This is a very easy question to answer. I married a swiftie with roughly my politics.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE THE SAME TASTE AS YOUR PARTNER
It's great if there's overlap, so you can go to concerts and watch things together. But it's really fine that my wife is obsessed with The Circle on Netflix and I watch Star vs The Forces of Evil.
Sometimes we introduce each other to things that it turns out we both like! (Alone, Steven Universe)
Sometimes you just tell each other what's going on in your show/book and the other one is supportive (Selling Sunset, a Wuthering Heights reread(
Ymmv but this is way better than if I'd married a fash who also likes Burn Notice.
would you a marry a swiftie with the same politics as you or a fascist with the same taste in art as you
this website has elevated suicide bait to an immaculate artform perfected like no other culture in history
Atlanta Police are allowed to cover their faces on the job??
Among those arrested in Atlanta today were Noelle McAfee, Chair of the Philosophy Department at Emory University. You can hear her ask the PhD student taking the video:
“Can you call the Philosophy Department office and tell them I’ve been arrested?...I’m Noelle McAfee, I’m Chair of the Philosophy Department”
the idea that restrooms, locker rooms, etc need to be single-sex spaces in order for women to be safe is patriarchy's way of signalling to men & boys that society doesn't expect them to behave themselves around women. it is directly antifeminist. it would be antifeminist even if trans people did not exist. a feminist society would demand that women should be safe in all spaces even when there are men there.
because I was genuinely curious, I looked up how many babies were born in 1972 in the US. About 3.2 million. Assume about half were AFAB, so 1.6 million. Of those, 63,602 were named Jennifer.
Almost 4% of afab babies were named Jennifer that year, three times as many as the next most common name.
but 71,000 of the amab babies were named Michael.
in the 70s there were:
1 Michael 707,458 Jennifer 581,753
2 Christopher 475,526 Amy 268,996
3 Jason 462,821 Melissa 253,274
4 David 445,842 Michelle 249,138
5 James 444,823 Kimberly 229,106
out of 17,107,561 male births and 16,462,535 female births according to the social security administration.
If you wonder why names got weird for a while? THIS is why. GenX had like 20 names, total, for everyone.
This honestly depends on the humidity, and also what kind of activity is expected of me that day. For where I live and work and spend most of my time, I would like it to top out at 90°F. If it's not over 80, I don't really believe it's summer
saw a poll about dry/humid heat and like OBVIOUSLY everyone preferred dry heat but. would love to know what everyone considers to be “too hot”
me personally it’s a hard cutoff at 75°F. don’t need anything more than that thank you 🫶🫶🫶

This is part of my ongoing Discworld jacket embroidery project. Of course Great A'Tuin has to be on there. And of course it has to be the biggest one of them all.
I'm going to put the finished product in my masterpost, but I'm so proud of the thing that I have to put it in an extra post beforehand. Enjoy!
Genuinely, I don’t know how else to get the word out, but I feel like if your home-cooked dinners don’t taste right, you're missing either paprika, sugar, butter, or chicken bouillon.
