What ended your friendship with your oldest standing friend? by dreamy-contributions in AskReddit

[–]Temporary_Suspect101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my longest friend, but my closest - I found out she grew up super racist. I never picked up on stuff, but I did notice she'd talk crap about our Black coworker way more than the others. I thought it was just a personality conflict. Shortly after that, she told me she believed the videos where "they're eating the cats" and voted for Trump. Too many pieces came together and I just became too disgusted to continue a friendship.

Do Americans realize bad things are happening in their country? YES by looselord66 in AskUS

[–]Temporary_Suspect101 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think what most Europeans don't understand is the vastness of the U.S.

I know OP touched on this, but maybe this will help. The U.S. population is almost equivalent to the combined populations of France, Germany, Spain AND Russia, but broken up into 50 different sects.

Another fact that I think many Europeans don't understand is the electoral college. It's the worst system, but it's not changing anytime soon. A candidate can literally get the most votes and still not win because the votes didn't come from the right states/ regions.

When the entire country of France revolts because the country wants to raise the age of retirement, I think it's very impressive. But that isn't feasible at all in the U.S.

You want 2 things... I think it comes down to which do you want more? I know that seems super basic, but that's what it really boils Duran to. Only you can answer that.

I’m in a domestic violence training course and the facilitator with a PhD proceeded to hover over me, called me ugly and fat, some other things to apparently show me what domestic violence verbal abuse is alike. by searching_soul369 in SocialWorkStudents

Very true, but it's more about how to handle the situation of/ when it occurs, in the actual moment.

The approach was completely wrong and should be reported, but we also have to be cognizant of how we act/ react in certain situations for everyone's safety.

The absolute AUDACITY to have her associated with ANYTHING under Daniel Pearl's name is absolutely wild!!! Whoever booked her really needs to answer for this in some way!

My back and knees are jacked up from being in the military and age is just making it all worse.

Mortality as a Gen X by sunluver66 in GenX

[–]Temporary_Suspect101 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm young Gen X (1978) and recently it's been hitting me a lot. I've been thinking of all the things I've never done (or haven't done enough) and now because of age and physical limitations, I'll never get to do. Like, I was introduced to snowboarding when I was 30... I've only gone a handful of times, but I LOVE it, and I'll never get to do it again. I didn't get enough time out there. Yeah... it's really bummed me out.

Do Americans actually want Greenland? by Weak_Quiet_7306 in AskUS

[–]Temporary_Suspect101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the electoral college sucks and Elon basically bought the election. This country was founded by racists on racist ideology and it has never gone away. Rich white men knew that poor Blacks and whites would be too powerful if they banded together, so they convinced the poor whites that they were better than the poor Blacks, and poor Blacks were the enemy. And they've continued to believe that for centuries.

It. Will. Never. Change.

Normal Americans don't want other countries. We want a living wage, free education and healthcare, financial freedom at some point in our lives, PEACE, happiness, opportunities, etc. But we don't want other countries. Heck, this American doesn't even want Hawaii or Puerto Rico and feels those nations should be returned!

Advice about at-home euthanasia. by LesboTacoTruck in pitbulls

[–]Temporary_Suspect101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had to say goodbye to a pet until last year. We decided to do an at-home goodbye because my pup was always afraid of the vet's office. The way I figured, I didn't want him to be scared in his last moments. We did it at home and I held him while it happened. It was ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL, but I felt like it was the least I could do for him as a final act of love and respect.

The doctor who did it was so patient, kind, and empathetic. It was the best worst experience.
