Post it again for the tankies in the back!

You’ve clearly never tried to use Wikipedia to help with your math homework

Where the fuck are you finding these jobs? I’ve signed contracts for blue collar work, white collar work, and even summer camp jobs I worked in high school.

Really? I’ve signed a contract for every job I’ve ever worked at that spelled out the terms of my employment. It’s not like a company hires you with a firm handshake.

Right, but most of these factors can be significantly mitigated as we age, making them non-issues.

Being more free of responsibility can be achieved via life choices in career and family. Choose a career with flexibility, and prioritize flexibility when finding new jobs or negotiating promotions. Don’t have kids if you don’t want them or aren’t ready for them.

Physical health generally declines with age, but good diet, exercise, and sleep habits keep nearly all these effects at bay. Many people can become more youthful with age simply because they are in such poor health as children.

Making and keeping friends as an adult is not that hard. While it doesn’t “just happen” like it did in school, you tend to make friends with people who you actually have things in common with. Like, for example, people who value a life without needless stress, and who value their physical health.

We can certainly mourn those who have left us. But we also make new relationships as we get older. Is life better when you have a grandparent? Or when you have a grandchild?

The trend I’ve seen with people who say this to kids is that they have failed in one or more of these areas. The classic being, say, the divorced truck driver who had kids he didn’t want, and who only interactes with people at work and at the bar. Older people I know who are doing well tend to tell younger people the steps to follow to achieve the same success and happiness.

I see I’ve found another Type 2 connoisseur.

You’d be surprised. Friend of mine dated a girl with a Danny Davito shrine

Get a JIS screwdriver. Life changing.

Yeah, tech firms that are trying to hype their AI products as the next big thing are trying to spin the narrative that they are suffering economically. As someone who was a junior sw dev in the past, I can tell you that AI written code is 100% not good enough to do that job. It might be utilized to do that work faster - but then any sensible business wouldn’t lay off their juniors, but instead would simply have them produce more output in order to sell more product and make more money.

…what are you talking about?

Right. Breasts serve a function related to reproduction - feeding children. But breast size is largely decoupled from a given breast’s ability to feed children. So why do some women have needlessly big breasts? Because breasts are an example of human sexual dimorphism, and so emphasizing them increases sexual fitness since potential mates’ brains will think “boobs = female = horny. More boobs = more female = more horny.”

It honestly looks like satire

Right. They were ever-so-slightly homophobic. We don’t want to overstate things here.

The internet hate machine is hardly an exclusively American problem.

The great irony being that Us Magazine is a tabloid that reports almost exclusively on celebrity gossip - people who clearly aren’t “Us”

She’s an OF model and this is her niche. It’s literally her job.

Typically professionals do ensure all their partners are tested beforehand.

what are the chances that the next person “inspired by” her will also do this safely?

Puritanical hand wringing. Tons of people have unsafe sex every day. If you want to lower STI spread, create public awareness campaigns and improve sex ed for students.

Grew up in N Florida. Was no where near the beach, but I would take my skim board out in the back yard during heavy rain storms and skim our slowly flooding back yard.

I mean, I honestly don’t have a problem with a notification telling me I need to top off my oil, or telling me I’ve driven enough that it is time for the scheduled maintenance. I just also want to be able to manually check the oil level with a dip stick.
