How is it a gamble if I already know the answer? That’s not gambling. That’s going and picking up the winning ticket. trying to see how this is a bad thing for anybody. I mean, other than the person who won on the next round.

I’d go to this date and buy this ticket. I’d buy this ticket because there was no winner and next week was a 1.8 billion dollar winner

I mean this. I do truly wish you the best, but the reality is close to 50% of marriages end in divorce. With the exception of forced marriages, all of them started thinking it would last forever. Way too many divorces end with one side getting screwed. “Just be careful of who you marry” is a recipe for failure when taken it context of the above statistics. Many people are trapped in bad marriages and can’t really get a divorce without getting screwed. So that 50% number should really be higher. Every walk of life we plan for the worst and hope for the best, or at least if a person is paying attention they do. Marriage is a huge item. Plan for the worst (prenup) and hope you never need it. Either that or risk winding up as a statistic.

If you don’t get one (and are told to get one) then get screwed and look back realizing had you gotten a prenup things wouldn’t have been as bad…. Well I’ll have a hard time finding sympathy.

Also the half the assets sound fair. Until you realize that it’s possible to lose more then half without a prenup.

That’s an interesting concept

That’s exactly correct

Getting married without a prenup in today’s world is foolish. Ask marriage counselors and they will in general tell you to get a prenup. A prenup is wrote by two people and both have their own attorney. Anyone who refuses to get one or even discuss one is someone you should run from. A prenup details how a divorce AND how a marriage should run.

Also anyone who wants operating system or device level age verification doesn’t understand how bad things will get if we do that. It’s only about mass surveillance and selling of your data. It does nothing to protect kids.

Thank you

Can somebody please translate all of that for me?

That’s all that matters is the boss

Could it be problematic.? Yes but it also depends on both people involved. If she doesn’t mind it and she is OK with it Then I don’t see the issue. It’s two consenting adults. It also depends on whether or not his wife knows it. Better statement is he even married. Another question are other people around when he makes the jokes? See these are all contextual issues that I don’t know the answer to.

You do say that there are other people around or, at least you are around. Here’s the question of other people have heard it. Do they have issues with it? Again does she have an issue with it?

In a word, yes

First moon landing. It shows what we are capable of

i mentioned this to another person but I’d suggest watching this video.

i personally think a lot of people experience a slow down in sex because they don’t understand how a sex drive in the opposite gender even really works and sometimes they don’t even understand their own sex drive. she has a ton of videos hopefully you find some of them helpful.

not trying to attack you just wanted to provide a reason why physical intimacy goes down over time.

just a thought, take a look at this ladies video. it’s aimed at both men and women to help figure out why intimacy either isn’t there or has slowed way down.

i highly recommend having your partner also watch that video along with a ton of her other videos. she is really really good.

i hope it helps you and your partner.

You can’t. You can talk about it but there is zero ability to make them believe.

Here is a tip, going on Lemmy is about the last thing you should be doing

Not sure what “fptp” means

But a legislator can vote how ever they want. There is no law that stops them but as another mentioned, if they don’t vote the party line then they can expect the party funds their opponent.

The people who down voted you don’t really understand how world history has played out. You are absolutely correct if the US fails you’ll just have somebody else.

No idea of why you got down voted. You are simply saying you couldn’t do it but wouldn’t judge others for doing it.

Down vote here seems strange

Read some of the comments in response to my comment. You will see people are including in lottery winners to this conversation. And no one said lottery winners weren’t part of the conversation. In fact what they were saying is all wealthy people. Let me say that again, all wealthy people.

I’m just going to respond to the tldr.

I’m very small reasonable percentage. But that’s for me to decide what is reasonable. Not anybody else. After that, I’m going to live a better life and yes, I’ll hire people on to do stuff that I don’t want to do or not capable of doing. And I’m going to travel the world and see things that a lot of people can’t do. I don’t have to share beyond that. So I guess I’ll just go get fucked, but hey, you know what I don’t give a shit. As long as a person is sharing a reasonable percentage of their income, that’s good enough. Telling a person to share so much that they can’t afford to pay other people to do the stuff they don’t want to do or aren’t capable of is in my opinion, just stupid. Tell me a person to share so much that they can no longer travel around the world and see nice things and live a better life in my opinion is just stupid.
