Making friends in Finland 🇫🇮

But sometimes this can be uncomfortable... Are you able to just confidently walk up and grab it or do you loudly first ask "DO YOU NEED A HAND?!"

Most of the time this makes them super uncomfortable, which is great! Better them than me. But other times they're way too okay with it.

Well-meaning but misguided pro-LGBTQIA arguments

Reply in thread

That's exactly where I took my argument with 2 coworkers last week. I tried multiple methods to appeal to empathy or logic, but both failed. So I just declared that we aren't changing any policies with our discussions so maybe we just focus on issues that have a more direct impact on our lives, like worker's rights, healthcare, environmental issues, etc.

Dozens of former Katie Porter staffers pen open letter defending her, months after backlash

The only live shows I've watched in years is sports. Lately some NBA playoffs have been entertaining, but the ads are insufferable. I've been adverse to ads for a long time but especially the gambling ones are just ridiculous.

If you haven't been exposed to this shit in awhile, then yeah, I could totally see it being overwhelming. Hopefully Steyer can't just buy enough name recognition to win, but sadly that seems to be one of the biggest drivers of turnout.

My wife and I made the decent walk at least 6-7 times while we were there for 10 days 2 years ago. The fried onions and sauces they put on make the hot dogs so delicious! One of multiple solid reasons to visit, for sure.

Hollywood Is Cranking Out Original Movies. Audiences Aren’t Showing Up.

Those shows aren't going anywhere. They'll be waiting for your viewing pleasure whenever you're ready! I was late to Game of Thrones at like season 5, so still had time to catch up. I hope Succession keeps going and Severance is really fucking good right now...

I've been getting into nature shows lately outta nowhere. There's something soothing about it, but they're also informative. I'm just rolling with it

Your mission, should you choose to accept it.

Probably not official, as that likely doesn't exist (yet). These are sellers that are catering to fuckers that want to bask in the misery of others. Since they're trying to profit from this situation, we have an opportunity to make their business tougher and hopefully aggravate them into failing.
