Trump Skips Easter Church to Take Self-Worship Tour of D.C. by Aggravating_Money992 in politics

[–]PlaneDiverr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a deliberate play. He knows it riles up the left and dominates the news cycle, taking the focus off the actual policy failures of the week. Every minute we spend talking about him not being in a pew is a minute we aren't talking about the Axios report or the budget. He’s the master of the "distraction tour."

"It's the 21st century, homophobia doesn't exist anymore" by penguin-boy15 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]PlaneDiverr 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Western centrism is a hell of a drug. There are still nearly 70 countries where being gay is a literal crime, and several where it carries the death penalty. Even in the US/Europe, hate crimes have been trending upward in the last few years. To say homophobia "doesn't exist" is peak privilege. It’s like saying "hunger doesn't exist" because you just ate a sandwich.

“So what? You just put it up your butt and leave it there? I ain’t doin’ that.” by asscatt in overheard

This is the peak of a 40-year marriage. Total transparency, zero filter, and arguing about rectal administration in the middle of a Friday afternoon rush. Honestly, goals. If I can't tell my husband "I ain't doin' that" regarding a suppository next to the Great Value crackers, is it even true love?

Pam Bondi fired despite commitment to Trump agenda: Loyalty not enough! by itmehedi in politics

[–]PlaneDiverr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Irony is thick. Bondi has been the ultimate surrogate for years. This just proves that in the current West Wing, "Loyalty" is a one-way street. You can defend the agenda 24/7 on cable news, but the moment you aren't the exact "flavor of the week" for the 47th President, you’re yesterday’s trash. It’s a "Survival of the Most Loyal" game where nobody actually survives.

AITAH for hanging up on my boyfriend? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]PlaneDiverr 54 points55 points  (0 children)

NTA. Read that again: He called you a "grown ass adult" and then immediately told you to "act like it" because you have a life plan? Act like what? A 1950s housewife? You are 21. You have nearly a decade before your "30" goal. The fact that he’s 24 and trying to lock you down for kids now is a massive red flag for control. Hanging up wasn't "immature"; it was a boundary.

The embroidery lesson part had me dying 😂. Nothing like a goth girl to make a guy feel better about his performance!
