  • Like I said, that's not reasonable behavior. They didn't clearly communicate what they expected from you, and then got angry about it. Also, if you didn't do the dishes, I wonder if they would have been angry about that instead. From what you're describing, it sounds like you made a very reasonable decision. But even if you were in the wrong (I don't think you were), it's still partly on them– ND people tend to need more concrete, direct communication, and it doesn't sound like your partner is making an effort to communicate with you effectively

    Really though, I can't imagine getting angry at someone for doing chores, unless it was super loud like vacuuming. It's not like doing dishes makes much noise.

    Why does your partner expect you to bend over backward for them, when they are unwilling to do the same for you? Why are they expecting you to structure your whole life around them, when they aren't taking any steps to coexist with you? (If something as quiet as you doing dishes in the other room keeps them up, why aren't they using white noise and earplugs? You shouldn't be expected to try to match their sleep schedule)

    Also, I still think it's a bit crazy that they expect you home by 9:00, and 30min late is inexcusable. I assume that I'm younger than you, but with my friends it's not uncommon to show up an hour late, and stay out until 1.

  • I know this post probably isn't the full story, but from what you've written, it your partner seems narcissistic and controlling. It sounds like they're unwilling or unable to extend you grace, or see things your way, but they expect you to conform to their needs.

    I think it's pretty unreasonable for them to have a curfew for you, and even more unreasonable that they're angry about you being a half hour later than they assumed. (not to mention that you were literally at a group that you chose to go to specifically to be a better partner)

    Also they get angry at you when you do the dishes, right after they told you to, even though they weren't sleeping? That's not normal behavior. A mature person would simply talk to you in the morning, not start a fight (I'm sure a fight has 10x the effect on sleep compared to distant sounds of running water for 5 mins) Even if sleep is really that important to them, it's unfair to expect you to tiptoe around them. Have they even tried white noise, or earplugs?

  • I don't understand how people would rather see ads and be tracked than flip a few switches.

    That being said, I do think TC would be vastly better if it had per app defaults that guarantee that everything works out of the box.

  • It would be like castrating the entire penis and testicles.

    More like removing the glans and foreskin, but that doesn't make it much better. There are definitely varying degrees of awfulness, but it's all bad.

    While there are some truly evil and horrific practices like removing the clitoris or sewing the vulva shut, some female genital mutation is "just" removing the clitoral hood, which is directly analagous to the foreskin.

    Most people can agree that this practice is deeply wrong, and that it is still genital mutilation. And so I think categorizing male genital mutilation separately as "circumcision" is downplaying it.

  • Yeah I just skimmed the essay, and it's pretty bad. There's a lot of false claims, a lot of misunderstandings and misrepresentations, and a lot of thinly veiled transphobic phrases and remarks.

    It just comes across as very dishonest to me. Although maybe she actually thinks she is being fair, thoughtful and caring, who knows.

  • This sequence approximates an integer to arbitrary precision, not 8 specifically though, and never perfectly.

    I tried it out using other bases, and the rule seems to be that doing this in base n results in n-2 with remainder n-1. So it doesn't ever actually converge, but the remainder becomes small very fast.

  • I've been wondering about this. It seems like it's been around for a long time, but I'm seeing it more recently.

    I kinda like the letterforms, even though the kerning and balance of visual weight are terrible. . . . . . oiter

    What is the point of the Nicole spam?
