I can’t speak for your situation, but I do know of too many examples of marriages “just because” that made both partners completely miserable for decades. And their disgust at each other definitely was not good for the kid to grow up around.
If she’s someone you could see spending your life with, just not right now, then it’s worth considering. But either way, I would advise against agreeing to a shotgun wedding.

Sounds like her parents are trying to force you into a shotgun wedding.
Ultimately, it’s up to you if you want to go into a marriage that is very much going to be unhappy. Personally, I’d just setup child support arrangements and discuss with her what role, if any, I would have in the child’s life.

These are the shitposts I live for. Not the shit that should be in the political memes community. Thank you!

I mean, I wouldn’t say “don’t celebrate it” but just because someone else is a piece of shit isn’t a blank check for you* to be a piece of shit.

That’s like asking if every racist joke should be applied to everyone of that race. That’s kind of how stereotype-based “humor” works.

Norf F.C or “Goalposting” is the nickname given to a series of drawings and illustrations originating from 4chan’s /pol/ board satirizing Northern English
Yes, 4chan’s /pol/ board is certainly a mighty fine moral compass you’re referencing there. /s

Not saying any of it isn’t accurate for a portion of the population. But it doesn’t apply to everyone (we’re not a monoculture / planet of hats), and to paint 347,628,682 people with an ugly stereotype is, well, kinda racist / xenophobic.
- Comment on [Eagle screech] 1 week ago:
I really don’t that that gives it a pass, TBH.
- Comment on [Eagle screech] 1 week ago:
How is this not racist/xenophobic? (yeah, I know “American” isn’t a race). You make this kind of comic for any other country, and a rational person would be like “yeah, that’s…pretty racist.”

I’d previously just thought your alias was a deep cut
I guess it is now lol. At the time, though, I thought I was being creative.

That might be it. I was guessing since it’s not one I subscribe to.

- Comment on The people developing vegan meat alternatives must have eaten a lot of meat beforehand so they can replicate the taste and texture. 2 weeks ago:
I almost gave up on the dairy free cheese because Daiya was supposed to be the top-tier one. Tasted vaguely cheese-flavored plastic strips, and I was not a fan. Also refused to melt until it was just below the temperature of the surface of the sun, and when it did, it was like a pile of glue.
On a whim, I bought the Kroger store brand (Simple Truth I think?) and it’s pretty damn good. Tastes like cheese, doesn’t feel like a mouth full of plastic, melts at a reasonable temperature, the whole works.

Very good. I’ve seen too many random Google Forms going around just harvesting emails / info to plug my details into any that I don’t click into from a legit/verified site.

I’ve only tried salvia twice, and it always made me feel like my body was being twisted clockwise. Not for me.

Laughter is the best medicine. If that doesn’t work, try 50 ccs of inaprovoline. If inaprovoline doesn’t work, slap them.

I’m currently reading “Star Trek: Destiny” and the Borg seem to be the big bad.
- Comment on Why doesn't Star Trek use TrekLit for streaming shows? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t really have a solid answer, and have only recently gone down the TrekLit rabbit hole, but I’d venture a couple of guesses:
- Many of them utilize existing characters, so that might be problematic given the age of the cast and/or their availability.
- I vaguely recall that existing characters for different series have to pay royalties to the writer who invented the character. I think this was the case for Nick Locarno and Tom Paris
- Probably some other IP legalese mucking things up as it is wont to do
When I posted yesterday looking to get some book suggestions, many of them involved existing characters. I think the “The Fall” series is all original characters, so it would probably be a good candidate. There’s probably others, but I’m not familiar enough yet to name any more.
The actor age / availability problem is probably solvable if the series was animated, though.
