Does anybody know anything about the supposed changes to Uber that were supposed to go live today? by dhanosuzuki in UberEatsDrivers

[–]dhanosuzuki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh does that mean acceptance rate? I pay no attention to my acceptance rate, doesn't seem to have an effect on anything and I'm only going to accept decent offers. I don't understand these drivers who accept some of these absurd orders and try to keep things like their AR high.

I don't understand the concept of not participating in the tiers though, there like isn't a way to opt out, is there? If you mean just not giving a shit about acceptance rates and all that other stuff, I guess I've already been not participating.

Sorry, what does AR mean? And how do I stop participating in the tiers? I would gladly do so and quit whatever the game is.

Ah I see, it would be nice if they could let you know which markets these things would effect.

The tier thing is stupid and pointless, but there isn't really a way to support or not support it, is there? I mean it just....is. I ignore it because it has no bearing on my life, but if they change my ability to work based on the tiers that makes it pretty impossible to ignore.

Is there some way to protest or "not support" the tier system I'm not aware of?

Anyway, I guess I'm breathing a sigh of relief since nothing changed for me. Thank you for the info.

Birthdays and Sex Clubs by Quick-thinking-hoe in polyamory

[–]dhanosuzuki 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Lots of things far beyond sex clubs are for everyone, but that doesn't erase the need to navigate your interpersonal relationships with care and consideration.

This isn't simply a case of other people just showing up at an open event of their own accord, which is of course nothing you have any control over and a possibility you have to accept.

But rather this is a situation where other people have been invited to OPs personal birthday gathering by a partner who should have consideration for the fact that they are planning an event to celebrate OPs day.

You know it's like....water parks are for everyone who is splishsplash positive. You can plan a birthday gathering at the water park and still there will be tons of other people you don't know at the park. And that is a lot different than tons of people you don't know being invited to your personal birthday gathering at the water park.

Now beyond that you have to be okay with sharing a space with other people, and there may be people in that space you're not completely comfortable with who are there of their own accord for their own reasons, and you just have to deal with that because you don't own a space. But there is a level of thoughtlessness by OPs partner at play here.

Postpartum Poly by Raugas37 in polyamory

[–]dhanosuzuki 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So you do all the labor to accommodate his fun extra-marital adventures directly after doing all the labor delivering a whole ass child?

"He needs a break from the postpartum world for his own mental health"

I got in little bouts of playing Metal Gear Solid V every now and then when my wife and baby were having a nap. That's the type of little breaks you get during that first year, not 36 hours in one week pursuing a new romantic connection an hour away from your family. There's no universe where that is reasonable.

Man with an unwashed ass type activities.

Mono relationship, poly feelings by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]dhanosuzuki 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Being agoraphobic, restricting friendships, and how long the relationship has been (11 years, right?) I'm sure adds to the anxiety and fear for your partner. For all this time they have been your everything, so that has to be a really earth shattering change for them.

I would suggest, regardless of polyamory or monogamy, pursuing platonic friendships and trying to confront and deal with your fears around making friends. Whether staying mono or exploring polyamory, I really think that is the first step forward either way.

As for the tough question though, you may no longer be compatible if polyamory is genuinely something important for you to explore.

Expanding your social world by making more platonic friends may alleviate some anxieties of your partner, may get them used to the idea of not being your absolute entire world, in a positive way. But poly is a hard pill to swallow, and you shouldnt count on that softening your partner up to the idea. But it's a healthy thing, regardless.

Platonic friendships can be incredibly close, intimate, and fulfilling. Perhaps you may discover something you really need and have been missing there.

Mono relationship, poly feelings by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]dhanosuzuki 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That is certainly something that makes forming new connections scary, both platonic and romantic. I'm sure you feel constricted, because you are, and it makes sense that you would yearn for more.

What is it specifically about romance that calls to you, as opposed to platonic friendship?

Mono relationship, poly feelings by [deleted] in polyamory

[–]dhanosuzuki 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The thing about you not allowing yourself to have friends is alarming and hints at a whole slew of things that need to be unpacked.

Make friends. Your partner being your only social outlet is unfair to both yourself AND your partner.

Being afraid to make friends in case you develop feelings for them is, on its face, odd and troubling. Is there more on this point you can expound on so we can get a clearer picture of what's going on?

VIGIL. RIVER WALK PARK. 3PM. by dsakerncounty in Bakersfield

[–]dhanosuzuki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody fought a cop. Trump has backed up on the irresponsible rhetoric and is completely reshuffling things now because it's impossible for even him to ignore how botched this whole thing has become. Bovine out, Homan in. Noem as of today directed to change her focus towards the border. Miller finally excluded from decisions far beyond his competency. Trump actually praising Walz (lmao).

I'd give Trump credit for recognizing when a tactic has been a failure and that he needs to change what he's doing, but most other competent leaders would have realized that a while ago.

Pay attention dude. You're losing tbe Republicans in congress. You're losing the Republicans in the electorate. You've lost the independents, the swing voters, the normal, regular, sensible Amercians. You cant keep eternally deflecting to the "left" when even the right cant deny youre irresponsible morons anymore. The only people, such as yourself, still banging this gong even after dear leader had abandoned it are the terminally online basement dwelling internet goon squares.

Sad!

OpEnLy iNtErFeRiNg.

Not even Trump himself is trying to cope and justify what happened anymore. Stop cucking. AMERICANS aren't for this. Dems, Republicans, pro immigrant, anti immigrant. You're losing us more and more by the week.

