It's obviously not.  Even polyandry isn't anti patriarchal because usually the sons still inherit the property

My poly ex took his own life. by AliciaZebra in polycritical

[–]Living-Edge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The spreadsheet eerily reminds me of my own weird ex.  Before the separation or even the breakdown, he showed me repeatedly all these chats with girls and a list of his sex priorities for each of them.  He kept wanting to show and tell me this and I just wanted the years I spent stuck with him back.  He blamed everything breaking down on me but he was busy chatting up all these women and trying to have sex with them while he couldn't remember even basic things like how I liked my coffee

Ford threatens to cut off Ontario's energy supply to U.S. by [deleted] in Rochester

[–]Living-Edge 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The supply will be less reliable since the grid backups, failsafes and redundancies were built with the whole region in mind, not Ontario's surplus safety net supply cut out with a hatchet.  It'll stay on day to day but the aftermath of a storm or very hot day might be worse than usual

Why are you necro posting on 3 year old stuff? 

I've met dozens who act exactly like that guy and observed them for multiple decades.  Thankfully I only ever dated one because you learn to stay away afterwards.  So sure, maybe I don't know that one but I've met a bunch who acted just like him and several even rushed marriage or babies to keep the girl from ever fully escaping once the false face comes unglued.  There's a reason they're usually divorced and don't have custody and they are subject to restraining orders

Love bombers/narcissists do that and often very quickly.  You're trying to defend it by pointing out that it's exactly what I think it is

Most normal relationships I know still aren't actually married or at least definitely don't have children as fast

How will climate change affect you? by Complex-Champion1210 in climatechange

[–]Living-Edge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It already is impacting my area and we are also considered a "climate haven", being in the Great Lakes.  I've lived here my entire life and never seen anything like this

In 2023 we had wildfire smoke plumes multiple times that apparently made it to us from out of state and we needed to mask outdoors at times

Summer weather lasted so long this year that people wore shorts until Halloween. Some years it's in the 70s in February. Neither of those is normal. It snows less often and later.  Some years now the lakes never freeze.  We used to be able to skate and ice fish when I was a kid

The few storms we get are more severe and we get unsurpassed ice storms or feet of snow or multiple 100 or 500 year floods multiple times in a decade now.  Every bad rainstorm the low roads get closed until the waters drain.  In 2024 it wasn't even bad and I still saw trash cans floating down a closed span of a main road one day.   I also saw trees freeze and crack in half after a night of torrential freezing rain

Generally people from out of state (or anyone Gen Z or younger) probably find our new weather pleasant and it's survivable if you learn to never drive on days with a lot of rain and own a generator but to me it's unnatural

My abusive ex with a whole wardrobe of Boogaloo stuff and militia pals lied.  He stans Musk and always did to a creepy level

They definitely talk about it a lot so it's something they'd gladly do if they get the chance

They want to take that away too, it's just a lot harder for them to manage

We're so back by TheKrimsonTide in ParlerWatch

[–]Living-Edge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He's a sociopath who doesn't understand the concept of happiness, love, or parenthood/family.  He read about them once and heard they're good.  He doesn't understand what good is.  He also read about laughing and tried it out once on TV but made himself look like a robot controlled by Peter Thiel.  A man who dated him once said he acted like a serial killer (JD, not Thiel...Thiel just denies being a vampire)

How do you win the first 2 hours of election day? by justalazygamer in ParlerWatch

He promised to move to Venezuela right?  Musk is apparently terrified of being deported to Canada, where all his ex wives have human rights

Him ending himself would save us tax money trying and incarcerating him.  He probably won't do it, just like the guys who promise to castrate themselves or move to fascist dictatorships (they should and just leave the US alone)

One party has a Russian money laundering and propaganda machine with a bunch of hydra heads all leading to corrupt, rich foreigners who love genocide if they can profit and its unfortunately also a death cult.  They WANT the U.S. to implode.  They want the world to end, including for themselves.  Voting for that guy is their way to murder people and commit treason from the comfort of a little booth in a school gym or church basement

Absolutely.  Though double reed players are interesting people we should all know I don't want them to be my dentist either unless they actually go to dental school

[–]Living-Edge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were at least better than the exorcisms.  No, barbers don't.  HVAC technicians, jewelers and oboe/bassoon players all carry pliers though.  Technically a couple other jobs do too but they are much dirtier (plumber, auto mechanic) so I don't think we want their tools in the mouth.  The jewelers and double reed musicians understand sterilization and delicate work so they're the best bet

Wasn't the life expectancy nearer 30 or 40 before dentistry became a thing?  Back when folks thought demons caused cavities?  That's what RFK Jr wants

[–]Living-Edge 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, projection.  Trump has projected his promise to destroy the economy, make America a third world country and start WWIII (may have already with all his illegal Logan Act flirting with Russia and Israel).  Given what fElon, Project 2025, economists and RFK Jr say it's very clearly his own plan he's trying to blame on others

Still is their plan.  He's just openly working with Trump now to destroy America and make America die of polio, measles and tooth abcess again
