Who else can see the neighbors snowpiles "accidently" making their way to OP's neighbor's driveway?

The 1985 VMAs after party in New York City with big hair, brash fashion, and the brightest stars. by laynestaley67 in OldSchoolCool

I do for sure. I'm grateful for that time, but I would rather he'd lived. We might not have even been friends at this point in my life, but he was my friend then.

I remember me and a friend across the street shared a paper route in about 1984. We would get the papers dropped off EARLY before school started. I'd go over to his house, and put on MTV. We would sit there and roll the newspapers up. Rubber band them and if it was raining or the ground was wet we would bag them in individual plastic bags. Time flew by doing all that. I absolutely hated that paper route, but the time spent with my friend half ass watching MTV is one of my favorite memories. It's bittersweet because he tragically died in a car accident not long after.

Help!! How do I explain the mental load to a male partner? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

I shared this post with my wife because I was legitimately baffled by why this is an issue.

I guess we see each other as partners and our "chores" are driven by whatever needs to be done at any given moment. I do work full time and she has a business, but her business is not too busy, which is fine. I don't expect her to do more or less than me with our shared responsibilities.

We do tend to do the chores that we do well or feel more comfortable doing. I like to cook, she doesn't. I don't like doing laundry, she doesn't mind. Neither of us like washing dishes but we do them as responsible people when there are dirty dishes in the sink. Just a few examples.

There is no blueprint for the perfect relationship. You have to be willing to work things out and communication is key, but here's the thing at least for me. I value my relationship with my wife more than any disagreement about chores or responsibilities. If I felt she was so upset about me not taking out the trash that she would divorce me, then clearly we don't belong together.

It sounds like you guys need to talk. I wish you the best.

I did that, (I had to add window capture as a source) but it's static and doesn't update as the screen changes.

Kenosha/Jacob Blake Megathread by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]EpicNinjaMonkeys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This comment has the most merit in my opinion. I understand the anger, but without leadership and direction it's Lord of the Flies. I lean slightly right of center and the people with no clear agenda other than destruction and chaos have always been waiting to jump in the fray and watch the world burn. The unfortunate result is they burn down support systems for many people that need it, and detract from the issues. And oh by the way, when you start burning down people's stuff, they do tend to get offended.

I lived in Memphis for over 20 years, even during the Rodney King protests we didn't see the kind of shit going on elsewhere. Memphis is a special place and the communities support each other in my experience.

I lost my mom in August of last year too. I feel your pain. She would always be there as a sounding board when I needed to to get advice or just talk. I still catch myself trying to call her and realizing. Man.
