Topic | 4 black americans kidnapped in Mexico |
lolife67 03/07/23 1:22:57 PM #43 | I4NRulez posted... its honestly not that bad. The cartels dont usually fuck with tourists. They dont want too much attention from the US. If anything is going to happen you're more likely to get pickpocketed or mugged.Exactly. These folks went to an area that is explicitly said to be dangerous. It's not like all of Mexico is like that. |

And I've been wanting to go on a Cancun trip for a while, but after hearing these news...one gets a bit weary.Eh, you'll be fine as long as you don't go someplace deemed a dangerous area like these people did. General file of thumb: If your resort had guards then don't go. |

lolife67 03/06/23 12:55:29 PM #12 | The_Yahtz09 posted... No, to get the price of one night it would be total cost divided by total nights. Total nights is is the summation of everyones stay. So if you have 20 people staying two nights, the total nights would be 20 x 2 = 40.This. |

lolife67 03/03/23 3:08:40 PM #44 | Euripides posted... I don't think anyone expects it to be like Andor, just that Andor set a really high bar for what a Star Wars show could be, do this feels like a let downHow is it a let down when it's basically the same show it's always been? That's my point. How good Andor is should have no bearing on the Mandalorian. They're made completely different and always have been. |
Topic | The Mandalorian Season 3 First Episode Topic *SPOILERS* |
lolife67 03/03/23 10:56:21 AM #34 | It's pretty silly to compare this to Abdor for a number reasons, not the least of which they're two different types of shows. It's like comparing a drama to a action show/film. This show is the same as it's always been so expecting it to change and be more like Andor doesn't make any sense. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 8:52:25 PM #125 | Hoodroar posted... But that is not working for the men who already are but still getting nowhere.I'm not disputing whether it's correct or not. I'm just saying their current debate is based on misspeaking. They actually likely agree. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 7:53:49 PM #119 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] You're correct on both points. I'll also add that where Gladius and Gobstopper are at odds is over the idea of VOTING left. What she should've said is these men should become more liberal/left leaning. Voting is irrelevant. It's the mindset that needs to change for some. |

Don't gaslight about cultural trends.These stats don't mean those men are "victims," which was what the post you responded to was actually talking about. There's a lot of reasons for those stats that are completely in the man's control. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 4:41:19 PM #51 | Cocytus posted... I can definitely agree to that. It's not all sunshine and roses for women either. Fair enough. It's just really hard for dudes is all I'm saying. Really hard. And it seems a lot of times that women have most of the power in bridging the relationship gap. Women should speak up to guys more. Guys are not apt to approach women now-a-days, imho. But I agree, it's hard for women out there too, especially if they fall into a relationship and it turns to mega shit for them, I get that, truly.Well, I never said it isn't hard out there for some men. I'm sure it is and that must suck for them. My point was that it isn't harder than it is for women, as you initially claimed. I also think focusing on who has it worse isn't helping anyone and sometimes becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 3:58:56 PM #40 | Cocytus posted... You can elaborate. I won't cry.I don't think men have it worse, overall. I think both genders have it bad but in different areas. Woman aren't typically looking for the same thing in dating as men and vice versa. So saying they have it easier is only looking at it from a male perspective and not what a woman actually wants/looks at. And even the things that some men think are "hard" really aren't that serious or difficult to manage. And are generally the result of men/sexism in the first place. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 3:46:33 PM #37 | Cocytus posted... Look y'all, here's a bottom line. In the dating world, men have it the worst, currently speaking, almost anyway you look at it. Full stop.Nah. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 2:42:44 PM #27 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Most definitely! These things need to be done for better quality of life for everyone. [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Yeah. Think about how much we change over the years. Expecting someone to grow with you through all that is a bit unrealistic. At 25, you don't even know the person you'll be at 35, much less your partner. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 2:29:50 PM #24 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Correct. But people are overly concerned with "wasting their time," which is understandable but also kind of stupid lol And that brings us back to the adversarial part because we condition folks to want completely different things from dating, which are naturally at odds, i.e. a meaningful connection/relationship vs just getting some. I personally think people look to get married too young and should instead use their 20s- (early) 30s to date around and figure out themselves, as well as what they truly want in a partner. It'd probably cut down the divorce rate. |

Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 2:14:16 PM #19 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] Kind of. It was more of a general statement about expectations/desires in dating and why men/women view it differently. I say it's mostly due to how society trains us to look at dating, which is changing (thankfully.) |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 2:07:58 PM #16 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I'd agree with this though, so... |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 2:07:15 PM #15 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] I think you're misunderstanding my point. I'm not denying that more women are feeling frustrated and disappointed with dating. I'm saying that even with some changing their stances on dating, the majority still look at dating the old fashioned way. I'm not talking about casual sex, either. I'm specifically talking about actual dating. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 1:56:51 PM #12 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] You are the exception and not the rule. Things are changing, sure but that doesn't negate my point as far as the majority. |
Topic | Young men: dates feel more like job interviews |
lolife67 03/02/23 1:29:57 PM #8 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] One of the issues is that women aren't generally taught to actually date like men are. Y'all are "pushed" to seek out serious relationships, as opposed to enjoying the dating process and learning what it is you really want (and also just have fun!) This also makes dating more adversarial than it should be. |

Topic | Peter Pan and Wendy trailer from Disney |
lolife67 03/01/23 5:28:58 PM #29 | FortuneCookie posted... We're talking about two different things here. Changing a character's ethnicity is different from having a different version of a character. And most companies do not want to have the latter.Changing a fairy or mermaid from black to white is completely irrelevant to ethnicity in this context. It doesn't affect the actual character at all. It's no different than having another version of the character. Kids are certainly able to make the distinction. It's adults that seem to be struggling. |
Topic | What does Woke even mean? |
lolife67 03/01/23 4:35:26 PM #69 | Dan_Haren- posted... 65 posts later I still don't knowLet me help you out. Honestly, a lot of (white) liberals don't know what it really means either. They haven't appropriated and weaponized it like the Right has but still. So pay attention and I'll tell you the tale of "Woke." So originally, "woke" was a term used by black people (predominantly) to mean they were aware of the actual systemic injustices that continue to plague the African-American community, how that affects us generationally, as well as how that relates to white supremacy. They were "awake" while the rest of us slept (i.e. continued to listen to profane music, be attracted to European beauty standards, sell drugs to our communities, kill each other, etc which only furthers the agenda of our "oppressors.") We typically refer to these people as "Hoteps," which is a word that became more derogatory in nature as these types started sounding more sanctimonious than righteous and began morphing into a more sexist/misogynistic rhetoric to coincide with their "black power" ideas. Like most things black Americans come up with, the term was noticed by white folks a few decades after we were using it. And, of course, they act like they discovered something brand new and decide to appropriate it and run it into the ground. White liberals use it to mean being aware of social injustices and systemic racism and how that affects minorities/marginalized groups today (NOTE: Not just black people as was the original usage.) They wore it like a badge of honor/patting themselves on the back. This, of course, pissed of Conservative (see: racist) White people because if there's one thing they hate more than black people taking about racism, it's other white people doing so. That's when they decided to appropriate it from the Liberal White people and use it as a derogatory catch-all phrase they can use to demean any talk of social justice. Sadly, it actually doesn't even need to be true social justice. Casting characters that are LGBTQ, women and/or race swapping is also called "woke." And THAT, my friend, is the true story of "Woke." You're welcome. |
Topic | What does Woke even mean? |
lolife67 03/01/23 4:29:03 PM #68 | lennethsoki posted... "Woke" is basically acceptance to a draconian degree, and jumping on anything to feign support, when in actuality they just do it for themselves. Harass and shame people for not tolerating your views, but you won't do the same for theirs. It's full of bitter, angry people who are disguising their own hate and misery under the guise of caring about others. (See: doing the absolute bare minimum for the causes they support online, but offline where it actually matters they won't make a sound)This is completely wrong. |
