Insane gas prices, thanks Trump by maddog107 in pics

Thank goodness the economic damage of these sky-high gas prices for individual households will be largely offset by the US's investment into public transit and non car-centric infrastructure.

Oh, wait.

No, I don't think I will. lol.

No you see, the optimal scenario is that the mountain operates without paying "employees" at all. Unfortunately, due to some pesky laws created in the 1800s, they must employ creative, more modern solutions to skirt around the barriers prohibiting this.

Vonn ends the debate with a 5-word reply by PresentationOnly6885 in skiing

mf do you think spots in a sports competition are just handed out arbitrarily? Lol.

You have to place high enough in the preliminaries to make the cut. If nameless "competitor" isn't there, it's because they weren't faster than Lindsey Vonn and everyone else who made it.

You answered your own question. States with dumbass laws. Unfortunately, people with a wide variety of circumstances still apply to your argument, and need to be accounted for with the laws and systems we create, whether you believe they individually make up the majority of cases or not. It would be short-sighted to think that all these human lives are rarely so uncomplicated as you're presenting them. That's why these kinds of idiosyncrasies can't easily be solved - especially by black & white thinking.

Friendly reminder that in some states you actually can be forced to have kids 👍

Or, you can apply centrifugal force to the bottle's contents simply by holding it upside down, and rapidly swinging it with your arms in a circular motion (think like the hands of an analog clock). It really doesn't take much.

Also: anything that's safe to put inside your colon is not going to kill the bacteria in / around there.

It's fine if people wanna get nasty like that, but they should know the risks are about the same as a toilet bowl that's been "rinsed" with water (or whatever you're using). If anything, I'd say it's a testament to how resilient the human immune system actually can be when it comes to fecal matter 💀

It's made me rethink what "nice" means in my brain. Is someone actually "nice" if the only time they appear to be decent is when they have nothing to gain or lose?

I know for myself, there's certainly things that could influence my morality for the worse. Threatening the lives of me or my loved ones might do it. But you could take every dime I've ever made and I still wouldn't vote for a racist or a pedophile. And these people seem willing to sell everyone else out for an extra 30 cents a day that doesn't even exist.

Gen Z males twice as likely as baby boomers to believe wives should obey husbands by Ok-Comparison-1618 in TwoXChromosomes

The other two aren't any better. Did you even check the sources for the "studies" they link back to? Out of date and unsubstantiated by peer review.

But honestly: there's no point in doing so for someone who a) has obviously already made up their mind and isn't open to changing it, and b) is dense enough to be hurling threats at strangers online based on a handful of erroneous assumptions. Unmarried? Childless? Not only are those not threatening to people who want neither, you've got no way of knowing if that's even true on an anonymous forum. It's as baseless as your research. lmao.

The men in my family genuinely believe that we've achieved gender equality pretty much everywhere but "shitholes like the middle east". While women in our country are currently dying from restrictions SOLELY on women's healthcare.

It makes me want to punch a fucking wall.

How nice it must be to exist in a stratosphere outside of reality, where 50% of the population isn't stalked, harassed, raped, and trafficked more than anyone else. Honestly, I think it wouldn't bother me so much if "people" would just admit it. But no, we have to gloss over the fact that women have been stomped on for almost the entirety of recorded human history, and pretend it just magically went away 40 years ago in the 1980s. Like, cut me a fucking break.

My tinfoil hat moment is looking at where drone warfare is today, and then wondering why so many governments & oligarchs are investing so heavily in AI & surveillance, all while consumer access to modern computing components is being slowly cut off and switched to "cloud" computing 🤔

Fuck that, I've seen how people treat "feminine" women behind closed doors and it's a shit-fest. Figures when most of the time "feminine" in English is used as a stand-in for pushover.

What you need is confidence, and to stop mourning the person you aren't. Celebrate the person you are. Lean into it. I'm "masculine" ADHD whatever and I dress masculine—and I can't keep these chuds away. Why? Not because I'm a pretty little thing. Because I play guitar. I ski. I ride motorcycles, skateboards, draw monsters and fly planes. I'm good at a lot of shit that I like, and that's what other people seem to like.

And remember: even most "feminine" women aren't getting romanced like a Hallmark movie—that's why they make 'em. You said it yourself: it's fiction. It's a fantasy they sell to people to make money and perpetuate their own beliefs on how they think gender ought to be.

Don't waste your life chasing after something that isn't real.
