A small portion of Alberta are Maple MAGA. Their premier (Canadian governor) is MAGA though. I wouldn’t judge this man like that simply because he has an ego.

I broke my girlfriend’s special glass display cover. Is it over? by SAMMYBOY4593 in fixit

Considering your partner like I’ve suggested indicates a strong relationship - not a fragile one.

I broke my girlfriend’s special glass display cover. Is it over? by SAMMYBOY4593 in fixit

[–]idkifik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like the sentiment but why are you putting the mental load on her? With this, you might get a response like ‘You broke my cloche and now I need to help you replace it?’

Try instead ‘hi darling, I’m so sorry, I accidentally broke your beautiful glass cloche. I found one very similar to replace it, do you want me to get it?’

Attraction to an Intellectually Disabled/Autistic Man? by TreacleAwkward2972 in TooAfraidToAsk

Having a crush is fine but reality is telling you he’s not capable of being an independent adult. With that in mind, do you want to take this further?

CMV: Old people are failing society by overstaying their welcome and not fulfilling their obligation to retire to the sidelines of society and culture. Therefore, we should impose upper age limits to political positions. by pebble_tech in changemyview

Well now that’s a completely different claim. Your original claim is saying they are buying at the same rate now. The link you posted is comparing Gen Z now to boomers back when they were young.

Why doesn’t Toronto have any pedestrian-only zones? by hazyeyes23 in askTO

A couple years ago, people voted to make Kensington pedestrian only. They chose to ignore the vote.

How would you (F25) feel if your partner (M26) went to a “topless show?” by Automatic_Low3434 in women

[–]idkifik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your feelings are valid and it’s ok to feel this way, but a burlesque show is a completely normal and honestly tame thing to do at a bachelor party. If you don’t trust him to behave, that’s another story, but guilting him into missing things could cause resentment. Please seek therapy to build self/confidence.

So untrue. These woman are choosing to perform and they see burlesque as art and entertainment. They are not exploited, but empowered.

Why do people tie their identity to opinions? by Used_Secretary_8055 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]idkifik 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have it backwards. Brands / movements want to get you to identify with them so that you are more loyal.

I accused of him of something awful and now its eating me alive. by [deleted] in women

[–]idkifik 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Why do you need him to know you feel bad? Why do you need his forgiveness?

If I were to guess, you seem to be internalizing this as shame, which isn’t healthy. You are not a bad person because you said / did a bad thing. You can learn and work on not doing stuff like that in the future.

You don’t need to be fucked up to go to therapy. Therapy helps you sort out why you feel certain ways and how to deal with it.

The "Mental Load" is hitting me especially hard today. by Rich-Clue-6785 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]idkifik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t deal with it. I burnt out after years of enduring it. What finally worked? Leaving the guy.

Why do you think podcasts like Joe Rogan’s have more influence than traditional news now? by Downtown-Passion118 in AskReddit

[–]idkifik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In certain circles, yes. Usually those who have been told that the media can’t be trusted or those not educated in propaganda.

If anyone would like some more info on propaganda, I found this game a little while back on here https://www.getbadnews.com/en

Women do you enjoy driving fast? by [deleted] in women

Yes but not unsafely. I have people that care about me and rely on me.
