If you've got something illegal in your car, make sure you don't have a broken tail light.

If your license is expired, don't speed.

Don't Jay walk while high.

Basically the cops catch you on the less bad thing, and that's how they are able to catch you on the second thing. They need a reasonable suspicion to stop you.

That's a good suggestion, but it's important to him that it's on Christmas Day.

His sister is a Christian, so I'm guessing they go to church Christmas eve, anyway.

I mean yeah, when I'm most depressed I practically live on fruit and veggies. Cheap at the produce stand and takes no effort to prepare, easy calories. You have to cook meat, but not watermelon. Sprinkle some parmesan on canned green beans and boom, that's dinner. You can leave apples in your room and then you don't even need to get out of bed to eat! Also bags of chips. Hey, even that's potatoes though!

But seriously, if a diet "cured depression" it wouldn't be because it's full of fruit and veg, it'd be because it's dynamic and well rounded.

I don't know why it's marked NSFW, I tried to undo that, but it won't stick.

I mean, not really. You just said it wouldn't have made a difference if I voted for Stein vs Hillary. I got several lifelong Republicans to change their voter registration to Democrat to vote for Bernie. I do not endorse voting 3rd party anymore. I used to think you should vote your conscience no matter what. I believed in a free and fair democracy. Now I think you should strategize even if the democrats suck too.

I do take responsibility for being a dumb young 20s person falling for what I now think was Russian propaganda, but Trump winning a second time had nothing to do with me. That's on people who didn't vote at all in 2024.

Most people are not cheaters. They're saying most or all politicians on the national level are cheaters. Seems like everyone but Bernie and AOC. idk how cheater-y Romney was.

I think carter was actually honest. That's why the right hates him so much.

Idk, but this definitely isn't new. I'm 31 and have been removing periods from texts for a decade to help convey tone. It's like how women use (over use?) exclamation points in emails, because periods come across as aggressive and curt. The same is true in text, but instead of exclamation points, I'm able to just leave a sentence without punctuation so it doesn't come across as angry, annoyed, or frank.

This has been well documented for a long time, but true media literacy dictates you try to ignore these rules in texts from Gen X and Boomers, otherwise they're going to come across as very rude over text with their periods and ellipses.

I fell for this, too. I felt like I needed to "punish" the democrats for corruption that blocked Bernie from what should have been rightfully his. It felt like the democrats were doing election fraud. I thought Trump wouldn't possibly win in my state anyway. Oh how naive I was.

Crazier still when you consider that the whole thing is a Democrat hoax

It's gotta be a safe part (pressure and temperature wise) because they're letting you have sick days and they're giving you the thermal suit. This challenge is about surviving life in the sea, not uninhabitable environments imo

“was passed to ensure that women and girls in Texas are protected from mentally ill men wanting to violate their basic right to privacy.”

So make it legal to take pictures of women in a private place and send them to mentally ill men?

Same with cream vs creme

 

I'm pregnant again and I guess I'm looking to vent and maybe for some affirmation.

This is my second baby, but it's my fourth time doing the first trimester. We've suffered two losses.

I'm only 7w5d and I'm already so tired of being pregnant. I'm awfully sick all day every day and I'm crazy tired no matter how much sleep I manage to get. I'm doing my best to meet my toddler's needs.

I just hate this and because of my losses I feel so guilty hating every minute of it. There's nothing beautiful about this. I just feel nausea all day long, I throw up every morning, I cry at every stupid thing, and I'm dog tired. Every smell is overwhelming to me and most food disgusts me and I'm too tired to make myself anything to eat, so I'm always hungry.

I wish I could tell everyone I come into contact with as an excuse for my exhaustion and low effort, but I know how much I won't want to talk about it if anything should happen so I'm pretty stuck there.

I just hate it and I wish more often the media would be honest about how doggone awful it is. Nothing is working to relieve my nausea. The thought of ginger makes me puke from trying that for my morning sickness so much last time.

I guess that's all. Ain't being a woman grand.

 

Is anyone else having the issue where you're 30 comments deep into a post, you reply to a comment and when you submit it refreshes the whole post making you lose your spot in the comments?

Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

I'm on a Google Pixel if that's relevant.
