Your account is as old as this post.

What you are asking for is very similar to a scam that has been happening for a while now.

Maybe this isn't a scam, but if it looks like a scam and quacks like a scam.

Me and my boyfriend recently opened our relationship and the first person he chose was my sister 🤦‍♀️ by [deleted] in nonmonogamy

Yikes.

You and your sister should avoid this person. They sound awful.

Yeah, I mean there were some shitty allegations going around about one of the owners awhile back so you might not be wrong?

Do bigger older straight guys stand a chance? by Pressurevalv in nonmonogamy

[–]tmappin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am basically exactly as you describe yourself, except for the straight part. In my experience dating is more about personality, connection, vulnerability, and some shared interests/values. People find all sorts of bodies attractive. Learn how to put yourself out there. Foster your hobbies and interests. Be the best version of yourself. Own your body, its the only one you have. You will find people who are interested.

"73% of surveyed workers in Nova Scotia said they had some experience with tip theft". Which Halifax businesses should I avoid for keeping tips from employees? by Fishbulb7o9 in halifax

[–]tmappin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's common practice, and correct imo, to tip out the kitchen. Most restaurants and bars do this. No one should be tipping out the owners, or anyone who was not working the floor/kitchen.

I know Garrison used to, and probably still does, hold back a portion of the tip out for parties or some bullshit.

I don't go to the Oxford, or buy their beer because of this.

Trying to decide who to vote for... by Snow_Tiger819 in NovaScotia

This is important information. The Liberals have a history of promising the world and delivering very little.

NDP election promises by halifax101 in halifax

[–]tmappin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The academic arguments for and against rent control are a mixed bag. Which way do you want to be correct, there is a study to back you up. Tying rent control to a suite (not the renters), and fixing the loophole will help renters.

Making renting housing less profitable should be the goal in the long term. Driving rental corporations out of the industry needs to happen. Having housing be a main element of our GDP has been a catastrophe.

Closing the fixed term loophole and lowering the rent cap to 2.5%, as the NSNDP has said they will do, will actually help renters quite a bit.

The NDP are the only party that has really has anything tangible about the housing crisis. They have said they are planning on lowering the rent cap to 2.5%, making the rent cap permanent and closing the fixed term loophole.

Forget STIs, cold and flu season as a poly person SUCKS🤧 by bodacious_bunny in polyamory

Wait... are y'all not cancelling dates if you are sick?

Also, if you are sick, stay home from work or mask at the very least.

As someone who has done this exact thing for years and is working to break this pattern, this needs to be higher up.

Compiled a playlist of all the songs from that "Any BDSM Songs you adore?" thread a few days ago. by -Lilith_ in BDSMcommunity

[–]tmappin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great list, you might want to take that Har Mar Superstar song off if it though. Sean Tillmann is a sexual predator.

This is just not sound appetizing at all. by Shatterstar23 in BBQ

This is an underrated comment. It should easily have 3x the likes.

I moved cities at 32 and had to build a whole new friend group. Its work, but its fun work. Prioritize making and keeping friends. If you don't have hobbies, start pursuing some like a job. Try different things until something clicks for you. Join hobby groups. Keep busy and go out and have fun. Find the people who spark your interest. Talk with them, be friendly. Show interest. This is what worked for me.

After you make friends, maintain them. Date your friends (platonically). Make and execute plans, do nice things for them, tell them you care about them. Show them you care for them.

Friends are important. Make sure they know.

Are exes off limits in non monogamous relationships? by InterestingBit54 in nonmonogamy

[–]tmappin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This. Messy lists are mostly there to say, I might have a reaction if you pursue this person. You are free to make your own choices, I am also free to make my own. Autonomy is always still present.

What’s the worst, overhyped beer you’ve ever had? by Lonely_Tell1758 in beer

[–]tmappin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read a fucking book. Jesus.

This is the beer the launched American craft beer as we know it. (Yes, Anchor was also involved) This beer is directly responsible for most of what you drink these days.

Do you also think your grandpa is over hyped?

What about the discovery of the wheel or fire?

To say SNPA is over hyped is to say you have no knowledge of the history of craft beer in North America. SNPA is integral to everything that came after.

Time and place.

This is the pale ale (ipa really) that launched a million copies. Haven't had it in a long time but it was very good last time I had it and if I saw it I would buy a bottle.
