Lifehacks* thread! What are the little (or big) things you do that greatly improve your life for little effort?

Yes! I have two tips. One, get YNAB and learn to use it—there’s a bit of a learning curve, but it’s a game changer once you get it. Two, check out Yes and Yes’s Money-Happy Bootcamp. It’s a free weeklong program that gets you really looking at where you’re spending and whether it aligns with things that actually make…

Shudder. I can never remember his name and then it all comes back when he mentions his (imaginary) daughter.

I posted about this the other day, as well, and got a lot of slack from female commenters as well as my least favourite of the everywhere-men commenting all over the thread without actually engaging with me. So...gird your loins!

I just bought the materials to make reusable bulk bin bags so that I don’t have to choose between shitty plastic bags or carrying heavy jars. I’m excited! I just have to pull out my sewing machine and get cutting.

YES.

Yes, the interesting thing is that the top comment can change depending on how many responses it gets. When I posted initially, the two top comments were from men.

Sadly, there are more than enough women who will defend this bullshit...also, I agree, “I like your dress” is not a principal-worthy offense (or an offense at all).

If they’re withdrawing their allyship because they can’t harass women, they weren’t real allies to start with.

I feel like “you boob” is an underrated insult, and I appreciate your use of it (as well as agreeing with the rest of your comment).

Men will fall all over themselves to hire a “brilliant asshole” because they seem to think that in recognizing some asshole’s “brilliance,” they themselves are also brilliant.

I’m really sorry that happened and so angry on your behalf. Fuck all of those fuckers.

Unfortunately, when I worked at a campus sexual assault centre, I had multiple clients say they deeply regretted coming forward. Not all, but many. The process is horrible.

Yes, please!

Also, nowhere did I call for separatism ever, but that won’t stop the patriarchy defenders.

Okay!

1) “Maybe they could take up a little less space” is not separatism. That is an absurd leap that I can only imagine was made in bad faith.

Oh I’m sorry, what part of “don’t take up quite so much space” is exclusionary?

Yeah! I’m a stupid bitch! It’s certainly not a years-long pattern of men taking up huge amounts of space here (AND EVERYWHERE ELSE)!

I see what you’re saying, but there is a big, visible, difference between “oh, I didn’t know about this dynamic” and “bullshit patriarchy defending.”
