They’re dying in a lot of places. Malls still exist, but with the rise of online shopping, they’re not worth putting in all the bells and whistles anymore. My local mall pretty sterile and dull. :(

Do we have the same personality? Because I don’t see why it would escalate to murder. I don’t like violence.

I think most likely is we’d take turns going to work, and one of us would always get to stay home and procrastinate on chores. For some people that probably wouldn’t work as the duplicate would point out they have no obligation to their original, but I have a million siblings so an obsession with fairness has been hard-coded into my brain. We would work the exact same amount of hours and split all our sweets perfectly evenly.

I think the big downside is that I’d probably have to stop going to the gym. Alternating days would effectively halve my progress, and I’m not buying twice as much protein power.

Not even the worst but I’m amazed that a company exists that actually calls themselves Banana Republic and consumers were like, yes, this is good

I’m on team OP with this one. My nails are too short and 50% of the time I get a can that doesn’t play nice.

Either way I use a non-electric can opener since it’s quiet. My cat recognizes the sound of these things.

Oh hey, I appreciate the info! Seems I misremembered. I actually attempted to double check before posting but kept getting wildly different numbers from different sources.

I heard a lot of “you survived the first time, it’s fine,” when he got reelected. Ah yes, that pandemic we all survived. The constant food recalls where none of us got sick. The uptick in gun violence that made all of us so safe and cozy. Not to mention the famously survivable ectopic pregnancies!

No big deal indeed.

Visiting a buddy’s crossfit gym. He’s since left that gym so I imagine I’ll never jump again.

Listen to that ick!! That’s the part of you that knows your worth

You don’t genuinely like him, you’re just lonely. Plus, he doesn’t respect you at all, or his previous girlfriend. He won’t treat you right, but let’s be honest, even if he was the greatest man in the world, you’re not actually into him.

It sounds like you’re having a really hard time and you just want some tenderness and support, but you won’t get it from a misogynist.

Keep him blocked, and take care of yourself.

Not too sure about gringo but I know yankee is correct, I hear that one a lot from folks I know in the UK.

There’s some weird linguistic drift where in the southern US, we call northerners yankees, even though in the rest of the world we’re all yankees. Now I’m curious how that started.

Everyone’s saying bots but I think some of it is human-generated ragebait. Like that person who posted twice like “why did my friend block me” with screenshots of them devolving into crytyping as they tell said friend how stupid they are for being autistic.

(I took that bait, don’t judge, it was cathartic 😔)

As for why, I couldn’t tell you. Maybe they’re not getting enough engagement on Reddit anymore or maybe it’s not fun because Reddit already hates autistic people and will side with them. Who knows.

I’ve never seen anyone win an argument. What would that even look like? What’s the goal?
