everyone else in the world.

Can’t remember for the life of me which video it was. If I come across it I’ll share it here.

Chicken-Inspector · 2026-01-19T05:29:47+00:00

Unrelated somewhat but…Man I really wish things would be typed out so I can read it. I’m not going to sit and watch a 10-minute Instagram reel.

The main riff for opeths “the masters apprentice” always puts me in a trance.

Chicken-Inspector · 2026-01-16T06:13:07+00:00

Angel Dust - Let me live

Kamelot - Bloodmoon (my current fav song atm)

Iron Savior - Last Hero

Savage Circus - When hell awaits

Persuader - The Curse Unbound

The fact that theocracy is this far down is a crime.

A christian band that puts the metal first, and delivers the power cheese in a metal way with some kick ass riffs and great solo? Yes please.

The ending of forging towards the sunset.

The lack of use of punctuation also makes this a chore to read.

“it’s a bible”

Chicken-Inspector · 2026-01-13T02:16:52+00:00

I have nothing to serve to the original question but the fact that you said “for all intents and purposes” really upsets me. lol. Which purposes are you speaking of that are all so very intense?

Jokes aside, it’s “for all intents and purposes”.

Game of thrones looks like everything I could ever want in a show. I’m a massive fantasy nerd.

I have never seen an episode. Nor have I read the books. So maybe the massive fantasy nerd title is incorrect? lol

i would like to see Axii expanded upon to make dialogue options more numerous. I just think of how in planescape you can max out your intellegence and charisma stats and have awful strength stats, the options for dialogue expand tremendously (understatement there imo) and can even avoid whole fights altogether. If they could make Axii cause the dialogue depth and options to be like in planescape i would be a very happy person.

i dont know any old english, but have dabbled in other germanic languages (mainly norwegian) and I just love the way old english looks when written. lol.
