I have an office job, but I work with a lot of tradies.

A ute with no mud on it. Either it’s brand new, or they have no idea what the point of a ute is, so they bought an overpriced car which is worse for them than an average station wagon

Or if you know a farmer, a paddock is also a good option

Mods should be an improvement on a good game, not a fix on a bad one

Hard disagree. I can’t think of anything less short signed or selfish than raising a generation to be better than the previous

For sure. I’m getting married in about 6 months, and we’ve already agreed we want to have kids, but that we don’t want them right away.

Tabletop/party games? How big is the group? I could probably recommend half a dozen games for any group size up to 20

Honestly, princess bride. I’m usually not all that into rom com type movies, but princess bride is a masterpiece

Usually only if there’s something good as part of the credits (eg. Portal 1 & 2)

I’m just saying I wouldn’t mind hearing what Jeffery epstien would say over the clean air act

Not what I’m saying. My point is that one flaw, even one as terrible as pedophilia, doesn’t influence all of a person’s opinions. Sure, I wouldn’t ask Gandhi for his views on healthy relationships, and having learned about this I have lost pretty much all respect for him as a person. But his opinions on international politics should be reasonable because of his role as a leader of a protest movement, and likely aren’t impacted by him being a pedo.

With your Epstien example, is there reason to think his opinions on climate science are more well informed than the average person’s? Do you think his role of running his pedo island would impact his views on topics like the clean air act?

The trouble with your line of thinking is that we’d run out of acceptable people’s opinions really quickly. No one is perfect, and it will usually be possible to frame someone’s flaws in a way that makes them a horrible person in all aspects and never worth hearing out. When it gets to “Bob is a racist, Jim is a pedo, Fred is a domestic abuser” (to be clear, in not saying these are equally bad or anything, just some examples of ‘this person is inherently bad because of one thing’) and so on about everyone, who’s left to be worth discussing things with?

the dude was a pedo

How is that related to his opinions on international politics? Just because someone is terrible in one aspect of their life, doesn’t mean the rest of their ideas have to be thrown out.

No rolls barred on YouTube did a video on hard mode pictionary. You could use some of those ideas.

Two languages. English and Maori.

Thank you in Maori is “kia ora” (key-ah or-ah, but mostly said more like k-your-ah). Literally translates to “be well”, kia meaning be, ora meaning life/wellness.

Please in Maori is a bit less clear. There is the word “koa” (I don’t know how to phonetically write it, but all the letters are pronounced the same as above), but that’s a concept that came with pakeha (European settlers). Before that, it was more about the tone of the request.

Edit: actually I do know more, but English and Maori are the two main languages I know any of.

While I can see where they’re coming from. I’m sure they want you to just be safe.

That said, it’s a terrible idea. How will anyone know how many people hate the current government, if no one speaks up about it. Sure, it can be risky, and the governments most worth speaking up against are usually the ones where it’s the most dangerous, but they’re usually the ones that more people hate.

There’s also the “0.25 × 4” thing. ε is set to 0.25, and φ is set to 4. No nuance, no thought about how the economy actually works. Just make it so they can pretend they’re thinking about it how demand will change.

Ah yes, because the eastern front never happened

I see no issue here. A man can absolutely be ‘cute’ without being any less of a man. Masculinity isn’t about rugged looks, strength, dominance, or any of that shit. It’s about self confidence (not arrogance, just being comfortable being yourself) and giving to others, both of which you seem to do well.

Honestly, I’m surprised you haven’t found a partner to match you yet.

If “getting rid of the USA” is all you think the is to life, might I suggest getting one?

There are four options for American voters: vote red, vote blue, vote third party, or don’t vote at all.

Voting red is just bad. I highly doubt that the Gaza situation would get any better if Trump gets in, but I know for a fact that a lot of things will get much worse.

Voting third party is a wasted effort. Sure, every sane person would prefer different people to run America, but the the shit fptp system means they’ll never get any traction. In another election voting third party could be worth it, since a third party might slowly get more support, but not this one.

Not voting is just pointless. That’s just choosing to not impact anything.

That only leaves voting blue. It’s not great, but it’s the only option left.

NYEH HEH HEH!!!
