Pet Peeves: Aka Things That Make You Go "Gah!"
JustHereForFood replied to Betweenyouandme's topic in Everything Else
I buy a lot of cosmetics from Avon and Oriflame and they regularly stop selling what I like the most, especially hand creams. I hate it. -
Do You Consider Yourself A Feminist?: Why Or Why Not?
JustHereForFood replied to RealHousewife's topic in Everything Else
I know some women who prefer to do a lot of housework because they want it done a specific way and they would probably not get their partners to do it exactly as they want it done. I don't know enough about the details to judge whether it is intentional "weaponized incompetence" on the men's part or whether they would perform just fine and the women just want it done a very specific or perfectionist way. Probably a mix of both. I know that I wouldn't let some of the cleaning for somebody else because I need it done my way, but don't give a shit about some other stuff. As long as both people are happy with the arrangement, whatever works is fine, IMO. I just hope that children are used for unpaid labor less than in the past. -

Not sure if this was mentioned before, but one that is better than the original for me:

Chit-Chat: What's On Your Mind Today?

Nooo, you're supposed to give Alaska to Russia. After all, they only want a piece of land and then everything will be good and happy again. If Biden said that, the media would be all over him, questioning how can he lead for 4 more years. Yeah, countries are already salivating over how to divide and exploit all of the Arctic, instead of working together to slow down the climate change. Sometimes, I hate this whole planet (the people, I mean, not the nature).

Chit-Chat: What's On Your Mind Today?
JustHereForFood replied to JTMacc99's topic in Everything Else
We had a bit of snow for like two days, then it rained on it and it's all gone now. I keep repeating myself, but I hate climate change! -

Well, yes. Or rather a combination of some being lazy, some (probably the majority) having not enough time to follow everything & the media not reporting on everything that governments do because it's taken for granted and not as entertaining to report on as scandals, plus many people simply wanting to have some group of people to blame for everything that goes wrong with their lives. I know we have different definitions on what is far, centre or moderate, which is probably why so many unnecessary conflicts happen - in my understanding, the far left is actually happy because their main enemy are the Democrats and "cringe liberals who are basically the same as fascists" not Republicans and they wanted Trump to win (or at least to feel good about themselves for not voting/voting for some crazy third party) because they want things to get worse to start their glorious revolution or whatever they want to call it these days. The people who are genuinely worried about the mentally unstable person being back in the office that holds probably most power in the world have good reasons to be worried that have nothing to do with political extremism.

I've read the LotR (split into 3 hardbacks), A Storm of Swords (split into 2 paperbacks) and A Dance with Dragons (1 hardback). A Dance with Dragons was a bitch to read, because it's a huge heavy book, hard to hold. I much much prefer to read paperbacks, but at least with the shorter hardbacks you can still somehow hold them and don't have to read them at a table like some school assignment. (I could have waited for the paperback edition as I often do now with some books, but I was reading all of them at once in 2011-12 just when ADwD was released, so I was impatient.) As an aside, I like it when the length of book is listed by words and not pages - fanfiction spoiled me and now I want to be able to compare.