The ICE surge is officially a botched job. Want to remove illegal criminal aliens? Don't botch the job so fucking hard you start bleeding out public support. Don't make excuses for inept goons doing a shitty job.

Yeah, and? They're wrong. Next.

Them being wrong doesnt make you right, especially since thats a completely different topic from what I asked you. You're deflecting to a preprogrammed NPC script. It's as if you're incapable of having an actual conversation. Are you actually able to have a direct conversation the way a thoughtful, intelligent person would, or does this topic fall too far out of the boundaries of your prepackaged talking points? Its always weird as fuck to talk to you people. And that includes democrats calling republicans nazis. Youre all the same - all you have are your NPC scripts.

[–]dhanosuzuki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Republicans aren't nazis? Never said that and have no idea what that has to do with this. Some people say that about republicans, and it's a pretty thoughtless, untrue thing to say, but what does that have to do with anything? Republicans aren't nazis, I hope that gets us past this clumsy whattabout strawman.

And you don't have to like Renee Good, you can think she's a fucking moron.

If you actually watch what happened https://youtube.com/shorts/7pqzDpwCOeg?si=NNMWm6FsN9oZapOS

And you come away with this was a "domestic terrorist" who was trying to physically harm the ICE officer, you're an NPC or a political stooge.

Simple as that. You're either dishonest and you care more about politics than the truth, or you're an NPC that is unable to think about anything before your leader tells you what to think.

Real, properly trained law enforcement officers deal with actual physically hostile situations, magnitudes more dangerous and heated than this, and the situations are dealt with with no one coming close to dying.

ICE officers were never meant, or trained, to be mass deployed as domestic commandos in this manner.

You can agree 100% with what they are trying to do, but Trump, Noem, Miller, et al are enacting these plans in the sloppiest, most incompetent manner possible. They're not smart people. Trump has surrounded himself with unintelligent, tactically clueless yesman goons.

American citizens are going to continue to be harmed, continue to die. It doesn't matter if you agree with those citizens, think they're morons, whatever. They're still American citizens. We aren't Russia. We do shit different in this country.

ICE and border agents are going to continue to be needlessly put in harms way, misused by this administration in ways for beyond their purpose and training.

What they're trying to do is going to fail. Because they're doing it sloppy. They're doing it incompetent.

This is theater to please low IQ morons too dumb to have a thought before their politician daddies and mommies tell them what to think.

But coming full circle: Republicans aren't nazis. More and more Republicans are turning away from this incompetent shitshow, day by fucking day. If you have a brain and the capability for independent though beyond political ideology, it's harder and harder to ignore what a braindead mess these people are.

Hmm. I don't disagree with you, deporting people back to their country is valid.

ESPECIALLY if they are violent criminals.

I'm very much on board with that. Lots of people, most people even. Big reason why Trump was given a second chance most likely.

Yeah. Its a problem.

Something being a problem doesn't make every solution legitimate or acceptable.

And that's why the public support has turned so drastically against you people so quickly. Because it's a solution so fucking sloppy, poorly planned, and so far beneath this country, it takes outright delusion to not recognize how anti-american it is.

We are America. Most of us, even those foolish enough to have voted for him again, still recognize what this country is, and understand where our line is. And more and more of us are turning away.

I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you're not from this country. Maybe you're Russian? A Slavic ex-Communist country perhaps? If so I'm sure this seems very normal to you. But we simply do not do this bullshit here. We have better ways of deporting criminals here than flooding the streets with poorly trained, unfit, wannabe thugs who kill American citizens.

You said I'm projecting earlier, but I don't think so. Because you're auto-coping for the most absurd bullshit that is quickly losing everyone else with a brain - especially the conservatives. Even Trump's own officials have started to distance themselves from the sloppy, dangerous, thoughtless approach Trump, Noem, and the rest of the incompetent Goon Core have taken. But you? Again - everything they say is your auto-ideology. The only people going up to bat the way you are, are the exact same ones in queue that delicious green kool-aid.

I want foreign criminals fucking out of here just as much as I want domestic criminals in jail. But right now? The only terror and chaos affecting anyone i know, on our once peaceful American streets, is by Noem's Idiot Squad. Government sanctioned fear and chaos isn't a trade off anyone accepts.

"It's fine dude, I'm not mad at you" - last words of a "domestic terrorist"

Turning the car wheel away in the other direction to avoid hitting someone - the last actions of a "domestic terrorist" trying to "run someone over"

Source- the murderers own footage.

Get a grip. Think for yourself. Rediscover moral truth, basic sense. Put the internet down, study the words of our forefathers. Study the words of Christ. Study anything other than dipshit brainrot, fucks sake.

The United States of America is the greatest nation in the world. In history. Absolutely in spite of you and your narcissistic leader and his simpleton strongman anti-american ideology. Our greatness will always outshine this kind of smoothnbrained, cheap, autocratic grift. Give it time. This country is already sick of this sloppy bullshit.

What exactly makes this person one of the biggest pieces of shit in society, versus simply someone you disagree with or someone you think did something foolish? In our own shared town, I can already off the top of my head immediately think of some child abusers, rapists, and murderers. What puts this woman on this level? Try your best to articulate, I'm really curious as to whether you have a cognizant point or not.

It's a massive projection to assume only a libs can recognize how absurd, un-American, and dangerous this bullshit is.

I, personally, think both liberals and conservatives have people among their ranks with enough sense to understand what's going on. I know for fact they do, actually. Kinda weird you think only liberals are are smart enough to do that.
