  • Just be careful that you’re both designating each other as a beneficiary on any insurance, 401K/other retirement vehicles, or other assets (stocks, bonds, housing, accounts etc). If she’s not legally your spouse, she’s not going to be automatically entitled to any assets if she’s widowed or vice versa.

    You both may also want to have a will or power of attorney clause given to each other in case of medical issues which prevent someone from communicating their own will. Family members get the right to act on behalf of their family, but they can’t do anything to help or protect if they’re not legally related in some way. Some places have clauses for common law spouses, but not all do, and not for all circumstances.

    I am listening, I think it’s a case by case basis and generalizations just alienate people instead of making them empathetic or sympathetic.

    I also know that people tend to downplay women’s concerns as part of misogynistic histories, so I am mindful of that too. I do my part to speak up against these kinds of patterns when I see them

    Edit I am just giving my pov, I wish there was a way to know which approach is more helpful.

    Edit 2 but yeah, I tend to generalize too, so I get the need to do it when something annoys you enough

    I am not browsing anything which has ads anyways, I don’t even watch tv anymore

    Edit to clarify what I mean by “tv”, I mean anything including streaming services. I just watch movies, and I am thinking of just using a projector and a wall. Not sure why I even have a physical tv anymore











  • According to CIA analysts interviewed on PBS, the US currently has all the necessary conditions for civil war to break out (based on their studies of civil unrest, worldwide)

    I wouldn’t believe that, tbh. There are a lot of non-US parties interested in that, and so it’s natural that someone would lead them to believe that.

    Sometimes you see the writing on the wall, sometimes someone writes there specially so that you will see it.
