I will literally never get sick of art that successfully blends horror and beauty.

I'd definitely eat that! Though, I prefer them with peanut butter and dark chocolate chips (the latter is from the freezer for added crunch)

That's awesome to hear, but I'm sure it'll be unaffordable for many—if not most—people who need it... at least in the US. :(

Idk... a good therapist can do a lot of good. But I can't in good faith blame you for having that perspective.

There are some really shitty ones out there, and then there are the ones that seem to try, but just aren't very good. I've experienced both myself.

I'd argue that it's dumb as fuck either way.

I'm like this, but tbh I don't like that about myself. I just find group chats stressful and very socially draining.

Why limit it to just food?

It's definitely worth it; it's a very unique experience that I really wish I could play for the first time again.

I strongly suggest going in as blindly as possible.

That's fair. I definitely felt frustrated at times, especially at the beginning of each act, but by the time I finished the game, I was obsessed and

spoilerplayed enough of the post-game roguelike to unlock—and beat Leshy with—all of the decks.

tbh, I'm not even really much of a card game person; I probably wouldn't've played it at all if not for the fact that my SO begged me to try it.

For the most part, women aren't saying that all men are dangerous.

We're saying that a significant percentage of them are—as established by the fact that the majority of women have experienced sexual harassment and/or assault at least once—and that "bad" men and "good" men are often indistinguishable from each other... for the first few minutes, hours, days, months, or even years of knowing them.

And then there are the many men who may not actively harass or assault women, but look away and remain silent when they witness their friends doing it. Those men are unsafe, too.

Anyone who perceives this hypothetical situation as "sexist" is not bothering to actually listen to what women are saying, which tracks. Hit dogs holler.

Honestly, I'd respond positively. Small talk is exhausting

You're missing the point by a mile. It's not about physical attraction, finances, or even the types of men just looking for a one-night stand. There are many men who want to be in long-term relationships, but don't put in the effort necessary to keep that relationship alive and healthy.

Men benefit from long-term relationshipsbmore than women; a woman's workload actually increases because she's usually the one tasked with managing the home and all of the emotional and physical labor that comes with that... even when she already has a full-time job.

In order for a woman to want to be with a man, he needs to positively affect her life overall. So many men simply do not do that. That is the barrier to entry, and it is far from an unreasonable one. It's generally easier and more desirable to be single than it is to be in a relationship with a man.

 
 
 

Personally, most of my life has been both difficult and unpleasant due to mental health issues (and capitalism), so I'm just proud of myself for still being here.
