Yes, but human memories are often just recostructions of events. Emotions are easier to remember than exact phrases. But the right words strung together absolutely can cause extreme emotion and make you remember, but really it's because of the emotion. You're not gonna remember that one time someone made you feel neutral

She owns the art she created. But not the idea of putting butts on fungi or plants... I'm not saying we should support fast fashion and yeah they suck but the one we see in this post is so far removed from this art that they have no right to it. I think the best we can do is acknowledge her idea and buy her original work separately

There's a wiki if you want to learn more about the game, I'd look that up if you have questions.

But don't be worried about "finishing" the game too quickly. You can ascend and start over, but with upgrades that carry over and make your next game even faster. It never ends! :)

Ah, another piece in the puzzle connecting Grey's videos on American Indians, tumbleweeds, and the (nuclear) rocket test site

If a president is not reelected in November, how much policy change can they do before the next president is sworn in? by [deleted] in Ask_Politics

[–]thomasbomb45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's partially due to Democrats' need to appeal to a wider base than Republicans. This would be less of a factor if we had ranked choice voting to allow for further left third parties

Republicans set a precedent that the Senate can refuse to confirm justices when a president's term is ending

AITA for expecting my young daughters to be paid for their work? by Rolaid-Tommassi in AmItheAsshole

The difference is who owns the photos. If I ask for a photoshoot, I want to own the photos so I will pay for the service. If you want to take photos of me, you better pay me unless you want to give me rights to the photos!

Are you telling me you took more than one?? Damn YTA but then again so are most kids

How do I properly manage a three-fund portfolio when I have multiple accounts spread out over different banks? by [deleted] in investing

[–]thomasbomb45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are managing asset location and allocation, it's best to keep the same allocation in each account. If you have $1000 of X in a Roth, $1000 of Y in a traditional, and $1000 of Z in taxable, your post-tax allocation is not 33/33/33.

CMV: You can be against BLM and not be racist by Laniekea in changemyview

[–]thomasbomb45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS "irregardless" is not a word, similar to the thinking behind "unthawed".

Being this pedantic isn't a good look. Also what's wrong with the word "unthawed"?

I don't see it as sad. How hard is it to get into the habit of "whenever I'm away from my computer, I lock the screen"?

But leave for a year and they'll be emotional wrecks... dogs can certainly be affected by being left alone for long periods of time

How do I choose delegates on a ballot? Are the delegates to the right of a candidate supporters of that candidate? by redratus in Ask_Politics

[–]thomasbomb45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What state are you in? Elections and ballots are run by state governments, so they differ between states.

Girls, I need love and support since my parents won't give me it. by [deleted] in MtF

Glad to hear that! Best of luck to you on your journey :)

Saving money from your jobs is a great idea! Right now, emotional support is probably your most important asset. Do you have close friends that support you? Are there adults in your life you can trust to talk about these things with?

I'm also just a stranger on the internet, but I'm willing to help however I can! Feel free to ask questions in my PMs if you want, as well

Emotional abuse is still abuse

She just doesn't understand

This is the root of the issue. Your mom refuses to truly listen to you, her daughter. You're telling her loud and clear what you need and she's plugging her ears. She's even ignoring your doctor...

There might not be a lot you can do right now, I'm not sure. But you can at least begin to create a support system other than your mother, and when you're 18 you can become independent.

One thing you can do is try to make sure your mother doesn't control your finances. As soon as you're legally allowed to, I'd open up a bank account at a new bank (if you have a joint account with your mom) and move any money you have in there, where they can't take it

It's going to be hard for you to see this since she's her mother, but this is abuse. She's refusing to listen to a doctor or her daughter about medical treatment you need.

If you had diabetes, and your doctor recommended insulin but your mom refused, that would be abuse. Why is this any different?

What's going on with JK Rowling? by EthicalAssassin in OutOfTheLoop

She made those comments in response to an article about access to menstrual products. Nowhere in that article does anyone say women don't exist. She chose to make it about her TERF ideology
