I only had one real relationship before my wife, and I was the one broken up with.

I was devastated, and just generally sad for probably a month or so. After a while, I started to realize that my life with her would have been pretty bad. She was shallow, judgemental, not particularly bright, kinda bad in bed. I would’ve stayed with her out of loyalty though.

It gave me the push to improve myself and get out there more, and I became much happier than I was when we were together. I’ve been with my wife for 13 years now, and she’s amazing.

Cartesian hasselback

I was gonna make a joke, but then I read the article and

After serving enlisted in the United States Air Force, Eiffel entered the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1993. In her first year, she was sexually assaulted by another cadet, but thwarted the attack with a training sword. She was subsequently dismissed from the Academy with a personality disorder: “I really felt that the only way for me to sleep is if I was holding onto something, like my sword, because that was the one thing that protected me. And it just got worse,” she said.

kinda takes the fun out of it

Twin Peaks, by David Lynch. I specify, because there was a period when he wasn’t involved, and it shows. Those episodes are kind of a slog. But as soon as he comes back, so does the magic.

There was an apartment we lived in when I was 6-7 which for some reason has some hazy spots, but besides that yeah pretty much. Friends’ houses, schools since 9ish (at least the parts I went to), every workplace, theme parks, basically anywhere I’ve been a few times.

This is a horrible policy, the consequences of imperceptible yaks are disastrous to our economy and public safety. Recriminalize it.

Llama, bonobo, elephant(it ate some of my mail)

Most nights I sleep on the cheap, hard futon couch I’ve had since college. If I sleep in my actual bed too many nights in a row, my back starts to get stiff.

When did Harris bomb Iran?

Harris would not have done the same, so yes voting would have prevented it. Not voting did not prevent the genocide in Gaza. So you accomplished nothing, and things got worse.

Ad-hominem all you want, your opinion has no value whatsoever. Grow up and think about something besides virtue signaling for once.

Life has many doors, Ed-boy

Braindead bad faith take. Who’s gloating? It’s tragic. This could have been prevented.

I don’t support either of those things, but they’re happening either way. Hence why I voted for the one poised to do less. Unfortunately, not enough people did the same thing, and now we’re bombing Iran. I guess you won. Congrats?

I learned on tiny back roads in hill country in a GMC Yukon Denali. That thing was the size of a small bedroom. Can confirm, driving anything else is a piece of cake.

Do you not even remember your own point?

If Democrats would stop voting for what they thought was the lesser evil things wouldn’t keep getting worse

That’s precisely splitting the vote.

Who is the DNC mass murdering right now? The government is controlled by Republicans right now. The Democrats losing the election did not end the genocide in Gaza, in many ways it’s gotten even worse. And now Republicans are doing additional terrible things that the Democrats would not have done.

You care more about posturing and virtue signaling your purity than you care about other countries. Everything is worse now but at least you didn’t compromise.

So then you admit that it’s a useless hypothetical, and your proposed strategy doesn’t actually accomplish anything except splitting the vote to let the far right win more?

When did I “shit on” it? I’m just saying it’s a complicated undertaking with practical concerns that require consideration.

When did I say that? I’m for a general strike, I’m just not for a half-assed general strike that’s doomed to fizzle out within a week.

Successful strikes have had strike funds. Unfunded strikes fail.

I never said to do nothing. But action for action’s sake without setting the necessary foundation is foolish and counterproductive.
