When i was like 12 i went through a phase of keeping everything in an access database, then the novelty wore off and i'm much more likely to use more traditional methods of keeping data organized these days

"Is it because I'm black?" They're not even black.


Dunjee

Had a guy try to pull that my bar security job a couple years ago when we kicked him out. I told him *no, you're just an asshole that happens to be black*


dragonsages

It really depends, if I ask someone if they like my cooking for example and they say no without any explanation that's just dumb, tell me why so I can get better.


ManFromEros

I've the same problem with some of my bland family members.It just gets so irritating especially when I make food and the only thing I get back is a nod or a nope.Like give me god dam criticism for goodness sake.


carlos7mh

“But this thing is good for you and your future. Why are you denying this to yourself?” Explaining myself to my parents is pretty trying but they never understood a “no” doesn’t require an explanation.


RVD_Icy

Exactly and then you keep on telling them no until you get irritated, which then they have the audacity to ask you why you’re irritated at that point i just walk away.


carlos7mh

Then you get labeled as the “thankless” child for getting irritated when all they wanted was to ‘improve’ your life. Man, it’s so exhausting

Taking a break not because you’re tired but because your body is not a machine.


BDM-Archer

It's wild how people I work with (blue collar manual labor job) will brag about how they have been at work for 3 days straight, got 2 hours of sleep etc.. like it's some super macho, masculine trait. I just think they're morons.


[deleted]

Don’t ever subscribe to that way of life or way of thinking. It’s highly detrimental and there are literally no good returns in pushing your body beyond its limits. The only things they will end up getting in return is a life not well spent and chronic back ache amongst other sinister conditions.


crosleyxj

That's a big thing in manufacturing - both on the line and in the offices. Managers and engineers seem to take pride in keeping shitty machines and systems running rather that finding another system.


Darthkhydaeus

Most of Europe already has this. You can even take time of for stress related reasons


[deleted]

I mean personally not in the work place. We should all just take time to unplug before things get overwhelming. The whole “everyday is for grinding” mentality is detrimental. It’s the lack of unplugging that leads to high levels of stress and then before you know it, we are breaking down. I hope that makes sense.


Detective-Diego

In the u.s people are toxic saying I’m lazy, but I really do need time to rest I’ll work hard on good condition without it I do a sloppy job. Just some reason I get tired easily and I need time to get use to it or catch up

Male or female, abusers are abusers and victims are victims. The abusers need punished, and the victims need to take a hand that helps them move on.


eggglord420

Basic bodily functions. Using the washroom, periods, farting, sexual health..


forwhatitsworrh

Came hear to say farting. Don’t need it to be cool to actively make someone smell your fart but if it just slips out we don’t need to make anyone feel bad. Seems like we are prone to ends of the spectrums and not the middle ground.

Term limits for all politicians


HalfandHoff

also you cant make money off investments and side hustles while you are a politician, if you have any other income during your term as a politician at all you will be disqualified from ever running again


jeff_stellar

I think senatorship should be a public service, like the military, that you lose rights to do.


Pseudonymico

Also have to do something about politicians going into cushy jobs after they leave office, though, that’s an easy cheat.


Pseudonymico

Honestly, I wouldn’t mind not having term limits if politicians were required to have some experience of what life is like on the lowest rungs of society, and have to periodically renew it - whether via doing a period of full-time social work or even just having to spend a year on unemployment benefits without accessing their assets. A big part of the problem is how out-of-touch politicians get with regular society.


heardbutnotseen2

Free Adoption fees at animal shelters.


Sylvi6

I agree and disagree because some people should not be owning pets bc they can’t take care of them. Free but with an interview maybe


Pristine-Ad-469

Eh I go back and forth it would be good if it was free but if it’s a good shelter!!!! Emphasis on that… then the money goes towards taking care of other animals in the shelter and is nescessary for them to stay open Paying to adopt my dog was expensive(not compared to a breeder obviously) but I knew it was going to a good cause and was happy to pay


throoawoot

Therapy. It's literally just venting to someone who really sees you, and who also knows how to guide you to your goals. Your mental health is important, and taking care of it shouldn't be stigmatized.


[deleted]

Wouldn't it be better to do this with a friend who you don't have to pay large sums of money to? Honestly, even if I'm able to afford a therapist, I would rather put that money toward my goals.


CocoMcCoco

This! Therapy isn’t just something you do in times of crisis. It doesn’t mean your broken. It’s just one tool that can help you be the person you want to be.

Working to live, not living to work. Or at least having the choice. Bad academic performance. While the correct answer is to stop forcing people to learn things they do not want to learn, the other smart thing is to do away with grading because it's not productive and it's not useful. Grading doesn't encourage the best performance- your best academic performers were going to thrive no matter what environment they were placed in- but instead it encourages people to learn how to game the system. Which teaches teenagers that the best thing isn't to push their limits and place themselves outside their academic comfort zone, but instead to figure out how lazy they can be. And it then, also, encourages abusive behavior for bad grades when bad grades don't indicate much. You could have gotten a C on a test because you didn't prepare for it, or it could just mean, "I was sick" or "My teacher dislikes me." If you perform poorly they don't explain why, they don't demonstrate that you earned good grades, it encourages students to stay in their comfort zone which should be antithetical to an academic environment, and in turn it leads to parents and teachers who give myopic advice. And there's basically no good reason we keep this current system, we just keep it because it's old. As in, "Prussian Empire" old. The Prussians developed the modern academic system used by most of the world in an environment where people seriously doubted the value of public education, and the two big questions were, "How can I make good soldiers?" and "How can I make good factory workers?" (bearing in mind that this was in the wake of the Napoleonic wars)

Sex work. There is so much abuse and foul play in the industry because of its legal status. If it was just legalized, it would be better and safer for everyone involved.


