Thanks

The short answer is that we haven’t really become any more hateful or cruel, however a VERY vocal minority of Americans have lost their goddamned minds and want to drag the rest of us down with them. Those are the people you’re hearing from and they make the rest of us look awful

When you say that you only find people who are “out of your league” attractive, you’re basically saying that you expect the person you want to date to hold themselves to a higher standard than you are willing to apply towards yourself. Essentially you feel entitled to a partner who will work diligently to be the person you feel you deserve, but you’re not willing to do the same for them.

There are two solutions to this problem: either you can put in the effort to raise yourself to the same standards that you expect from others, or you can lower your expectations.

Stop blaming made up “leagues” for your problems.

It’s a social media site, not a dating site so maybe it’s just what they say? Maybe they just want to meet other female friends? Have you never wanted to hang out with just your guy friends and do guy stuff before?

Maybe they’re just looking to make new friends and don’t want a bunch of thirsty guys hitting on them in their DMs?

Is “dude” actually still considered gendered? I literally call everyone dude

Looking at the mod log it appears you were temporarily banned from the news community for repeatedly violating the community rules. It says the ban will be lifted in 1 day.

And how many boutique niche Indy games made solely for their artistic merit have you played that actually had an easy mode?

Why wouldn’t the developer want as many people as possible to buy the game though?

You know you don’t have to play the easy mode right? You can just change the mode in the settings. Most games default to the standard version anyway.

The only people he cares about being popular with are extreme right wing fanatics and other billionaires who are propping him up. All of these people have a weird “survival of the fittest” fetish so they probably won’t be pushing to help anyone who actually needs it

It’s sort of up in the air right now. He’s made a lot of promises to not cut social security benefits, but the tax cuts he wants to give the rich and his insane tarrifs plan both threaten to deplete funding for social security within a few years. Hopefully nothing bad will happen but benefits definitely aren’t going to get any better.

According to Google you can live in Canada and collect US social security benefits. You will probably have to pay taxes in both countries though, especially if you’re still working. To become a Canadian citizen you have to live there permanently and pay taxes for at least three years before you can even be considered for citizenship and even then it looks like there is a lot of other stuff you have to do

Keep in mind too that social security benefits aren’t that much. Unless you’ve already saved enough to pay off this “cabin or house” up front, then you’ll most likely be paying a mortgage, property taxes, you’ll need money for utilities and groceries, AND you’ll be paying taxes to both the US and Canada. Unless you’re already independently wealthy then you’ll probably have to get either a full time or part time job.

The only way I can see this working the way you’ve described is if you’re already of retirement age and can also collect a pension from a job you already have that could help supplement your social security benefits maybe

I don’t have a 15, but the last time I had an issue with a charging cable just popping out like that it was because some debris was lodged way down in the very bottom of the port. It was a tiny little thing I had to use a needle and flashlight to get out but it was enough that the cable wouldn’t stay plugged in at all anymore

That must have been some seriously bad bottled water

A lot of my old cd collection looks like this now or worse lol

It just seems like Microsoft desperately trying to get anyone to use Edge lol

I wouldn’t be surprised if you clicked “install anyway” and another warning popped up that said “Please just use Edge? Just try it for a little bit? Pretty please? We’ll be your best friend if you do”

No. Pork is delicious. 🐖🥓🤤

If you’re basically living in one or two rooms in an otherwise unoccupied house then the space heater is probably better since you won’t have to deal with the thermostat being in another area.

If you’re going to need heat in different rooms all over the house then I’d say let the central heat do it’s job. You really don’t want to deal with running around opening and closing vents and having to warm up another room every time you need to go in there. It will be a pain in the ass and probably cost a lot more.

As long as you’re not selling the phone afterwards I’d say the only thing stopping you would be the skill and knowledge required to do such a thing and the necessary tools.

Keep in mind most of the parts you’re talking about are to some extent proprietary and specifically designed not to be cross compatible, so that may be a big hurdle

I’m not sure what the point of any of this was. It seemed to serve little purpose.

Have a nice day 🌞
