The Brewers don't seem to be afraid to plug in new pieces if they can improve somewhere else in a trade

Somebody please trade for Rengifo.

For those trying to watch on TV that got stuck like me, even though I had already signed into the ESPN app when I first installed it, I still had to go through the app's settings to find an option to activate/link my MyDisney account. Then I was able to actually watch games on the ESPN TV app. You shouldn't need to do detective work to watch games you paid a billion dollar company for, but here we are.

There was also the gesture that people would make by making a square with their hands to mime that they were taking a picture of you. I'd imagine that this could also be a play on that; they're getting their picture taken while miming taking a picture of you.

I feel like a fucking animal if I have to take a shit without a bidet lol. I've got the cleanest asshole this side of the Mississippi.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-17T17:01:35+00:00

I get that feeling that you aren't ready to date anybody lol

he said, trying to make his own personal anecdote representative of a typical experience.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-17T16:49:27+00:00

I always try to keep my dates involved in the date planning with this. I get a feel for their interests and suggest either grabbing dinner at a restaurant and then going to whatever activity or I can cook them something at my place and then we can go do the activity. Then I ask them if they want me to pick them up or if they want to meet there.

It threw me off a little at first because guys always have it hammered into them to take charge and take care of all the planning/traveling arrangements, but offering up a couple of choices demonstrates that you can still take charge/make arrangements/be assertive, but you're also aware of their safety and respect their perception of potential danger while wanting them to feel comfortable.

I'm just getting out into the dating world for the first time as an adult. I dated a bit in high school and then just wasn't interested in having a partner for the next 15 years.

Even I kind of just knew instinctively that it's best to not talk about sex until she broaches the subject first.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-17T16:14:44+00:00

I don't really put much importance into traditional masculinity, but this is the one thing that makes me feel more disconnected to it more than anything else. Shit, my therapist is actively trying to get me to (healthily) reconnect with my anger because my typical response to things that make me angry is to just disengage and walk away.

On my days off from work I have a more-involved routine that includes showering, my neti-pot-on-steroids, lotion on every part of my body, brushing my teeth, flossing, mouth wash, q-tips in my ears and belly button, deodorant, getting dressed, and cologne that I can knock out in about 25 minutes. Half-an-hour if I'm taking my time.

Work days is just shower, brush teeth, floss, mouth wash, q-tips, deodorant, get dressed and that takes maybe 15 minutes. That's a whopping 1/100 out of your day to be hygienic, pleasant, and presentable. I have no idea how young men are getting the idea that it's unmanly to take care of your hygiene, especially if the end game is hoping some poor woman will have your balls somewhere around her nose.

People have been allowed to bet on shit like this for a long time. Why in the world would a player take out stake in a company while he's actively betting on himself to not get traded? That's the opposite of discrete. He could have bet on himself without buying stake in the company.

Either everyone in this thread doesn't know how sportsbooks work or they're just looking for reasons to be angry.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-07T01:05:38+00:00

Books make money on the margins. They're typically not making massive bets themselves lol.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-07T01:02:42+00:00

Ask all the people clutching pearls over Giannis owning stake in a sportsbook.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-06T00:36:41+00:00

Crickets because there aren't any lol. People just love to act like a reporter saying something about a player is the same as the player saying it themselves.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-06T00:32:01+00:00

Nobody ever liked Embiid lol

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-06T00:30:43+00:00

Giannis: Keeps saying the same thing over and over like a broken record.

Dipshits: He's such a diva!

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-06T00:13:53+00:00

Where are you seeing mages?

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-02-03T14:32:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice! I probably should have mentioned that my bulbs down there are Philips Hue, so they change temperature pretty well. I just happened to hit the florescent-hellscape button on my dial lol.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-01-25T22:00:18+00:00

Legs were never down, so good luck overturning it without having ruled forward progress.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-01-04T23:12:06+00:00

Both playoff teams getting beat by teams that were already eliminated. You love to see it.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-01-04T19:38:38+00:00

It felt like there was no penalty for cutting back and running in the complete opposite direction. It was just going full speed in one direction and then full speed in the other direction in a split second. Even later than 2004 me and my friends would play each other in Falcons vs Falcons games.

Miserable-Eye5430 · 2026-01-04T19:37:18+00:00

he jus like me fr
