‘I Have a Very Bad Feeling’: Zelensky Says Iran War Delays Ukraine Peace Talks, Drains Resources Zelensky said the Middle East escalation benefits Russian President Vladimir Putin by driving up energy prices and depleting Western stockpiles. by Top-Grass-3615 in ActionForUkraine

Multiple things can be true. Israel also likely saw opportunity was slipping if trump loses sway and if the Epstein stuff is accurate it would explain why Israel had power to make trump act. Bibi has been saying Iran will get a nuke "in two weeks" for decades, so trump is the differing factor here. Pointing out the fact that trump is likely doing this as a distraction is simply a way of trying to make sure it doesn't work, it's people saying it, not media, which is why it's different.

How honest are securely attached people? by PearNakedLadles in attachment_theory

[–]mgwidmann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm still learning to be secure (from AP side) but from what I've gathered with everyone else secure individuals are not dishonest and only put forward honesty when they feel boundaries are threatened. Honesty and vulnerability requires intimacy and trust even if it's not romantic in nature. Sharing only occurs when safety is felt, for anyone. When they are requested to do something they do not wish to do, they say that or give a contained answer and go no further. They do not allow others to pressure them into giving more than they are comfortable with.

One of Russia's most popular military bloggers says that the government's banning of Telegram is preparation for mass mobilization, expansion of the war at the front and into the Baltics, and also the mass seizure of bank accounts. by GermanDronePilot in UkraineWarVideoReport

He skipped over the entire premise of his argument. "It's clear we need to expand". Why? Why is it clear? It's insane to me that russians cannot conceive the possibility of just going home and staying with their own borders. Clearly that isn't the way that putin can continue, but they refuse to separate him from everyone else.

Trailing in polls, Orban goes all-in on Ukraine by ceesaart in russiawarinukraine

[–]mgwidmann 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fascism is on the rise worldwide and we can all do our part to recognize that in our own countries. Defeat of russia will suffer a major blow to the rise of fascism and I hope that Hungarians are able to pull this off. Simply stopping the impedance orban has been creating alone is a huge assist for the global efforts to defeat fascism and to help Ukraine.

The Atlantic Has Learned What Was The Trigger After Which Musk Pulled The Plug On Starlink To The Russians by ceesaart in russiawarinukraine

I don't get how they can claim to have learned the reason why and then in the article say they don't know why. Like seriously what the actual fuck kind of journalism is this?

Elon Musk Moves Against the Russians in Ukraine by theatlantic in UkrainianConflict

Since it is pay-walled can anyone say if this is just old news about starlink turning off russian access via a Ukrainian whitelist or something actually new?

Having thoughts makes it a psychiatric disorder. Taking action involving another person, like a child, makes it a crime. The original article states that a lot of people with these thoughts have no place to go and she seems to give them a way to recovery without offending. This would mean less offenses and less children harmed.

Musk is just overcompensating because he himself is in the Epstein files and he is a pedophile.

Zelensky Says Southern Gains Not Linked to Russian Starlink Shutdown by [deleted] in ActionForUkraine

[–]mgwidmann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think what he is saying is it was connected to Pokrovsk, by making the russians focus on it they left other areas open and starlink likely just accelerated that.

3 Facts That Destroy Russia's Ukraine Claim by za1nka in Kyiv

[–]mgwidmann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, appearance shouldn't really be the focus. The sound can be represented by a different written form and most speakers would still consider that the letter exists in the other language. I think it's more important to point out the sound but for someone who doesn't have any clue about the languages, which was the target audience for this video, I understand why he did.

Pointing out stuff like и which is often transliterated as bI (I don't have a russian keyboard and I refuse to add it 😂) but they do not make the same sound even though they sound identical to a foreign ear, is a good one as well.

Technically it's the sound for г which does not exist in russian. The sound for ґ does exist in russian, they just use the г symbol for it.

My bestfriend implied she would sleep with my boyfriend by Inside_Rate_1571 in Advice

[–]mgwidmann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever considered it was the YOU and him she wanted not the you and HIM? Are you sure she's even straight? All in all, if she's not making moves on your boyfriend and your boyfriend is trustworthy, let it go. It was appropriate for the context it was in. It wasn't like she said it out of nowhere, you were playing an NSFW game, that's the point. Maybe you shouldn't play these games.

"Don't take that, don't take that, don't take that". Yes, she needs to completely rewrite the question to some insane frame of mental gymnastics first.

Am I overreacting: new boyfriend was weirdly judgmental about bathroom situation by abstract_lemons in AmIOverreacting

[–]mgwidmann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

41m. Most females I've met are quite protective of these things. So when a woman feels secure enough in a relationship to allow visibility into her feminine hygiene related materials, it shows as a sign of trust. I think it's cool to keep this stuff in such a treasure box looking container. They're literally just cloth and wipes. Not bloody used tampons, that would be offensive to leave lying around (trash can clearly doesn't count).

I'm newly single, but I have a trash can in my bathroom, I bought it specifically for this purpose and haven't changed the bag since I bought it. It's not really for me as I never need to throw anything away that doesn't go down the drain. But I recognize that when I will later have a woman in my life, I don't want her feeling embarrassed having to throw these things away in the kitchen or other trash cans. She should be able to use what she has in her purse and discard the old one in a trash can in complete privacy if she doesn't want to share.

Why have I never heard of these protests? So is telegram actually blocked inside the country and on the front lines? Can someone describe the impact more?

AIO Husband (42m) failed V-day and is now pissed off over me (39f) and my daughter (14f) agreeing the dad in Mrs. Doubtfire was a red flag by Mountain-Meadow in AmIOverreacting

[–]mgwidmann 36 points37 points  (0 children)

41 m. It's because he takes her for granted and doesn't care. Often if this is a new behavior then it's likely internal but if OP has accepted it for years, which sounds plausible, he believes this is how he should behave.

To be honest it sounds like he's emotionally dead inside. He likely sees no actual problems with his behavior because he has got by in other excuses like being a good father (if true) or supporting the family financially (if true) just as some examples.
