In the US we also have places like Rent-A-Center that can be used for that. They tend to be quite predatory and usually target low income people to rent luxury goods they couldn’t normally afford, but I knew someone who’d rent their largest TV for a week for their Superbowl party, and it was a pretty good use for the service.

The worst part is that it’s not his relationship that he’s calling a “wonderful secret”, that was literally public knowledge for decades. It’s the child fucking he’s all giddy and “secretive” about

This is something that hit me like a ton of bricks after living abroad for a bit. It definitely made me think a lot about how much more pleasant things are when people are at least marginally considerate of others, and just how little some people seem to do it in the US.

Zap carry ftw

I’m going to guess that you probably aren’t part of one of the many groups he actively advocated for violence and hatred against.

I don’t celebrate his death, but that a man actively advocating for violence and hate against so many has been silenced.

Vance doesn’t seem the type to go down on someone.

Much like my racist family members bitching endlessly about Black Panther despite never watching any Marvel movies ever, I guarantee he saw “Get Out” in the top 10 and is livid that a movie with a largely black cast could be popular and well-liked.

Yup, it absolutely crushes them to not only think that someone would actively reject masculinity, but it also can trigger some serious issues questioning their sexuality when they’re attracted to a transwoman. It’s kind of a “Hurt itself in its confusion” moment because their internal crisis could be fixed by just saying “Yeah, I like women and she is a woman” but instead have this deep sense of self-hatred because they’re attracted to “a guy”.

It’s also part of the reason they really don’t give a shit about transmen. It’s understandable they’d want to want to be a man, because of course they would, being a man is awesome! They don’t have to question their sexuality, because even if they’re super masc, they’re still a woman, so they’re definitely not even a little gay.

Use they, unless you know their pronouns. Unfortunately, a lot of people use “they” because they don’t want to use the correct pronouns and it seems more innocent than just overtly misgendering someone.

They removed radar in 2021 for cost-cutting reasons and have never had LiDAR, which Elon called “a fool’s errand”.

Knowing the insanity of die-hard Tesla fans, it’s likely to try and protect himself.

“I love my Tesla, but” has been a meme for years now because if you ever went on forums to get help or complain what a giant heap of shit the car was, and didn’t bookend it with unabashed praise, you’d have people ripping you to shreds calling you a FUDster and Big Oil shill who’s shorting the stock and trying to destroy the greatest company the world has ever known.

People have learned over the years that even with the most valid of criticism for the company, the only way to even attempt to have it received is by showing just how much you actually love Tesla and Daddy Elon, and your complaints/criticism are only because you care so much about the company and want them to do better. Yes, it’s fucking stupid and annoying, but sadly this is the reality we’ve created for ourselves.

And why they completely ignore that trans men exist any time trans people come up.

At a buy-here-pay-here dealer that specializes in salvage title “luxury” cars.

The one thing I will add is that the soul searching isn’t always visible, which was what made it so hard for my family/friends to understand when I came out. To them, it seemed like a very sudden and “snap” decision, when the reality was that I had spent years at that point reflecting and doing soul searching, but was so terrified about what it meant and how they might see me, I never told anyone about it.

I definitely think that this dad did a solid job overall, and even as an adult transitioning in their late 20s, I would have loved this response vs how my parents handled it…

Bold to think they can read, and aren’t just ad-libbing whatever wet fart of a thought enters their head.

And Japan, and Canada, and Mexico, and the majority of South America, and a handful of countries in Africa and the Middle East.

The other problem is that they A.) Don’t understand how sex works, and B.) Couldn’t even manage to get their own stupid 6th grade biology definition correct.

The ADL is already fucking apologizing on his behalf and saying he was just being “Enthusiastic” and then went on to say “In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead,”

Absolutely spineless fucking cowards, the lot of them.

It’s almost always whatever you you threw out last week though.
