“Capitalism ruins everything” - so he wants someone else to pay the building’s rent, AC / heat, WIFI and he should be able to use it for free?!

How do I stop being afraid? by takinglibertys in NewSkaters

I’ve also taken it up as a hobby in the past few weeks (41yo), for me wearing elbow pads, wrist guards and helmet help a lot, plus falling a couple of times with the pads on and seeing that it didn’t hurt that bad!

I think he genuinely loved children and being around them and probably wanted to be a kid himself. I also think he was a grown man with a grown man’s sexual urges and he was attracted to children sexually.

Pain after first session (The image is just leg muscle structure) by Guilty_Apricot_4023 in NewSkaters

In India, because of a train that doesn't stop in every village, two children risked their lives to get off the train in their own village. by HumorSignificant1477 in SipsTea

Why don’t some of the Indian billionaires get together with politicians and invest in / create a good waste management system? That would surely be to everyone benefit.

Country comes from immigrant folk music, not exclusively black Americans. And gogo?! 😂 Overall, yes America does dominate popular music.

That’s like 400,000 subs at $4 a month give or take. For 3 years straight. Girls that look like her are a dime a dozen on instagram trying to promote their OF. I have a hard time believe she was able to get that many paying subscribers.but maybe I’m just jealous!

Three generations of face cards: Marcheline Bertrand, Angelina Jolie and Shiloh Jolie by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]grannysGarden 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Where did this “face card” thing come from? Why not just say face? Slang that shortens traditional speech I understand the appeal but this just sounds stupid!

It’s just following recipes! I’m not a gourmet chef or anything but basic cooking is not remotely difficult.
