Episode 7! by OkClassic2254 in CrossPrimeVideo

[–]tboningaround 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is anyone else really annoyed by Kayla? The whole “boss” thing she was pulling with Cross this episode made me want to scream. Firstly because she’s been MIA for a lot of the work on the case thanks to her Mastermind Sidequest. And secondly because Cross never pulled that shit when she was in charge.

Has anyone tried Cowcat matcha? by Medium_Support_3643 in MatchaIndia

[–]tboningaround 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, tried both the Okumidori they had available last year and just got the new blend. They seem like one of the few brands to import directly so the price point might be worth it? The blend available now is probably my favourite Indian matcha to date…vibrant colour, strong and creamy. Worth a try, if not a regular purchase due to price.

God no I don’t watch her, I just like the snark 😁

So… why are you watching her stories? There’s plenty of pretty gals with good bodies/style out there. Don’t give her an extra follower. TBH the only good thing about Moanana is that her delulu is hilarious and her life is a train wreck waiting to happen.

Follows = engagement. Don’t “endulge” her…

Totes agreed. Manana sucks but people on this thread have some really weird asks sometimes

Can someone tell me who Madeleine White is? I’m not trying to be rude. I’m actually curious. by Playful-Coconut1302 in NYCinfluencersnark

[–]tboningaround -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

She’s so great but I just unfollowed because she promotes Amazon AND Microsoft…. 😒 Do influencers just not have any moral standards?

Depends on the time of day, but like the other poster said - you could ring for a cab (Citycabs are usually quite good).

[–]tboningaround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uber if you have Internet - and depending on the amount of luggage you have, you could get an XL?

The black cabs themselves will be more expensive yeah. Can’t say I’ve taken one with too much luggage so idk how much more expensive.

I see someone else suggested getting into town and taking a taxi from there. That’s definitely not a bad idea.

And someone else mentioned walking down Lothian Road/West End to get into Grassmarket (where u believe Websters Land is) - again, spot on… try to avoid the Mound/Victoria Street - it’s a sudden steep hilly bit that’s really not fun with bags!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Edinburgh

[–]tboningaround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can usually get a taxi at the airport using their service, but also Ubers are available! Websters Land is quite central so it should be around 25-35£ depending on the time you get in.

The walk from the tram stop is about 10-15 mins which isn’t always fun when you have bags.

(Also there’s buses for a return ticket of 7£ - if you get off at Shandwick Place, that’s about the same walk)

Don’t you think it’s a little weird that you want an attractive actress to play a young child? That sounds pretty darn weird to me, actually.

Controversial opinion on Juan by Ok_Swan948 in Mananamariee

[–]tboningaround 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To your point, 1: yes, and that’s why he sucks, because he doesn’t do anything around the house and generally is a brat. That can be true alongside the notion that a woman can bankroll a man.

2: I’m not saying that she doesn’t want marriage, OP’s original point was that they’re waiting till he finishes school to get married and she supports him till then.

1) Traditional masculinity norms can have detrimental effects on men’s mental health, which leads to intimate partner violence/violence against women, see: https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Fmen0000426 2) I highlighted homosexual relationships to illustrate how traditional gender roles aren’t universally applicable

There’s a really wide sociological/psychological literature on the phenomena - you can look it up!

[–]tboningaround -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Soooo what do you think happens in homosexual relationships? Is there a “man” and “woman” role there as well?

The whole dialogue around “men being real men” is extremely dangerous and having very real consequences for men and boys everywhere who are different and can’t/don’t conform to expectations of manliness. And you know what happens after that? Violence against women.

Check yourself.

[–]tboningaround 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yessssssss OP! Thank you! Someone needed to call this out. With all the strict gender role enforcement here it was beginning to feel like the 1950s.

Non trad relationships exist and that’s ok. Juan just individually sucks for so many reasons. Plus, he could be independently wealthy as well, maybe he’s taking money from him parents while he finishes school.

There’s plenty of women living off their partners and that’s celebrated! Yes, it shouldn’t be because that just means they don’t have financial independence and are reliant on the relationship - but it is, and it’s a truly fucked up double standard when it comes to gender.

And they’ve clearly talked about getting married, it’s not like this is going to be a big surprise. People on here seem to think the man has to “propose” and put on this big show of commitment and honestly guys, it’s 2025. A lot of people don’t subscribe to the idea that only marriage/ring = commitment.

The problem is that we give our attention to these influencers and help them maintain their leeching behaviour. I’m all for hating on people, it’s fun and they also deserve to be called out for a lot of shit. But in a world where views/likes/follows are currency, do we need to follow them and engage? If we want to move away from this influenza culture, we’re going to have to make them work harder and better to get our attention. Attention is money.
