I would inform potential dates that there really isn’t going to be a family for them to meet and that I am probably the last representative of that family. If they ask me if they’re going to have a father-in-law or a mother-in-law, I would tell them it is probably in title only.

The goal is to spare your dates or would-be newlyweds from getting involved with what drama or dysfunctionality your family has gone through. You are doing your date a huge favor.

Yeah be selective.

Yeah you guys can play the selective game all you want. It’s hypocritcal that you’re the same people who probably cancel others for years old twitter statuses, but because a black man said racial things, then it’s a different outcome? Where’s the consistency?

Oh so we’re in an age where we shame people for 10+ year old twitter statuses and cancel them. But because a black guy said some things then you decide it’s undated? Double standards, much?

Stop, AOC, you’re making them blush. This is their nature.

Al Sharpton is a racist. Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X he is not.

You cannot advocate for the rights of your own race while turning around and taking opportunities to speak in public forums about how bad you think the white man is. Can’t have it both ways.

Oh, we got some people who don’t think so?

Here’s proof: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/BILLS-106hconres289ih/html/BILLS-106hconres289ih.htm

Now try and tell me he isn’t a racist. I’ll take downvotes as admission of guilt.

In response to the executive orders, the activist and Baptist minister Rev Al Sharpton announced in January that a council with his organization, the National Action Network, would conduct a study on companies that are ending their DEI policies. By May, the council will select two companies to focus on. Sharpton and his organization will then publicly scrutinize the companies for backing away from their DEI goals.

“Donald Trump can’t make us buy your stuff. The Senate can’t make us buy your stuff,” Sharpton said at a speech last month. “In the name of Dr [Martin Luther King Jr], we’re going to do what King did.”

This is my huge takeaway from this entire article. Another opportunity has risen for Sharpton to run his big fat mouth and be the two-faced individual that he is. He’s not here because he legitimately cares about the DEI programs, he’s here because he knows he can be racist himself in a subtle matter against white people, as he has long been for years.

The irony.

From just headphone use? No, disagreed. From loud music? I used it as an example, I don’t listen to loud music constantly as much anymore. You can’t avoid Tinnitus because even if you didn’t listen to loud music all of the time, being surrounded by loud noise in general will eventually get you there. I work in a store where people slam pallets down (for no stupid reason), screech pallet jacks, have noisy pallet jacks in general, ladder carts squeal and screech. We’re not allowed to protect our ears because “CONSOOMER FIRST” priority.

Plus, where I live, people slam their doors around, they holler, babies and kids throwing fits. Yeah, it doesn’t matter if I listen to loud music or not, I will develop Tinnitus because of the environments. It’s an environment thing.

If Trump was dead serious on immigration, he would’ve challenged and sent Musk packing. But Trump’s idea of tackling the immigration issue is in the same vein as tackling anyone else he don’t like. So he would delightfully target AOC and get rid of her at any chance.

I’m not buying it that it is headphone-related. I wear headphones nearly all of the time, I’ve listened to music loudly for years on end, I’ve had to deal with loud screeches, loud noise wherever I go, lived and worked.

It is totally an environmental thing. Plus, the article had already wrapped up what the problem was and a normal hearing test came back negative.

But they haaaaaad to find a reason in the next line. Just had to.

32% and within a month? Terrifying.

No, not the guy you appointed to have lead the department. Definitely not at fault.

So what phase are we in now anyways? Are we in the self-denial and lying phase? We got the nazism out of the way, we got the dismantling of minority groups out of the way. So now we’re just being pathological liars.

Ah shut up, you republicans love him. This is what you wanted. You either go all the way or go all the way. No half-assing.

Everything ancient civilization didn’t have.

This isn’t Reddit. Karma points would matter if it was reddit because they stupidly make it where the less points you got, the harder it’ll be to post anywhere. That isn’t a thing on the fediverse, you can have -1000 and still post.

It’s just a stupid internet toy.

When you eat something so perfectly good.

Yeah, sure, whatever.

For me in a way, yes. When I used to read books on a regular basis, I found it more easier to digest if I had nobody or nothing around to make noise. I can deal with small noises like random cracks or a pop here and there. Long as it wasn’t amplified or anything. When I listen to things such as music or take in sound in general, my mind goes everywhere and it can’t focus on the pages of a book.

I always hated it when people try talking to me when louder noise is present and expect me to hear them perfectly. My mind is not focusing on your words, it’s focusing on that obnoxious noise that’s disrupting things.

But according to some of the mods here in the fediverse, you’re AdVoCaTiNg violence as if there is somehow a magical whimsical answer there to solve all of the world’s problems. /s

I am still waiting by the way, for anyone to tell me what is there left to really do to try and tell the most powerful classes in society, to convince them to stop their bullshit. So far, I’ve heard none.

Yes I will blame voters still.

Look, there is no excuse for anyone to not know whether or not they’re being lied to. They had ALL YEAR if not FOUR YEARS to know and work in ways to prevent a Republican take-over. And you know what? They failed themselves once again in catastrophic fashion.

You don’t really know how elections work, apparently.
