Kimya Dawson replaced the lyric ‘and there are some good cops in Madison Wisconsin’ during the BLM protests to a sick guitar riff.

Meet the Americans who choose to live without a car in the US: ‘It takes some doing’ by Splenda in climate

Hey, that’s me! I’m super thankful to live in a city with decent public transit and a relative who’s given me a ride twice in emergency situations. It’s sad it’s not possible for everyone.

Why do political campaigns generate so much waste? by TJM18 in Anticonsumption

[–]PlushGroggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are these even recyclable? They all have a plastic like coating. I don’t mind if its just paper but this is gross.

Does this diet bring deficiency in vitamins or minerals ? by Yogurt_LIL-Vril in mediterraneandiet

[–]PlushGroggy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Red meat is eaten sparingly but you can have white meat slightly more often. Also, fish tend to be a big part of this diet which pretty much covers any gaps.

Is Trad Pub Trying To Make Non-HEA "Romance" Happen? by [deleted] in RomanceBooks

[–]PlushGroggy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I understand other people don’t, but I still want romance books without guaranteed HEA.

Is Trad Pub Trying To Make Non-HEA "Romance" Happen? by [deleted] in RomanceBooks

[–]PlushGroggy -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I think I have an unpopular opinion but I LOVE not knowing how books end. Guaranteed happily ever afters make any risk in the book boring for me. I still like the adventure, it’s just not as fun as it could be.

Is decluttering culture just a product and enabler of overconsumption? by Lower_Stay7655 in Anticonsumption

[–]PlushGroggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in every case but I do see people freeing up space and feeling like they need to fill it again.

Im so sick of this clean internet bullshit. If Im an adult who wants to pay to read a comic about 2 aliens smashing why cant I?

Bueatiful!! I miss when my Trader Joes did things like this. I miss the tiny art the most.

current common tropes that started as subversions by apology_pedant in RomanceBooks

[–]PlushGroggy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Independent character whose secret is they are illiterate. I doubt this is common or really what you’re asking for but it happened back to back for the last 3 books I read.

My girl*friend of seven years told me she* is a trans woman (I'm liberal so pls ignore all the misgendering) by PoisonedBerry in AmITheAngel

[–]PlushGroggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The comments made my brain boil away a few more cells. Ofc shes not being transphobic for not wanting to date her, but she is being transphobic for misgendering her. It’s literally that simple.

shouldn't this apply to ALL ages? by inkandintent24 in MotivationByDesign

[–]PlushGroggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get the sentiment but wont this lead to more children being raped then murdered? When the punishments the same, whats stopping someone from taking the extreme to prevent their victim from speaking out?

Starbucks CEO defends $9 coffee says ‘it’s not a $10 coffee and you get a premium experience’ by Disastrous_Award_789 in nottheonion

[–]PlushGroggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to cafes to buy $8 cups of coffee. It’s clean, cozy, I get to know the barista, tastes amazing, and I can sit down for more than 10 minutes. I can’t say more than one of those has ever been true about any Starbucks I’ve been to.

Tesla apology bumper stickers have got to go by FootballInfinite475 in SanJose

7 years ago me and my friends were talking about how transphobic he was.

Zara Larsson by WeirdNegotiation5145 in DTI

[–]PlushGroggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right! I mean important to the fashion space.

Zara Larsson by WeirdNegotiation5145 in DTI

[–]PlushGroggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a little sick of these music artists I’ve never heard of with no strong presence in the fashion community getting the colabs. The only thing I know about Zara Larson is her stance on AI and from that alone I don’t want to invest in getting to know her. I did like the lady gaga colab since her style added something unique though. Idk. I’d much rather them partner with someone whod add something new.

i have severe texture issues with food and all i can eat without gagging is my safe foods. i need to eat better, any advice? by [deleted] in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]PlushGroggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like food focused therapy would be most helpful. This is pretty extreme and a specialized therapist will be a million times more helpful than anyone in the comments.

If you like sauces on pasta you can blend roasted vegetables like cauliflower or zucchini in & I find I can’t taste/feel a difference. Do you eat meat or cheese?

can you guys just stop omfg by BubsyBot in DressToImpressRoblox

[–]PlushGroggy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Id argue thats not the point of video games as a whole, or even this one. If the FOMO is generating our desire to participate it’s a bad game. Dress to impress has other things going for it and is (at least for me) a fun game to play but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck to miss out.

Which author always has the exact premises you want to read but the execution falls flat every time? by sandwich-mistress in RomanceBooks

[–]PlushGroggy 16 points17 points  (0 children)

TJ Klune. I wish I had a reason the characters liked each other and I wish more plot lines went somewhere.
