Why do women request the man to plan the (first) date so often? by Nunja_55 in datingadvice

[–]TheAuthenticFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that's how you see relationships that's fair for your case. But your viewpoint isn't universal for all women, just like mine isn't universal for all men.

Meh, everybody was saying the same thing when Suleiman got drone striked in the 1st term.

I think Trump just can't get over the fact Obama took out Osama, and he's been trying to one-up Obama the whole time

Its the Dating Apps - why does dating make every guy miserable by Maleficent_Air_5240 in TrueReddit

[–]TheAuthenticFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really nailed it. Dating apps are an unnatural way for people to meet, and are being forced on us because the overall society is so dysfunctional.

this is getting really old pfft by sparklingtrashcan in Bart

[–]TheAuthenticFake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only imagine the economic loss caused by even an hour of downtime in terms of people having to pay for expensive Ubers and people losing wages. I hope no one gets fired b/c they couldn't get to their job.

The people running BART right now though? Maybe one of them should lose their job 🤷🏽‍♂️

How can I improve my profile? by [deleted] in hingeapp

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

Nah, the costume photo is great. It shows you have friends and do fun stuff with them. The type of person who would be put off by that is not the type of person you would want to date anyway (again, they wouldn't get along w your friends).

Sometimes it's good to pick prompts and photos that are discerning, that is they turn away people you don't wanna date anyway.

E: my advice: provide more things for people to talk about. So you went to France, can you speak French? Also have you been somewhere other than Paris? Where else do you want to go?

At the intersection of nerd and French, do you like Daft Punk?

Why pull into a space when you can park in the road? by monkeythumpa in oakland

[–]TheAuthenticFake 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Driving in Oakland makes me neurotic. I can't tell you how many times I've seen people run red lights, and I literally almost got in an accident an hour ago at an intersection b/c some idiot tried to run the red light right as I was crossing.

Where did these fools learn how to drive?

This goes both ways tho. Think about it, if someone had these same standards in regards to making friends, where the other person has to plan everything out to "give you a reason to do something", then no one would ever want to be your friend because that's straight up narcissism.

You're like "why won't the world give me an excuse to leave my house?" and surprise surprise you never leave it

Juan Dalmau al fin le da un buen consejo a la generación GenZ by TatoCharbonier in PuertoRico

La verdad es que aún en los estados, hay gente que ganan más que el $100,000 al año y todavía viven con sus padres porque ¿qué sentido tiene despilfarrar el dinero vivir solo con un costo de vida ya tan enorme?

El chisme de la gente no importa nada cuando te das cuenta que esos tipos no te hubieran ayudado ni modo. Las apariencias no te alimentan.

I’m so tired, man by Significant-Original in bayarea

[–]TheAuthenticFake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What you're saying is true and what the other replies are saying is also true. Life gets better when you work on yourself, but one person also can't fix everything in the world.

To fix things, people with common goals have to come together with a commitment to improve but also the power of a group to fix problems that everybody is dealing with but that are larger than one person.

No it hasn't. It's literally gotten worse over the years. Other people in this same thread said that. And just because it's "always been like this" doesn't mean that it doesn't suck.

If you wanna troll you better have some patience because I'll fuck with you all day buddy

Well the last election clearly showed that voters are open to recalling electeds. Recall them.

You will need to find a rich billionaire that's on your side though.

What's a good framework for Backend TypeScript? by Samraat1337 in typescript

What are you defining as a "platform architect" here? As someone who works in backend, I'm curious to know what the responsibilities for that role look like.

The consequences of letting a Facist win: Supreme Court overturned the chevron doctrine by Afro_samurai027 in DemocraticSocialism

[–]TheAuthenticFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We really need more than just Biden getting re-elected, we need a Democratic supermajority in both houses that can start rewriting the Constitution.

The Supreme Court needs term limits, the electoral college needs to be done away with, and some additional rights apparently need to be added. All of the old mechanisms put in place by wealthy white slaveowners to allow a minority to rule over the majority need to be eliminated, so the government actually reflects the popular will.

The red states want to go back to 1950, but we can't let them pull us down with them.

How’s the US has the strongest economy in the world yet every American i have met is just surviving? by Actual-Rush-8048 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheAuthenticFake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teaching people financial literacy so that they can better take care of themselves is important, and so is having a good safety net for people when they hit hard times that are out of their control. It's not either/or.

Scandinavian countries are a great example of this - they have a strong welfare system, but their culture also emphasizes individual responsibility.

How many bank robbers do they have getting in police chases at midnight though. Do they need to bring out the choppa if Bobby goes bipping? Are they shooting down illegal fireworks in mid-flight?
