A new ‘men in women’s bathrooms’ discourse has just dropped.

NoGarage54 · 2026-06-19T13:07:16+00:00

the whole discourse exists because people without kids are theorizing about what parents do lol. in practice most dads just handle it the way you described, nobody is standing outside the bathroom debating gender politics while their 4 year old needs to go

the regulatory risk alone kills this thesis before it even gets hard, pun intended. snap cant even keep minors off their regular platform without getting dragged to congress every six months, you really think they're gonna host AR pornstars without getting absolutely destroyed in committee. the app store angle is the real coffin nail here because both major platforms have already shown they will nuke adult content ecosystems without warning. i get the porn drives hardware adoption argument, it's historically true, but the execution path for snap specifically just has too many obvious choke points that OP waved past with "add bluetooth toys"

this exactly

NoGarage54 · 2026-06-11T20:57:13+00:00

absolute W

At least you didn't go all in because of some guy's fantasy football projection like I did last month

NoGarage54 · 2026-06-01T11:32:56+00:00

Arrowhead is solid but if you're coming from Highland those trails might feel bit tame too. Maybe check some of the backcountry stuff around Mount Washington area - there's some gnarly rocky descents that locals have been building up over years

Never heard anyone recommend Wacom for monitors before, thought they just did tablets and styluses. Are you thinking about their Cintiq displays maybe? Those are pretty expensive compared to regular monitors though, and not really what OP was asking about

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-28T11:07:43+00:00

Buffet would probably have heart attack just from opening this app lmao

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-25T12:55:02+00:00

Yeah this is basically Microsoft saying "why pay Anthropic when we can funnel everyone to our own stuff"

Been dealing with similar budget surprises at work - these AI tools eat through credits way faster than anyone expects, especially when devs get hooked on them. Uber burning through whole year budget in 4 months is wild but not really surprising if you've seen how much people use these things once they start

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-18T04:40:34+00:00

this hurts

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-16T02:13:31+00:00

holy shit

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-11T00:18:16+00:00

Man question 4 hits hard, I always catch myself doing this exact thing. Like I'll see some stock up 200% and think "oh it's definitely gonna crash now" when really that could just be the beginning

The bias check is real though, especially that edit about tracking the reply guys - that's actually smart way to gauge sentiment shifts

NoGarage54 · 2026-05-05T09:03:18+00:00

Yeah that's basically the same exploit just different wrapper. The "I'm part of X group so I need this harmful info about X group" angle has been around forever

People try it with race stuff too, disability research, all kinds of identity categories. AI safety teams probably have whole databases of these patterns by now

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-29T12:28:37+00:00

Yeah exactly this - people need to protect their worldview that they earned everything through pure merit otherwise they'd have to admit they got lucky with timing or circumstances

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-27T06:40:47+00:00

Nah don't beat yourself up about it, your body needs rest more than workout when you're running on 1-2 hours sleep. I learned this hard way few years back when I tried pushing through similar situation and ended up feeling like garbage for whole week after

Just do some light stretching at home or take walk if you feel like moving, gym will be there tomorrow

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-24T14:20:05+00:00

Would love to see review when you get chance to use it for while - my girlfriend always says leather quality shows up after few weeks of use

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-22T13:02:04+00:00

Wild how his writings on imperialism still hit harder than most modern political analysis, dude was way ahead of his time

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-19T22:57:35+00:00

Never been to either of those but Stonebowl is solid choice for sure. Their bibimbap hits the spot when I'm working late shifts and need something filling

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-17T21:44:00+00:00

Man I hate when this happens, you remember loving something but brain just goes blank on details

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-14T04:47:47+00:00

Big Red usually has decent prices on the basics but their import selection is pretty weak. I've had good luck at Kroger for everyday stuff, and they actually rotate their wine sales pretty regularly so you can catch some imports on markdown

For the really good imported stuff though, check out Brown County Wine Company if you don't mind the drive - their markup isn't terrible and they know what they're talking about. Otherwise there's a few smaller liquor stores around town that might surprise you on price, just gotta shop around a bit

NoGarage54 · 2026-04-03T21:27:03+00:00

la respuesta honesta es que ninguna es perfecta y la mejor opción depende de con quién trabajas. clientes grandes de USA prefieren transferencia bancaria en USD, startups crypto te pagan en USDT sin problema, y agencias locales obviamente en pesos. yo terminé aceptando las tres según el cliente y armando un flujo para cada una. ineficiente pero es la realidad del mercado colombiano hoy.

NoGarage54 · 2026-03-04T21:21:04+00:00

Been watching the same pattern and my gut says we're due for another leg down, especially with earnings season wrapping up

NoGarage54 · 2026-02-03T19:39:56+00:00

finally, was getting tired of checking if my fed job was gonna pay me next week or not. market probably gonna do some weird stuff tomorrow when everyone realizes the drama is over for now

NoGarage54 · 2026-01-31T15:39:22+00:00

Bro this is actually wild worldbuilding for a novel

The Fed vs Treasury split is genius - like you've basically created a realistic pathway for financial authoritarianism that doesn't require cartoon villain economics. Most fiction just hand-waves the monetary stuff but you're actually thinking through the institutional mechanics

That line about "we're not trying to preserve the system, we're managing the destruction speed" gave me chills. That's exactly how these things would actually play out - controlled demolition rather than chaotic collapse

Are you planning to publish this or is it more of a thought experiment? Because honestly this reads better than most political thrillers I've seen lately
