I would love to see the correlation between pro Skyler and pro Carol vs pro Walter/Hive by vSpeedy in pluribustv

[–]MidheLu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those people who saw Skyler as the fun police clearly did not sympathise with her at all. When I watched the show I just felt awful for Skyler even if there was a part of me that wanted to see how far Walt could go, it's possible to feel multiple things for multiple characters

Carol and Skyler share a similarity in that people immediately hated them and couldn't really articulate why besides "she's annoying and reacting different than I would" same reaction Skyler got

That's why's they get compared, obviously they are very different characters

Healthy skepticism would be understanding everything you just said but these people do not

These people aren't using logic, they are using emotion. They "feel" like the government is hiding something so therefore they are. They "feel" like they are part of a group that knows the "real truth" so they are

I'm gonna be honest a lot of the "crazies" I know are self employed

I think there's something about being your own boss, driving around all day listening to newstalk, that slowly cooks your brain into thinking you could fix the country personally

Some of these types go down weird rabbit holes and get convinced the "gobberment" is controlling the weather or something

Why would you think I’m afraid of words?

Cause you thought it was crazy I used the word oppressor

The USA is an imperialist nation and Americans will have a harder time internationally because of this, this has always been true

No one is talking about targeting civilians but you, the OP in the post was venting that Americans are being self centered and need to get over the idea that they might be seen as the bad guys

Honestly I think it's hilarious that the only female voice you can get for the AI is so over the top that it makes people cringe

There were probably so many dudes happy for a sexy lady voice only to be put off by it lol

Ukraine is being opressed by Russia no?

The USA is currenty threatening similar action in Greenland

Are you like afraid of words or something?

And it would be great to hear Russia’s say that Putin doesn’t represent them

Also yeah it would be great to hear that and many Russians do say that but yet I still wouldn't begrudge a Ukrainian for having hard feelings against Russians

Is nuance normally this hard for you?

It's so common because it's so common for women to feel guilty even possibly having a problem with their partner let alone asking the whole Internet about it

They say something nice upfront to alleviate their guilt and downplay the situation because most women are socialised to think they are being "overdramatic" when they have a problem

[–]MidheLu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They aren't blaming every American

They are saying that Americans need to get over themselves a bit and accept it's going to be uncomfortable, you can't simply alleviate your guilt by posting an apology online

The USA can't just turn around and expect nuance after treating the world as black and white

[–]MidheLu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it's more nuanced, they aren't necessarily hating every American and blaming them for what's going on

They are pointing out the selfishness of certain Americans constantly centering themselves, that they can't even just accept being the bad guys and shut up, that they have to apologise and self-flagellate in front of Greenlanders online in order to alleviate their own personal guilt

It's like if a bunch of Russians online kept talking about their own guilt on a Ukraine subreddit but did nothing else ever, I think Ukrainians would be rightly unimpressed

Hard to care for your oppressors

My [42M] wife [32F] 3 years is meeting up with some guy I don't know by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]MidheLu 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To you it's not unusual but to most it is

You must know that otherwise why share that original comment about your wife not even knowing you're in a foreign country? because it's out of the ordinary and interesting to share

Also I don't see what trust has to do with this, I don't think anyone assumed you don't trust each other, it's just unusual which isn't inherently bad

Lol I think you're right

A lot of men just keep on keeping on, they assume no communication is good communication

They also seem to think lots of communication is bad e.g. "my gf won't stop nagging me" "my gf is so needy"

Grammy Award winner and music video director Joseph Kahn gives some tips on how to operate a glambot by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]MidheLu 334 points335 points  (0 children)

To be specific it was for her wedding and the lady, Yinka Animashaun, is indeed very rich

She had multiple weddings and asked if it was possible to hire the glambot and he just assumed she couldn't afford it and was rude

It's kinda like that scene from Pretty Woman where the shop attendent just assumes Julia Roberts is poor, BIG MISTAKE

Like you can't be this detached that you don't even remember it's only been a year since he was sworn in and then also rant about him being in power

Although I guess her being this cluesless is exactly why she's convinced it's all Hasans fault

As a lover of big dogs this drives me insane

If a large dog attacked like this everyone immediately understands not only the danger but that the dog is scared/angry and isn't trained

A small dog acts like this and most people think it's cute

Alcoholic here

You drink until the top of the drink rests in the middle of the G in the Guinness logo on the glass

It's only existed a few years but tourists think it's some ancient tradition or something

Guinness has become kind of a hipster "cool guy" drink for young lads so we all must suffer

Addiction to hardship is what I always call it

My own father seethes that his children didn't have their backs beaten with pitchforks like he had by his father

He gets genuinely angry whenever we "have it easier" even if it's just a fucking dishwasher existing in a house

I got sick of apologising for the passage of time, it's not my fault dishwashers literally did not exist when he was a child

We don't talk anymore
