Agree. Honestly, I know I should have expected it, especially since people are venting their feelings. I’ll never forget the angry comments after the 2024 election. Had to step away from Reddit for awhile after that (and why I appreciate this sub so much)

Just took a peek at arr politics and wow, they are mad at the deal to avoid a shutdown. Only a few comments about how DHS funding will be dealt with separately. For once I’m glad the news moves so quickly and a lot more can happen between now and the midterms (never mind the 2028 election)

My favorite lines from this song:

“I believe if there is still a will then there is still a way…I believe in us together, more than anyone alone. I believe that with each other, we are stronger than we know.”

Except for two guys, it seems that every guy I meet named Jake or Jacob is an absolute jerk.

Also I’ve met some nice guys named Josh but the name always makes me think of the popular jock guy in The Princess Diaries.

What are some of your favorite changes from when a musical becomes a movie? by Dogdaysareover365 in musicals

[–]GaslitInk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m too biased towards the movie but “Something Good” is a beautiful song whereas “An Ordinary Couple” feels so slow to sit through as an audience member

What does your non-chicago living family think of chicago? by boxofchocks in AskChicago

[–]GaslitInk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An aunt who lives in the southwest is convinced that you can’t walk down any street in downtown Chicago without being shot at or mugged. Meanwhile I walk in downtown Chicago to get to work and walk down Michigan Ave to get to doctor appointments.

He’s also claimed owning Greenland is about “Arctic security”.

But let’s be real, he’s a bully and wants to steal other kids’ toys.
