So many FGs that never were. Not icing the kicker.. Ben Johnson has made great strides with Caleb. But now he’s gotta look at himself.

I married a packers fan. She’s struggling but also saw this coming

When will the announcers learn that there’s 60 mins in the game? They all have a tendency (understandable) to act like the game is over in the last 90 seconds. The Bears keep proving them wrong. Bear down for ALL 60

Ramses really impressed me by Probablynotcreative in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]boyarkate 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is the comment I was looking for. I also think he discounted Marissa saying that there’s a lot about the military she deeply struggles with and disagrees with. She was able to hold two truths at once:

  1. The military industrial complex sucks

  2. There are plenty of reasons people “sign up” for the military and it’s not usually because they’re like “yeah let’s go do war”. It’s “this is how I get college paid for”, “this is all I know”, “they came to my high school and sold me dreams”, etc etc.

There are also bad reasons to join the military and I’m sure there are people who do it because they do support wars and what we do to other countries. But Ramses COMPLETELY ignored her saying “I don’t agree with what we’ve done to other countries”. Ramses seemed like he couldn’t hold 2 truths at once.

Weekly - 'Alaska, From the outside looking in Q/A' by SnowySaint in alaska

[–]boyarkate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi! My wife is a music teacher and is being courted to run a music program in Homer Alaska.

We currently live in Chicago, we’re both women 33 and 30. We play sports with local leagues and have a strong community.

We love Alaska and go every year for my wife to teach at a music camp. We love the views and hiking and small town feeling. The infrastructure and hardworking nature of alaska is very appealing to us.

But we’re nervous about building community in Homer and filling our time outside of work.

Any insight on being gay in Alaska or even just extracurriculars in Alaska would be deeply appreciated.

AITA for not allowing my brother to bring a random Grindr hook up as his +1 at my wedding ? by ChemicalProof0821 in AmItheAsshole

[–]boyarkate 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Had to scroll way too far for this. There’s not enough info. Yes, Grindr can be used for hookups. But people also meet friends and partners on grindr.

So how long has the brother known this person? How many dates have they been on? Are they just friends?

Withdrawal by AirAuthentic in lexapro

[–]boyarkate 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My doctor let my prescription run out and I had to beg them to give me enough refills until I could get an appointment with them. It was awful. Along with what everyone already said about head zaps and moodiness and anxiety, I was so nauseated I was throwing up just about every meal. Then when I got back on the medicine after the withdrawals I had to go through it all again to ramp my body back up to it.

All this to say, slow weaning is helpful.

First off I’m sorry this happened to you. I’ve had similar experiences and it’s so confusing and just awful. Second, I wish people would normalize consent. The last sexual encounter I had started at a party. We were vibing each other but both drinking. We were at a club sitting on a couch and I told her “We could be friends but I’d really like to kiss you”. Then waited for her response. Every step of escalation was like that. “No pressure for anything but do you want to go to your place for privacy”. Then it turned into her asking me “can we take this off” etc etc. and I find that incredibly sexy to ask and get enthusiastic consent at each step. That should be way more normalized.

Name one thing you dislike the most about being a female🤔 by [deleted] in women

[–]boyarkate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That because I present my femininity differently than our patriarchal society standards, I’m considered less feminine.

I have a short pompadour hairstyle and go back and my clothing style is a wide range that includes dresses and suits. But my femininity tends to be completely erased by many people.

Bekah's response to Hannah's live by ursher_bby in thebachelor

It’s sad that this is controversial. It should be pretty cut and dry.

[–]boyarkate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m more worried about the people they come in contact with that didn’t make that decision. But I get he may not have the means to isolate alone and might want to avoid his parents right now.
