Enjoy it, because your 40s will require sacrifices.
Agree with both above parent comments, but what can they hope to gain by starting to point out his meltdowns now? Do they think they can convince him to step down as well? To change his rhetoric?
The company I work for has a decent professional culture that emphasizes teamwork without any weird gimmicks. But I don’t get paid to make friends with these people. If anything, the people that think they’re there to socialize usually put the work second and make things harder for the rest of the team.
There’s nothing wrong with sharing jokes and having fun at work. As long as you understand that there’s also value in keeping your personal life seperate.
Many human organs have monetary value, as does plasma and other components, even if the source is less than ideal.

It’s lack of empathy and lack of personal exposure. They live in bubbles where they only associate with people who think and act like themselves. It’s a fertile ground for disconnection with reality, and it breeds this withholding of empathy for those who live outside the bubble.
Watching helplessly for 40 or 50 years while your parents’ generation destroys everything will do that
Fuck this guy. Throw him in double jail
“Remember, the dog whistle is just as effective to rile up your base, so don’t be afraid to use that instead”
Spend some more time with the family, Joe. Thanks for grabbing the wheel, there. We’ll take it from here.
I’m inclined to agree.
When a sudden power vacuum appears, two things are likely to happen. One, there’s a mad scramble to grab that power and two, they’ll turn on each other in the attempt. But that’s all that seems certain.
Leadership would change hands and divisions would deepen, but they’ve been on a path of retribution and violence for a long time now. Trump’s exit wouldn’t end that.
If it isn’t, then it’s worse, because that means he’s only saying it out of cruelty and petty malice. And it means I now loathe him somehow more than I already did.
I know that this is vile and sick and cruel but goddamn, that headline is so fucking batshit stupid I laughed out loud.
What a colossal dipshit.
Fishback declined to comment for this story as the nudist values his privacy.

His inability to stop speaks to me of self-destructive desires.
Sometimes when you translate something into another medium, a weakness you might have overlooked is exposed.
If we’re going to armchair this;
A much more reasonable response would be to apologize for whatever stupid, insulting, insensitive thing he said to cause her to throw something at him, if in fact she did so, rather than escalate violence.
Another response might be to walk away and use some of your investment money to buy a new jacket.
Or, if you wanna get all Biblical, eye for an eye, he could have thrown a drink right back. That seems reasonable to me.
But yeah, no, broken nose. Fair enough.
“In terms of the sexual act, it will be just very basic. It’s not going to involve descriptions of genitalia or anything of that nature,” Hoffinger said.
Some people are gonna be disappointed.
Like how Daniels must have been.
What I really find disappointing about this exchange is how disingenuous this scenario is that you paint. You set up a very vague and overbroad situation and then follow it up with a very specific to the point of anecdotal example as if that refutes my rebuttal.
Like, do you really think I should get bogged down in a response to this new scenario like it’s worth considering? Do you genuinely think a random person on the internet is incapable of imagining a scenario such as the one you described and would be floored by it? C’mon dude.
But ok. Sure, let’s do this like you have a good point. Here’s what should happen. Domestic violence experts who are trained in psychology and deescalation techniques could intervene and create a safe exit for victims of abuse and violence. But you know what? I don’t know what exactly that task force would look like or how it would operate. What I do know is, it shouldn’t look like those guys in blue who shoot black people in their own homes while existing and chuck flashbangs into cribs.
