Woman here, so I like to think Im at least alright with women.

• Being generally clean is nice. Invest in a good deodorant and have a subtle cologne if youre going to go on a date, and a little goes a long way. You can get decent ones at Sephora or Bath and Body Works. Also brush those teeth! So many dudes seem to ignore that and its not appealing to have stinky breath for anyone.
• Have some good fashion! Its not super important but it helps and its nice to have an outfit complemented on. Things like Stitchfix are good since they have people that can help you figure out your style pretty effectively. You dont need super expensive stuff and not every girl wants some dude in an Armani suit. Just wear what you feel fits your frame and general aesthetic.
• Dont focus too much on her or yourself. Youre on a date to get to know each other. Let the conversation go back and forth. Ask her about her hobbies and things she does with her friends. Ask if she wants to do those things with you. Some of my favourite dates tend to be when were doing something both of us can enjoy. Its okay if its just dinner and bowling or whatever. Explore each other as people and go from there. Dont be nervous. Dont put her on a pedestal. That just feels weird and not great because you wont let yourself relate to her.

Thats just basic stuff but if you have any other questions @LB1 feel free to ask!

I try to when I go out. I have severe asthma but Im also the only one who can drive and get groceries. I usually have to stick with the paper masks since the cloth ones make it hard to breathe after like 15 minutes.

I handled the dishes, the cat box, cleaning up after the dogs, taking out trash, mowing the lawn and various carpentry around the house. My dad didnt care who you were, he just didnt like people taking a break. On the bright side, I can build a porch! On the downside, my dad is a massive asshole for unrelated reasons so I dont talk to him.

Who is it hurting? Other than their own reputation

Victimless crimes aren't real crimes

Its mainly about respecting other people. To show up in literal blackface and own it is generally a really disrespectful thing to black people. If you found a black person who was okay with it, thats an exception to the rule.

If they dont get in trouble for it, it also makes that behaviour look okay to other people who might hold similar sentiments. Then in theory, you see it escalate to violent race crime and eventually systemic oppression of a whole race.

Not like thats ever happened before. /s

Guidelines that mostly boil down to "don't be an insufferable dick in extremely obvious ways," which are pretty easy for most people to follow. As long as you aren't showing up to an anti-racism rally in blackface or erecting a burning cross on somebody's yard, you generally aren't going to run afoul of hate speech laws.

Shhh dont disturb his magical fantasy land where Canada ships people to gulags for saying they dont like hip hop.

Freedom of expression is generally illegal in Canada, unless it comports with state-sanctioned guidelines. In many regards, Canada is more like China than the US. And, like China, Canada has these weird nationalistic rules that limit how much "foreign" material can be shown on tv or played on the radio and, because of the weird restrictions, some musical artists born in Canada are considered too "foreign" to meet the qualifications.

Someone has never lived in Canada before lol.

Im glad to hear you separated yourself from a toxic family member. I did the same with my dad a couple of years ago now. He used similar emotional manipulation tactics and also enjoyed deriding my life choices and wouldnt take anything I stood for seriously.

Great job. Youll have a much more fulfilling life without that bullshit in your life.

Generally fine, but I have to admit, there have been brief moments of dread at the state of unrest around the world. The silver lining being that these moments offer an opportunity for introspection and mindfulness.

This is what my wife and I have been doing. Its been nice to discuss the issues at hand and we can grow closer to understanding each other and thankfully agree on whats wrong with everything happening.

The existential dread is not great though.

Haven't hard Hardee's in forever, but I remember loving that chain. Apparently it also doesn't have any locations in CT... or NY... or even Jersey.

Hardees seems to be a southeastern thing while Carls Jr is more of a west coast chain. Either way Im missing out being in Canada.

thats funny cause I think the best breakfast sandwich Ive ever had was also at a Hardees

this was years ago but it was fried pork tenderloin on a biscuit with white gravy, was so good

That sounds amazing. I dont know how they do it but Hardees just has the best breakfast stuff.

Carls Jr is pretty good. I remember visiting family in South Carolina and Hardees has these breakfast biscuits with bacon, egg, cheese and a big fucking piece of fried chicken. After trying it I ordered another one. Easily the best breakfast sandwich I had in my life.

Do I think he should be charged? Absolutely. He murdered another human being in cold blood despite the person complying with his requests and repeated that he couldnt breathe due to how he was being restrained.

Knowing the situation as it is? Theres a faint glimmer of hope that hell actually be tried and convicted. The realist in me says hell be tried and found not guilty.

Trump signed an executive order in the Oval Office on Thursday that calls for new regulations under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act of 1996 (CDA) to remove statutory liability protections and cut federal funding for tech companies that engage in censorship and political conduct.

So since it doesnt benefit him anymore, its okay for him to change the law then? And dont say that Im jumping the gun because the order came hot off the heels of him being fact checked. Fact checking is not a form of censorship. Being told youre wrong about something isnt suppressing your right to say things. Even if it were outright removed, if he agrees to the user agreement then it sucks to suck for him.

https://about.fb.com/news/2020/05/april-cib-report/

Let's see your sauce. Why is this not a stretch?

This seems weirdly off base. So Facebook self regulates and removes misinformation campaigns? Thats their right to do that as a private entity. If anything, these groups have a bigger argument for censorship than Trump does. And even then, if they want to sow misinformation and theyre proven wrong, why would they be surprised at being removed when the entity in question clearly desires to remove it.

I'm not defending Trump. I just see him get attacked for some ridiculously sounding shit everywhere I look.

Maybe if its happening everywhere you look, could there be a possibility that he may, in fact, be doing ridiculous sounding shit?
