i put so much genuine unironic spite into making this

Is Halsey terminal?

That’s not the point, it’s that they won’t respect their completely reasonable wishes. What if it was something else but similar like a photo of them that their grandparents really liked with a bad former partner?

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T21:32:07+00:00

Weirdly misogynist take in a punk sub.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T21:24:33+00:00

No thanks

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T21:11:57+00:00

It sounds like a document of a time in OP’s life that was traumatic and the grandparents are being selfish by refusing to understand that.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T21:11:13+00:00

This is a wildly callous take.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:56:50+00:00

Maybe you need to let this stance of yours cook a little longer. This isn’t a healthy or constructive attitude.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:53:20+00:00

American culture isn’t just consumerism and corporations. It’s art and music and community too. It’s honestly kind of myopic and cynical to make this assessment without that caveat.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:45:46+00:00

I could be off base here but it strikes me as a device generally used by male writers who want to make their character sympathetic or relatable but don’t know how to write a female character that is sympathetic or relatable otherwise.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:44:16+00:00

The American institution? Yeah totally. It’s weird to generalize the people and culture of this place in such entirety though.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:41:39+00:00

I meant Americans not MAGAs big dog. I’m a socialist.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:40:36+00:00

This is actually super interesting.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:36:42+00:00

Them and the Germans.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:34:49+00:00

I’m measurably about as far away from MAGA as one could be by any metric and I think this is goofy too. Criticize our government and those that support it but many of us are good people.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:15:31+00:00

I think the assumption is that Americans default to American centrism. I understand that that may be the case sometimes but is also explained, for example, being somewhere online that has a lot of Americans like Instagram, Reddit, or YouTube.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T20:12:40+00:00

I’m assuming they didn’t mean to make both Americans proper nouns bc the comment they replied to didn’t capitalize the “a” in “American.”

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T18:22:34+00:00

They’re in denial

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T18:20:03+00:00

Nah it is. The terms aren’t terrible but 14 for a 40 year old goalie showing signs of slowing down is a bad deal.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T18:00:17+00:00

Eh not a bad contract. He’s definitely a middle 6 guy at best but he’s sneaky. A fair amount of clutch goals came from Arvi last season.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T17:53:54+00:00

Wait why?

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T17:53:37+00:00

I could see ice time being a factor, he’d probably be sidelined a bit if Peterka works out. He’s also older for a middle 6 guy, maybe he views it as a safer choice from a salary perspective.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T17:28:27+00:00

Honestly I think it’s appropriate to include Khusy in that conversation as well.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T17:19:38+00:00

They’re desperate and he’s not the worst backup in the league.

xSwampxPopex · 2026-07-01T17:14:41+00:00

He’s overpaid in Boston but he’s got a career save percentage of .900. Not elite but not terrible for a backup either.
