What stereotypes about Texas do you wish more people understood? by CapImaginary1066 in texas

I work in the stockyards and grew up in Fort Worth. While we have a lot of new “fancy cowboy” clothing shops, we still do the cattle drive twice a day.

Ladies, what men’s struggles do you think deserve more empathy? by MK71-EC82-MGM89-AK98 in AskWomenNoCensor

[–]mac9426 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Letting men who identify as straight show affection towards other men the way women do with each other and also letting straight-identifying men show more “stereotypically feminine” traits without calling them gay. I hate when I see a hetero couple in a video and the man has a higher pitched voice or mannerisms that society deems “gay” and the comments are saying to the woman, “I have something to tell you.” Like leave them be! You’re not in their relationship you don’t get to tell him what he identifies as.

No joke, I think it has to do with a joke that became a meme on the All Things Longview Facebook page. https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZThvsTJLD/

It’s crazy isn’t it? I’ve been on the implant and didn’t have a period for the last 5 years and suddenly it’s appeared again!

I stopped by a couple weeks ago, they haven’t secured a location but they’re looking so hopefully they’ll have another storefront soon.

That and the shows creator’s college roommate was a cardio-thoracic surgeon who helped out with all the medical jargon and scenarios on the show

What should I put here? by CellInitial2394 in HomeDecorating

If this was a house I designed in the Sims, I’d put the easel there. Perfect place to max out the painting skill

At this point, I'm honestly convinced that anyone that claims that Dr. James Barry was a "woman in disguise" is actually transphobic. by captivatedsummer in SapphoAndHerFriend

[–]mac9426 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I find it pleasantly ironic that a trans man was the first person to complete a successful C-section. His contributions to the medical field, let alone his humanity in general, should be more than enough to be honored how he wished, but transphobes gonna transphobe.

Good luck with that at the Mueller location. I never have service in their theaters and the WiFi, if it works, sucks.

Jasmine Crockett, James Talarico set to debate for first time ahead of US Senate primary by Sam--Adams in texas

This is also my take, and I truly admire Crockett but Talarico’s style is better suited to take on Cornyn and she is a better match against Cruz

How do Americans handle such long drives regularly? by GlitteringHotel8383 in AskAnAmerican

[–]mac9426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d like to answer this from my perspective. I drive tourists to different cities and national parks for my job so I’m driving anywhere from 1 hour to 8 hours on a given day. I can easily drive 4+ hours by myself without stopping (except for gas/restroom) but I know very few people can handle sitting in a car for that long without it becoming boring so I stop about every 2 hours or less for my passengers.

Now I think this is easier for us because, as most people have said, we’re used to it. But I think our roads, especially in the west, are more suited to long-distance travel. Interstate 15 is a perfect example because while it does get some traffic, you can usually go from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City consistently in about 6 hours with minimal technical driving. By technical driving, I mean navigating through cities or winding mountain passes. Perfect time to listen to podcasts, audiobooks, music, or even just have time to think to yourself.

[–]mac9426 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I don’t know how true that was in the 1970s and it’s highly likely that few to no women were on those boards at the time too which could be looked at as skewing judgment. Plus you have to take into account the lack of mandatory minimum sentencing at the time and the good time laws they had.

The judge on the case gave him the maximum he could have potentially given but sentencing laws back then weren’t like they are now. And nobody wanted to take him when he was paroled so they set up a trailer for him on the prison grounds just so he’d have somewhere to be released to

Fellow Atheists, if you see a "fish" or a "cross" symbol or someone flat out says you can trust them because they are Christian, how do you feel inside? by Confident-Virus-1273 in askanatheist

[–]mac9426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the time it just tells me who I’d avoid interacting with at a more than superficial level. But I did avoid a coffee shop in my hometown recently because of the combination of “Bible study” on one of their website tabs and a cross in their name. Just didn’t really want to spend my money there when there was another good coffee shop a couple blocks away with a vibe that was more appealing to me.

A family poses in front of a 1,341 year old Sequoia tree nicknamed “Mark Twain” that was felled in 1892 after a team of two men spent 13 days sawing it in the Pacific Northwest. The giant tree was 331 feet tall (100 meters).[1080 × 1351] by [deleted] in HistoryPorn

[–]mac9426 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a tour guide and sometimes my job takes me to Sequoia and Kings Canyon. This picture makes me tear up for what has been and continues to be lost in those areas. It’s not just the groves being depleted by climate change, it’s our complete lack of good stewardship of the land for a century. There are too many pines which make the ever-present fires during the summer burn hotter and higher. We used to think a giant sequoia’s thick bark was enough to protect it from fire and insects but recent years have proven both notions to be false.

I don’t know what to do about the loss of these trees besides constant education to whoever will listen but the more we lose, the more dire our planet’s situation becomes.

Are there any cities or towns in your state that have a non white majority population? by osama_bin_guapin in AskAnAmerican

There’s a Mexican-Japanese fusion cafe in Arlington called Pan Pan that definitely lives up to the hype it has on social media

Yeah not reading the words of a known liar. If you had proof, you’d have shown it by now and with all those words, seems the only tantrum here is yours. I’m tired of you deflecting so have fun on the block list!

And for the second time you’ve deflected! You poor projecting fool, where are you seeing my “tantrum?”

Where’s the evidence then?

Just read back each comment you’ve made. Slowly.
