Star Whores is a masterpiece, don't disparage it

To be fair, a decent amount of presidents probably should have been indicted. Trump does take the cake on how directly connected he is to obvious crimes. He's definitely the dumbest in that regard.

The front shot & green screen baffles me. They did that in the first season of True Detective a few times with Matthew McConaughey's character. He's moving the wheel left and right and it's a fucking straight road in the background. One of the greatest seasons of TV, but those shots always take me out of it and make me laugh. Why did they think it looked good??

I'm a man who had to do this. My partner was going through some pretty rough times in grad school, then left school, and had a lot of mental health work to go through. I was trying to be supportive, but we had to have a few conversations where I said that I didn't find her exactly attractive in the moment because it felt like I was more of a guardian than a partner. It's gotten a lot better since then, but it can be hard when your partner is going through hard times (or is just lazy, in some cases) and doesn't see things as you do.

Everyone needs to put in effort. It doesn't need to be symmetrical (meaning you don't have to do all the same things), but it should be approximately equal in terms of effort in both the relationship and your living situation

On the one hand, I think when people are being scammed, there should be some recourse for them to recover their money.

But on the other hand, if you can't see through "cryptocurrency" + "Logan Paul" + "game", maybe you deserve to lose that money. I just wish it could be taken away from Logan Paul and donated to people who really need it.

Doesn't change the fact that if you agree to pay someone for their service, you must pay someone for their service. I guess being a deadbeat is different when you're purportedly worth billions of dollars.
