  • with the exception of two brief situationships I was in cus women suck.

    This is part of the problem. You’re blaming an entire gender because you ended up in situationships.

    Even if those two women are 100% at fault, you’re not just blaming women, but saying that all women “suck”.

    women don’t wanna be talked to for more than small talk

    This is part of the problem. Why are you talking “to” women and not “with” them? What do these two different phrases (“talking to” and “talking with”) look like? There’s a huge difference.

    Plus getting out is anxiety provoking

    This is part of the problem. It’s natural for some people to have anxiety. If you have the means, see if this can be treated by a specialist.








  • I didn’t bring my old plastic bags to the store because they tended to wear out quickly and not hold up to repeated usage with weight. So they were better suited to being garbage bags in small bins around the home than they were to regular reuse for groceries, in my experience.

    As for dog poo, I thought there were special bags for those that are compostable or something? I don’t have a dog, so I’m not sure, but I don’t think I ever regularly saw people using grocery store bags for that.


  • Can’t paper bags be recycled more easily, or even composted?

    I get your perspective, and I’m frustrated that I have to buy garbage bags now.

    But my household(s) always ended up with more plastic bags than we could reuse. And before the ban, plastic bag litter was far, far more commonplace.

    imo, a good middle ground might’ve been to charge for plastic bags and use that money to fund the cleanup and recycling of plastic bags. But that’s more reactive than proactive, and it’d place disproportionate burden on the lower classes who can’t take on the higher costs as easily as wealthier people.










    1. Give all players a pause limit. A certain number of minutes per game and per pause, and a number of pauses. Players can’t pause anymore after going over their time limit or pause count limit. The game resumes after a pause’s time limit is reached.
    2. Pausing should happen after a delay of a certain number of seconds. So a player hits pause, countdown starts before actually pausing.
    3. Resuming from a pause also has a timer.
    4. Players’ pause stats are retained. People who take more pauses or spend more time pausing the game get matched with each other.


  • What you described isn’t “looks like a duck, quacks like a duck”.

    This is a fire in a government (publicly-funded) location in an industry that’s often overlooked and underfunded… in a traditionally conservative country (with a Liberal leader for the last few months) that is part of a very top-down hierarchical structure. Which would suggest that the complaints of a systems administrator are likely to be ignored. And that’s assuming that the systems administrator is competent, which isn’t a guarantee in and of itself.

    I’m seeing what looks like a duck, I’m hearing the quacks. The conspiracy theory is that it’s a squirrel in a duck costume that learned how to quack so people would toss it bread.
