Sweet Jesus, I thought you were my wife for a minute. Those are literally my cats in every respect except for the fact that they aren’t.

If you’re housed I’ll trade you my current situation so you can test that for yourself.

So far I’ve discovered in this thread:

-People don’t like traditional fantasy that takes itself seriously.
-People don’t like lighthearted fantasy that plays with the themes.
-People don’t like hard magical systems.
-People don’t like soft magical systems.
-People don’t like dragons being involved.
-People don’t like an absence of dragons.
-People don’t like character archetypes.
-People don’t like counterarchetypes.
-People don’t like when characters speak an understandable language.
-People don’t like characters meeting each other in common social meeting areas.

All good here? Great.

Just write whatever the fuck you want. There’s always an audience.

My wife and I are part of a younger generation whose culture revolves around NOT having children until all those things you mentioned are attained. The stress of even having a kid, let alone multiple, is not something we’re going to address until we hit financial security.

What’s arbitrary? You said people blame genetics.

Being female is genetic. You can’t use that in your answer. Also, your answer didn’t account for the fact that she eats healthier.

My wife eats a little healthier than I do. She drinks more water than I do. We eat the same quantity of food. We have the same exercise level. She’s notably heavier than I am. Please explain how there’s such a substantial difference in the end result. You aren’t allowed to use genetics in your answer.

Home Depot has something like that. Don’t get enough people to sign up for cards, you get a warning. Get enough people to sign up for cards and you get a $20 Gift Card.

Adams has admitted that he hasn’t been in an office in such a long time that he doesn’t know what’s relevant anymore. In classic Dilbert fashion, the admission slipped as part of his defense that his comics were current and he had a finger on the pulse of the technology sector.

Please provide evidence of a single name you were called in this thread.

Just one.

Otherwise I think I see the problem.

Everyone, huh? How do you figure?

Who the fuck are you that you have any right to teach me a lesson?

Gotcha. Thanks!

Is the opposite specifically giving asshole the space or specifically giving good drivers the space? Or is it giving absolutely everyone space and not caring how badly they park?

Much obliged. You and your wife have a very considerate, charming relationship and I’m happy you found each other!

When someone parks like a complete asshole with a spot open on their driver’s side, I park like an asshole right up next to them so they have to get in another way. This teaches them not to park like an asshole so they don’t bother others.

You’re still touching the lunchmeat. It’s touching you inside. All over. It’s rubbing against your tongue, teeth… the roof of your mouth. It massages its way to the back of your throat rubbing itself against every inch of your esophagus, until it finally reaches the inside of your stomach.

But it’s not done there. Your lunchmeat - the same thing you revile touching with your fingers - begins to lay against the walls of your stomach lining as it is slowly digested. Some of it may even make its way into your small intestine completely intact. It touches you all the way through.

Is that really what you want for yourself?

Most Creators have communities where you can voice that desire if they don’t give you the information outright. Some do it through having companies of their own. Merch, coffee, and alcohol are common salespoints. JackSepticeye has a coffee brand and shares a clothing brand with Markiplier. Phillip De Franco also has a coffee brand and a clothing brand. Devin Stone (LegalEagle) doesn’t, but he’s part of the following push:

Some are on other platforms that more directly reward the content creators, like Nebula. This allows them to have a Patreon-like model where some content is publicly available to drum up interest while other deeper or more long-form content exists behind a paywall. Communicate in communities with your favorite creators to find out how you can show them your support more specifically.

I don’t generally agree with the corporate side of the argument, but financial support for the platform itself has to come from somewhere.

But you don’t pay them directly. Hardly anybody does, except YouTube and whatever midroll sponsor they can hack a deal with. That’s WHY content creators insisted on paydays through YouTube to begin with and why YouTube is trying to make enough money to pay them all and look profitable.
