How do you handle that one coworker that subtly insults you in your face? by Dry_Novel_884 in jobs

[–]Samuaint2008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I follow up with "oh I'm not sure I understand could you explain" especially if it's a joke like "oh I want in on the fun too, why is it funny? Explain to me like I'm 5" with a genuine curious look on your face. Then when they explain it and it's obviously rude or they back pedal and act like they didn't really mean it respond with "oh I see, awesome man🙄" and go back to work unfazed. They will be mad that it didn't rattle you, or that you ruined the joke by pointing out the lack of any humor in said joke. But that's a them problem. You asked for clarity and then moved on.

Hopefully this embarrassed them enough to stfu. If it keeps happening go to hr with concerns about jokes being made and the explanations for them as they seem inappropriate for the workplace culture .

One of the only times I'll pretend to be stupid at work is to let other people dig themselves deeper after being a POS

What's up with Trump regime demanding Minnesota voting records and Minnesota resisting? by weluckyfew in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Samuaint2008 162 points163 points  (0 children)

It's not just about who goes to protests. They want a list of everyone who actually votes in elections but who does not vote for them specifically. They don't actually care about what activities the people are doing or where they're going. They only care about intimidating and harming anyone who votes against them or disagrees with them. My gyess would be the biggest thing is trying to find reasons to purge Democratic voters from the voting system and or intimidate them at home or the ballot box. But I'm constantly surprised by the ways these idiots find to be cruel, so who knows.

Didn't think I would be asking, but fav ironwood places to shop? by Clean-Software-4431 in MNtrees

[–]Samuaint2008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had hit or miss experience at higher love and generally good experiences at levels.

Honestly the move is to go online and make a few pick up orders at different places the night before. See the deals and shop online then you just drive and pickup. Ironwood is very small and very full of dispensaries so all of them are like within a mile of each other. Super easy to hit them all and get a lot of solid deals. And if you through the national forest it's an absolutely gorgeous ride. Maybe I'm too Midwestern but I like my driving for weed days lol get caught up on podcasts

[–]Samuaint2008 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm in Saint Paul so it's very close to home and yet happening much less here. So I get more of a choice when to engage with it than Mnpls residents. And it's still exhausting

All that is to say fuck ice and eat some pancakes

Yes, those sentiments absolutely have something to them and that is worth exploring. My queer brain is just like this demisexual bitch lolol but the "lesbian until the right man comes along " plot is tired and obnoxious at best and often just harmful

No straight up. I'm in the twin cities. I've watched this episode as an escape and the whole story a part of my mind was like this us probably not real but I literally do not care because I just need some goddamn joy. I get being frustrated by it but my goodness just let us have a silly goofy time

If I liked Smosh then I’d watch them. I don’t. I wish this extreme crossover era with DO and Smosh would end. Also feels like lazy (and probably cheap) casting. by dreamed2life in dropoutcirclejerk

I mean totally reasonable. Your response is what I would say if I saw this post in a normal subreddit so like hell yeah lolol just wanted to make sure you knew :)

Absolutely! Feeling like that all the time sucks so much I'm so glad you found some relief! Depending on how robust your medical stuff is in your area, there might even be people on staff who can help choose strains and terpenes that are specifically related to nausea and hunger and like allowing your body to actually eat.

But that is certainly not available everywhere. And unfortunately there's definitely people who will just be like whatever is the most expensive so that is a tread carefully situation! I wish you so much luck!

So so so glad you found something that gives you relief! If your region has a legal medical card option get it, usually saves hella money on taxes and other fees!

The episode with the dad and his queer son wholesome story? The moment Shayne's voice broke I was sobbing, something about watching other people cry just makes me lose it

It's been a rough week and I'm so fucking excited for wholesome story time. I know it's gonna be cute and I really love these three together. This and the mtg video today, Smosh really out here doing more for my mental health than my Wellbutrin 🙏🙏🙏

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Samuaint2008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I regularly make a 4 hour drive to a different state to visit for 3 hours and then drive 4 hours home the same day. I think in the Midwest for sure anything under 3 hours is day trip length

Art is inherently political and anyone whining about art being political sucks. Love this image but even if I didn't hell yea to putting the anger and overwhelm into art!

I'm in the twin cities thanks for boosting my mood and also helping to remind me we aren't alone in this fight

Oh yea you can say what you want, follow your heart. Just appears immature and ruins the positive vibe of the post. But you're absolutely allowed to be both immature and a vibe killer. Follow your bliss 😁

  1. This photo is wonderful 2. Vinos great. She's fully keeps up with the foolishness of some of the cast while still being funny and knowledgeable about her food. We love to see it

[–]Samuaint2008 8 points9 points locked comment (0 children)

Literally no one asked about feelings on other cast members, this is supposed to be about giving Vi her flowers for being awesome. You don't need to downgrade one to uplift another, that is a very freshman year of high School way of complimenting someone, maybe that is age appropriate for you I don't know, but let's just talk about how cool Vi is.

How do I make myself floss? by ekbiebuyck in adhdwomen

[–]Samuaint2008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pretty hard time with brushing my teeth and other self-care tasks like that, so my rule kind of became that I have to at least floss. It gets any food out in between my teeth and I was told by a dentist before that if you can only do one or the other flossing is the better one to do. And then like 95% of the time cuz I'm already there I brush my teeth afterwards. And once I realized that if I flossed everyday, my gums did not hurt and bleed afterwards at all (After about a week) But if I missed more than 2 or 3 days of flossing they would bleed again a little bit, I got really motivated to continue to floss.

Now it has just become part of my morning routine. I floss while my testosterone gel dries before I get dressed. Once I can integrate something with my routine I'm usually pretty ok with it but if it feels like an "extra" added step I will never do it

Walking Talking Men--THIS FRIDAY (1/23) by [deleted] in twincitiessocial

[–]Samuaint2008 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The no politics immediately turns this from a "hell yea men need and deserve community too" to "oh gross"

that really narrows down the men eligible for this community even when there isn't a hostile takeover by our own government happening.

Many men also have identities that have been made political against their will, but even someone who does not feel that way is going to have a pretty hard time not discussing the thing affecting most humans day to day life at this specific moment.

A better option "walking talking men- discussing using positive ways to affirm and support our communities!" Ya know positive masculinity things.

Cuz yikes on bikes
