  • Epstein Scandal Leaves Some Young Trump Voters Feeling Betrayed

  • Fucking can't stand these "edgy" comedians. These Temu Anthony Jeselniks. They think edgy means going against the norm, so if everyone hates something, they love it. And they make it their whole identity.

    "Edgy" fucks simply see a woman as a lead in a action movie, and dismiss the movie. They see people hate Trump, and they go, "I love Trump!"

  • Pretty much.

    The amount of Hispanics who see Democrats not helping them directly and then vote Republican. Then they watch their family members get rounded up, hear their Republican senators lie to them, and then vote Republican again.

  • I hit a bunch of those milestones and honestly, it kept getting better and better.

    Graduate HS - felt like an adult.

    Finished college - felt independence.

    Became 30 - feeling like I control my life.

    Became a dad - realizing how small I am in this big world.

    There's a lot of hiccups and all. But it continues to get better and better for me.

  • For the past decade, senator Rafael Edward Cruz, who immigrated here from Canada and who goes by a different name for some reason, continues to be the most shittiest human being to everybody. From dead naming people, to blocking social services, to fleeing Texas when it got too cold, texas being the state he immigrated to.

    Yet people keep voting for him.

  • CBS is run by out of touch maga boomers who want Colbert off the air anyways. They want to turn CBS into Fox News, and these are just the growing pains.

  • In many cities in America, private companies threaten cities demanding that they get paid to expand, or else they'll leave.

    Comcast demanded they get city investments to expand wifi to more of the city and even promised free wifi to public places. And after millions of city dollars given, they said, "nevermind".

  • Haha I don't know about that!

    It was ingrained into me to never share anything until Facebook normalized it. I always feared some nutcase would come to my house because I made a solid yo momma joke that broke him.

    I did a/s/l in a vague way, telling people I was 1-2 years older than I was, which was required to meet hotties also in the AOL chatz.

  • It feels a lot more organic. Once in a while, I get into a heated argument where we go back and forth.

    But it doesn't feel like I'm arguing with an obvious troll. Just two people with disagreements.

    On Reddit, argue with someone and they go, "Yeah will you're a cuck and you post on lolcats" and then you find out theyre a Indian teen or a bot.

  • A good negotiation is about making sure both parties feel satisfied by the end of the transaction!

    If the other side was already combative, then that's a negotiation you should walk away from.

  • This is more relationship advice. Ask your partner to have a day of sex where you just communicate what you want with words.

    The first year of the relationship, I was using tricks I saw in porn. I was doing things to my wife that she didn't care for, but didn't say anything because she thought I enjoyed doing it. We later talked and the next session, we just followed what the other person wanted. And now it's part of our tricks.

    Next time your jabbing your sausage into her armpit, ask her if she's liking what you're serving.

  • I took a community college class on business negotiations. I learned about BATNA (best alternative to a negotiated agreement) and it's been extremely helpful as a tool for negotiations. It's setting a baseline and reduces any emotional toll.

    Tl;Dr: define your BATNA before any negotiation. For example: say you know your salary industry standard is at $80k. You receive an offer for $70k, politely see if they have wiggle room for more, based on industry standard. If they come back with $75k, your plan is clear. In this negotiation, your BATNA is to walk away - no hard feelings.

    When I sold my car, I set my BATNA to $9k, and put it for sale at $11k. The guy immediately tried to haggle and offered $10k. I shook his hand immediately and sold it.

    It doesn't have to be a hard number either. Like comparing benefits or perks.

  • I call it "power saving" mode. I use public transportation to prepare myself for what drama will occur at work.

    One time, someone asked me a question on the bus. Something like: "Where is Main Street?" And my brain didn't work because I don't divert power to my thinking brain while riding. I just remember pulling out my phone, clicking the map button, then showing him where it might be?

    Guy was upset that I was one of "those guys" but I don't know what you want from me.

  • I contribute to open source by helping to write documentation. I'm not a coder. I work in marketing and data science.

    I have seen open-source people fold for little reasons. Like a small sum of money, to false promises, to minor threats like legalese BS or threatening takedown. I heard of one project that took down everything the moment a small business sent them an email warning about trademark infringement. They didn't even contest it - they just disappeared to avoid even a bit of a lawsuit.

    If you follow local news in the US, there have been a lot of politicians (mostly democratic ones) who have sued because of harassment campaigns and even death threats to their family and friends.

    My take is that most people who volunteer aren't going to risk their livelihood. Nor should we expect them to.

    The best they can do is build enough layers of obscurity, trust that their providers will also protect their identity, and keep themselves safe.
