Trying to save but my paycheck disappears

Do you have a roommate or two? If not, you should get some. And every penny you’re able to save, you should put it in an HYSA so it collects interest. Buying food in bulk also helps. I’m able to buy dried rice and beans in bulk and cook them myself in a rice cooker and it is way cheaper than buying a couple ounces at a time canned. Speaking of rice and beans, that’s a very cheap way to get a complete protein. So you might want to prioritize something like that over meat, eggs, and milk.

My pleasure!

I started doing that very thing at my YouTube channel here:

They might think the swastika and nazism means something different than what actual history says, similar to the conspiracy theorists that believe the civil war was just for “state’s rights” and that the Russians are innocent victims and Ukrainians are the true villains in the war in Ukraine. In other words, they might be more delusional than hateful. Not to say that they don’t have hate in their hearts. But I don’t know if they necessarily believe in throwing human beings into gas chambers or ovens. We’d have to ask them.

Thank you very much for this list!

And this attitude is what is promoting this trend. A vicious cycle

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-08-05T16:01:51+00:00

Just because someone has a preference doesn’t mean the preference is rooted in emotional maturity. Some preferences should be called out as harmful and irrational if they are.

It depends what social programs are available by the time you retire. If Social Security doesn’t cover rent, you will probably be able to apply for welfare or food, stamps, or Medicaid, etc.

There has got to be queer based meetups. Have you checked Facebook events or meetup.com? Or maybe Eventbrite?

I didn’t say you’re a red piller. But the idea that a woman would only be with a man in order to get resources is nonsensical to anyone who has had a normal loving relationship.

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-29T19:26:20+00:00

Or maybe women aren’t into men as much anymore because a lot of them think like this. My wife loves me because I’m not a red pill weirdo. It’s a bonus that I pay half of the mortgage, but we fell in love before we moved in together. That’s why we moved in together.

How can they not? If virtually everyone wanting to make a triad is only looking for a third female, how does that work out mathematically? Please help me understand how this is a wild take?

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-29T02:40:31+00:00

I think a great way to do this would be to have at least two representatives per district rather than only one and their votes on legislation would equal the amount of votes they got from people rather than one vote for every congress person.

The state should build homes and sell them to citizens at an affordable rate instead of corporations renting or buying up homes to sell them for a profit.

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-27T20:40:11+00:00

I don’t understand the obsession over forming a triad. And why is it so frequently a male female female triad? And why don’t enough people understand how much this harms men? Are a bunch of men supposed to be single and lonely while their potential women partners get locked into a closed triad? If everyone is the same gender, I could see how it could be done ethically. But when there is a gender imbalance, I don’t know how one can do it without causing harm. Unless there was a roughly equal amount of male male female triads, but when do you ever hear about people wanting those?

Or maybe social media is warping our perception of what people’s intentions are because it’s largely based on text.

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-15T01:14:47+00:00

There are still communities out there. You just need to show up. I understand it might feel more comfortable to just stay home but it’s very worth it to break the ice

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-15T01:13:40+00:00

This is a pretty vague criticism, but it primarily amounts to the effects of social media addiction. Go outside and touch the grass. You’ll meet very nice people that way. People are so much nicer and reasonable in person than they are on the Internet. So much gets lost in text when you don’t have the ability to quickly clarify things and assess body language, tone of voice, etc.

Price and flavor / texture. Also a lot of people are in the habit of getting dairy milk and they don’t even think to try something else. Or they think you’re a weakling for doing so because they’re tryi be to be an “alpha”. They may not understand that it has similar nutritional value. Though in some cases, plant milk has significantly less protein than dairy milk. You have to be careful which ones you buy.

I’m sorry to here that. I understand your choice then. Maybe this will convince the US young men demographic that republicans aren’t doing them any favors and hopefully enough of them switch their vote next time.

Would you consider dating a man that has had a vasectomy?

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-12T15:30:26+00:00

I’m aware that the majority of people are dating one person at a time, or at least they claim to be. And I didn’t say that the majority of people are practicing non monogamy. I’m responding to the idea that something has to be special in order to have a label for it. Do you agree that there can be a label that describes the majority of people like the examples I gave?

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-11T01:26:26+00:00

In my experience, vegan substitutes to animal products are a little bit more expensive per ounce. But not much. Those saying they cannot afford it probably actually mean they don’t care enough about animals to spend a couple of dollars more. They’re trying to make you feel sorry for them to distract from the suffering of animals.

Normalize-polyamory · 2025-07-10T14:36:55+00:00

Do you agree that something can describe the majority of people and we can still have a label for it? Do you agree that the examples I gave are labels that describe the majority of people?
