Sounds like they have some nasty views irrespective of politics. Treating gay and trans people like people has nothing to do with politics.

We're a similar age. I've let go of people who voiced these views a long time ago. It's not that our politics don't align, it's the fact that they're an ignorant, offensive piece of shit... And I'm not.

Why though? Making everything US-centric helps no one. Have you started talking about one-sixteenth of an inch and tipping people?

Yes we have a dollar and it can be confused with other dollars around the world. Putting in AUD clears up any confusion there and people can do their own conversion and learn something about another country.

Why would you be friends with such an individual

Huh? No we haven't? Just put AUD next to the dollar amount.

Taxpayer funded it's certainly on the nose. But I don't have an issue with a skilled writer being paid that much. I know a hell of a lot of people earning similar who don't possess that kind of skill in anything they do. Creatives should be paid well.

I set myself a calendar reminder to play this in a few years. I'm hoping I'll have forgotten most things.

I'm torn between curating what I subscribe to here to eliminate overly negative things, with wanting to stay in the know specific industry topics and about important world events.

Unfortunately most of the important world events are negative. And my industry is a disgusting race to the bottom of the consumer exploitation barrel.

So on some days I just try to not open specific types of posts if I know it's just going to get me down. I stick to memes and comics on those days

I think a lot of sweet things taste awful. But that doesn't mean I watch people drinking Coke and can't understand why they like it.

That's because taste is subjective. I only drink things I like. Do you really think people, other than teenagers experimenting, are drinking things they don't like?

And getting black out drunk, again young people aside, is not the aim.

I think you might be a bit sheltered. Not liking alcohol or drinking is fine and normal and should be encouraged for health reasons, but you've made some big assumptions about people.

Same. I like fixing broken things. Also, if a handle breaks off a mug it becomes a pen holder etc. We're drowning in our own rubbish so I don't understand making more being fun?

Like seeing food fights in movies (which I think is the only place this ever happens), it just looks like wasteful stupidity to me.
