Earnest take: I think it’s probably not healthy for the practice of democratic self-government that so many people have developed strong rooting interests in elections in countries they don’t live in.

Bad discourse tbh. Bunch of people saying “I like to make a nice lil variety of meals that make my spouse and family happy within our budget and time constraints even tho it’s hard sometimes” and a bunch of others saying “you and they should simply not care”
Why is this such a difficult thing for women? Nearly, every woman I know (except Mom, who still has a rigid schedule for each night) struggles to think dinner. Not actually MAKE dinner, but think of what to make and this is an incredibly stressful thing for them.

No lil Easter eggs or fun new thoughts in here! Very little fun absurdity since “omg leftovers have histamines” was already eaten by door dash discourse. Just hating on people for liking nice effortful things that they actually *do*. 👎👎

The only other thing is that “ugh gotta go figure out dinner” is probably misinterpreted by a lot of people as “ugh gotta go do this oppressive horrible thing” when it’s more like “ugh gotta get off this call here is my reason” or “gotta do my least favorite chore”

I actually love posts about this sort of thing. “Jan doesn’t want to go because she doesn’t want to leave the baby, Bob just flat dislikes the other couple but no one wants to offend” is the sort of stuff you can wring a lot of sitcom bullshit from!
Why are people so mad at her about this?? A) she’s trying to be objective & asking for perspective And b) she’s got a lot of reason to be wanting to stick close to her baby

Type of guy who writes posts about all his dates they are, of course, all bangers flooding his Notifications with dopamine vs. the girl reading those stories, knowing if she dated him-she could become a story too she with whom he could've loved & spent the rest of his life with

I’m still turning that gd movie over in my head bc Holmes and Fielder and The Actress are extremely compelling
Darkest thing about human personality is that some people are damn near universally *compelling to watch* but not loved or even liked.

Billy is boring. The giant monitor lizard had flair. The babies are babies.

I’m not sure of the claim that *requiring* kids to hug their grandparents or aunties will make them more likely to molested/less likely or able to promptly report abuse but like…it’s probably generally better for adults to be chill about it anyway
I think kids should hug their grandmas but also I think it’s weird for adults to throw fits and guilt kids into hugging them. Yeah hugging grandma is good but kids won’t wanna do it if she’s weird about it you know

I actually don’t think retail/restaurant customer service has gotten much or possibly any worse over the last 20 years or so. I see people on here assert that it has pretty regularly and idk I don’t think that’s true

The tipping expectations have changed which probably contributes to people feeling like the service has gotten worse I guess

people are so hopped up on trying to frame Amanda Seyfried as “morally compromised” that they are inventing a version of the movie where Billy said he was dismissing her input because she made his wife look bad when he actually said it was because she insulted Charlie Kirk lol
I think Nathan Fielder did a really good job with You Can See Everything. Especially in showing how unwilling Amanda Seyfried was to acknowledge her own role in potentially harming another person. He had everyone looking at one another and questioning everyone else’s intentions, while seemingly being completely unwilling to examine their own behavior. I thought Amanda’s resistance to doing that was especially revealing I also obviously think Billy is terrible. I think he’s cruel and exploitative. I’ve seen Elizabeth’s tweets for years and thought they were her. Finding out they’re his was jarring and sad. But as much as I dislike Billy, I think he made a very good point. Why would he care what Amanda thinks? She’s an actress who has profited from portraying his wife as a bizarre and dishonest and manipulative freak to an audience that is largely voyeuristic, incredibly binary in their moral thinking, and seemingly unable to separate fiction from reality I don’t think that Amanda needed to defend Elizabeth or excuse anything she’s done but I do think it’s bizarre how unwilling she seemed to consider that she might have contributed to another person’s suffering

Anna retweeted
“My mother neglected me by making me live in a tent with a man who molested me.” “You didn’t ’live in a tent’ you just stayed there for months at a time ☝️🤓”
Spending a winter in a tent doesn't support "grew up living in a tent" as her estranged mother asserts in the controversial ad

I have a theory that there's 2 paths available to every person. You can live somewhere cold/grey and try to proactively resist the creeping despair in winter or you can live somewhere sunny/hot but you must guard yourself against becoming fucking insane at any given moment

i genuinely resent that this obligatsles me to say anything defense of this pinko but this representation of what he's saying isn't just misleading, it is wholly false; he's saying ``these are your rights if ice comes to your house/stops you''
