  • In the quote he’s not saying other jobs don’t suck out your soul, just that it’s different.

    In a vacuum, not knowing this guy or the rest of his statement, I don’t see anything obviously wrong with that he’s saying.

    They take a mental toll on you in different ways, but they all take a mental toll, is what he seems to be saying, and I find that reasonable.

    There are people who think trying to make a career as an entertainer (like in streaming) doesn’t take any toll on you at all, and that’s a misunderstanding we should dispell.



  • Huh, I’ve probably seen it, but I can’t remember ever seeing a bloke pushing a pram here in the UK.

    I see loads of women doing so of course, and I must have seen a man doing so at some point, but not often enough to have any recollection of it ever happening. Strange!

    I’m sure I’ll take notice the next time I spot it though.







  • I mean yeah, so long as you’re not actually giving money to the evil woman that wrote those books in any way, nobody’s stopping you from enjoying your old Harry Potter books and DVDs.

    Heck, if you’re missing one you can buy it on eBay second hand, just so long as you’re not supporting the evil woman with a shiny new purchase, ya know? That woman doesn’t deserve a penny.

    There’s a separate conversation you might want to have with yourself on whether your can separate the author from the work while you’re reading it, of course, and whether you’re comfortable doing so or not is a personal decision you’ll have to make for yourself.





  • I dunno, obviously I wouldn’t judge my partner for it, it’s not their fault, BUT it would be a big problem for me at least initially, I need silence to sleep, and the slightest noise (that gets through my earplugs - snoring directly next to me would do it) would make sleeping very difficult.

    I’ve already experienced it when someone slept over after a date (who turned out to be an extremely loud snorer) and oh boy, it was a night of torture, almost no sleep at all 😂

    It seems as if there’s a large chunk of multiple generations that were never taught by their guardians and teachers how to use a microwave properly.

    You wouldn’t use an oven the same way as a frying pan and expect the same results. Microwaves are great for some things and not for others, and can easily heat things through evenly.

    It’s not the fault of people who don’t know though, it’s a fault of their educators.
