I mean this is criminal negligence that lead to many deaths. I'm not a fan of the death penalty but they should be held as liable as a drink driver or someone who skimps on building materials and kills someone when the building collapses.

Regardless of what one might think should happen or expect to happen, the actual psychological effect is harmful to the victim. It's like if you walked up to someone and said "I'm imagining you naked" that's still harassment and off-putting to the person, but the image apps have been shown to have much much more severe effects.

It's like the demonstration where they get someone to feel like a rubber hand is theirs, then hit it with a hammer. It's still a negative sensation even if it's not a strictly logical one.

One man's far end is another's centrism. I don't think there are too many truly centrist places left because the Gulf between left and right is so wide the center is just a giant ball of contradictions or meaningless statements.

Are you eating ripe or young jackfruit? Young jackfruit is what's often used as a meat substitute, ripe jackfruit is sweet and has a unique flavor.

Dyson Sphere program has some great interplanetary and intersolar exploration and supply chain building. I thin that's the more apt comparison.

I went through a bi panic in college and did a bunch of thought experiments with myself, mainly because I want getting action from either gender to try and test that out.

I find a coffee type meeting and a conversation is a good way to feel out of it's a crush or actual connection. I definitely wouldn't linger if there's a mismatch in expectations but I've also regretted jumping straight to dating with someone I would have liked to hang out with platonically but now they feel weird about it or think I dumped them.

It's definitely not how a less emotionally mature me would have operated so maybe your right and it's not the best advice here.

I think it's a cultural thing, if I meet someone in certain contexts it's better to start with coffee or drinks after work and feel each other out 1 on 1, and in others like an app or singles event, just ask them out. I also guess some people would call the first thing a date.

If you only talked to her once or something and didn't know her that well, maybe just ask her to hang out at the comic book store and mention you enjoyed talking with her, or something you genuinely liked when you last talked to her (other than her looks).

This sets up a low expectation meeting where you can figure out if it's a crush or you actually like her and if it's not mutual you can just hang out as friends if both of you are comfortable with that. The goal should be to feel out of you like her and not to try and convince her to go on a real date, just be yourself and see if there is compatibility in a one on one setting.

Just be honest with how you feel at the the and respect her feelings as well.

In areas that have housing shortages you probably would see a rise in rent as the market of people looking to buy nicer places increases quickly but actually increasing the housing stock in desirable areas takes some time.

I think in the long run it would be a net positive and also would need to be paired with some measure of regulation around arbitrary increases in rent for landlords.

Yeah, mentally I feel my assigned gender at birth which ironically is why I can see how people maybe wouldn't.

It's only blocked in India, while not great we can still access it and the information is still out there for anyone with a VPN.

Careful, sounds like that one might foam up out of the bottle.

I think this is valid perspective to add color to the discussion around the implicit claim that India has a disproportionately high problem of rape relative to other (usually developed) countirew and not an excuse for this incident. If anything it highlights the extent of rape in the US.

I'm not sure what the difference in rates of reporting is in both countries, but the rate of reporting has been rising in India, so seeing increased rates of reported assault on the short term could also be a good thing.

It does if they're trying to prosecute you in the court of public opinion.

Honestly, I think it's a store manager is an asshole, but happens to work for a company that's an easy target story.

Tbf, this time it didn't seem like Elon was behind this, probably some manager in the dealership. The article also said he commented they would pay her when he heard the news.

Nice.

Depends. If they're focused on specific demands and done at the right time combined with direct advocacy, they can do a lot to affect change.

Maybe not the most helpful answer, but self confidence is a huge part of it. I think that's why a lot of guys feel like they get more attention when they're in a relationship compared to when they are looking.

There's nothing wrong with dipping your feet in the dating pool while you're working on yourself, but spend some time doing things for yourself, not for other people to like you.

If you're into music, listen to stuff and play stuff, if you're into computer games play them and try connecting to people along that avenue. Don't worry about it you're hobby is dorky, just worry about if you enjoy it and are happy doing it. That should help develop a sense of identity and purpose separate from what other people think of you.
