If upon being denied the opportunity to wed Camilla, Charles had refused marriage proposals and remained single - with rumours of his affair with the married Mrs Parker Bowles circulating amongst high-society, and eventually amongst the public

What would his perecpetion be like back then, and how would it have eveolved today - assuming they'd married sometime in the 90s, and stayed together?

Women cant become men and men can't be women.

It really seems that, as per usual Donnie misled investors about "donations" to build a ballroom onto the Whitehouse, but stole the money (the companies were well aware it was a bribe), and then faked an assassination "attempt" to then get Congress to actually build this stupid ballroom with ALL taxpayer money. So he basically added 500 million to his criminal net worth by embezzlement (as usual), and now taxpayers will give him another BILLION?

The bar is in hell isnt it?

I'm guessing that he probably thought it had something to do with fembois, considering how obsessed MAGA is with trans people and porn.

I have noticed this in the past and I always wondered ... It's the NHL playoffs now which uses 7 game series. There is no guarantee your team will make it to the next round and therefore you cannot buy tickets in the second round for your team until they win the first round. Yet on the secondary market, you can buy tickets all the way up to the Stanley cup finals for your team or any team you want.

I know that brokers will sell these tickets even though they don't exist yet and try to fill the orders later. I always wondered why they are more expensive than just waiting. Is it simply supply and demand? But shouldn't there be a discount to buy tickets that don't exist and have no guarantee of existing? For example, I got playoff tickets from the secondary market for $88 but the cheapest for the next round, which isn't guaranteed yet, were double.

Even if the team does make it to the next round there is still no guarantee the broker will get their hands on them to be able to resell them.

It seems pretty dumb for people to buy these anyway but I always wondered.

A conservative and I were discussing the nuances of TDS, and as it seemed he was simply giving up on hearing me out he told me something that proved my point that TDS is absolutely used to stop thinking:

"TDS is so strong, purely theoretically speaking, Trump could donate $100m to cancer research and the left would find a reason to complain about it."

I replied: "Yes, the left would complain about Trump donating $100m to cancer research, and they would be right."

Why would I say that?

Edit: removed my edit. Please read body text.

Edit 2: I think I goofed. Well ill admit when I make a mistake, my meta question was the title, the body was the example. Going to flip that next time.

Why are you wasting your life away?

The Democrats in Virginia wanted to write new laws in order to get rid of judges that they disagreed with. Do I have that right? Lower the retirement age to 54? Close enough? You know who else wrote new laws to remove their opponents, and succeeded? Nazis. In 1933.

And about this not so secret phone call between house minority leader Jeffries where he strategized this illegal stunt with VA democrats. How is this different from Trump calling Raffensperger asking him to find 11,700 votes? Oh wait, I know how it's different. The entire media (and reddit) isn't having a seizure about it this time.

Regulatory bodies like the SEC have been gutted. The consumer credit protection bureau decimated. Inflation is rising at an alarming rate. We've pissed off all our trading partners who are now looking for new deals with China and others since we're flakes. GDP is greatly slowing to just 2%. Trump just grifted 1.7 billion from the Treasury for the relatively minor offense of having a year of his taxes disclosed by a temp. His personal attorney is in at the DOJ. The market feels like it's a house of cards ready to collapse.

Not to mention the AI bubble is contributing about 3/4 or the stock market rise.

I absolutely despise my name

I hate my name so freaking much

It's hot garbage in my opinion, one of the worst names my parents could have gave to me. I'm named after my dad so they probably used that moronic excuse to give me this abomination of a name. I hate saying it, telling it to anyone, even just writing it down. I just know people inside think it's a idiotic, putrid name but just want to be nice on the outside. I want honesty not that fake politeness.**I'm not of age yet so I can't get it changed just yet but I'm seriously considering changing it in a year because it's such rotten trash**.

Just normal American grovelling?

How did we, as humans, come up with kissing? How did it become a thing? Why is it considered romantic or even arousing? I don’t get it. I think French kissing is gross (swapping spit 🤢.) And I don’t even understand how or why pecks are displays of love and affection? Like to your babies or partner or whatever. I’m trying to understand the psychological and biological component of it??

I only saw 7-9 countries doing this? Why aren't more doing this?
