  • This is such a lovely question. Thank you for being you.

    I'd say that it would be important to talk positively about the women you know. If you have a female SO, for example, tell him how smart and curious and funny she is. Make a point to be open about the respect you feel for the contributions of your female co-workers. Tell him stories about when girlfriends were clever, and so on.

  • Ooooo, this is a good question!

    I think mine would be wasabi (or horseradish, depending on how much you are spending). So delightful.

  • If forced to choose, I'd give up flying. As I'm scared of it anyway, that makes the most sense. :)

    That said, I think that if we all just did less of those things, it would be good too. Take more vacations near home. Eat meat only a few times a week. That sort of thing.

  • Hey, I think it's fine to cut yourself some slack on this issue. :-)

    You like what you like, and if you're going to commit resources and time to another being over 18 years or so, I think it's fine to enjoy the way it looks! I for example love gray cats, but only because of a positive association I have with a previous pet. Are all gray cats as loving as he was? I'm sure not, but I still have such positive thoughts in my head about the grey babies. 

  • Internet hugs to you, friend!!

  • That's so weird that he came back. God that looked like a stroke.

  • My parents were…not great. One of the ways they were not great was that I wasn't exposed to a lot of new things, so I didn't have Chinese or Mexican food until I was an adult, not to mention Thai, Middle Eastern, Indian, Japanese, and so on.

    So my 20s felt like a decade just full of "holy shit this is amazing" and also a peculiar shame for not knowing such things existed.

  • If this Twitter tanking by Musk isn't intentional, he's one of the stupidest oligarchs to ever exist.

  • Yep, X Æ A-Xii, X for short.

    This is what comes when people equate having money with creativity and intelligence.

  • The way to get people on your side (and you know, actually help the animals) is to do pretty much the opposite of what you're doing. Black-and-white thinking ("either you're a vegan, or you're a bloodmouth!") is paradoxically going to drive people away from what you're saying and cause more animals to be harmed.

  • That's exactly it. Almost 70 percent of land is in the northern hemisphere.

  • Yeah at this point, there's two types of people. Those who aren't interested in climate change either because they don't believe it will happen or believe we can stop it, and those who are absofuckinlutely terrified. I think I'd rather be blissfully ignorant.

  • I lift weights. What else is there? :)

  • It's easy to look at this from the lens of people just wanting power, but maybe it's something akin to the grief, honest grief, I felt about leaving Reddit because I had been there so long as just a user. I can't imagine how it would feel to give up control over something that I had created and curated for many years knowing that it was going to be destroyed.
