And in Europe, the Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians and Swedes, are generally of what we call a swarthy Complexion; as are the Germans also, the Saxons only excepted, who with the English, make the principal Body of White People on the Face of the Earth.
Ha, I do miss the extra crotch room. Here’s actually an interesting article about why women’s pants have been getting even tighter in the crotch (spoiler alert - it’s money):
I used to wear only men’s pants, including cargo pants, and oh boy is it disgusting how much better I get treated by service workers, etc. since switching to vaguely fashionable women’s pants. Fit issues aside, it’s a lot more complicated than “just buy men’s pants” (although I guess at least cargo pants for women are back “in” now?)
the waist thing is a non-issue
Depends on the shape of your hips. I wore men’s pants almost exclusively until my hips changed a lot during pregnancy and I haven’t been able to find a comfy pair of men’s pants since (and I’m far from the only woman I know with this problem). Glad it works for you, though! The huge pockets are so nice and the fabric is usually sturdier, too.
I’ll stick with ikea until the kids move out
Yeah, this is it for us. I grew up in a home with a lot of “grandma’s heirloom dining table” type items that I was punished for bumping into, spilling on, etc. While I do believe in teaching kids respect, it seems like a lot of unnecessary stress for both parents and kids to use this stuff as your daily driver and we don’t have the space for special-occasions-only furniture.
Yep, CA Dept of Housing considers an individual making less than $109k in San Francisco “low-income” - that’s about what you’d need to qualify for a 1br apartment there.
Maybe this varies from country to country, but IME the mapping of descriptions to numbers isn’t clear, which makes it hard to give a good response. At best, they’ll pull out something like this.
The text of the 22nd amendment is pretty clear:
No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice
If they’re going to try to argue that means 1+2 terms is ok, doesn’t seem like that would preclude 2+1.
Our clothes are comfy af
Not if you have curves, unfortunately. You can size up and belt down, but then you’re left with a ton of extra fabric wadded up around your waist and the belt buckle will ride up and pinch.
Why should women have to buy clothes that fit poorly and are uncomfortable just to get functional pockets?
The battery is about the same size (~4000mAh), it’s just thicker because they had to cram it into a smaller area :)
I actually just switched from a Pixel 5 to the Jelly Max last week and I’ve been pretty happy with it so far. My Pixel 5 was starting to have problems and I hate that it’s considered a “small” phone now.
My only real complaints about the Jelly Max are that the touchscreen is less sensitive, the camera is not as good, and there’s no 3.5mm jack, but they’re far from dealbreakers IMO. I haven’t noticed that it’s any worse at multitasking and I’ve read you can get better performance out of the camera with 3rd party camera apps but haven’t gotten around to figuring that out yet. It is about as heavy and twice as thick as the Pixel 5, but I personally feel like the thickness makes it a little more ergonomic to hold one-handed.
Fun fact: skin atrophy is actually a thing and a common side effect of topical steroids. Still probably not what he meant though
If your kids are playground aged, you probably don’t have a ton of free time/babysitter money to be doing that. You could bring the kids, but I’d rather not have my small children handling used needles and condoms (just a few of the delights I’ve found on my local playground)…
Seniors had care when there were less resources because families had 6 kids to raise.
Historically, this was made possible by unpaid care labor performed primarily by women and children.
