Don’t ruin the fantasy for me 😩

Wacky tobaccy… Though it’s not too common where I’m from

No more fucks to give :(

I love the Internet

I love getting stuff second hand. I’m able to get some premium goods that would otherwise rot, and I use the hell out of them.

It doesn’t always work if I have very specific needs, but it is always my first thought.

Supportive of others, even if he doesn’t quite understand them.

What would he do on his own? What would have you done on your own as a kid? If these answers are different, why?

How will negative consequences be handled, like he doesn’t pay rent, runs out of money for food, or he damages the apartment? What about really big ones, like he allows someone to stay over long enough that they become an established tenant, cause problems, and then don’t leave? In your jurisdiction, are there legal consequences for you if he breaks the law that you would not face if he were legally an adult?

Is there a plan for if he decides he wants to move back?

Do you foresee any legal consequences? For instance, if his school learns about this arrangement, will CPS or the police get involved? Is that something you can recover from?

In the right circumstances, I think this is a good idea. As a parent, your job is to prepare him for adulthood. Letting him live on his own, while meeting his needs (food, shelter, healthcare) with a safety net can work. A lot can make these the wrong circumstances. Only you can answer whether or not the circumstances are right in your situation.

Big talk from a guy that goes by a name that is different from his birth name.

I hear the opponents are spunky

We had a kid do this too. He supposedly ejaculated on the desk. They just called him “Jack off” after that.

His name was, say, Billy. This girl in my class that was pregnant was going to name her kid Billy before the incident. She chose another name after that.

This is glorious

Sounds like, when it comes to safety, your car really phoned it in

Aww warms my heart. Congrats!

Ten years ago? Maybe. Not regularly but as a treat. I might talk with the manager about my concerns. Might even take it to corporate if I’m still unhappy. If I still don’t like it, then I would just probably go without instead of exerting extra effort.

Now? No way. I’m so fed up with companies giving us less for more, I participate as little as I possibly can.

Hmmm…

I thought it meant dog piss, like dog dirt meaning dog shit. Well… I was wrong.

Old MacDonald had a farm…

I wish I had citations for this, but I seem to recall reading one of his books about preventing divorce. It could have been another god awful Christian couple book, though. I did read a few of his books.

If a hetero couple is married, and the man wants to leave his wife for another woman, the wife needs to just take it and do nice things for him in order to convince him to stay.

If he is not treating her right, she cannot outright say it. (If she makes him feel bad, it is her fault if he finds someone else!) No, instead she needs to lead him to good examples.

As a wife, a woman must cook delicious food. If she is a bad cook, she is a bad wife.

I don’t remember if it was in another book, but if a man disciplines his daughter too harshly, the wife should not stop him. Instead, she needs to talk to the daughter separately, try to make her feel better, and not make the dad look bad. Because if you stand up for your child, you are emasculating him or something. (Enabler much?)

The only positive thing I saw was him seeing bisexuals as distinct from homosexuals. Not that he had anything good to say about either, but… No bi erasure?

This dude really fucked me up as a youth, rest in piss.

She is partially right. Some women wear sexy clothes because they want attention and/or they feel pressured to, so they might wear them, even if they don’t like them.

Some women like the way they look and feel in sexy clothes, so they just wear them for themselves. It’s not necessarily for male (or any other gender’s of interest) attention.

In my experience, the former happens less. I’m not sure if it’s due to the crowd I hang out with changing or a gradual cultural shift.

Without: almost always when lounging around. With few exceptions, always when sleeping. Occasionally when I am going to the store and do not give any fucks.

With: if I am having a particularly bad upper back pain day. All formal and business events.

Now, if you asked me when my boobs were smaller, or before I found properly fitting bras, I’m sure my answers would be different. A garment that actually holds them up is a game changer. I have legitimately had headaches melt away with a brand new, well-fitting bra.