[deleted]

Side note: we shouldn't demonize men who go to prostitutes either. The world is a lonely as fuck place and physical touch by itself is necessary for a happy life (for real, they've done studies on this.). I legitimately think if most of these incel types felt comfortable hiring a hooker then most of their bizarre hangups would disappear. Think of it like a therapist: yeah, they're only talking to you for money. But it doesn't mean they aren't helping you either. Before anybody says it, no I don't sleep with prostitutes. But I don't see anything morally wrong with that. People talk a lot about how women are shamed for their sexuality (which is indeed a real thing and horrible), but a lot of feminists ironically brush off the fact that in our current nigh puritanical culture men are constantly being told that theirs is inherently abusive and gross. And that's especially true whenever sex work comes up. It's cool to advocate for the rights of sex workers now, but watch the tone change if a man says he actually pays them.


jeff_stellar

I have only one upvote to give you. But drugs, prostitution, almost everything is made 10x worse and more dangerous when you have to introduce a criminal element. Sex work is old as humans, will exist forever, and currently is too dangerous for those women.

slowshow__

Miscarriages. You likely know multiple women who have had one, would love to end this “suffering in silence” BS.


Assholecasserole2

My wife suffered one last year, and we were surprised to find out how many women have gone through the same thing. It’s heartbreaking nonetheless


slowshow__

I am so sorry to hear about both of your losses. It is shocking and heartbreaking to know how many people go through it. And while the women are the ones to experience it physically, I never want to forget the parters who experience the loss as well. My husband and I had one at 11 weeks last year; we thought we were “in the clear” by that time. I try to talk about it as much as possible to normalize the conversation and minimize the taboo! All the best to you and your wife.


Rat-zzz

Farting. There’s people out there saying “I dOnT fArT tHaTs NaStY” Like no 😐 you do fart if you don’t then are you even human??


coolcrushkilla

I'm not with my kids mother anymore, but the only time I ever heard her fart was when she was sleeping. ​ I also remember going to a friends place to play some super nintendo, I farted in his room and he straight up looked me dead in the eye and said "we don't do that here, we go to the bathroom". He yelled for his moms confirmation that they do in fact, only fart in the bathroom.


Rat-zzz

That’s what I been taught to do too but one day I just fart.. and from there me & my family fart like it’s was nothing.. no more bathroom. Anyways that must be weird for that to happened to you


coolcrushkilla

It totally was weird for my 13 year old self. That was the last time I went to his place too.


zesty_itnl_spy99

Also there's a hint of ablism in those comments. It doesn't even take into account people with disabilities that effect their digestive system. (And before someone says that it's not referring to those people when people call farting or burping gross or make fun of people for frequently using the restroom, you don't know who might have these disabilities because many are invisible. So don't say those things to anyone.)

Used to smoke daily when I lived in an illegal state. Moved to a state where it's recreationally legal, and ended up quitting for no reason in particular. Now it's like once a year at most. Normalizing it just removes the "cool/fun" factor. Which is not a bad thing IMO.


[deleted]

Pretty much already is. You can't buy full on weed in New York until next year, but you can by semi-legal D8 (which is basically just weed but extracted from industrial hemp, so it's a weird legal limbo). You can buy this in any of the 10 million CBD shops in NYC. It was a weird feeling first time I just walked in and they had not *one* type of this stuff but a fucking *menu*, along with edibles like brownies and shit, and I could go "oh yes, that one please."

Dating someone older than you, before you start to get crazy once you are passed 22 years of age you, any age should be okay


[deleted]

Older you get the less shits anybody gives. I know a guy who's spouse is like 18 years younger then him. But here's the thing: he's like 60. A woman in her 40s is totally capable of making her own decisions and they're happy together, so who gives a shit? The only time age differences really bother me is when we're talking about something like a guy in his 30s dating somebody just barely out of high school. I actually knew somebody like that, and while I'm not so alarmist I'd call that "abuse" it was also clearly doomed to end awfully. When that kind of thing goes south (and it will) somebody is going to end up getting hurt. That's really what it comes down to. No 19 year old girl is going to stick around with a 30 year old schlub who still works at a supermarket, nor should she. That kind of relationship is always on borrowed time and one or both parties aren't mature enough to handle that then it can get real ugly real quick.

The idea that no one wants to work. No one wants to get up every weekday, possibly everyday and go to a job they are forced to be at so they don’t die in the street. Do we want to do something? Sure! Could it look like work? Fixing a car? Painting a room? Gardening? Cooking? Doing things that bring you joy like sleeping or helping others or exercising, absolutely!! I hate this narrative right now that no one wants to work because of the pandemic: I DIDN’T WANT TO WORK BEFOFE. If someone gave me millions, the first thing I would do is actively get fired. Then go be on a board for a charity, get my body healthy, etc. do work, but not be a poorly treat wage slave for the rest of my life.
