Wielding the stick of grandmotherly kindness. (She/Her)
And not to be a jerk, but primarily porn blogs that follow me tend to get blocked.
Nothing personal, I just want to curate my experience here, and I want to interact with
people in a different context
I love it when someone is like "You have to respect the controversy and give due consideration to both positions" but like one position is something like "I think the world is governed by observable laws we can test through repeatable experiments" and the other position is like "Here are some items of secret wisdom which a ghost revealed to me in a dream"
I have a dress shirt I am wearing right now that got ironed because it started life as a man's shirt, and I tailored it to fit my body. You have to iron the darts or it looks sloppy.
I will be unlikely to iron it again, however, because it was made of a fabric that doesn't much wrinkle.
I rarely iron clothes outside of a sewing context. It's usually unnecessary.
if you don‘t personally own one but your roommates/parents do and you are allowed to use it, that counts as yes
And no, you don't have miracle voice control over your dog without a LOT of drill, people.
Most people seriously overestimate how well their dog is trained and what that dog's limits are.
YES YES I NEED THIS SIGN IN EVERY SINGLE PARK PLEASE
This is my daily struggle, I had so many arguments with people with off-leash dogs (in a mandatory leash area!!!). Thanks to this behavior I'm struggling with Kim being anxious/aggressive with other females as she often gets involved in unpleased interactions with free females while on leash. And every single time that I ask for the dog to be at least recalled, I'm being called names and insulted of course.
Also 9 out of 10 their dog isn't really that friendly at all.
Something about the idea that voting for president only matters if you live in a swing state, and that all the people in blue states or red states can indulge themselves in principled nonparticipation because the outcomes are preordained, strikes me as akin to playing with fire.
Is it really coherent to say "both sides are awful, write in Mickey Mouse or burn your ballot or just stay home and get drunk, unless you live in Pennsylvania, in which case maybe consider taking one for the team and compromising yourself by voting for the lesser evil?" Is that really the message that will lead to a preferable outcome?
What it sounds like to me is a sign that 1) you take your local electorate for granted, and 2) you see avoiding the worst case scenario as somebody else's problem.
I remember when Florida was a swing state. I also remember when Pennsylvania wasn't.
