It just confuses me. Two people, one a prince, one an actress, decide to marry. Big wedding. They have children. They have problems. They leave one country for another. What is the big deal that all these people are obsessed with catting about and hating Meghan Markle?
I talked to my friends recently about this and they were quite shocked to hear that I poop 3 times a day almost everyday. I'm 18f, not sure if that matters. I know thats technically a healthy amount but it seems not many people actually poop 3 times a day every day. Also, I don't eat a crazy amount of food, 2 meals a day and thats it. Is this normal?
Like billionaires/celebrities/elites having burner accounts on Reddit/Insta/Facebook etc to shitpost or argue on the internet
I am not a regular reddit user, so forgive me if I'm in the wrong place. Here I go.
I(35f) have a daughter(16f Autistic+OCD) who prefers to dress rather conservatively. She loves wearing frilly, colorful skirts and dresses with multiple layers. As a seamstress, I enjoy making these clothes for her because they facilitate my hobby of sewing and make her feel beautiful and confident. My mother, however, has shown concern that my daughters lack of interest in displaying her womanly features (cleavage, etc.) is a sign of psychological instability. She worries that my daughter's interest in frilly dresses is a symptom of her desire to cling to childhood. She even suggested that my daughter is severely mentally unwell. My daughter is an excellent student in school and is expected to get her learners permit soon. She even wants to get a summer job. I don't know where this concern about infantilization is coming from. I may be the crazy person here, but I don't see anything wrong with letting my 16 yr old break from modern fashion norms and be confident in herself. I just don't see how making her dress like everyone else at the expense of her self-esteem would be better for her mental health. She's never been bullied for her dress. She actually regularly receives compliments. Am I missing something?
Given summer is upon us. Who truly enjoys baked beans? I'm talking bush's baked beans, pork n beans, etc. the slightly sweet sauced, navy bean American fare aide dish.
I mean, they're there and yeah I'll get some because they're a complimentary thing, but even when I get them, they're always a pile of meh to get through. Most of the time, they're cold.
What is the metric that they decided to base a ketchup packet on?
I often see poll questions with “gaining the ability to teleport” as one of the options, and it makes me wonder what would plausibly happen to someone if society found out they had it.
Killed immediately? Kidnapped and experimented on? Forced labour? Would they be protected by the usual human rights if they had that much power, basically?
I’m curious what everyone thinks.
Like why dont we just give up? What is it that drives us on a consicious level?
I’m originally more of a suburban guy and I recently visited NYC from Texas and I couldn't help but wonder how people do this full time
Tiny apartments, insane rent, hearing traffic/sirens nonstop, packed trains, random chaos everywhere. I saw apartments that cost a fortune and were smaller than some bedrooms back home.
Do you eventually become immune to the noise and lack of space? How do people manage to live there? It's astonishing
The person that did this also tried to text me to invite me to their baby shower.
So something that I have been noticing is that there is a growing trend of graduation commencement speakers talking about how AI is the future. But the main issue is that these speakers are celebrating AI in their commencement speeches to fresh college graduates who have spent years of their lives learning their fields and stressing about AI taking their jobs.
Do they realize the audience that they are speaking to? Do they not see the reactions other speakers are getting? Are they so obsessed with AI that they do not see the negative impacts that AI is causing for these new graduates and the environment? Why do you guys think that they are doing this?
I spoke to someone who claims to be Italian American despite the last person in their family to actually be born in Italy to be 125 years ago. thats like 5 generations ago....
and it just made me think, this being such an American thing to do, at what point do you stop using that identifier? why not go further back and just be italian-british then since at some point the american in you is just british right? why not roman-american? or why not just african american since you go far back enough thats just where everyones from?
i always found this so odd for a people so proud of who they are, as Americans, you also really like to use the identifier to make sure everyone know you arent entirely American.
Like do they still use english words for the code?
I realized if that’s true it’d feel a lot more harder for a non english coder to learn code
I had two exes who always claimed I gave them blue balls and that they hurt whenever I wouldn't want to go all the way. Other guys have told me that's not real and it's just a way to get the girl to sleep with them. What is even true at this point lmao
It's interesting. I don't really see seething hatred from the Vietnamese today after what happened during the war. What caused this? Most countries the US interfered in have a lasting hatred for the US. Why isn't this replicated in Vietnam?
Like we don’t usually feel our heart beating unless we exercise or get anxious or scared we don’t feel food moving through our intestines, and we don’t feel blood running through our veins
There’s this amazing Thai place and I love Thai food so much and it’s a little family owned place but I’m embarrassed because I already stopped in 4 nights in a row and I’m REALLY CRAVING Thai again tonight!!! Should I go or no??
For context I’m 17 (F) grew up in a Muslim household and Muslim myself, but ever since I was little probably around 6 I remember being told to cover up my body whenever men come around and to cover my hair , which I guess I’ve become accustomed to. I don’t want to go against my beliefs or anything but I feel like the concept of women covering themselves so that they don’t appeal to men seems quite objectifying and slightly dehumanising or is it just me , as well as them being told to “lower their gaze” when looking at women, it makes me feel like I’m being portrayed more as an appealing object rather than just a person 😭. Idk let me know what you guys think
We spend significantly more hours watching professionals, athletes, and creators perform hobbies through screens rather than practicing them ourselves.
Is this passive viewership a psychological escape from the stress of modern life, or has the digital era simply made our own amateur attempts feel less satisfying?
Well. Title says it . Just a link or some fashion tips are welcome .
Tbh just wanna dress like a wizard .
