Some replies:

She was only 18

Remember that women under 25 are still minors

Why are zoomers so sensitive about this subject?

Raise the age of consent to 40

This I can get behind

You'd think the replies are reasonable until you dig deeper and see this guy

I'm 27 dating 19

Getting called a libertarian lol

Zoomers of reddit also can't comprehend this

But obviously if you sort by controversial you'll find gems about muh le power imbalance or saying they're middle schoolers (???)

I knew deep down, when he would never give me a response when I have tried engaging him in discussions about women's rights and everything else Trump and his cult have done, that he felt this way. How can he think this, after everything I've talked to him about with abortion bans (we have young girls), Trump's stance on climate change, Project 2025, etc.

I wish I were financially independent. I made the idiotic mistake of taking a break on my career. I work part-time and can work more next year.

I really want out. I just don't know how

From the comments:

I made a similar post yesterday and just spent an hour in my therapist's office crying because it's finally hitting me that my husband, my partner, would rather support Nazis than put his pride aside for one fricking second and admit he was wrong. And now I have to draw a line in the sand, because NAZIS, and he has forced me into this position where I either have to divorce him, or knowingly stay married to a Nazi sympathizer. And quite frankly I hate him for it

"I don't know, Trump really doesn't seem that bad"

"My therapist that I spend your money on agrees with me! You're literally at Nazi!"

I'm sorry for you and your girls. They will know their father stood by while their rights were decimated and he will have to live with that. Not that any of these men are capable of self reflection.

Most sane BreakingMom poster.

This election proved just how much men hate women. I'm not surprised at all, but I'm still a bit disappointed

i'm so sorry. men are so stubborn and entitled. they'd rather be a fascist than be proved wrong. i hope that in time he comes to his own conclusion that trump is absolutely evil and equally i hope that you find financial freedom soon. ❤️

"ur a fascist if you don't agree with me"

Solidarity. I can't leave right now either. I've really had my eyes opened by his viewpoint the last few days. I can't even talk to him about politics without it becoming a screaming match. He constant asks for sources and "where did you see that at? You're only seeing one side and well at my work women this and women that...

Trump is a Nazi!

: Source!? Do you have a SOURCE for that?!?

You're all about women's rights but what actually have they taken away from you that changes your day to day life" oh he also is a freakin racist. He 100% proved that on MLK day by saying "oh it's (person who assassinated MLK day)" and I was like WHAT? He goes, "what you never heard it called that before? Everyone I know calls it that" I was dumbfounded. I was like why because you're a racist who is surrounded by other racists??? What the heckkkkk.

We have a daughter. I just can't do this for the next 4 years and who only knows how long after. I start therapy soon. I feel like the world is going to heck and I don't know what to do about it. I'm so scared for my child.

I'd only been talking to this girl for like a day, she asked me about my weekend. For context, my week before had been super busy so I wasn't looking to do a ton of social activities last weekend just a nice, chill couple of days. I clearly cracked a joke about the fact that it was kind of a boring weekend, but I never expected her to reply like this

Reddit is split on whether she is being ironically edgy or whether she really wants him to end his own life.

The downward spiral keeps going, yet another CT sub has fallen. 😭 Cumboys and cumgirls are the most persecuted people on reddit. Nick leaves, and now reddit kicks us off again. Dark times.

Many NSFW subs recently got banned for being "unmoderated" actually like /r/drugs. reddit sucks butt.

No idea what I'm expecting here in terms of advice tbh.

I was involved with a man who I regarded as my soulmate, things were looking serious. We talked about marriage and the future.

He was from a Muslim background in the Middle East. I'd always been interested in his religion (Islam) and had been studying it. After a couple of years with him, I took the step of converting. Everyone in my family and friends were supportive as they knew it was my choice. There was never any pressure from him.

After converting, we scaled back on the physical side of things and both said it would be best to get married. I was all for this, loved him to bits and wanted my life with him and believed he felt the time.

