These are just regular ass manipulative shithead moves... What else would anyone expect from Trump and Cult 45?

Like so many other things, I doubt his camp even cares.

Daily beast published the referenced samples on YouTube.

This is small potatoes but pretty often I ride my motorcycle to go to green spaces to go for a run. Which means people sometimes see me step off my bike and just start taking off my pants and stuff. (Spoiler: I'm wearing running gear underneath my protective gear.)

I think it's because people want patterns to exist even where they don't. But this one is extra sensitive. The declaration becomes even less interesting in non-base-ten systems. I'm not even sure why 225 would be intuitive to anybody. I guess that's what makes it a shit post.

It's alright, it's art. You can't expect it to reach everyone the same way.

Once a day, think of one simple thing that a depressed person would not do. Do that. For some examples:

  • Take even the shortest walk around the neighborhood.
  • Read just ten pages of any book.

Also, think of something that you do especially when depressed, and avoid doing it. For some examples:

  • Don't watch TV
  • Don't scroll on social media

Sometimes habits become compulsive, you can do a lot for yourself by adding even a small amount of friction to doing those things. For some examples:

  • When I notice that I go through periods of poor sleep due to habitually reaching for my phone, I might remove the charger from my phone and put it in a living area and charge it there at night. I might prepare 8 hours of podcasts and connect my Bluetooth before bed so I can have something to take my mind off things in case wake up or cannot sleep.
  • Simply logout of social media sites, so that I'm forced to take a deliberate action to log back in to start doom scrolling again.

For more proactive maintenance things I try to do, which are important to establish when I'm mentally in a good place, I might make a weekly list of happy chores, like make sure I talk to a family member, make sure I talk to a friend, make sure I actually see someone in person, or play a video game in a way that I'm making progress at it, or spend 10 minutes practicing an instrument.

You need to exploit your good times to establish patterns of good habits for your hard times.

This smells like ego projection. These are tools for jobs, they don't have to compete.

You can say what you said with as many words as you want to and it still won't change a thing.

I always thought there should be more going to the restroom scenes.

I wish I could believe this number.

 

I'm not really looking to hear from people who don't think this way, with answers like "insecurity", "toxic masculinity", etc. I want to hear answers from men who really detest men who sit to pee.

Follow-up questions:

  • when you have to piss while shitting, do you stand up turn around and piss on your shit and then sit back down to finish shitting?
  • are you ever groggy in the morning?
  • how clean is your toilet and surrounding floor, and whose job is cleaning it?
  • what are your true passions in life?
 

I am curious about podcasts with high quality content but that are pretty centered around specific topics like hobbies or particular professions.

For example, there are a handful of ham radio podcasts such as Linux In The Ham Shack.

Tell me about some podcasts that keep you up in your interests or career that wouldn't make sense to share with most people you know.

 
 

I am currently redesigning my kitchen in a 1930's Midwestern USA house. The kitchen has a decent floor area but the floor plan is oddly restrictive.

My space next to the sink is such that I can either have a standard 24" dishwasher next to the sink and a slightly weird cabinet adjacent to it, or I could have an 18 inch dishwasher at 45 degrees flanked by two small but reasonably sized cabinet doors (or drawers), although the 45 degree plan would dictate a somewhat shallow custom counter depth on the flanks (like 18-20 inches).

I think I would be more proud of the accomplishment of building the angled design, and I think the ergonomics would be optimal.

But I'm not sure about the smaller dishwasher. I have never used a smaller one. It seems like it would be enough for my small family and still plenty helpful for gatherings.

 

And if you somehow disagree with flushing it down if it is brown, I suppose I would like to hear about that as well.
