So much this. Why does every darn movie need some romantic subplot? This crap is everywhere. It’s like heterosexuals can’t imagine a goid story being possible without cramming some random love couple in. Why?? Why was random romance needed?

A disproportionate number of songs that are total bangers otherwise are also all the same topics on repeat. Soulmate love song, upset breakup love song. Do they not know there’s more things they could sing about?

It’s a meme now. Give it a few years and it’ll be more than a meme.

Could be the thing going on with the first trans woman in… congress? I think? And some right wing lady also in congress(?) calling for a bill or something forcing trans people to use their birth sex bathroom in the house.

… I am new to political crap I probably have a bunch of terms and stuff mixed up but basically first trans woman US government official is being bullied by Republican woman government official that “mEn sHouLdnT bE iN wOmaNs BatHroOms!”

From what I’ve learned, there is a difference when used as an actual apology.

“I’m sorry” (on its own, without being followed by “you feel that way”) is genuine and tells that the speaker is honestly so.

“I apologize” is formal and kind of fake. They’re likely more sorry they were called out rather than sorry for what they were called out for.

What cruel minds brought that toilet setup into existence.

For even more fun: agree. Then elaborate. Lean right on into the insult, flip it into a good thing, or a ‘oh thanks for pointing that out, I’ll reflect on that’ depending on the tupe of insult.

It’s amazing how MAD trolls get when you remain calm and treat ad homenim as either a compliment or means to self-reflect.

Watching them try more and more insults, getting angrier and angrier, until they just give up. It brings me joy!

Al Gore’s loss happened when I was in high school. I couldn’t (or if I could I didn’t know I could) vote at that time, but I distinctly remember hoping for Gore even though I thought Bush had a cooler name (Middle school. Priorities were not great lol)

This is the first I’ve heard about WHY Gore lost. Never looked it up.

So thank you for the small history lesson.
