Yep. Leading up there were red flags but, like you said, so many green flags as well. What a let-down! Helped nerds brace for impact when Star Wars came back though

I also think it’s dystopian but it is quite helpful information to know when they were fed and/or napped. If you pick up your child and they are unusually hungry or tired, etc it can be helpful. I doubt the caretakers have time to talk to each parent or they change shifts. Paper forms are popular at less fancy places

Telling a 22 year old he can’t object and the sentiment of “fine, I’ll find girls for you” comes across to ME as harsh and demeaning. If my father or a fellow adult texted me like that, I would feel demeaned and that the language was a bit harsh and could be softened. Thanks for your opinion!

His communication is harsh and demeaning towards you but he seems to be trying to help and care for you. All he knows is the life he has lived, sometimes people have a hard time imagining what you’ve gone through. Do what you want! I wouldn’t be too embarrassed. Parents and loved ones have helped each other out throughout all of time. Like others have said, just be polite and close the relationship if it’s a bad match!

This reads like chainmail e-mail boomer bait.

Imagine the shear amount of waste that guy helped put on the planet! A few spots away from a real life villain!

Mildlyinfuriating

This reminds me of old “solidarity” profile picture filters that came out after the Arab Spring and later for France. Solidarity was cool but 2 clicks and a picture that doesn’t amount in any significant action or real participation and is VERY ignorable by people above the line. News media will easily spin it into whatever narrative they want as well

This one cracks me up.

This caused so much confusion for me lol. Bitch.

People don’t go to concerts to look at the audience. If anyone has a problem they are a gate keeping moron.

Took a hit professionally to move states and get out of and escape a few years of bad employers. Now I have a part-time job where I feel overqualified but it’s essentially the same price for me to be a stay-at-home dad most of the time with my new baby. So, I really hope that when she’s 5, I can have some semblance of challenge and purpose outside of fatherhood again. I am a video director so some sense of creating art for fun again would be nice, too.

Sensitive like a fine-tuned instrument or detector, not sensitive like a delicate item!

Aesthetics, for a lot of people. Keeps clutter out of everyday sight. Especially keeps clutter out of guest’s vision

Yeah, it’s hard not to imagine anything that couldn’t be compromised pretty quickly these days. That being said, is it worth the money to hunt down tens of thousands of small mesh devices? Value plays a big part in this for both sides, I guess. I actually have no idea how plausible any of it is, just fun to dream up

Mesh networks bypassing the internet become a sort of pirate radio of the future?

I support this but I find it fascinating the steam this can build and quick activism with guides and yet I never see any of this stuff when it comes to political policies

You are completely correct and their comments prove it. The bubble is strong here. But it’s a pretty nice bubble

For me, knowing my spouse’s location is just convenient for knowing ETA without bothering her. It’s not really about trust at all

I know there was a more common everyday wine with pretty low alcohol content and not much to any sweetness. Alcohol was a good way to ensure clean drinking water and naturally keeps out a lot of bad bacteria. That’s why drinking wine is way more common in the Bible AFAIK
