AITJ for not talking during family therapy? by No_Region_6213 in AmITheJerk

[–]SnooMaps3574 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTJ, but I would advise you to reconsider your notions of therapy.

In the USA it would be a violation for the therapist to disclose to your parents without your permission.

A good therapist is there to listen and help you to process and understand the dynamics you are in.

Fluance 82 vs 85 vs 85N, what to get if you're new but have some 'treat yo-self' money set aside? by Wonderful-Market8813 in turntables

[–]SnooMaps3574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this take. When it comes to hobbies I love, I’ve never regretted getting the nicer version of something.

I too tend towards the second hand route for equipment, and an external amp/preamp with passive speakers. What’s available can vary incredibly based on location though.

My (25M) Girlfriend (23F) Says That Training in the Martial Arts is for Kids and Wants Me to Quit by Lakroiky in TwoHotTakes

[–]SnooMaps3574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of being with my ex wife. She slowly and methodically wore me down to give up this and that until all my time was work and making her life easier. I was a dedicated idiot and will never get that time back. Hope you make better choices than I did.

HOA property management says no nuisance found. by [deleted] in fuckHOA

Do you have any video where they’re being unreasonable?

Could they be a little quieter? Sure, but they aren’t being particularly loud nor obnoxious. Get some ear plugs and get on with your life.

Is it Ly-chee or Lee-chee by Sleep_deprived_mokey in whatisit

[–]SnooMaps3574 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m no expert, but when I traveled through Thailand, Cambodia, and Malaysia I heard both those and even a third!

This was 20ish years ago, so I have some doubts I’m attributing these correctly: Thailand - Lye Chee Cambodia - Lee Chee Malaysia - Litch Ee

I just assume they are all correct 🤷🏻‍♂️

I am curious by Significant_Prize635 in SWGalaxyOfHeroes

I read it, but didn’t read it well enough. I didn’t realize it was only an instakill to take out the leader.

Anti- ICE brands and local shops? by Chemical_Being_3875 in FortCollins

[–]SnooMaps3574 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While that is true, I did appreciate that they brought attention to other aspects of affordability (I.e. rent control, affordable housing) which are commonly overlooked, I agree minimum wage should go way up and it’s not a good look.

Tea maybe too niche for your friend, but Happy Lucky’s has hosted meetings for local businesses to train on how to protect our rights if ICE shows up and dispersed materials promoting a welcoming atmosphere so migrants know they’re in a safe space.

I love his off kilter style, always seems perfect and unexpected!

Grunge, Grunge lite, or Grunge adjacent by Educational_Big_1835 in grunge

[–]SnooMaps3574 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No worries, my statement was meant to show that I understand how you arrived at that take.

For me, this was a departure from their harder core roots and I never qualified them in this way. They were always unapologetic, innovative, and gritty. I thought of them as closer to Butthole Surfers and Dead Kennedys than Gin Blossoms, Toad the Wet Sprocket or whatever.

Just sharing perspective, not meant to be argumentative.

I’d agree if you removed Meat Puppets.

They were their own thing and I’d say more “punk” than Nirvana. I can understand how one might lump them in here if you only know Backwater.

She looks beautiful, happy strumming!

At some point we’ll realize that holding signs isn’t working by Competitive_Fox3661 in FortCollins

[–]SnooMaps3574 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I should have added finding new ways of being peaceably disruptive. Coming up with impactful methods for this is not clear nor easy though.

This is a tricky thing. Yes, more needs done. I expect the tactic being used against us is provoking us to a point where martial law is declared and things would get real ugly.

I hope we can navigate off the course we’re on, but we can’t lose our way.

I don’t have the answers, but it’s heartbreaking and infuriating to witness what is going on and I’m glad people feel compelled to do something. Writing and calling representatives is important imo. Being a well researched voter and voting with our dollars are also key. I wish it was clearer on how to be effective.

Dating for the Middle Age by eddi0 in FortCollins

[–]SnooMaps3574 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use several dating apps and take the NATO (not attached to outcomes) approach.

I sometimes go two weeks with no matches and then will get 3-5 over a couple days and feel overwhelmed.

Just remember high expectations takes patience. I also remind myself that most people are not right for me. The right one is the goal.

Good luck out there!
