I was going to mention how “first world problems” this is, but then noticed it’s in mildly infuriating.

Same thing, basically.

Most people are too lazy or stupid to take the initiative though

Full stop, go fuck yourself.

I once dropped a water bottle out of my backpack, and couldn’t find it when I retraced my hike, but I did start noticing tons of trash everywhere.

So I started keeping a trash bag in my backpack, and filling a small bag every time I hike.

I may not have found my bottle, but I’ll make sure I clean up more than I left every time I’m out.

I’ve had plenty of times where I get home and empty my pockets of the trash I accumulated with no can nearby.

And if I try to put something in a can and it falls out, I’m taking it with me because I didn’t succeed in throwing it away.

Shrugging ans saying “well I tried” as you walk away isn’t even trying.

Sweet!

I’ve never been able to get into them, but I’m definitely buying this as a gift for someone.

Yes, that’s why I have no arguments against the “no jobs” part.

ve never been to a rural area of the country, have you?

I’ve lived in them almost exclusively.

Assuming you spend $10 on avocado toast every day, as well as $75 on eating out for every meal, $20 for Starbucks, and ALSO assuming you have $150 worth of monthly subscriptions:

It will take you 25 years to save one million dollars. That’s assuming you never get sick, never lose a job, never need to buy a car or have major repairs, or basically any kind of surprise expense or setback that could wipe out savings.

To be the richest person on earth, you would need to save that money every year for over 6 MILLION YEARS

If it’s boring, then so are you. There’s plenty to do in the country, just not much that involves “going to crowded places and spending ridiculous amounts of money on things that would be 20x cheaper at a regular store”

No argument on anything else though…

dine on the flesh of Christians

Hard pass.

Too much fat, I’m on a diet.

“I promise I won’t get political”

two drinks later

“COME OUT YEH BLACK AN’ TAN”

“Okay, cool. Family knows when to drop a subject. Good luck!”

Hey, I’ll have you know I only have one alt!

… Don’t tell Keiko, but it’s for porn.

I see no problem with blocking users for their belief that I should be slaughtered over the sin of checks comments being born in the USA.

And I see no problem blocking instances where they gather.

Hey that sounds like studying linguistics to me! ^{Pun mildly intended.}

That’s gotta be a bit of a gut punch though…

I’ve only ever met a few native Germans in person, and understand just enough to get to the bathroom, so I don’t know if I just misheard, or they’re one of the few people who do say it that way.

I’ll take any native German’s word on their own language though! Lol or even anyone who’s studied.

I’ve internally been saying “eesh eel”

… which now seems like calling it "me earl’

Cuba, the “dirty evil communist” country that only struggles because of a bullshit embargo placed on them by people who are dead and whose opinions are irrelevant to modern day?

The Cuba that churns out so many doctors, they basically have to leave the country to find work because they have so many doctors already?

The Cuba that, if I bothered to look at quality of life statistics would almost all point to “Cuba is a generally well run country but suffers because of trade bullshit”?

That Cuba?

Or you could try bringing up occupied Palestine “Israel”, I’m sure you’ll have your “gotcha” moment there!

Lmao calling me a liberal is an insult

Miles Obrien understands the importance of a union, and the importance of the people who actually make the wealth for the owning class.

Miles Obrien also understands that fascists should be stopped at all fronts, including your precious dictator states.

I’m sure you’ll use your spotlight to throw around more school yard insults about people’s intelligence or political leanings, or post gifs or emoji, but all you’ll get from me is pity.

My wife has issues involving texture and trauma specifically at the dentist office, so I usually accompany her to appointments. So far no office has had an issue.

One time though, she needed to have those spacers put in her teeth, and she told the dentist and hygienist that she would throw up if it was in too long, and that she WILL bite down if there’s sharp pain, so use slightly more local anesthetic than normal and wait a little longer for it to work well.

They rushed.

She bit.

The moment I heard the cry of pain and felt my wife squeezing my hand super hard, I already knew what happened without having to look around anything.

I just said “And that’s why we told you to wait longer. You were warned.”

They were Super chill about everything, all things considered. I know I’d be pissed if I got bit by someone while doing my job, even if that job was literally their teeth.
