I went to my family Christmas with my then-partner. I got a Grinch onesie from my family

We then attended my partner’s family Christmas where basically the entire living room was stuffed with presents for the kids (my partner and their siblings). My then-partner complained about how the siblings all got more $$ worth of presents. I pointed out that I got a pair of pjs for Christmas. The reply: “it’s not about the dollar amount, it’s just they got more than me” (paraphrased)

I hated that present. A fucking onesie? It was such a disappointing present, and for a long time I used it as an example for questions just like this

I kept it and wore it. Eventually I lost the bitterness and started to cherish it even. Which is why I still wear it regularly this time of year! It’s quite warm… plus, it has pockets!

Grinch tax:

Just a little play piercing then 🥹?

Just cast him as all the roles. in everything

To add, it’s an extremely uplifting and wholesome community.

I’ve regularly tuned in when I’m feeling down and am moved by the support everyone shows

I’m very sorry I didn’t think of this context. I wasn’t being daft intentionally, it just didn’t occur to me when I was trying to figure out the situation

I can understand now. Thank you for sharing and gently explaining the situation

(I’m also very, very sorry to have implied your mother had cheated in that scenario. I did not mean to cast shade on her character)

Thank you; I’m sorry I missed that broader context. I try to think critically about what I read and sometimes I struggle with widening my scope of thinking

That would indicate your mom cheated as well? Not sure exactly what your dad cheating has to do with your DNA. Wouldn’t it be better to find out he wasn’t your dad if he was so shitty?

My PS5 is 4 months old and my fans have never been that loud. Not even when two have been on and running at the same time. Granted we weren’t playing disc games, but still… Fan noise shouldn’t be that loud

Oh my God that’s wonderful. I haven’t been in this light of a mood for a while, I’m nearly crying laughing at that. Hopefully there’s more like that. Though if there is, I gotta be careful or I might fall in love

A part of me actually wished that the Onion would have purchased InfoWars, but in secret, like maybe under a subsidiary corp that has a right-wing sounding name.

"Today we celebrate a new addition to the Global Tetrahedron LLC family of brands. "

don’t change Infowars’ branding

"Founded in 1999 … InfoWars has distinguished itself as an invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses.

…

InfoWars has shown an unswerving commitment to manufacturing anger and radicalizing the most vulnerable members of society—values that resonate deeply with all of us at Global Tetrahedron.

No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. … a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars."

I’m absolutely not disagreeing with you; I believe the onion will continue on doing “its thing” and keeping on-brand for both entities. Do exactly what you say and publish articles either believable or outlandish enough to break through to people

I’ve installed stardew on nearly every mobile device I’ve owned

You convinced me to buy it for my PlayStation and I’m loading it up now 😂

I’m not familiar with M.A.S.H. (though I know of the show) to know that song. So I read it to myself to the tune of this beaut

I did too. But I played when they had the starter zone and sadly never got very far out of it. Once in a while I’d find someone who’d invite a high level character to clear a dungeon (or what ever the eq lingo is) but never was able to venture much outside the cities

If that feel-bad-for-people part of me didn’t work on overdrive I’d be out there with tables and sites full of merch pandering to these braindead (brainwashed?) morons

“a fool and his money are soon parted”

So, anyone with an android can let you use theirs and the “find device” app in guest mode. Your info won’t be saved but that option is there for exactly your use case

Oh, wow… Thank you! My mind is blown at the beauty of the area

It’s like when I’ve visited the grand canyon or Bryce or the redwoods. I always wonder what the first explorers thought when they found these natural wonders

This is what came to mind* immediately

Something we need but do not know we want

Is that a real photo (I hate how I feel I need to even ask that now.)? It’s gorgeous, I love the contrast between the different formations

Not even that for me; most of the random things I want to add to my “to watch” list aren’t even on a streaming service

I just finished Bob’s Burgers but I was playing a game while the last episode was on and didn’t realize it was the finale…

Just means I need to rewatch the whole thing again!
