I worked with her older sister for a couple years, perfectly content being single. One day, randomly blurted out that I hated being single. Her sister asked me to describe what I wanted, I said a few things, and “You just described my sister! Let me introduce you.”

Apparently, she had already thought we would be perfect together. That was 16 years ago, and we’ve been married for almost 13. I could not ask for a more perfect person to have as my wife and dearest friend.

I thought he was trying to go somewhere with no extradition treaty with the US and was laid over in Russia when his passport was suspended. It’s kind of outlined here but I could see how that could be concocted and I just want to believe he was better than a Russia mole.

New fantasy unlocked

I know many toxic masculinity guys, I think it’s true. Eww.

I might be misunderstanding but I thought legislation was passed and signed to protect same sex marriage at a federal level? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/biden-set-sign-sex-marriage-bill-white-house-ceremony-rcna61423

Because cruelty is the point.

“When you make something idiot proof, the world builds a better idiot.” Lol

Comparison is the thief of happiness.

I have many favorites, but this comes to mind often.

Fear shrinks the brain.

Is another good one.

The whole shitness of that workplace was redeemed by this one single moment from my sister in law lol.

Am American, don’t know what this says

Not sure about this county but a lot seem to do this. Great idea for any that don’t already do it

I like that. Also, “if they want you to be afraid, they don’t want you to think.”

That’s really sweet!

“Nine-nine!”

This is the way

To be fair to you, 12 year olds are the worst. Source: was 12 year old

A couple things I value and a few childish superficial things.

I remember saying something like “why can’t I just meet a really kind, intelligent, kinda nerdy” then I forget, then “short, brown-haired girl?”

And my now-sister in law, “OMG that’s my sister!” Honestly, it feels like it was meant to be.

Wtf that’s so stupid

If there’s a cover up, this is the one that makes the most sense to me. It aligns with Occam’s Razor; it’s simple and understandable why it would be hidden. Edit: posted with more detail elsewhere in the thread: https://lemmy.world/comment/7523091

I’ve read about YouTube delaying video play, buffering, and showing a blank screen for X seconds on all videos for non-Chrome browsers.

The desktop crashes don’t sound like YouTube, but I think the rest is the genuine anti-competitive behavior Google has demonstrated. I get these 5-6 second video delays and page refreshes on Firefox and Safari periodically but never in Chrome.

In your face, space coyote!!

Same! The cross platform availability is what keeps me coming back.

I heard this comment

Financially, we are well enough to have my family’s needs met comfortably but frugally. Can’t really ask for more, though additional breathing room would be nice. We can afford emergencies and recover after some time.

My parents and grandparents taught frugality; luck made ends meet like a good job and buying a house at the right time.

We have a bit of savings I have in mutual funds because I’m currently too mentally tired and risk-averse to pick something with higher return potential.

Something about Twisted Metal 2… absolute top of that franchise

The Half Life, Portal, and Left 4 Dead series’s bring me nostalgia like no others. Unbelievably good games

Wholeheartedly agree

I also use a bunch and a head system that works. TickTick has been my go to for high importance tasks/reminders, then 3 more apps for various mental purposes.

Ah yeah I do agree with that. I was partially referencing the meme, but also there’s those kind of people who would inconsiderately take up others’ space until the airline made them move. There’s enough to be annoyed at both! :P

Minimum punishment for a sitting or former supreme court justice for any crime:

instant death.

I like you.

Yessss!! And when they had taquitos with the different dipping sauces!

i was looking for this quote in the thread haha. “Duke on!”

“I got it off a hair dryer.”

Wholeheartedly agree, best of all the new movies by far! Great time start to finish, added to the lore, and did homage to what came before.

Parks and Rec is gold, and Andy Samberg is a treasure

Unexpected Schitt’s Creek

Built-in step count is in the activity app! Just keep scrolling, it’s after the stand hours. Noticed it the other day, I think it’s easy to overlook.
