I hope so too! Like I said, trying is a massive step and isn’t easy. Give yourself credit for that and be proud.

You’re trying which takes a lot of courage - that’s the right attitude for sure. I’d suggest joining activities not just gathering places in subjects you’re passionate about or interested in. By that I mean like games, sports, arts etc - a class or club means you share similar interests (something to break the ice) and social context to interact. It’s more likely you’ll click with others that share your interest.

So go to tour your local town in an organized group. Take a painting or pottery class. Join a recreational sport club.

Good luck!

AberMUD … so many hours … inoculated me from ever taking on EQ tho so that’s good.

Note that I have NOT used it oh chrome but on all other materials Bar Keepers Friend has been amazing with food stains. While I prefer the cream I believe the spray is less abrasive. If you tried steel wool the cream should be fine though. Good luck!

Remember when he termed out?

Also, I look forward to hearing policy positions from his opponent … oops he fell out a window. This other candidate … window. And … window.

After years of tripping over their own feet Argentina opts to shoot itself in the dick because change.

Ok.

It’s a great country and Buenos Aires is a wonderful city but hoo boy this is … not likely to go well.

Thanks for the tip - trying it out!

They might want to get paid before, you know, actually making them.

My entire living family isn’t even 25 people…to lose that many and more would be beyond comprehension. It’s horrific, irrespective of whatever politics you might support. Dead kids with numbers on their arms … nightmare.

Sorry for your struggles. Have you tried engaging in things you are more comfortable / passionate about? Face to face encounters over a game or band or hobby you love will provide a common interest to connect over. I hope this helps!

What an absolute nightmare. Those poor people are caught in the middle of a conflict they can do nothing about. It’s horrific.

I’d say New Age - like Jean Michel Jarre and Vangelis

Their laughable incompetence and chaotic organization doesn’t change their intentions to stop the legitimate certification of the election. This was absolutely a massive attack on our Democratic system of governance. The fact that it was attempted by disorganized idiots doesn’t change that fact.

We got lucky.

Falling asleep on a road trip and being carried to bed by my parents.

I’m by no means saying Lego are bad today, but I loved inventing my own stuff, not assembling someone else’s design. Yeah my stuff was nowhere near as accurate or realistic….but wasn’t that the point?

I did not know she actually refused. Dick move but smart for the constitution to stipulate that.

I would note that it’s not any part of the ethos so an atheist can be (or not) anything. A lack of faith in a deity and an absence of prescribed beliefs is precisely that after all.

So vegan and meat loving atheists can exist precisely as much as progressive and extremely conservative ones.

Is it likely or common? I’d venture so say I doubt it.

She may have rudely skipped the ceremonial handoff but she ceded power. That’s a far cry from refusing to which is the threat I meant.

All the solid answers posted plus they’re now a massive store - they can live on, say, $0.10 profit on a book because they made plenty more on the backpack and tire patch kit and deodorant you also added to your cart because convenience.

Plus no retail rent, no retail staff to pay.

It’s like gas stations barely breaking even on gas, but making bank on snacks. Bookstores usually won’t have those other product categories to fall back on like Amazon does.

You’re right - I think but do not know he’s worse and it’s due to the global pattern of totalitarianism that the Right has embraced. I fear Argentina falling into that trap by electing a populist today that refuses to cede power tomorrow.

If he’s the least bad option that’s a commentary of the politics there and perhaps your conclusion is justified, I simply don’t know enough about them to say, but a meh known quantity appeals more to me than a personable extremist.

With all respect, is defeatism the best way to choose leadership? Far Right is in an of itself disqualifying to me because I strongly oppose their stated policy positions so I’m certainly not objective.
