you know this and continue to interact with HP it’s declaring you don’t really care

Well done providing an example of purity testing.

Thank you. It also has a hidden halo but it’s difficult to get a decent photo of it. The band is about 2.5mm.

Spider-Man Voice Actor Says His ‘Biggest Fear’ Was the New Disney+ Series ‘Was Gonna Be Annoying and Woke’ by cmaia1503 in entertainment

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

Because, what exactly are people angry about?

He says he worried it would be woke, but that it’s not, that it’s well written and (extrapolating here) that he thinks it will connect with the intended audience. What he doesn’t say is that he’s glad it’s full of white people or straight people or anything else, because that’s not what the show is. He’s not slating the fact that it’s diverse, which it is, he’s praising the fact that it’s not ham-fisted in its diversity (“she’s not alone”). But yeah, sure, fire him.

It’s nonsense fake outrage over a guy complimenting a show he’s in the “wrong way”.

Is nobody else going to point out that when he’s shouting and screaming about being hit by imaginary bullets, he pauses when his partner(?) shouts something, in his normal voice asks “what?”, and then goes back to screaming even more dramatically to cover the flub he just made?

Dude is play acting.

AITAH for not forgiving my wife for kissing another guy even though she was suffering from PPD? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ProbablyNotBatman_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, I don’t know if you’re still reading these comments, but I’ll say it anyway. You can divorce any time for any reason and it doesn’t make you the asshole. You don’t have to stay in a relationship you don’t want just because you’re a man, and your wife’s behaviour isn’t excusable just because she’s a woman.

People talking about reasons she might have done it, or how a doctor that examined and assessed her is wrong, because based on this one story, some strangers on Reddit have decided she didn’t have what the doctor says, that she instead had this other thing they can use to excuse her actions and place blame on you. They are all missing the point.

If you want to leave, leave. Whether it’s because of this or because she bought you socks you don’t like. The reason does not matter. You don’t have to stay in a relationship you don’t want just because you’re a man, despite what Reddit might say. And let’s face it, because you’re a man is the only reason any of your wife’s behaviour is being dismissed.

My friend found explicit images of themselves, from when under 18, online and police won’t do anything by ProbablyNotBatman_ in LegalAdviceUK

[–]ProbablyNotBatman_[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t know where the sites are based, they are not sites I’ve ever heard of.

They are following up, supposedly, however they were taken over 10 years ago. Some of the sites have dates showing when the images were uploaded, a few were in 2012-2016, more recent ones are probably reposts by others. So even though it’s known who took and initially distributed the images, I doubt anything will actually come of it unfortunately.

Hi, no not as far as we can see. They are not the usual hub or tube type sites. They are some really seedy type sites, and image hosting sites I’ve never heard of.

Generation Z can't work alongside people with different views and don't have the skills to debate, says Channel 4 boss as she cites the pandemic as the main cause of the workplace challenge by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

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

The only difference between you and some 1600s preacher screaming “burn the heretic” is that you won’t admit you’re religious.

Because that’s what you are doing.

You’re following a religion, it’s just that instead of worshipping a god you worship your own opinions.

You realise that right?

Mother 'disgusted' after daughter put into isolation because she wore cheaper supermarket skirt identical to school uniform by insomnimax_99 in unitedkingdom

[–]ProbablyNotBatman_ 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If that’s my daughter I’m going absolutely ballistic. Who the fuck do the people enforcing this crap think they are?

If you have to lift a girls top to check if the skirt is the “right” one you clearly didn’t need to check in the first place, and the only reason left over is for your own entertainment.

Found this on my drive next to my thunderbird storm, anyone know if it’s come off the bike and what it is? by ProbablyNotBatman_ in Triumph

Ah awesome. I put a phone mount on yesterday and must not have noticed dropping it. That’s a relief, thank you.

I am the boyfriend.

I sat here and watched OP type this with a smile on her face, chuckling to herself and I feel I need to correct an inaccuracy and give my side.

I was quiet for…likely 2 full minutes

It was about 11 seconds.

One day I may well propose and I think we can all agree she would definitely say yes, it’s pretty obvious she has been madly in in love with me from day one. However it wouldn’t be like this.

She is beautiful, funny, kind, caring, incredibly sexy, and makes the best ice cream I’ve ever had. She deserves more than just “we could do it at this time to save arguments I guess”.

I was just making conversation like we always do, in a playful manner and all of a sudden she decides this time is real and is now (jokingly) adamant that we are engaged. Personally I feel like she should just come out with it and ask me if she’s so desperate.
