If you make memes this is a good place to get an unfried version of this one I guess

It looks like they haven’t sold it, original buyer (some music studio in dubai) owns it

We have a local storefront that’s been closed for years but people (maybe the owner or with permission from since it’s so consistent?) set up multiple chess tables in front of it most days and it’s always wholesome to pass people playing on an otherwise rather depressing city street.

In 6 years my partner and I have paid more in rent for our 1 bedroom (below market rate, bare minimum maintenance) apt than the landlord paid for the entire 16 unit building in 1997.

Zillow estimates about $100 a month in property taxes for the building

I didn’t mention third parties and will not be casting a vote for president at all as I believe the problem is regime wide. That said, 3rd parties aren’t the problem the problem is democrats promised they would vote democrat no matter what and they took your word for it and decided to ignore public opinion and international law and international courts and basic human decency and now you’re complicit in a genocide just like the german people were.

8 yearold me would not have been able to grasp your position and 30 yearold me can’t either. Guess I’m too soft to compromise on ethnic cleansing.

Well my US public school system spent 75% of history class and 25% of English class on the Holocaust so I’m actually feeling really well prepared for this section, the trick is not to go along with genocide if your country is supporting it

The old Chiquita one with a gun on it is more honest

Hmm well the executive decisions on her part are definitely a problem then. Personally in this situation I would want to stabilize expectations by getting at least a rough outline on paper. Sit down with her and say something like “lately I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and trapped in my job—like I have the whole weight of the family on my shoulders etc. I know you’re still (understandably) working through some things and I want to continue to support you and I trust that you will follow through and rejoin the workforce in the next couple months like we discussed but I’m disappointed from having to turn down a job that I would have enjoyed and it would really help my own mental health if we had a bit more of a concrete plan so I can see a light at the end of the tunnel and have a plan in place to let go of this awful job that takes up so much extra time. What do you envision yourself doing? Here’s what I have been thinking about for myself, put together does that feasibly support our family or do we need to massage the plan?

The financial planning has also been getting to me and it would really help me out if we came up with a fixed budget for the next couple months. Your dad’s estate gives our family a chance to establish some lasting financial stability (or kids college or whatever it may be) if we play our card’s right and I don’t want us to squander the opportunity by living above our current household income and regret it later.”

Even if you’re not feeling like a team lately I think it’s important to keep a lot of we’s and us’s in there—the future is something you are planning together.

If you two sat down and agreed to let her take a year to heal I don’t think it’s appropriate or healthy to second guess that partway through. If it’s not financially feasible even with her parent’s estate offsetting the cost some then you’ll need to sit down again and discuss that. If the cost of the concert would make a real difference ofc she should cancel, but if you’re just upset she is not pulling her weight right now despite agreeing to a career break (not uncommon after the death of a parent biological or not). I think you should try to be supportive and trust that more opportunities will come up for you even if it’s not the most efficient route.

It’s just a marketing joke like iHop did a few years ago

If I had to choose between adult and child vibes I’d say this fish leans adult

They call me Dr. Worm, I’m not a real doctor but I am a real worm

3 of the couples I had in mind when I mentioned traditional dating sites used Match.com (between 2015 and 2022 in their mid 20s to mid 30s) and 1 couple each around the same time period/age demographic on specific religion dating sites (catholic chemistry and christian mingle)

I don’t think Anon is considering the set of all possible cute girlfriends or lending them enough agency. I think it’s somewhat reasonable if you’re app dating to assume that people are doing some amount of maximizing cute + interesting or something similar but I think that’s because the apps encourage people to gamify dating.

Anecdotally I’ve seen a ton of…erm…normatively mismatched couples form and find success in other contexts like dive bars, pick up soccer, chatrooms, kink communities, boardgame cafes, more traditional dating sites etc. Again anecdotally these relationships seem to skew (normatively) in the guy’s favor more often than the gal’s as far as looks and personality go despite the fact that complaints like this come more often from men.

Prolapse usually refers to a medical condition where parts that should be inside you come out and the logo being a circle brings to mind rectal prolapse which isn’t a super pleasant association

I don’t disagree with that

I agree that comedy is an area that rarely ages well. If you look at the old post 9/11 HBO comedy spots on MAX they are atrociously racist against middle eastern people to the point where I don’t think they should be available or at least should be labeled history and not comedy.

Nor-cal but close
