@georgetakei Bad situation all around. I would contact the host privately and respectfully decline, giving my reason without judgment and asking if they’d be interested in a more personal get together later, if it seemed necessary.
I have allergies, so I can see both sides. Vegans have strong aversions to eating meat (by anyone) that aren’t as deadly serious as allergies, but should be respected in their own home.
Absent a major illness or long-term job loss, three months is not a stay; it's moving in. If it's her boyfriend, she needs another one. Might be what he was trying to tell her with this stunt. This guy has issues she doesn't need to live with for life.
@georgetakei Nike Flip Flops, and in upper class neighborhoods, Birkenstocks. Wealthy neighborhoods don't allow ice cream trucks, they just hire catering events for their kids.
@georgetakei I do not see much discussion of the approach of having a conversation with the other person where you explain how their behavior (lack of initiation of social situations) make her feel and giving the other person a chance to talk.
Might be a little more productive than a more passive approach, giving the latter might verge on passive-aggresive depending on context.
The #SCOTUS is merely correcting our misunderstanding of the Constitution. You thought "execute the Office" was about faithfully following the laws? Silly you. Execute means kill and now the #PRESIDENT can kill his office and any laws (or political opponents) he doesn't like. No idea why it took the six of them over 100 pages to explain such a silly little mistake.
This week’s Just for Xeets and Giggles is out, and MAGA billboards remain unintentionally funny. For the whole collection, see the link in the replies!
@rbreich Please stop attacking our own. The polls have been proven wrong so many times, they are manipulated. Give Joe a couple weeks to prove himself. We need to appeal to Independents, not the far left Ds. We need to focus on reminding voters of Trump's character, convictions and the insurrection. If you care about polls then do your own but ONLY poll Independents in swing states. And we need to stop letting the media manipulate us.
