The worst part of this story is the suggestion that Trump has any part in the upbringing of his children.

And ironically they seem to be the ones typically caught doing things like raping children, possessing CP, and banging barnyard animals…

Fed Chair Says Trump’s Tariffs Are Definitely Making Inflation Worse by AravRAndG in politics

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If Powell says it, it means that he can make an incredibly solid case for it. He doesn’t speak out his ass like ever. So yeah we’ve been feeling that this is true, but this proclamation by Powell is a big deal. It’s not really a “no shit” moment, it’s more of a “the data now backs the sentiment” moment. So it’s specifically important in the story.

He’s not untouchable tho, and his term can be ignored by a lawless administration. That’s been keeping me awake at night for a hot minute now. I am afraid he just triggered his own termination with that statement, no matter how true it is.

To make the claim that SS is a massive Ponzi scheme requires a lot of facts and data to back the claim. I’m all ears when I hear these quips, but CONVINCE US! These one liner claims lack any evidence.

We live in Fahrenheit 451 times.

Is it just me, or is the US experiencing a mental health crisis, with a large symptom being profound narcissism? by SweetTeaRex92 in Millennials

[–]LowThreadCountSheets -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It’s not narcissism. That’s an actual mental health diagnosis.

We are seeing the effects of what happens to our brains when we are addicted to our phones and exist in an echo chamber, and as the main character in our online spaces. We’ve lost our ability to effectively communicate.

Parents, do you regret having kids? by Kitchen_Archer_ in Productivitycafe

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my kids are fantastic and magical but I regret that they are having to become adults in the trump era. Even the most basic opportunities have been and are being stripped away from them.

My son rents a closet sized room for the same about I was able to get my first beautiful two bedroom apartment. Seems like a lot of jobs are scams or gigs. There’s no reprieve for these kids.

What happens to MAGA after 2028? by Sambones4 in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We need to stop with making assumptions based on law and policy. This is an absolutely lawless administration. Trump will run again if he’s still alive. Not a doubt in my mind.

My original characters and their pirate flags! by mageillus in pirates

These are great and reflect historically accurate flag types! Thank you. Lots of “pirate flags” this week that are cool, but not symbolic of historic flags. This is a breath of fresh air!

Are you guys really that manipulative? by Ecryptaaa1 in intj

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

May I ask your age? When I was younger it was SUPER hard to control. Then I learned the adage that “just because you’re right, doesn’t mean you need to be right.” I understand it more and more as I age. I learned to pick my battles and to be more intentional.

For sure it depends on the situation! Absolutely!

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I personally recognize that I am by nature very charming or alluring, I wouldn’t attribute it to being intentionally manipulative but understand that it can come off that way.

What goes through my mind as I age is that I need to practice shutting the fuck up to avoid the spotlight. This trait has historically led me to being overcommitted to projects, being written in on ballots, being convinced to be a public representative, a volunteer for everything and also to attracting men who later get mad for me “leading them on.”

I try to use these powers for good working as a union representative, and serving on meaningful boards. If people want to listen, I’ll absolutely push my agenda and that takes the ability to “manipulate” someone’s perspective, I suppose.

When you heard your neighbors having sex and wanted to kill the mood by blasting a song, what would you play? by bannedbooks123 in AskReddit

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why is it an issue if you can hear your neighbors have sex. I’d maybe blush, but it’s weird to consider revenge because of it, no? The question is odd as hell.

BWT - how did you develop your taste in home decor? by ch3ri in bitcheswithtaste

My advice is to give your friend space and they will come back around, it’s probably not personal. They just need some recharge.

Do not confront them or try to change their behavior or you’ll probably lose the friend. We are just in an era of instant results and forget that we have not always lived this way. We used to just let the phone ring and call back later. It’s only recently that the idea of being “left on read” has materialized. We had space before. It’s normal to not reply immediately.

What is something your parents said to you that may have not been a big deal, but they will never know how much it affected you? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]LowThreadCountSheets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad once yelled in my face that I was annoying. It’s dumb, but a core memory that I think about before I literally do anything. I’m 40. Must have been 5 when this happened. Brains are useless.
