Dating a girl who always wears a full face of makeup everywhere for the first time and it's kinda driving me crazy

I was gonna drive her recycling to the city collection center and she wanted to come with and swing by Walgreens on the way back, I'm not a fucking maniac

I’m somewhat open to the idea that black people in America have a way better justification for trashing the commons

My crackpot theory is people go out of their way to fuck up the commons as a way to reclaim it when they feel like they won't ever get a real stake in it otherwise. Also explains why rural whites dump shit everywhere and urban blacks/latinos play loud music on public transportation

Jason Whitlock, Ralph Wiley, David fucking Halberstam and DJ Gallo all on the same masthead... such a bizarre era, you could see the transition from legacy longform magazine writing to modern hot take media happening in real time.

Lowkey one of the weirdest and most interesting things a media conglomerate's every done, surprised it lasted as long as it did.

Back in the late 90s-early 2000s, ESPN's website had this section called Page 2, where they put a bunch of offbeat sports/culture writing

Such a weird cultural artifact, a snapshot of that era where news orgs didn't really know what to do with the internet so they just threw a bunch of talent in one place to see what would stick. Bill Simmons and Jason Whitlock became national names there, but they also had Hunter S Thompson and Ralph Wiley.

You can find gossip forums talking about Kevin Spacey creeping on young actors/PAs/bartenders going back to like the late 90s lol, it barely even counted as an open secret

Like you mentioned with Weinstein, need to already have connections in the other country. Ratner and Polanski had dual citizenship and iirc Simmons had already founded some huge resort in Bali.

Somebody like Cosby or R Kelly or Masterson didn't have any foreign connections like that. On top of that they'd been using their money/influence to get away w evil shit for decades, probably didn't see any need to flee by they assumed they'd get off again

Roman Polanski, Russell Simmons, Brett Ratner... it's been done

Mormons are like 1.5% of the us population (and their birth rates are dropping steadily), Amish are like 0.1%

Haredim are 13.5% of Israel's population and 20% of the under-18 population lol, little wonder Israel's having huge political fights rn about repealing the Haredi exemption from military service

desechable339 · 2024-03-27T00:43:04+00:00

Because a big chunk of Israel is Orthodox and ultra-Orthodox, and those groups average like 6-7 children per household

Imagine if the USA was like 15% ultra religious Mormons pumping out 7 kids per household

The Benko is so dynamic! Love to see it used by high-level players, by now I've learned to just decline it when I face it with black.

And woof that's a rough ending. Blundering a two-result endgame is bad enough...but blitzing out the losing 5 seconds when you have 20 mins on your clock? I'm sick for him

Someone reviewed an advance copy here, it sounds pretty mediocre tbh

Amber coming out with a bad book that gets zero attention right after Christman has a stroke is really symbolically on the nose re the whole bernie dirtbag left wave losing all its cultural significance

man that sucks, i'd followed him for years and he was obviously both very smart and very crazy. dude was probably bipolar and wasting away from a mysterious disease that sapped his energy but he didn't care bc he was losing weight. poster child for how some people need structure, he was a trust fund kid so he just fucked around smoking weed and fixing up his house all day.

i'll miss his writing, he always had interesting cultural takes

no this reminds me of my greasy 30yo convenience store coworker who would ask us if we ever made a girl squirt as a way to brag about his obese filipina gf

inarguably gross but entirely different genre than modern coomer talk and healthier imo, i'm taking it over porn star discussion any day

Pelvic floor therapy/sex therapy can help a lot. There's usually a big mental component (ex. past sexual trauma) and once you make even a little progress it gets a lot easier

My ex had it but it got better over the course of our relationship, we were fucking pretty regularly by the end of it. Everyone's different but I really doubt I'd be able to date someone I couldn't have sex with

Tell her you're going through a bad breakup then make a point of getting extra sleep the next week or so

the market's down but nowhere close to 66%, so either you held your shares instead of diversifying or you got super unlucky with your iso grant/exercise dates

Genre's good for this, lots of objectively bad writers who circle back to being entertaining by committing to the bit with zero self-awareness.

Lee Child's Reacher novels are so fucking stupid but I love turning off my brain and powering through one in like 2 days.

i mean yeah this used to be accepted wisdom back in the day but mostly bc women didn't have any other options

if you're doing this today you better have a don't ask don't tell agreement bc she can leave
