  • Finally some flower buds on the pepper plants

    Jump

  • That's very impressive! It's cool they're flowering indoors!

  • My (F) partner (MtF) recently came out as trans. I'm not into women, how do I be polite?

    Jump

  • I might be late to the party here, but I just wanted to chime in that my former husband and I went through this. He (now she) came out as MtF. I am not straight (bi), but I married them in part because I was attracted to their masculinity, which was now going away. I no longer found myself physically attracted to them. We went to marriage counseling, but ultimately decided to divorce. It was very hard, but it was ultimately for the best, for both of us. We remain friends and talk almost every day and it's been 7 years since the divorce.

    If you truly love someone, you set them free.

  • Have a good trip

    Jump

  • As a woman, I've always been kinda jealous of a man's ability to just piss wherever, whenever. I mean, they do make these, but I've never used one because it kinda seems like you piss in there and it it'll just end up all over your entire yoni, which just sounds like a mess.

  • What is the "dip"?

    Jump

  • My parents let me watch this when it came out. I was 8. RIP cartoon shoe.

  • I use it on my phone for text messages, but I've realized that over the years, I'm starting to forget how to spell some words. I should probably stop using it to reprogram my brain.

  • What old technology are you surprised is still in use today?

    Jump

  • At my old government job, we had a fax machine because it "couldn't be hacked", so we would only accept certain documents via fax. Is this true? I have no idea. It was even more questionable when we switched the fax line to digital and received all the faxes via a software program on computers. Is THAT "un-hackable" too? No clue.

  • As women have far fewer babies, the U.S. and the world face unprecedented challenges

    Jump

  • As a woman, you couldn't PAY ME to have a baby, you NEVER could. You know that shit in A Handmaid's Tale where they send the women who are too old to have kids out to work the fields until they die? Sign me up, because I'd rather be dead than bring a child into this world that has gotten only more and more fucked up as I've been alive. I always say, I love *my *children so much that I refuse to give them life on Earth.

  • I like all of these except capers. I eat olives and pickles regularly.

  • How many of you microwave water for tea?

    Jump

  • We have a spigot in the kitchen that only puts out boiling-hot water, so I use that. If that's not working, I'd just boil it in a pan on the stove.

  • How to find custom Lego builds with instructions?

    Jump

  • Other random LEGO question: Is there any website that I can upload a picture of something to it, and it will create LEGO instructions/create a piece list for me? I'd really love to have/build a LEGO version of The Ark starship from The Transformers, but I don't think it exists.

  • Important question

    Jump

  • I love all of these, not gonna lie.

  • Does the "White Power Ranger" seem like an odd title?

    Jump

  • Wasn't the white power ranger the green power ranger first, or am I misremembering the story (it's been a while, sorry)?

  • What book(s) are you reading right now and recommend for others?

    Jump

  • Just finished the A Land Fit For Heroes trilogy by Richard K. Morgan and it was badass.

  • Seems like the perfect day to ask: Muricans, what's your dream country to expatriate to? Non-Muricans, what's the thought on accepting US refugees?

    Jump

  • Canada, Iceland, New Zealand, or Germany, in no particular order. Then again, of those 4, I've only been to Canada.

  • What's a really popular TV show you just couldn't get into?

    Jump

  • Totally. I enjoy the premise of the show, but the delivery is sleep-inducing.

  • Deleted

    What was your last dream about?

    Jump

  • I don't really believe dreams have meaning, but every so often I'll look something up that I dreamed about just to amuse myself and see what some would say it means, usually only if it's something very specific that was in the dream, like an animal or something.

  • What is something unexplained that you experienced?

    Jump

  • Was visiting Boston with an old friend and we walked past the Granary Burying Ground (a cemetery where many prominent American Revolutionary war figures are buried). As we're walking by I see a young girl in Colonial style dress walk out of one of the buildings carrying an armload of flowers and she starts placing one on each grave. I turned to my friend and asked her when they started doing reenactment stuff at this site, and she was like "What are you talking about?" I go to point to the girl and she's gone, no flowers on any of the graves at all. This happened in broad daylight.

  • Is there anywhere in the world that you visited previously that you'd like to return to if time and costs permit? Why?

    Jump

  • I'd like to go back to London. 3 days wasn't enough and there's still so much I want to see there.

  • How have your ideas, beliefs, and opinions changed over time? What idea, belief, or opinion have you recently changed?

    Jump

  • I used to think suicide was such a horrible, selfish thing to do and didn't understand how people couldn't just see that it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem, but I get it now.
