I know I'm in the wrong for missing her text
You are not.

Your partner has some issues she seems to need to work through. Entertaining her delusions probably won't help her.
It's also the fault of neoliberal governments around the world for actively looking down on middle class people for not caring as much about the climate, refugees and other matters that you can care about when you actually have enough money to have the time to care about those things.
I think a quick look overseas will show you it's migrants, the queer community, women, and to a certain extent any intellectual. Now where have I seen this before.
It seems like "what are you going to do, fire me" is an adequate response, since they would be doing themselves more harm than good
Lol, have you been following the news much?
They're just too busy doing other stuff instead of screaming into a camera and uploading it on YouTube.
That's exactly the problem I'm trying to highlight
The right has a fuckload, Jordan Peterson to Tate, Joe Rogan and Ben Shapiro and those are probably just the ones I've seen on the right as a lefty.
I could name a single left wing person that's trying to teach men how to be good humans. Because as you said, men also suffer under the patriarchy.
I'm not surprised by the male/female gap. The past decade, young men have been told that white men are the worst thing to be. The left has not provided any role models for young men.
The right has many.
I'd say yes. Because it is.
My wife has colitis and dairy fucks her up 😮
Can you drink tea?
Nice. I'm getting snipped this week at 37. I felt comfort in keeping that door slightly ajar, but recently a lot of my friends having kids really pushed me over the line.
Getting snipped this week!
Looks like someone tried to go for an industrial look but didn't get it quite right
If others are in a bus there's more space for you.
Except nearly half of the people impacted didn't vote leave...
Maybe lefties boycotting Tesla will cause MAGAs to go electric... Silver lining?
Yeah Quetiapine knocks me out. I'm unsure how people who take it for psychoses can take that at ten times the dose and function.
What's a good and non patronising way to help my neighbour out
My neighbour has a cat called Stevie. Stevie hangs out with us a lot and we look after him when my neighbour is away.
Yesterday we found Stevie very unwell in our garden. We took him to the neighbour and she immediately rushed him to the vet.
She mentioned the vet was 200 dollars which was a big unexpected expense for her. Her son's birthday is on Monday and she won't be able to do anything for his birthday now.
My wife and I are fortunate enough for 200 dollars to not be a lot of money for us and we want to help, but I'm unsure how.
One option would be that we leave her a little card with 100 dollars and write that we wanted to help because we care about Stevie too.
Another idea is we ask her to do some gardening for us (that's her job, and we're too busy to do it ourselves right now).
I don't want her to feel patronised or awkward about any of this... Happy to take insights.
We finally get bike lanes on Great North Road
Auckland Transport has approved a controversial street upgrade in Grey Lynn.
I literally can not wait for this. Cycling there is so awful.
Suck a shame they don't do a town centre upgrade. The Grey Lynn shops could use some love.
The horrendous price of campervan rentals
First of all I'm not a tourist coming here to complain about NZ!
But I have some friends from overseas visiting, and holy heck how do people afford to come to holiday here... 12k for a motorhome for three weeks! And that's excluding insurance.
With the price of a new motorhome, surely they're making obscene profits on these?
Biden calls Xi a dictator a day after Beijing talks
The US leader makes the remark just after talks aimed at easing tensions between the countries.

Went her as a side trip on the Rees Dart track from Queenstown. It was a pretty grueling ascent from the hut, climbing almost 1000 metres on scree and rocks. The 18 km round trip took us quite a while!
This hike (5 days total) was absolutely stunning.
Dozens of migrant workers are being exploited by Queenstown employers who are not meeting the minimum conditions required by their visas, the Queenstown Citizens Advice Bureau says.
Health officials said it was an important step in reducing historical health inequities.
How do I tell my neighbours the windows in their bathroom are not frosted enough?
Neighbours recently had their home remodelled, which involved them putting new glazing in their bathroom. The glass is not frosted enough and there's a lot to see.
They are large windows too, starting at knee hight. How do I bring this up?
