I see no issue here. A man can absolutely be ‘cute’ without being any less of a man. Masculinity isn’t about rugged looks, strength, dominance, or any of that shit. It’s about self confidence (not arrogance, just being comfortable being yourself) and giving to others, both of which you seem to do well.

Honestly, I’m surprised you haven’t found a partner to match you yet.

I don’t need to know German to read Meta AI, and agree with your enshittification assessment

Mate, have you seen the shit he has retweeted saying he agrees? A bunch of replacement theory shit, heaps of antisemitic shit, and a while much of other racist shit.

that many Democrat leaders have made as well

If you watch the videos of those Democrat leaders, it’s pretty clear they’re waving to a crowd. Elon’s one was obviously a nazi salute.

wasteful government spending

Ah yes, wasteful stuff like vital medicine distribution and humanitarian aid, and really lowering the deficit by cutting taxes on big corporations, and giving contracts to his own company.

The issue isn’t whether or not their documented or felons, it’s that they didn’t have a trial so they didn’t have a chance to prove either way

I’m not sure ‘inching’ is the right word here. ‘Speedrunning’ might be more suitable

If you’re coming to New Zealand, you can throw a dart at a map, go there, and you’ll probably find some amazing walking track.

But if you want recommendations, my top three are lake Waikaramoana, tongariro national park, and anything in fjordland

I’ve seen a musical called Rent. It’s about people in New York who are homeless/stuck in poverty around when HIV was at its peak. Honestly I don’t know much about it, I mostly saw it because a friend of mine was performing, but it’s definitely not a typical upper middle class perspective.

I read that title and my brain just goes “… someone who would be interested in rescuing the great Kenneth Haight?”

If Pepycito is right, they might be employed as police officers, but they’re not currently working as officers. I’m no expert on US law, so I don’t know if that actually counts as impersonation, but knowing the US it proposal doesn’t matter since it wouldn’t be enforced anyway.

On those last two, watch this old ad

My personal rule is “do I know why that word is a swear word, and is that a dumb reason?”

That means Anglo-Saxon words like fuck or shit are fine. They’re swear words because of William the conqueror invading England, and making all the nobility speak Norman. Then all the peasants started to use some French words to sound more posh, so the Anglo-Saxon words became ‘less pleasant’ than the Norman words, and that meant shit, fuck, and similar words just got kicked out.

On the other hand, there are swear words I won’t use. Anything with a terrible historical use, an actually bad definition, or any religious connotation (yes, I’m religious, but I’d still keep this if I wasn’t). Example, I won’t use the word damn as a swear word, since I would never wasn’t someone to be sent to hell. No, I don’t believe that saying “damn you” will actually damn someone, but I just think it’s a swear word for a good reason.

It’s like shooting yourself with smaller bullets to build up a resistance to higher calibers

That, or six (seven now) people who really enjoy the taste of boot

You’re really not a fan of that idea. You just need to chill out about it.

• avoid immersion in salt water: it will cause rusting.
• not rated for exposure to environments with pressure above 400 kpa

I think, when done right, games are the best medium for storytelling.

• they can do the job of both movies and books. Games like dark souls use more vague descriptions to spark imagination beyond what’s onscreen
• they have a tactile feedback that no other medium has. Example being God of War (2018). When atreus is on his dickhead arc, he actually stops responding to player input, so the player really feels the change in his character.

The only downsides are that they’re harder to make than other mediums, and can be much less accessible.

If only windows just stuck to being an operating system and let you install things like one drive as plugins.

How many people actually want to support this vs just joking about it “to own the libs”.

Not excusing either option. The joking option is just as bad as long as it looks like actual support. I just wanting to know how much of that support is genuine.

OP: tells her to fuck off

Her: fucks off

OP:

My parents made sure I took swimming lessons as a kid, and as a teenager I did a lot of water sports (sailing and rowing). I grew up next to a really good lake, so it would have been a waste to not be in or on the water.
