I have a beach vacation next month to prep for, so I guess I'm heading to Taco Bell

My friend told me the other day "oh wow! My friends actually liked you!" I said, "you know, you have to stop being surprised that people like me. That's kind of insulting."

I have mixed feelings. My partner and I have been together about 18 years and have played with some others occasionally in the past, but the idea of a permanent third person in the relationship is not for us. We've been together long enough that we're comfortable and are at an age where interest from others begins to dry up. If we're out somewhere and someone takes interest in us, it's a fun little ego boost for the evening and we'll flirt and have fun and appreciate the attention. Usually it's not more than a little kissing. We haven't invited anyone into the bedroom with us in years but I have had a couple approved sidequests while on solo vacations. If it were a situation where there were serious feelings and emotions, rather than just fun and lust, it would be very different for us and not something we'd anticipate being open to. We don't want too many cooks in the kitchen.

Probably because the manosphere is making straight men extremely unpalatable to women so they're having to straight up buy wives or stay lonely.

No. I like Bowen but Matt Rogers is an annoying and unfunny coat tail rider.

The show is so gross to me. It's gay sex for a straight audience. If a straight man was writing about lesbians, we all know people would have a lot more to say about it.

She should just rerelease the album and all physical media under a new name, resell it to all her fans, and game the system again while Swifties defend it as a work of art that non-fans can never understand.

Is that Jared Leto in the role of Jim Carrey?

I should hope so after 400+ men.

This situation is awful and I feel so bad for MBJ and Lindo. This absolutely could have been handled all around, but learning there was ample time to edit that out of the broadcast is especially a bad look on BBC's part. I had a teacher in high school who had Tourette's. I know it varies for everyone, but she could kinda tell when she was about to have an outburst and would step out in the hallway rather than screaming curse words and slurs directly in front of students. Sometimes she'd sit on a bench in the hallway and let it subside, and come back and move on with class. No need to apologize, since it wasn't her fault, but she also identified it was an issue and took the initiative to avoid offending people when possible. I have to imagine this could have been accommodated for and he could have been seated near an aisle or exit where he could remove himself from the situation when he felt the tic coming on. And in the event he couldn't make it out the door in time, BBC still should have taken the initiative to edit that out of the broadcast. There's no need to air that.

I mean, he kinda seems like he'd agree with what anyone says, so he's probably easy to get along with. Any sense of personality has been CTE'd out of him

When I was like 19 and working as a cashier at Kroger, I once had a man come up to me while I was helping a customer and accuse me of wearing makeup. Like came up visibly angry and said "are you wearing eyeshadow!? What MAN would be wearing eyeshadow??" I told him I wasn't wearing any makeup but he kept insisting and was raising his voice. Finally the lady I was helping turned to him and said "Why are you looking so closely at a teenage boy?" He got very red in the face and walked away. I think about that lady often lol. I genuinely wasn't wearing makeup though.

Ice Spice literally exists

I haven't been fully able to cut them off because they're my parents and I know they didn't reason themselves into becoming Trump supporters. They're products of the American south and the idea that Democrats are demonic communists that want to take your guns and abort all your babies has been drilled into them since they were children. I know they have not actually sat down and reasoned with why they continue to support Republicans, because they can't comprehend they've been lied to their entire lives. People really want to think all MAGA supporters have reflected on things and stood their ground but it's just not the case. For many, their churches told them to vote MAGA so who are they to argue with god? Leaving MAGA, for many, is as big as leaving their religion. I don't fully understand what's going on in their heads, but they continue to support me and my partners as a gay men, regardless of politics, so it's hard for me to just cut them off when there's clearly more to the picture. If you close the door and lock it, there's no chance of them ever walking through to your side.

My friends and I are mid-30s and they still get blackout drunk every weekend and cancel any plans we've made because they're too hungover to make it. Honestly it wasn't really cute at 25 but it's really not cute now. They've also recently gotten DUIs but managed to get off with light punishments so learned absolutely nothing and are still sipping and swerving. One of our friends called them out on it and they kicked her out of the friend group and started hanging out with younger people who enable them. My partner and I have actually recently started making new friends that aren't so messy because it's getting worse and is embarrassing. We're even talking about moving cities because the only thing keeping us here was our friends but it honestly doesn't feel worth it anymore.

Every single nation has borders and policy in place for crossing those borders. I'll never understand why that is only considered unacceptable for the US. I'm extremely liberal and very pro-immigration, but defending illegal immigration is just madness to me. I don't care how liberal you are or want to be, if you think our borders should just be open, think of your ideal country. Got one in mind? Cool. Now look up its immigration policy. Can you just walk right in unannounced and unapproved and get to stay? Didn't think so… Now is that country suddenly unethical for having border control?

How many people have they asked? Because they're saying Adele turned it down too.

I went to the Mayhem Ball solo a couple weeks ago and had a great time! I've been to a couple other concerts solo also. I just kinda decided one day that I couldn't let my friends' lack of interest (and money) hold me back from doing things I want. If you're there to enjoy the concert, you really don't need friends because your attention should be on the show anyway imo. But it's definitely nice to have someone with you to watch your stuff, hold your spot, etc. sometimes.

Where do people even find these nobodies to listen to? Like…he was touring? He has enough fans to tour? HOW?

I'm trying out the white Air and seeing how I like it. If I don't, I'll probably exchange it for an orange Pro Max. Not a huge fan of the new Pro design but do love the orange color option. The Airs just look sleeker and more Apple to me.

Life in my 30s has been the best it's ever been. My 20s kinda sucked. Also, I have a friend who is 35 but tells everyone he meets that he's 43 so they'll compliment him more and tell him he looks great for his age and think he's more mature. Don't be like him. I think it's kinda pathetic, honestly.

I've found that the best way to identify a gay man is to look very closely at his mouth. If there's a d*ck in it, he's almost certainly gay.

I've never once heard Fortnight in the wild. Anywhere. Abracadabra has been playing everywhere since it came out. Sure, Fortnight has more streams but that's just because Swifties keep TTPD on in the background all day like how boomers watch Fox News 💀

She was doing it at all the press performances for this album before this too though. Seriously the only clips I've seen of her posted on this forum have been her singing The Climb. It's wild. Or have those performances been the only ones worth sharing? I'm generally a big Miley fan but the promo for this album has been so bizarre.

It really cracks me up how she promotes this album cycle by constantly performing The Climb rather than any song off the current album
