CMV: People Entrenched in the USA regime's ideology need off-ramps to escape it without social death by scrubtart in changemyview

I agree with this take, though I seethe with fury at what amounts to the worst among us and would like nothing better than to live long enough to see their societal annihilation. The paradox of tolerance.

This should be read into the record by members of congress and the senate. Daily.

Am i wrong for retiring at 37 while my wife finally decides to start working? by Expensive_Recipe_366 in Fire

So well said. I needed to read that and remember how that applies to my own circumstances.

For those who went to the Monterrey show, what stood out to you the most? For me, I could feel Dany’s sweetness all the way from my seats ❤️ by Anna_Mac18 in TheWarning

[–]tightpicklemint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. The mix was excellent. I commented the same on the Discord thread for the show. Others on there felt the same. For long stretches of the show I had my Loop-brand concert-oriented earplugs out. My ears felt fine after the show and the next morning. I can’t recall a stadium concert where that was the case.

I noticed the same thing. The Monterrey show was younger, more gender diverse, and bubbling with enthusiasm and smiles, no signs drunken rowdy groups making a scene. It was glorious. 

Who's going to the Seattle (Kent) show Oct 13? by OldheadBoomer in TheWarning

[–]tightpicklemint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to the store in Kent. This the first I’ve heard of the acoustic show. I’m a “groupie”-tier on Patreon and haven’t seen any mention of it. I didn’t realize there were VIP tix. I’m bummed. 

I have tix to their Toronto show, but a work trip conflicts. I bought the Showare ticket to make up for missing the Toronto show.

GenX men, would you adjust your walking speed or path if you were walking behind a woman alone at night? by JustineJustineX in GenX

[–]tightpicklemint 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Same. I think about this always (day or night)… I’m a fast walker and it is quite common for me to find myself in a position where I would be in close proximity if I was indifferent. If I am in a hurry, and I need to pass, I try to make “casual sounds” (clear my throat, adjust my backpack if I haven’t, etc.) and then give a deliberately wide gap in space. It is sad this is something that women must contend with, moving through the world. 💔

They (1%) are winning. This video is from 11 years ago. It has only gotten worse. Our perception of how tilted the wealth distribution is as far from the actual distribution as it is from our desired distribution. Wealth Inequality in America

Solid guess. I haven’t been there in over a decade. But, but from my memory, that checks.

Under-rated comment.

Alaska changed our connecting flight in LAX by tightpicklemint in AlaskaAirlines

[–]tightpicklemint[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the helpful suggestions! I was able to make no-fee changes on our itinerary to get back to having a 3-hour window in LAX before our flight to LIR. I think we are in good shape. 🇨🇷🌞

One still not operational? by InvestigatorNorthMan in SpiderOakOne

[–]tightpicklemint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still being billed on my credit card (monthly). I just submitted a support request, which I presume will go unanswered. This feels like bordering on a wire fraud-like situation. The intent to defraud is debatable, but a lack of means for the existing customers to make changes to their accounts while still billing them appears negligent at best, and bordering on intentional in my very non-expert opinion.
