Exactly. I was going to reply to the original commenter saying, like, you know he’s still got 3 other trials actively in progress right? (Well, 1 of those is indefinitely halted, but still).

So your advice is: 1) don’t pay it and 2) work and live in a different country. Super reasonable! /s

Men can criticize modern dating. Any gender can. I’m not saying you can’t. The final frame in this comic portrays strong anger at rejection which is never okay. Sadness? Sure. Disappointment? Understandable. Anger? No. The anger signifies that you feel that the other person owes you something.

I mean, sure, the girl in the comic is super insulting. But obviously what she said wouldn’t happen in real life. Overall, the comic just feels like a mythical scenario (which is completely cool for a comic) that’s embracing toxic nice guy mentality (less cool).

At the risk of overanalyzing a web comic, I feel it’s worth cautioning that this screams toxic nice guy syndrome.

Bloody damn pixie

Why? You’re disappointed with the explanation? Disagree with it? Or you don’t like its somewhat informal tone? I thought it was well written, enjoyed the information / humor, and can respect the explanation.

Calculating the total number of hours that one sees their parents, and then dividing that total by 24 to determine the “number of days” they’ve spent with their parents is misleading and nonsensical. You yourself spend nearly every other day with your folks and, through your math, you’ve calculated that you’re “really only” spending 5% (1.6 years / 30 years) of your time with them. This reminds me of (though is not nearly as bad as) this “A Day Off” anti-time-off propaganda.

Edit: Grammar

The meat industry contributes to a significant amount of global carbon emissions (11-17% of global carbon emissions according to a few sources). The meat industry has been the primary reason for the Amazon rainforest’s deforestation. Industrial cow, pig, and fish farms are quite destructive/poisonous in whatever environment they’re in. The large amount of antibiotic misuse in meat farms is leading to super resistant bacteria. In multiple studies, a healthy vegan diet is has been shown to be better in multiple health metrics when compared to a healthy omnivore diet. And, finally, the meat industry is typically terrible for the life of animals involved, especially the large meat farms.

Overall, prolifers typically supporting the political parties that typically support the meat industry does suggest hypocrisy. I imagine that’s what the original commenter was suggesting.

White Lotus is what first came to mind for me. Left me on the edge of my seat. And during every episode I always felt like I KNEW what had / will happen, only to be debunked and on a completely new theory by the end of the next episode. Loved it and an looking forward to season 3.

Your texts are formatted much better than most. I’m not sure what concern you have with the spacing (what, is there an extra space after the pluses? Meh). Double texting is very common. You’re good, 8.

Not sure if it’d help, but you could stick a buuunch of camping, hiking, outdoors, etc. stickers on your van. Try to turn its image from a “ghetto” van to a “hippy / outdoor enthusiast” van. I imagine you can order large sticker packs online for very cheap.

Are you trying to making a connection between a bad / weak man and being gay? If so, that’s a shitty, inappropriate attempt at a joke.

In several of the parks, yes! Hell, getting drunk off of “drinks from around the world” at Walt Disney World’s EPCOT is a popular theme for adult guests nowadays. However, I’ll mention that Disneyland is still quite restrictive (though their neighboring park, California Adventure, is not and fully embrace alcohol sales).

Several of the global Disney parks besides California Adventure sell alcohol. Even in the original park, Disneyland, which has long had a nearly total ban on alcohol has relented and has started selling booze in limited venues (most notably, the Blue Bayou restaurant, which is a fantastic restaurant btw). Money talks, and booze is pretty good money.

Actually about 7% of those that have tried it are still alive and well! 😀 (Our current global population represents about 7% of all humans that have ever lived)

You’d 100% be selling overpriced alcohol in an adult-centric theme park. If Six Flags and even Disney have figure out how to do it safely (and very profitably, I’m sure), so can other theme parks.

This fraud has been known about and even covered fairly well by some news outlets. For example, check out the CNN special report, Trumping Democracy An American Coup, for a lot of details surrounding it and other aspects of Trump’s attempts to retain power. It’s been a while since I saw it, but if I recall correctly, a really cool thing about this report is that all/most of the politicians interviewed are Republicans. i.e. It’s not just a Democrat-spun narrative.

Yes, there is NO limit on the number of bankruptcies you can file for. However, there are time limits between filling dates. Here’s what a Forbes article mentions about it:

Just as there are different types of bankruptcy, there are different rules for how often you can file bankruptcy. The waiting period to file another bankruptcy case generally ranges from two to eight years, depending on the type of bankruptcy. In some situations, there may be no waiting period.

However, good luck getting creditors for years after filing for a bankruptcy. I imagine very few will trust you / loan you money, except for the most predatory (i.e. loan sharks). And if you did go with a predatory source, a future bankruptcy may not help you discharge the debt given predatory sources commonly operate outside of the law.

There’s a biiiig difference between a husky pup vs a (poorly trained, somewhat dangerous) 4 year old husky. There’s also a big difference between buying from a breeder vs buying from a random person from an online marketplace. The price you mentioned seems accurate for a husky pup from an established breeder. A 4 year old husky maybe could be sold for a few hundred on an online marketplace. One that is described as poorly trained likely would be hard to sell for $100.
