If you go on a date with someone and it turns out you’re not interested for whatever reason, but they seem like a decent enough person, then please just send a “thanks but no thanks” type of text— especially if they follow up. Unless the person you went on a date with has really a... concerning personality (aka serial…

I “ran” a 14 minute mile during one of our 1 mile run assessments in 6th grade. The sad part is that I was actually trying.

Hitting my $150k net worth milestone by 30 was pretty satisfying.

I think I saw that one.

Came to see if anyone would recommend Mustafa’s, and am not disappointed. The second time I visited Berlin was because I loved the city, but mostly I was jonesing for their doner kebabs again.

Yeah definitely— I was thinking about that too. In that scenario, all I could think of is poop particles and smelly microbes stuck to the inside drum. I’ve smelled some gag-inducing washing machines in my time, and those (I’m assuming) never handled a load of laundry specifically meant to have crap on it. Introducing…

It’s not just sneezes, either: Virologist Ian Mackay writes that plenty of research suggests some of us can transmit colds and flu just by breathing.

The three richest people in the US own the same wealth as the bottom half of the US population (roughly 160 million people).

“Bamboozled” is a word that comes to mind. This’ll make Dems look like fucking chumps.

Totally not what I meant to imply, but I see how it can be read as such. I agree completely that it’s about the lack of respect to women; I intended to comment on how commandeering a convo during natural pauses is a symptom of a larger problem. Thanks for clarifying.

I once counted the number of times my coworker said “uhm” or “ahh” in a presentation, and in the span of 10 minutes he said it 64 times.
