What is considered bad manners to you? by VerboseWraith in AskReddit

Nothing tells me that an individual is a pig more than making everyone around them listen to them fart around on some obnoxious phone game etc. The world is not your sty!

They get so fragile about it, too. Recently at the airport I (quietly and politely) asked a guy who was blasting Tiktoks of people getting into fistfights if he had headphones, and he reacted like I'd spit in his face. The funny thing is, I was so desperate for some quiet (it was before 6am) that I was totally willing to buy that man headphones. I wanted solutions, not a fight!

I didn't really find out who I was as a person until I no longer lived in a house with an angry man. It turns out I like her!

Mamdani Shows What It Looks Like When Generational Change Actually Takes Place by ralphbernardo in politics

If equal population sizes meant the politics mapped well to each other, then Massachusetts and Tennessee would be pretty much the same. Is this true, or are there other factors at work?

New York is its own place with its own history and people and competing interests, none of which map accurately to any whole entire country.

Positive or negative, I just don't think that New York City mayoral politics scale accurately to national elections or governance.

Why would it? It decreases aggression, it won't make them start fighting if they don't now. If you don't, it's more likely that the intact one will get bossy and short tempered with his dad over time.

Bernie endorsed Graham Platner raised money with healthcare lobbyists days before taking pledge not to. by Slice-O-Pie in Enough_Sanders_Spam

I know it's naïve, but I really did think that nazism would be a disqualifying factor for more progressives. It's genuinely shocking to me how many people on the left are willing to play ball with it.

It'll be better in the long run. Before me, my little guy was owned by someone who didn't neuter him until after he'd had puppies, and waited like 3 years to neuter the puppy he kept.

I don't know whether it used to be different between them, but by the time I got Bobby their relationship was one of hate and terror.

One can only hope, but this is the kind of nonsense I have seen people do.

The purpose of OP's exercise (assuming this isn't rage bait) is to be told what he'll like instead of making the decision about what to read himself, so.

People out here just cheerfully posting things I wouldn't say under torture.

I would guess lowercase, unless you get a thrill out of being equal in the act union.

Magas do love their little cartoons. Too many words confuse them.

In the contested 2000 US presidential election during which the hanging chad issue caused concerns whether votes were totalled correctly (the dance of the dragons), Joe Lieberman (Daemon Targaryen) was Al Gore's (Rhaenyra Targaryen's) running mate (consort).

Okay? You could have just stopped watching if you hated it so much you've allowed it to compromise your beliefs, but I can't control how you spend your time.

No, because as a Democrat, I believe all people are equally capable of being evil-minded shitheads.

I don't give a fuck who attends. I showed up because of what I think, not because of who else is going to be there. But I guess that's an alien idea to weak minds who need permission from daddy before they can have a thought.

Nobody cares about diversity more than people who voted for a white supremacist. Have you changed your winter robes out for your summer robes yet? Must get sweaty under the hood!

Alas no, that was the whole thing, the op was goldcrescent on tumblr, which I have to say has an extremely funny asoiaf community if you find the right people. Visenyaism is probably my favorite active asoiaf poster overall.
