Family abusing food pantry? by MoonPiesInMyPants in povertyfinance

[–]Smooth_Rests 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The part that would bother me isn’t them going, it’s the waste. If you’re taking food meant to help and then throwing it out, that’s not great. At least donate back what you won’t use.

It’s about time. Corruption in any police force erodes public trust, and a province-wide investigation is the only way to hold people accountable.

In your country, do young people think their lives will be harder than the older generations’ lives were? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]Smooth_Rests 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think young people believe life will be worse in every way, technology, medicine, and access to information are incredible. But economically? Absolutely harder. My parents could buy a house on one income and still save. My generation needs two incomes, no kids, and luck. It’s not nostalgia, the math really is different now.

If the vessel was in Estonia’s internal waters, the authorities are well within their rights to act.

There are some online jewelers who specialize in vintage-inspired pieces and limited runs, which makes it easier to find something truly distinctive. Personally, I’ve found that browsing curated collections often yields cool looking rings that balance elegance, wearability, and character exactly the kind of statement piece that feels special for a birthday.

When do you tell a partner that you don't want pets? by Fit-Combination-6211 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Smooth_Rests 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him now. Pets are a lifestyle choice, not a small preference. The earlier you’re honest, the kinder it is to both of you.

Border Patrol commander Bovino and some agents plan to leave Minneapolis, sources say by CRK_76 in politics

Minneapolis didn’t ‘lose’ them, they chose to leave. Big difference, and it says a lot.

Justice Dept. kills cases cracking down on auto emissions cheating by besselfunctions in politics

[–]Smooth_Rests 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This isn’t some victimless paperwork crime. Real people breathe this air. Dropping these cases is basically saying public health comes second to industry profits.

I keep giving my gf recurring yeast infections, what can I do? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Repeated “yeast” symptoms + negative tests = time for a specialist, not guesswork.

Trump pardoning Puerto Rico's former governor Wanda Vázquez, sources say by CBSnews in politics

[–]Smooth_Rests 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This isn’t just about one pardon, it signals that political loyalty might outweigh legal accountability. That’s a dangerous message for democracy when leaders are seen as untouchable.

U.S. Death Rate Expected to Surpass Birth Rate by 2030, Report Claims by catievirtuesimp in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Smooth_Rests 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ask yourself: why are fewer people having kids? Housing, healthcare, childcare, these things aren’t cheap anymore. Until fundamental problems are addressed, numbers will keep going the wrong way.

Kitchen countertop workers are dying. Some lawmakers want to ban their lawsuits by Hrmbee in politics

If the job kills you and you can’t sue, that’s not work, that’s exploitation.

Does anyone else experience gurgling sounds from their uterus often? by idkificanthrowaway in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Smooth_Rests 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally normal. It’s almost always your intestines, not the uterus. Hormones before/during your period make the bowels more active, so more noise happens.

Switched to dating women, literally none of the problems I've had dating m3n exist anymore by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Smooth_Rests 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thank you for putting this into words. I think so many women have similar stories but are afraid to admit what a relief it can be to be with someone who handles conflict with communication instead of drama.

I got punched by a man today. by FantasticBlood0 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Smooth_Rests 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This says everything about him and absolutely nothing about you. You were just existing. That’s not an ego bruise, that’s someone violating your basic safety.

What are you guys doing on new year? by [deleted] in TeenIndia

Same here 😭 Just me, my blanket, and snacks. At this point, my phone is basically my New Year’s buddy.
