How I treated who? What? Please don’t put us in the same category, it makes me feel gross

Watch it buddy, I’m 32

I can’t imagine being so rude to a stranger over a football game. Dense how?

Sweet summer child…are we talking exclusively in boring meme language now? Is this the level of discourse on this site? Disappointing. All I was saying was that overturning reds is not unprecedented and the cheeto demon should not be given sole credit, much as he wants it.

I love it when people who can’t play sports argue with me about them. Coed game is on Thursday, come play with me and then we can talk.

The problem with the current Brazil team is that they all play like jugglers. Like yeah man it’s super cool that you can pull nifty tricks while you’re juggling with your friends at the beach, but that’s not the game you’re in now so lock in

My thinking was that it may have/should have been overturned anyway since it was a bad initial call, but the orange wanted to put his name on it and everyone is giving him too much credit. I genuinely believe they would have rescinded the red regardless of him and he just had to put his rancid stank all over it.

I played all growing up, in college, and in coed leagues post-college and to this day. A couple of my friends were opining about different calls nd it made me realize one of the quickest ways to get me mad is to talk about a game you can’t even play. I know ball. It was the right decision and also the US team looked like clowns. I was at the game and nearly got heatstroke and they never deserved to even get this far but can we stop giving credit to the slug man?

How did you know? Jw

Is it uncomfortable when they move? I don’t have big boobs but I always wear a bra because I don’t like the sensation of them swinging when I walk around.

Yeah it’s not Afghanistan but in Iran it’s subject to a lot of interpretation on the part of the police and if they want to harass you they can take you in for the tiniest slip of your head covering. It’s still horrible even if not as draconian.

Fair enough. One of my close friends is Iranian but lives in the US now and she spent a couple days in prison for not covering her hair properly so I guess I’m sensitive about it. My bad

They do detain, torture, and kill women who do not cover their hair completely and dress “modestly.” This is well-established fact.

The difference between you and me is that I’m talking about the oppression of women because I care and because it matters, and you are using it as a political talking point.

Exactlyyyy. It’s basically rent to the state. We have sales tax in this state too and why are we paying taxes on home valuations when the home isn’t being sold. The house is probably going to be sold for a nursing home and bye bye inheritance for me. I wonder when this bubble is going to burst. Only my wealthiest friends anticipate getting a substantial amount from their parents.

I want to have a child but I don’t feel I can give them what they need. I would never pressure my family members to do what benefits me most, but I secretly wish that my mom would retire in Taiwan, where she was born, where she’ll have family and it might be kinder. Retiring in the US seems like the biggest grift. I won’t bring it up unless she brings up grandchildren and then I’ll say I can’t swing it unless she retires in a more affordable country. Now nobody is happy

Tests are fun as hell, are you really telling me it wouldn’t be fun to take the LSAT and then not even apply to law school just to flex on everyone?

AOC please. I don’t even agree with her on every single thing but she’s whip-smart and constantly pushing and principled

A woman singer Parastoo Ahmadi was just sentenced to 74 lashes for singing without hijab.

You guys act like this is a game and I’m so tired of it. I’m a woman. A woman is going to be publicly brutalized for singing in public without religious garb. It’s incredibly messed up that you guys can do whatever you want and hide behind Islamophobia.

Do you actually think that womens’ rights in Iran are upheld as they should be?

Even your house is a subscription in the US. My mom has to pay over $10,000 yearly in property taxes of her house that’s been paid off for over a decade. If she dies (she’s healthy so not soon, but as a hypothetical) I inherit a house I can’t afford the maintenance and taxes on. What are the luxuries? Netflix? That’s passé. We can all cancel Prime, that’s not the point.
Any new tech is a subscription unless you do all you can to research it and make sure it only connects to your network.

There is very little that people want and is easy to not have, unless you want to live a very bare-bones life. Cue Karl Marx quote about going to the pub.

Thank you <3 I feel for the people who don’t have time to waste on insurance denials who just have to eat the cost. Luckily I have time right now and I’m willing but it still blows.

I think something around 1% of denials in the US are appealed and then over 40% are overturned, but don’t quote me on those numbers. I’m remembering this from a video of a congressional hearing. Only 1% of people have that time…dystopian

I have had to argue with my insurance company, UHC, for a hospitalization that was 100% warranted. They kept me for 5 days and the docs tried to persuade me to stay for another but I was going stir crazy at that point because I felt better. I was dangerously sick and dehydrated when I went in with uncontrollable nausea and diarrhea and my heart rate at rest was 140, I was in agonizing pain, and I couldn’t walk. I had infusions running that entire time. How are they gonna tell me my hospitalization was unnecessary because some nursing notes said I was laying in bed comfortably? Yeah, because I was on oxycodone and getting better, dipshits.

I know I can win this argument but it’s going to require a ton of phone tag and talking to people who don’t know shit and escalating and that’ll easily be half of my Monday. So much productivity going to bullshit jobs that only exist to justify themselves.

I just had this conversation with my therapist where I said I don’t think that I’m necessarily depressed, but am being acted upon by the men who move only in dimly lit halls and determine my future for me, and I feel distant from others, and don’t do enough fun things. And she was like, yeah, probably.
