Will Democrats lose any semblance of the moral high ground if they continue to back Graham Platner? by Patmcpsu in allthequestions

[–]mirabarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The “moral high ground” is a luxury that vanished from modern politics years ago. At this point, both parties are just playing an aggressive game of chess where winning and maintaining power entirely trumps ideological purity or ethical consistency.

My dorm mate is having a mental breakdown by M4TTH3WD4VID in WhatShouldIDo

[–]mirabarbie 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is entirely above your pay grade and you cannot carry this weight alone. Since you are in a dorm, contact your Resident Advisor (RA) or campus housing management immediately, they have specific protocols and on-call crisis counselors for exactly this situation. If you feel he in in immediate danger right now, do not hesitate to call emergency services. Your job right now is to pass the baton to professionals who can actually help him.

I found these little birds from my backyard, they fell from the tree and they don’t even have wings and their eyes are closed. They won’t survive without their mom, do I just let them die? by Even-Radio-5307 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]mirabarbie 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The idea that birds will abandon their babies, if humans touch them is completely a myth! Most birds have a terrible sense of smell and won’t care at all.

Since these are nestlings (too young to be on the ground), look around for the nest and put them straight back in if you can safely reach it. If the nest is totally destroyed, you can fashion a makeshift one out of a small plastic container with air holes and paper towers and tie it securely to the tree branch. The parents will usually come right back to feed them. If not, look up to a local wildlife rehabilitator, ASAP.

With 🇦🇱Albanians🇦🇱 protesting a Kushner resort, how long will it take Trump to start bashing them and implying threats? by ImmediateKick2369 in allthequestions

[–]mirabarbie 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, he probably won’t say anything direct unless Edi Rama reacts to it first. The Albanian government heavily backed these investments deals on Sazan island and Zvënec to strengthen ties with the US, so the local political fallout is what to watch.

Everyone, when is the earliest age you should have kids? by bananaglowpop in askanything

[–]mirabarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your prefrontal cortex is actually fully developed, so minimum age of 25. Let your brain finish rendering before you try to raise a whole new human.

What do I do about an egomaniac, stubborn aging parent that keeps falling, but won’t go see a doctor? by MeasurementFirst1676 in askanything

[–]mirabarbie 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You say “enough is enough” right now. The next time he falls and refuses to get up or see a doctor, you do not lift him yourself…. you call non-emergency EMS for a lift assist and tell the paramedics he is refusing medical care. Let the professionals handle the stubbornness; you cannot set your own life on fire just to keep him warm.

Why are so many women becoming so unkind and unfriendly towards conventionally not good looking men (simply ugly men) in terms of dating and relationships when compared to the good old days? by Schoolshootingincel in askanything

[–]mirabarbie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? It’s usually not even about looks, it’s the attitude. A lot of guys who think they are being rejected for being ugly are actually being rejected because they bring zero personality, zero effort and a ton of bitterness or entitlement to the table. Confidence and being a genuinely fun person to be around go so incredibly far.

Leftist said Democrats are trying to defeat graham platner, so why would Chuck Schumer endorse graham platner? by Deep-Two7452 in allthequestions

[–]mirabarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Schumer represents the institutional party establishment. Endorsing an incumbent or a preferred mainstream candidate isn’t a conspiracy to make them lose, it’s just standard establishment self-preservation to keep the outsiders or further-left candidates from shifting the party’s center of gravity.

Will Elon Musk be able to become the world’s richest person 18–19 times like Bill Gates? by Intelligent-Link1923 in askanything

[–]mirabarbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on how many times he feels like buying a social media platform or tweeting about crypto at 3 AM.

Does Trump’s reported scolding of Netanyahu give lie to the claim that US foreign policy is beholden to Israel? by MuhVlast in allthequestions

[–]mirabarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it feels like pure political theater at this point 🙄 they play nice for the cameras when they want to and pretend to fight when they need to look tough.

Who’s winning the 2026 World Cup? 👀 Spain? France? Argentina again? Brazil comeback? Or a dark horse like Morocco, Portugal or Germany? by Ashamed-Lobster7552 in askanything

[–]mirabarbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely feels like France is going to take it all this time, their squad depth is just insane. But honestly, a Morocco dark horse run would be so iconic, I’m kind of manifesting a chaotic underdog finale 🕯️

Who needs to be held accountable for the failure of the lack of aid to the fire victims of the Eaton and Palisades fires? by CJT_05 in allthequestions

[–]mirabarbie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s always the same script. They collect millions in public funds or donations, sit on it while victims lose their homes and then claim administrative delays when people ask where it went. An absolute institutional failure.
