  • Is it so hard to just say what you mean the first time though?

    “Hey, please do the dishes. It makes me upset to see them not done and I’m always the one doing them.”

    Problem solved.

    Instead the way you said you did it leaves so much open to interpretation “I don’t understand why he is all pissed off today I made sure the pan he was upset about not having last time was clean this time!!”

    The you go on to say “make your expectations and desires clear” lol what the fuck.

    God I hate people that do shit like this. Say what you mean. I kind of feel this “use your big words” meme to be completely honest. You would have had to say what you wanted one time instead of being cryptic about this pan or that glass or whatever while you slowly get more and more pissed each time and she’s slowly wondering what the fuck she is doing wrong each time.

    The always having to tell her to do ANY chores is ridiculous but that would also have been another full sentence to put together and maybe make a list with check marks on it or something idk man but coming home and being like “I can’t use this pan when its crusty like this” isn’t communicating very well. Say what you mean to people the first time.

    We all work full time jobs we shouldn’t have to come home and figure out interpretive dance or whatever. Just say what you mean.

    I’ve had managers and significant others like this and I truly don’t understand it at all. We have perfected the use if words for communication for over 5000 years now. Use the words.



  • Nope not what I said. The current way they are doing the voting is a steaming pile of shit that needs changed.

    Ranked choice is pretty much the only answer. So I’m going to advocate for that strongly and make sure I point out how fucked and broken this current system is to anyone who will listen because that is how you change it. Not by saying “shut up and vote the way it is right now” like you said.

    Also, I DID vote yesterday. But I’m certainly not going to be quiet about how unfair and rigged the process is. No one I voted for won, by the way. I still feel good for doing it anyway though it is all I can do other than complain loud enough that maybe it changes something.


  • Yes, but what if I would like to have a say in more than one party’s candidate?

    Its all or nothing. All democratic, or nothing. All independent or third party whatever they say on the ballot, or nothing. All republican, or nothing.

    Sure I get you can’t pick like a democratic AND republican candidate for the same position but what if I really like the independent treasurer running but also recognize the importance of unseating the republicans in current power and want democratic nominees for everything else?

    Well, I’d have to go with democratic because I know that’s the only snowball chance in hell to get rid of the republicans and I’m screwed out of the opportunity to vote for the independent treasurer running because now I can choose only the democratic ones running.

    It is not a good or fair system and it is the reason we will forever have a two party system. Its junk. Rigged, to a certain degree.

    Ranked choice voting or something similar is the way it should be done.













  • It IS important you and the other dude are right I don’t mean to diminish it completely I am just so burnt out on all this shit going on… So, so badly fatigued with it all.

    I voted today for one of the only ones that didn’t take AIPAC money and part of me feels good about that!

    And then the realist in me knows that that specific candidate has a zero percent chance of winning. I could have stayed home and shit all over my bedroom floor and it would have had the same exact effect.

    I’ve made SO many signs and gone to so many organizational events and talked and talked and, at one point even believed, BELIEVED it was all going to make a difference and I’m just fucking tired of lying to myself and everyone else around me at this point in time.

    We ALL know how to actually fix it and I can’t type it here or I’ll probably get permabanned but we all know the fix. Its a tale as old as time.

    So, I’m kind of trying that method now. Let’s just fucking put it all full out on display and stew in it until the pressure cooker builds and we all take up arms and fix the problem at the root. This wishful thinking and organizing bullshit isn’t working anymore.

    So maybe if enough people get angry and despair enough to the point where they think they might kill themselves instead they will realize that the suits are the ones that need killing.

    We got a little glimpse of it with that Luigi dude. Everyone loved his ass and the suits couldn’t believe it. Clutching their pearls and wearing that stupid look on their face like they just can’t wrap their heads around WHY people want them to fucking die.

    I have been drinking a bit so this is probably sounding WILD but the fact of the matter is that it is the cold hard truth of it now.

    Signs, peaceful protests, voting all of it is wishful thinking at this point in time.

    What we need to be doing is blocking all the exits on all the senators and congressmen and state representatives houses and burn them alive inside them until we pry this country back from the hands of the rich parasitic class.

    Seriously, its all public. We can all find out right now where every single one of them live its trivially easy and I just keep waiting for the day that it pops off and it hasn’t ever come and I’m afraid now that it won’t.

    So, we have people make signs and sing songs and being awareness and that’s all great I’ve done that too and I love the vibe.

    But haven’t we been doing that since Reagan? It has just gotten worse. And worse. And worse. And worse. And worse. And worse.

    Its like credit card debt, every year we get 30% worse. Lose 30% more freedoms. Have 30% more of the wealth consolidated in the nice manicured lotioned hands of people who have never had to do a day of work in their entire lives.

    I’m tired of pretending that signs and songs are going to fix it. Its not.
