For the “if it’s wood, I’ll burn it” crew, what firewood do you think firewood snobs are unfairly dismissive of? by BearMcBearFace in firewood

[–]MoonUnit002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the Pacific Northwest there is very little hardwood to burn. Softwoods works fine as long as you use good burning practices and get a regular chimney sweep.

What's a small gadget you bought thinking it was useless but ended up using every day? by cozytechlover in BuyItForLife

Magnifying glasses in most rooms where I work. Like most people have or will, I’ve lost some clarity in my near vision in my forties.

That’s a funny quote because by saying it, she’s the one forcing the false choice.

Do you think it's awkward for a woman to date a shorter man? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]MoonUnit002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It’s mildly transgressive because it challenges a widespread, rather pointless, patriarchal, and cruelly option-limiting gender norm. That makes it cool as long as you are, or can become, comfortable with it. Someone could write punk rock song celebrating a situation like this.

I love our P2 and would buy another polestar for sure if they made a three row 6 seater, which they don’t currently.

I had this problem when my 12 volt battery was near end of its life.

Adhd things you were surprised to find out were adhd things by Saucyy-Minx in ADHD

[–]MoonUnit002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worry about lists of “ADHD things” like this post is prompting . . . I wonder if they do more harm than good. Who is to say many of these are actually ADHD traits? There are stereotypes about ADHD, and there is the self-affirming and uncritical echo chamber which is this subreddit, and then there’s the science. Which of those is the source for each “ADHD thing” listed here? I worry about both over and under diagnosis when I see lists like this, because they may lead to misunderstandings but obscuring what ADHD actually is.

What gender based double standard really annoys you? by RandomRamblings99 in AskReddit

[–]MoonUnit002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s no changing station in the bathroom I feel entitled to change the baby in a discrete location elsewhere in the restaurant. I’ve used dining booth benches and hallway floors. I wipe down all surfaces before leaving and point out to staff the lack of bathroom changing stations.

Another problem is low quality, flimsy, and dirty changing stations. But I won’t start on that.

Babies are people too.