Unfortunately, his parents back home in his native country had other ideas and wanted an arranged marriage to someone of their choice... After months of trying to make them see reason, he wasn't strong enough to stand by me. So I ended our relationship as I could see it was going to end in tears.

I feel so alone in Islam now. I live in a small semi rural area with no mosque, no community to speak of and I've been shying away from wanting to move on. I feel at a crossroads. There's no chance of meeting a Muslim man here. I feel so lost without him, although I feel ending it with him was the right thing to do as he'd never go against his parents' wishes. Even though he was almost 30 and well-educated.

I'm no so much looking for a husband.. It will take me a long time to get over losing him. He was the first man I ever really loved and imagined a life with. I'm just feeling a bit isolated in terms of being "the only Muslim in the village" so to speak. It's a small and very "white", middle-class community. My ex and I met at uni in a big city, where it's more common to see other Muslims and different nationalities.

I'm feeling so many different things, feel like he's thrown me under the bus. I made so much effort and sacrifice for him, changed my whole way of life and even aspects of my diet and appearance. Yet he couldn't even just stand up for me (with his parents) when it mattered. He claimed to be in love with me (I was his first), yet didn't feel able to have any firm discussion with his parents about marrying me and going through with it.

I feel that being Muslim, this would put non-Muslim men totally off me. Especially with all the negativity around the religion in the media and so on. I don't even have anyone to do Ramadan with, or even talk about the religion.

tfw only muslim in the village

also he absolutely knew he was eventually going to marry someone else, but as she said, they were engaging in the 'physical side of things' and moids will be moids if you let them do that

/r/sanantonio recently had this discussion and I have some takeaways I want to share with you. Less about restaurants per se but the sentiment applies.Buccees owners are hardcore Paxton / Abbott supporters/donors.Pluckers owners drank the trump coolaid too.Heb does donate to republicans, though it seems it's more just because that's who's in charge - they've donated to more moderate, non-school vouchers ones and this has drawn Abbott's disapproval.Check out the "goods unite us" website to see what corporation funds what candidate and political party. Less local more national honestly but still. I've been looking at it and some egregiously conservative (like funding politicians vehemently against roe) include Home Depot, Valero, and Chick-fil-A.

Angriest Comments

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Oh dear. Yeah, I don't know where "our" forum is but it isn't here! I sort of think nowhere, since the election proved that Americans will cut off their nose to spite their face. And AS A WOMAN, I'm pissed at the women who gave their vote to that male feminist, misogynistic, criminal, lying, boil on the butt of humanity the reigns. Frick. I'm so sick of no one else standing up and saying that we are hurtling at light speed towards a dystopian society and people just put the thumb up their butt, or actually, they keep them on their phones and believe allll the fricking bullshit that Trump and his allies claim.Aaaaanyway just wanted to say you sure jumped in with your first post 😂 buckle up!

Tilman Fertitta, Trump's ambassador to Italy, owns:Mastro's Steakhouse and Ocean Club, Morton's The Steakhouse, Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steakhouse, Del Frisco's Grille, The Oceanaire, Vic & Anthony's, Brenner's Steakhouse, Grotto, Atlantic Grill, La Griglia and Willie G's, Chart House, Landry's Seafood House, Rainforest Cafe, Saltgrass Steak House, Bubba Gump Shrimp Company, Mitchell's Fish Market, Dos Caminos, Bill's Bar & Burger, Joe's Crab Shack and McCormick & Schmick's, Portland City Grill, Kincaid's, Simon and Seaford's, and Henry's Tavern. This is a partial list. (2203)

Landrys is the worst company i ever worked for. And they are also horrible at business. When they took over BRGuest in NYC their goons (I refuse to call them anything but that) came in and changed everything. For the worse. They told me to fire 40% of my staff and if I couldn't find a reason to I was not doing my job. They ignored the Donn doff law and had signs at terminals saying "do not clock in until fully in uniform" which is…illegal. They got rid of the time card adjustment signatures. Which is required in nyc. Any time you adjust a staffs time card they have to sign off on it. Very simple. Yes it was a huge restaurant and yes it took a lot of time to do 3 times a shift (people forgot to clock in, people for got to clock out for they break, etc…) but it's the law. They did away with it. It's a HUGE lawsuit. Every single employee can sue for incorrect hour reporting. It's usually a class action and lawyers make most of the money, but it's an easy slam dunk case for any law firm...

