I could never have the opposite politics of my spouse. Sure, we may disagree slightly on some matters an nuance, but a world view in direct conflict with mine would be irreconcilable.
My partner is just slightly less left than me and I struggle with it some days. I can’t even imagine trying to date someone on the other side.
Sometimes I think about dating again after so long, and I imagine my girlfriend wanting to wiretap our place with an Alexa in the kitchen.
My wife finally gave when the latest round of spying stuff happened. I’ve been trying to get around to building new ones for home assistant that all happen on prem, but there’s a lot of knowledge gap there.
Nobody can. Egomanic psycopathy isn’t attractive to anyone but the most indoctrinated birds
Seriously I don’t understand how some people can handle their best friend and roommate being a POS
- Fear of making near friends / difficulty making the new friends
- Actual naivety of thinking the POS behaviour doesn’t matter
- Weirdly, peer pressure from other people? For instance you might want to distance yourself from one friend and you are then peer pressured to be in situations with them more often by the other friends, told to build your tolerance of them
… 1 + 2 also applies to romantic relationships!
Edit: just realised ‘best friend AND roomate’ is just a way of referring to a spouse. But there it is, there’s the low-down in my opinion.
You bond over other shared interests, like video games and drinking.
As silly as bonding over race, especially when we disagree on basic morality, but that’s sadly what happens. 😔
When politics felt like shades of policy disagreements I could see it. Now it is either you support democracy and human rights or you’re supporting pedophiles and genocide. Not much common ground anymore.
The Overton window has been busy.
Is it a roadrunner? Is it a train? No it’s the Overton window going 120 in the slow lane.
A politically charged tv channel with specifically that goal running for three generations will do that.
Most people vote for the pedophiles, though. Either through the ballot or with their wallet. They’re in politics on all sides. They’re in business. They’re on the computer they use every day. The car they drive.
And human rights. Goes out the window the moment somebody has a bad case of the sniffles. Or when brown people can be blamed for pretty much anything and everything.
It’s almost as if, the main problem isn’t the corrupt deranged elite, but the system and boot lickers that uphold them.
I’m so glad my parents and brother have (nearly) the same politics as me. Having to regularly deal with trumpers (without being able to laugh in their faces as with my co-workers) would be a perpetual torment. My brother did have an inexplicable phase of loving Putin, but that passed quickly.
Same. I couldn’t respect someone with hardened, opposite politics to me. Sex would be satisfying though.
…would it??
You never had a good hate-fuck?
It doesn’t seem appealing tbh
All fun and games until you end up pregnant.
Very little chance of that 😂🏳️⚧️
For which party and why? I would contend many people enjoy sex most when their partner is someone they respect, provided they’ve developed to a certain level of maturity. Perhaps you have an alternate rationale.
Even within dom/sub and other BDSM variations I would hope both partners respect each other because without that you’ve entered a very toxic and destructive space.
That’s my sister and husband.
your sister is your husband?
I think he means his sister reads salon and his husband is racist and also his husband and his sister are in a relationship too, it’s a classic polycule isotope.
He was poking fun at the framing. It should have been “my sister and her husband”
“My sister and husband” has the same grammatical framing as “my friend and classmate”. It denotes the same person.
Yes, I understood the joke, my comment was also a joke that it could be interpreted as “my sister and my husband”
But did you know he’s meant his sister’s husband tho¿/S
they’re very close
Saaaame. Dude would 100% support loading me into a train to the camps in the right circumstances.
“He makes me feel safe”
“By making others feel unsafe”
Bro is fighting daily to contain the slurs.
Must be containing them in his neck cus damn
The lady probably feels the same way, she just knows better than to be honest about it because she’s better socialised.
a third of hetero males in hetero relationships are the most racist man alive?
All those men also look exactly like that
They made a lot of those T-Shirts, they were on sale at Walmart, 14 for $0.88
Recent US election results don’t contradict the assertion.
If we’re going off election results it would be nearly two thirds of white men and more than half of white women so YMMV depending on which part of the country you’re in.
hyperbole
That’s a band name
theres a band named “a third of hetero males in hetero relationships are the most racist man alive?”?
“But I never heard him say racist things to me and my family”
Is salon conservative? Liberal? Something else? Im not really getting the joke here.
I think the point is that she’s just a normal women, sharing uncontroversial articles. And there is this other half of the couple you just wonder about how someone could possibly see something in let alone put up with him.
I’m personally reminded of the parents of a childhood acquaintance, with a nice mom and a father that couldn’t even be asked to close the bathroom door when guest were there.

But it feels true
I need that shirt.
Is that AI slop? One of the ugliest comics I’ve seen. A true “shit post”.
It’s not AI slop. The artist’s work and style is well-established.
Ugly ass crap.
Please do show us your comic strip work so that we might compare and contrast your styles?
No. I’m entitled to an opinion whether or not less cultured swine like it or not.
