Great tip, I love sweetened drinks!

It’s why they have those annoying gates at Kroger now, to stop people from just walking out with carts full of groceries.
Lame.

I know you meant “patents,” but filial responsibility laws need to go, too. Adult children should not be expected to foot the bill for their aging parents’ inflated medical bills.

- Comment on Marriage is FOMO 1 month ago:
My partner and I are committed, and want to get married. Can’t for financial reasons.
We both have to go to the hospital every once in a while (bad health). I fear for the time I am barred from seeing her because it is “family only” and I am legally a stranger.
- Comment on Exactly Six Months Ago, the CEO of Anthropic Said That in Six Months AI Would Be Writing 90 Percent of Code 1 month ago:
I worked with someone that I later found out used AI to code her stuff. She knew how to code some, but didn’t understand a lot of fundamentals.
Turns out, she would have AI write most of it, tweak it to work with her test cases, and call it good.
Half of my time was spent fixing her code, and when she was fired, our customer complaints went way down.
- Comment on From burner phones to decks of cards: NYC teens are adjusting to the smartphone ban 1 month ago:
I knew people from bigger cities that had metal detectors in the mid-aughts. I think they’re wider spread now, but I don’t know much about schools now. Not sure about X-ray machines, never heard about those in a school.
In the sticks, we don’t have any of the machines. The textbooks are usually older than the pupils too and a lot of the stuff is in poor repair, so it may be an issue of funding.

I haven’t looked into him for a while, but that is not surprising. He was not fit to live on his own and his father seemed to give no fucks.

What would he do on his own? What would have you done on your own as a kid? If these answers are different, why?
How will negative consequences be handled, like he doesn’t pay rent, runs out of money for food, or he damages the apartment? What about really big ones, like he allows someone to stay over long enough that they become an established tenant, cause problems, and then don’t leave? In your jurisdiction, are there legal consequences for you if he breaks the law that you would not face if he were legally an adult?
Is there a plan for if he decides he wants to move back?
Do you foresee any legal consequences? For instance, if his school learns about this arrangement, will CPS or the police get involved? Is that something you can recover from?
In the right circumstances, I think this is a good idea. As a parent, your job is to prepare him for adulthood. Letting him live on his own, while meeting his needs (food, shelter, healthcare) with a safety net can work. A lot can make these the wrong circumstances. Only you can answer whether or not the circumstances are right in your situation.

She is partially right. Some women wear sexy clothes because they want attention and/or they feel pressured to, so they might wear them, even if they don’t like them.
Some women like the way they look and feel in sexy clothes, so they just wear them for themselves. It’s not necessarily for male (or any other gender’s of interest) attention.
In my experience, the former happens less. I’m not sure if it’s due to the crowd I hang out with changing or a gradual cultural shift.

- Comment on I Tried Every Todo App and Ended Up With a .txt File 2 months ago:
The author uses a lot of the same reasoning I do for using a bullet journal. (Some people like making theirs more elaborate or add more complexity - I keep mine very simple.)
Though I do like the idea of keeping the text document synced everywhere.
The thing I like my bullet journal for over a living document and using sticky notes, is that I can see very easily what I have accomplished. I started getting frustrated at never having everything done that I wanted. After starting the bullet journal, I could actually see what took up my time, and I was able to cut myself a lot more slack.

I am really, really sorry. That really bothers me when people do it, but I know it helps them. I try to tolerate it if I’m not having an awful sensory day, but sometimes it’s like the noisy lightbulb and I just can’t take it.
- Comment on If youre bi do you have to prove it? 4 months ago:
No. I’ll take someone at their word about their sexual orientation.
If someone is bi and they only date people of the opposite gender, they’re still bi. They’re not straight but want to be different.
If someone is bi and they only date people of the same gender, they’re still bi. They’re not gay in denial.
If someone says they’re bi, and they’re not… Who cares?