Angriness: 😡😡😡😡😡

Don't have a clue about who actually owns the company but I can tell you for sure that the family who owns the Jets Pizza stores north of Humble are hardcore crazy Trumpers. Worked there for a bit before quitting because the dad/owner went on a 45 min rant about how black people are the most terrible workers/they need to be "vetted way more" before going on another rant about how we're finally gonna get rid of all the ADHD & autism going around these days "once RFK gets in there" and gets rid of all the sugar in our food. They had a trans neurodivergent teenager working for them as a delivery driver too & I felt so bad for him because the owners talked soooooo much disgusting ignorant shit whenever he wasn't there. Not to mention the Trump/Vance "I'm voting for the outlaw & the hillbilly" sweatshirt the owner's son would come in wearing every day. I could go on but yeah they're definitely ones to avoid (6)

!g*mers laugh at Nvidia-cels a $2000 GPU still cant play cyberpunk at 4k 60 fps with gay tracing. Have fun paying $2000 for a DLSS software update.

Oh yeah remember this?

Total fricking lie by 4090 performance they mean 5070 can use 4x frame generation to have an equal framerate, but frame gen also increases the latency to like 60 ms meaning the game will play like utter dog shit despite looking smooth.

Its kinda funny how the cope went from "well 60 fps doesn't matter" to "well its 400 fps who cares if the game has 60 ms latency"

!fosstards !linuxchads Nvidia continues to suffer the curse of proprietary BS

Now normally when you think of franchising, you're adopting an already successful business format, right? What does Tiny Tim have to show on this front? 1 store, in Martinsville VA that has from what I understand never opened...

Here's the estimated initial financial breakdown to get your business started. There's also a contact form if Marsey McSneed is interested in exploring franchising.

sidenote

A few things about this- For similar costs or even less, you could be franchising with an actually successful, established brand like Starbucks/Dunkin. Included in this breakdown is $10-20k to fly out to Tim and be trained (by people that don't actually have a running store. 40k is also for just for the brand deal (again, it's a worthless brand with no name recognition, maybe try to get it going first Timmy) There's also things you're going to be acquiring independently that you'd think would be part of the franchise deal such as computer systems for inventory/transactions, and inventory from 3rd party suppliers, and marketing material. What's the point of franchising if you get no brand recognition, no marketing help, your inventory isn't from a simplified, centralized supply chain, ect? I really don't know, it sounds like you're doing all the work of setting up a real small business + Tim gets a cut + you're locked into his coffee brand in perpetuity.

Kiwi Farmers & Twittercels alike seem unimpressed by this "opportunity" that Tim had teased his audience with as a "big announcement".

These are some of the top replies on Tim's twitter anouncement

Kiwi Friends also are skeptical

2024 YR4 is an asteroid recently discovered by scientists in Chile (it's not the flying Tesla "asteroid", this one is legit). It is an "Apollo-type" near-Earth object that crosses our planet's orbit.

This week, scientists learned it had a 1.2%-1.6% chance of hitting Earth on 22 December 2032.

At a diameter of between 40 and 100 metres (130 and 330 ft), an impact with the ground could release approximately 8 megatons of destructive energy.

For reference, that is 533 times the bomb at Hiroshima and more than double the maximum yield of a US Navy Trident II ICMB.

All this places 2024 YR4 at a troubling 3 (out of 10) on the Torino Scale of impact hazards. It is the only non-0 threat, and the second highest ever recorded, exceeded only briefly in 2004 by 99942 Apophis before closer observations revealed that asteroid would not hit Earth.

So that is the bad news. Ready for the good news?

Calculations by NASA and the ESA show that 2024 YR4's "risk corridor" (where it would hit) doesn't pose a threat to anywhere important.
