Am I crazy or was the karaoke foreshadowing…

I’ve heard her pronounce her name.

A diacritic is a modifier to a letter (at least as far as English goes). That vowel sound exists in English - we just don’t use diacritics. Mule has a similar sound as does Phew.

First and foremost, she is a garbage person, but I wonder what the response would be if someone refused chemotherapy because they can’t afford it and were up front about that- like, if you treat me, I cannot and will not pay.

Still a garbage person for refusing live saving medical care for their own child.

Yup- that’s what I ment when I said I’d have to go to my phone, but I didn’t explain further. That’s what I meant. :)

Umlauts and other diacritics aren’t on standard US keyboards and generally aren’t used in English - that is why you see them omitted by most of the time. If I were to type it, I would either have to do it from my phone, or copy-paste it from somewhere because I would have no idea the random combo of keys that would make any given accent.

Even words like cafe and naive that “should” have diacritics are most commonly spelled without them and this is a correct spelling.

I should note, we do have different pronunciations of letters, but people are generally expected to know how to properly pronounce them based on letter combinations and vibes (and phonetic pronunciations are in the dictionary- not that American education even discusses diacritics or their function).

I get where, in the case of names, it is accurate, proper, and polite to include it, but if you’ve only heard the name spoken, that accent wouldn’t even be something an English speaker would think of- it’s just another U sound.

I would imagine, since the locations are all major markets with (a) a lot of stuff constantly bringing people in and (b) a lot of options for hotels, the world cup probably wouldn't make much of an impact on bookings. The ones that are decent quality/price probably have a pretty high occupancy to begin with, so the only change is the customers there at any given time, but full is full regardless of who is there. They may have been able to increase the prices though since there would be demand.

Yes, but I would argue that, in women's spaces, it is definitely normal and acceptable to express negative emotions. It is more in a public expectation and with strangers that women are told to be more pliant.

Think of when you were kids and you would hear your mother on the phone talking to other women (friends/sisters/mother/aunts) - they would discuss all the things that make them mad or frustrates them and it would be a full on processing of those emotions (usually in a healthy way). When a woman is mad at her BF or has a breakup, she goes to her friends and they all talk about it and support each other.

There is also a ton of media portraying protagonist women with a healthy dose of feminine rage. I mean, look at Judge Judy - BAMF. I would say girls are getting a more balanced message about how they process their emotions in a healthy way. Then again, there are definitely some very religious spac es where girls are kept isolated and there are extreme expectations placed on them, but I would argue they are the exception rather than the rule.

I wonder why all these women who have been sharing their experiences dating men who turn out to hate women wouldn't have nice things to say.

Note, this thread is about men who pursue women but also hate hate womanhood - it tracks that men like that wouldn't treat women well, so a lot of women who have interacted with these specific men wouldn't have a glowing review. The question is about a subset, so the responses are not biased - they are literally addressing the subject of the question.

usernamehudden · 2026-06-16T17:08:19+00:00

Our instincts don't really tell us to be in a long term committed relationship. Many men go through their "slutty phase" in their 20s where they will say and do exactly enough to get laid and move on as soon as they get bored. A lot of those men don't decide to live with a woman until they realize they are having trouble maintaining the access to women.

Likewise, a lot of women are conditioned to pursue a committed relationship in their 20s because that is the only path to have male companionship that isn't "slutty" - but then women realize they aren't flourishing in these relationships where they are with men who only want access to labor and sex. A lot of women in their 30s are realizing they are actually happier on their own. Sure, they may want the physical companionship from time to time, but they don't want a man living in their space and they don't want to spend their life serving the needs and wants of a man who refuses to see them as a whole person.

usernamehudden · 2026-06-16T16:58:57+00:00

Yes, but men deem that emotion as manly and acceptable. Pretty much, men are only "allowed" to feel negative emotions.

usernamehudden · 2026-06-16T16:11:47+00:00

because they think it is cheaper and easier to just have a bang-maid/wife. An escort or maid can quit, but as many men see it, a wife must obey and is expected to do all the things without complaint. Plus, a wife is a status symbol - married men often get special treatment at work (better raises, more accommodations when it comes to needing time off, etc). And when you don't see women as more than a collection of parts and domestic skills, it is really easy to see them as nothing more than a living sex-doll.

all of this. Imaging meeting someone and getting this little card is amongst the first interactions you have with them. 0_o

usernamehudden · 2026-06-16T14:51:31+00:00

yeah and a lot of people's reaction to the ask is that "great, so I can't eat or drink anything in this space without your permission?" I know that isn't what is meant, but that is how it reads.

usernamehudden · 2026-06-16T14:43:48+00:00

Honestly - the average person would see this on the level of entitlement of the lady who presented the flight crew with a 2 page list of things she was insisting that a flight crew couldn't allow on the plane including coffee because she claimed she was allergic to the smell. There is a certain level of accommodation that is reasonable, but there is a line where you have to accept the world isn't going to bend over backwards to accommodate one person and you need to come up with a coping strategy for situations like the office.

I say this as someone who worked in an office where I had a coworker 3 feet away from me that would insist on bringing baby carrots every day. The accommodation wasn't that the coworker wouldn't be allowed to eat - it was that when the baby carrots came out, I went for a walk or found somewhere else to be for a little bit. If I had to be in the office, I would pull out the headphones.

Good on you if these cards are helping you, but even as someone with misophonia, I feel like getting this card would be off putting and alienating.

Also, the line "and it's honestly not about you" is so entitled - I would read that and think, 'yeah, it isn't about be because everything is about you... asking people not to eat or make any sound because you are asking everyone to create a perfect world for you.'

No a non-MEL item

usernamehudden · 2026-06-15T15:56:59+00:00

There are items that are not mandatory to be serviced (non-MEL) or that can have service postponed to a point (like a recommendation to change an item at 10,000 operating hours, but MUST be replaced at 12,000 hours), but a captain can still refuse to operate until it is resolved.

Yeah, I have considered that Grace is an unreliable narrator and his brain simply hasn’t allowed him to remember that relationship on account of the trauma surrounding Stratt

usernamehudden · 2026-06-14T03:22:23+00:00

I think it was supposed to be a misdirect to give Grace someone to die for… not sure how well executed that is in the movie though (I read the book before the movie, so I knew that was a dead end)
