Your first three could be considered factually correct but the last is pretty easily disproved. High heels make your legs stand more taught and generally makes you claves, thighs, and ass look better. Plus it's a general rule of thumb that humans like people who are tall. People will gladly trade inconvenience to improve their appearance and the fact that high heels have persisted seems to imply people think they look better in them

Here's an example of the same woman in various types of shoes and while this is a matter of opinion, I think she looks best in the block heels followed by the kitten heels:

5 frames of the same woman wearing in order: flats, kitten heels, block heels, platform shoes, and tennis shoes

If you disagree then you're in the correct place, but it's really less about the feet and more about the change in posture

This feels like a pretty arbitrary distinction to me. Marvel movies are basically animated films, Pokémon is the most profitable franchise on the planet spanning every form of media, and Avatar makes more money per movie than a lot of countries' gdp. I don't really know what this achievement is

Damn. Even with the crazy high heat you're basically parking the food right in the danger zone for bacteria growth. Mailbox lasagna: busted

This has been my problem since Google All Access died. I tried YouTube music out but it seems to be incapable segregating my videos I want to watch and the music I want to listen to, making both products worse. I tried Pandora which has the best "radio" but absolutely nothing natively supports it. As an android user I'm not using Apple Music so I'm stuck with Spotify

Spotify seems to care so much about curated playlists. They want you to see popular ones, they want you to see which ones your friends made, they want your household on one plan so you can "jam" together and I don't give a shit. My music tastes are not super contemporary and not very popular. I'm fine with that. However because I don't listen to playlists every station I listen to turns into the same songs in half an hour. No matter what I listen to Spotify seems to think that Rich Girl by Hall and Oates (a song I used to like quite a bit!) is a perfect follow up. Jimmy Buffet, Jamiroquai, Doja Cat, Cake, the Challengers soundtrack, a playlist of specifically women singers from the 90s. All have had fucking Hall and Oates pop up on autoplay

They very clearly are pushing you to use their social media features to get variety and it sucks

That's my point about civility. I think you can have the conversations, but almost every parent I know says that their children are their greatest achievement and that they are the best part of their life. You're inviting people in who fundamentally disagree with that and a lot of people take it pretty personally when you call the most important thing in their life a moral failure. I just don't imagine /c/parenting users come here to be lambasted and I doubt it's good for growing the community as well

As a child free person myself I don't think you want to invite that here. Not to say it'd be uncivil but some of our reasons for not having children will be inherently offensive to people here and I don't think it'd be good for the general vibe. Just an example, I'm not certain I'm going to live the rest of my life free of major strife (the global rise of fascism, climate change disasters, globe trotting plagues, etc) and I think it's morally irresponsible to bring a child into the world. Are those conversations that you want to have here or do you want to talk about the difficulties of raising kids, the surprising joys, and the unexpected milestones?

I agree with Iger that this probably will be the biggest MCU movie in a long time. However I'd argue that's in spite of the MCU not because of it. They're simultaneously cashing in on Deadpool hype and bringing the primary X-Man into the MCU. Obviously we don't know what direction it's going to to go in until the movie comes out but I have a hard time imagining that if it tries to merge into the "main" MCU world that it'd make sense tonally. If it fucks off into the weird "multiverse" stuff that Dr Strange, Loki, and Wanda seem to be doing I have to guess subsequent stuff will be more nothingburgers that people are apathetic about

I personally think people liked Deadpool being mostly it's own thing. I think keeping him only tangentially involved is going to be the key to success but I doubt Disney's ability to be restrained enough to do that

No, just that you're probably a degenerate. We all know strip clubs exist and people go to them, nobody was talking about that, you just immediately assumed that we were

Maybe let's chill on comparing people who don't want to be annoyed by babies on airplanes to nazis?

[-] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago

I think you're telling on yourself a little here. If someone says "adults only space" and you immediately go to strip club instead of bar, club, comedy clubs, lounges, etc. then maybe that's about you

If you're an adult who doesn't have or don't work around children it's hard to overstate how irritating they are. The noise, lack of self-awareness, the energy, the stickiness, and you have to censor yourself around them. Additionally, they're way harder to reason with (if they even can communicate) and parents are notoriously shitty and self-righteous. Finally adults have consequences. If an adult screams their head off, runs up and down the aisles, or hit people around them then flight attendants can do something

You also act like that child HAS to be on that plane. You can drive, you could leave the kid with someone else, you could take a train, a bus, or you could just not go. We know planes specifically are really uncomfortable for babies because of the pressure. You chose to have a kid presumably knowing that you'd be making sacrifices for them. Maybe one of those sacrifices should be flying until they're old enough to behave

When someone links to a community if you open the post and then follow the link it works fine. If you're browsing with cards and try to follow the link from the card without opening the actual post it attempts to open the link in a browser which fails because the link is not the full URL. It would be nice if clicking the link would take me to that community on that instance, which is what it does when you open the post and click the link
