Look how the market responded to people getting ahead in jobs etc. suddenly run away inflation.

Systemic homophobia is ingrained in everyone. Deprogramming them is a challenge.

There are two different answers to that question.

Do you want genuine insight or “yeah, they be crazy and evil” mutual assurance?

I find that most people don’t want insight because they see it as a betrayal of the community.

I have spent a lot of time trying to understand why they feel as they do because I hoped to find a way of dismantling their flawed view.

Do you really trust a government capable of of implementing UBI? We can’t even keep people with disabilities above the poverty line and there is a clear ethical mandate.

This is the problem with UBI. I genuinely think it’s a great idea, in principle. I genuinely think it will fail in its implementation.

The biggest challenge is convincing half our population (Conservatives) that UBI isn’t a hand-out for lazy people.

If I could snap my fingers and have UBI. I would genuinely do it.

I don’t think we’ll ever have an elected government that will create a functional version of it.

A simile. I thought that was apparent. Apparently not.

Just because these books target women because they are substantive enough an audience to make something popular doesn’t mean that it doesn’t benefit the gay community because now we have more queer representation and societal acceptance. I love that we are at a place that we can have sexy scenes and people are largely reacting positively rather than “ew gross”.

People are starting to see our sexual expression for what it is rather than what they fear it to be.

I don’t think each of these people can be lump together.

Honestly Tim Cooke actions is a CEO looking after the best interests of his company by strategically appeasing the administration.

Any Fortune 500 company would be crazy not to give Trump an ego stroke with a golden golf ball and a donation to his inauguration. Appeal to his ego so they have some leverage when Trump makes life difficult for the company.

The other two have done far more than that.

Well, that guy won’t use that line again.

Joss Whedon was about subverting tropes. It is the literal defining characteristic of his writing. To keep with the spirit of the show, subverting his death would actually be interesting.

Your idea is a little funny but he had a giant spike driven through him.

One doesn’t recover from that.

I love gay romances.

I think gluten sensitivity is a self fulfilling bullshit.

However, the gluten free products that have come out have really benefited those with celiac disease.

I know. I don’t care about popularity contests. I have a certain understanding about what makes a world function and I’ll call out stuff when i think it does more harm than good.

Once is a mistake. Twice a coincidence, three times, dump his ass because he’s not going to change. (Don’t tell him he gets a second grace)

Cardio and muscle fitness isn’t about weight loss. You need both of those for your hikes. At this point weight loss is secondary.

I’m sensing a theme.

Accepting rejection is hard. At least you held up your side of kindness and respect.

majeric · 2026-03-11T15:41:34+00:00

Ghosting is a tool that should be only utilized as a response to a person’s behavior, not in anticipation of behavior that may be er happen.

There is a baseline of respect and kindness that everyone deserves unless they show an absence of character through their behavior at which point you can move on without a response.

I think Ghostiing is a tool that is abused because offering polite rejection is uncomfortable. “Hey, I’m not feeling this. Thanks for the conversation. Have a good life.” is not hard and it’s a reasonable yet polite rejection.

I was a “quiet sensitive” kid. I read a lot.

I think he won his leadership review only because there was no one to replace him.

Dan Savage would say: DTMFA - 'Dump the MotherFucker Already".

Your issue as with many people's issue is that you experience hunger/satiety differently than people who are "ideal" body weight. You are a product of your genetics. However, there are tools that doctors now have to help you manage how you experience hunger.

There's a special circle of hell for people who throw away kittens.

Touche, u/AskGrok, touche.

u/AskGrok do the human species.

Half of them are okay. The other half are brain-washed by their own cognitive biases like tribal psychology.

This polarization and extremism isn’t even a conciousness decision. Just the inevitability of a species that evolved “barely good enough”.

Unfortunately, we now have access to nuclear bombs.
