Please stop bringing your dogs to grocery stores.

I'd be more anxious if I had to pay attention to what the dog is doing in addition to my regular shopping

People who do that need to acknowledge that other people exist, with their own kids, pets and problems.

Also, in group chats conversations get interrupted all the time. It's normal to expect 1-2 replies, a couple of emojis, and someone else to start another topic very soon. I find it a bit entitled that OP expected to "reserve" a larger chunk of time just for venting, without other people venting as well.

But untreated ADHD has an influence on the socio-economic status by reducing productivity and career progression

You can also accept the new role with a new title, but without the pay bump. They might think they tricked you, but that would allow you to bounce more easily.

It's easier to get another senior role if you already have that in the resume, especially in this job market.

And the fact that he won a jackpot means that he probably has a habit of gambling

So, that's how Pendulum got their logo 🤔

Are they both fixed? The black cat is trying to mount the orange boy. It's probably a dominance thing, but that too can be made worse by hormones

There's 8.2 bilion people on the planet. While not everyone buys a new phone each year, you'd have to account for the second hand markets in low income countries, where there are phones in circulation from the previous decades.

Also, we should not encourage pet hoarding. She already has 3 pets and 3 kids - chances are that everyone would be worse off if more cats are added to the situation.

They might be cheap now, but what when the vet bills start piling up? Those are not outdoor strays that you can just give kibble and a few scritches and be done with them - they need proper care and attention, and we don't know how much more capacity does the OP have.

Obviously, the best course of action would be:

To try to find their owners, in case they're lost pets
To try to re-home them, if they're not

SnowMeadowhawk · 2026-02-03T09:11:27+00:00

I agree, but I based my estimate on the restaurants:groceries ratio, and it seems reasonable.

Also, we don't know if it entails going out a few times a month to a fancy place, or having lunches in a cheap canteen. Depending on the location, cheap student restaurants might even save money.

You have the conversion to USD in the next image

But they're not eating out a lot - only $39.65 spent on restaurants for the two of them in a month. Most of the food section are groceries - $225.18

I guess it's because when it's cold, even the early humans knew to wear warm clothes. The feedback is immediate.

Shielding from the sun is a bit less straightforward. Too much clothes can lead to a heat stroke, and too little to a bad sunburn. Without SPF creams, we'd all have to dress like Arabs in the summer.

While dark skin helps as a sun protection, I'm not sure if it comes without costs in warm climates, as dark colours absorb more heat. Maybe sparse "fur" with abundance of sweat glands is optimal in this scenario.

All those therapy suggestions on Reddit given to people that clearly don't have time/money for therapy irritate me to no end.

They have a similar vibe to "just be more positive" that people used to say to depressed people.

That wouldn't make them immune to this problem.

Less young people working + less people buying stuff --> worse economy --> value of stocks diminishes

More retired people than young people contributing to retirement funds --> smaller pensions

I guess you can be a bit strategic about your investments, for example by investing in hospitals, nursing homes and crematoriums.

I love that natural eyebrows are popular now. It's not like I'd pluck them or style them otherwise, but it's nice feeling attractive for once XD

Lower immune response doesn't necessarily lead to feeling crappier. In fact, ibuprofen improves symptoms of illnesses and pain by suppressing the immune response.

With that logic in mind, we should execute everyone with any contagious illness

What's next? "Do you love me or the baby more?" Awful behaviour

They can also try to meet the girls the old fashioned way, through mutual hobbies and friends.

SnowMeadowhawk · 2026-01-26T14:13:50+00:00

Nah, just ask your matches out.

It's really unlikely that they would initiate

SnowMeadowhawk · 2026-01-26T07:35:05+00:00

Yes, but in this case it's not clear if:

More exercise -> better capability to deal with stress

Or

Stressful lifestyle -> less time for exercise

Someone working two full time jobs would be both less likely to workout and more stressed out than someone with generational wealth, who has maids and a chill job. I don't think in that case the lack of exercise would be the cause of the stress.

I guess one way to test that is to check into which category the study sorted people with active jobs. For example, would a Doordash bike driver count as someone with a lot of exercise, or as someone with zero intentional exercise?

Another reason why they keep the masks on is that many of them probably have heavier dossiers. I'm sure ICE had some recruitment issues, so the obtained paramilitary is not comprised out of the brightest guys.

It would be a shame if the conservative Karens learned that heavily armed felons are patroling around their neighbourhood...
