| 3. It would have been easy to move out but my family isn't upper class. Barely even maintaining two flats, paying thousands for my schooling in a private high school, I don't think it would be easy to just move out and start life somewhere else due to how expensive it has gotten. All else being eq... |

| 1. I don't need 3 million people or 30,000 to understand me. It's one person who truly will understand me and be there for me. 2. It is true that self-care is what is needed if we are ever to go positive. Maybe I am going through a phase and I hope that it's a phase of grievance that I'm experienci... |

| However , I don’t like it when people claim that they can’t change. I strongly believe that if you are aware of prejudice (or whatever) you can change it unless you don’t want to. I face prejudice because I have autism and I feel like I stand no chance in my home country of three million. It needs ... |

| Night clubs are also becoming less popular in the UK, despite reasonable public transport links being viable for going 'out into town'. There was an article a while back on it saying that night clubs are less popular with Gen-Z in particular who prefer staying indoors versus going out on the town o... |

| I can't think of a single night club in my suburb city anymore - they've all closed down. In part because of liquor laws changing w/ super strict drinking driving laws and Everyone here drives because everything is so spread out. And I think in part because the region just decided to have all the ni... |

Dirtbags - - probably, but dirtbags doubtlessly with an agenda. If Trump gets reelected, he will owe them and will be malleable to their will i... |

| After nearly two months since breaking off, I began to question the validity of their gender dysphoria and whether they truly had it or it was imposed by liberalism. I don’t think this thread is about politics at all. It seems more like another attempt to justify transphobia. It’s not cool to quest... |

| Trans people exist all over the world regardless of political system. What you're suggesting is that you'd prefer they be oppressed and hidden to appease your personal biases and inability to accept others. This is why there are still LGBT rights protests all over the world; to stamp out bigotry. N... |

| 9-10 HOURS in a pub is a very long time. Usually people are more like maybe 2-3 hours. Some regulars might come for dinner then stay late, but they wouldn’t be there from 3/4 until 1. Maybe 6 or 7pm until 12 or 1, but mostly those people had no lives, no family around etc. Just their other alcoholic... |

| During the stage of my life when.i was not drinking at all my dad said to me “Just have a few beers and your anxiety will go away. Ok. That's because a bit of alcohol tends to give everyone "liquid courage," to ask for a phone number or a date or make a public speech etc if they're a bit ... |

| They may be able stop manufacturing them, given the abundance of coins, but i think they should still be in use. What if i buy something that’s $5.63? And i only have cash? Then they round it up just like they do in Canada and anywhere else they've ditched the penny. $5.65. If it were $5.62 you'd p... |

| You mean they haven't yet? Canada got rid of the penny years ago. Yes, they should just get rid of their pennies. You can't buy anything for a penny anymore. You can't even buy anything for a nickel. Or a dime. Unless you save enough of them, but it takes ages. What? It seems dumb to get rid of the... |

| ^^^ I'd immagine that when rounding occures the store or buisness would round whichever way is more profitable for them. I'd much rather do away with cryptocurrency than cash since cryptocurrency is not an official currency, it's unregulated, & it's value keeps changing back & forth. That's... |

| I'm against the US doing away with pennies because it would increase inflation. Companies would have an excuse to raise their prices to the nearest nickel amount. 1. That assumes prices are the same everywhere. They're not. Prices vary by store as well as by Province/State as there are different sa... |
