Girls next to me at this Japanese restaurant just said “this pasta is so Italian it’s like it was made by ratatouille!” First of all his name is Remy. Second of all he’s fucking French
@RedWavePress I mean apparently he’s trying to get a psychedelic called ibogaine legalized, not many republicans want more drugs around. So I’d say he’s independent but willing to be bribed for his support maybe? Strange that in just under 28 years I’ve never heard of ibogaine either until now
@yjsali@DramaAlert Just saw another post about this, apparently it was just a hard slap. I’m saying they might’ve both been punished if he did retaliate
@yjsali@DramaAlert Think of it like this. They’re pro gamers. The guy who suckered him could’ve broken his hand if he hit the wrong spot bare knuckle. Guy probably doesn’t care to fight and risk his gaming career as well. That dude just lost his prime over some temporary emotions
@tc_frogman@Julie6475671932@TheMeenaShmeena@Bricktop_NAFO@realDonaldTrump That’s ironic. He’s only guilty when you agree he’s guilty then? If it’s innocent until proven guilty, he’s been proven guilty. Trump did SA her but you’re looking for excuses to minimize the president being abusive and predatory.
During a concert, Alice In Chains spotted a man in the crowd making Nazi salutes. Layne Staley invited him onstage, then immediately punched him twice and had him thrown out.
@lowkeyalbert Real maturity is choosing a girl whose behavior you actually trust and can live with. If you feel like you need to police her, you are in the wrong relationship.
@berealforchange@IAmPoliticsGirl She had all the room necessary to get out without injuring a single officer. Fleeing isn’t means for lethal force. Even here in Arizona I had a coworker who was a murderer in self defense that fled the state. They shot out his windows w/rubber buckshot and pit maneuvered him.
this is such a cooked way to think about relationships
if your male “friend” is continually trying to get with you despite your clear lack of interest, he sucks generally & isn’t your friend, but
1) if you, as a woman, are regularly leaving your male acquaintances with the impression that maybe one day you’ll sleep with them even though it’s absolutely never gonna happen, you’re not regulating the energy you give off. you can easily make it clear up front that this is not your vibe & let them filter themselves out quickly before they become your “friend”
2) if he’s never made a move, he’s just got a passive interest, curiosity, or hope that under the right circumstances something might happen between you, if he cares about you and you enjoy being around him in general, he’s simply being open to a friends-to-lovers arc. this is how most people met their partners a generation ago. there’s nothing insidious about this, even if it surprises you that you’re a “would” to him
3) if a guy is genuinely crazy about you and you don’t reciprocate his interest, it might just be too difficult for him to downgrade that intense crush to a friendship. this is rare, but he’s not seeing you as a sexual object — unrequited love is way more consuming than that, he might see a whole life with you that you don’t want bc he appreciates who you are in total. if every sweet moment gives him unfounded hope, the only way forward is to get some distance. it’s tough to lose a friend this way but just take it as a compliment and have some grace about it please, he’s got little control over this, we don’t choose who we love. maybe after some time you can be friends, but you need space first
4) if you’re constantly surrounded by guys who only hang out with you bc they wanna fuck you (which is totally different than #3), and they lose interest in you entirely, or get angry and mean when you explicitly reject them, your radar wrt male “friends” is hella off. most guys are not like this. find ones who actually care about you. it is cope to say this isn’t possible
5) most people are friends with people they’re a little bit attracted to, bc attraction is as emotional & intellectual as it is physical, and we all like pretty people. this is entirely fine.
you can even flirt with your friends without derailing the friendship if you’re both mature, honest, and self-disciplined enough not to take it somewhere you won’t recover from (and what that line is depends on both of you). And if you’re flirting for validation & leave boundaries ambiguous, you can’t be shockedpikachu when some of them think they have a chance and are hurt when it turns out they never did
