I think they’re implying that it can be rude to broadcast someone’s age, since some people like to be private about it.

The passive and undiscerning types (the majority) stayed on reddit and the more ambitious and deliberate types came here. But where would users for this specific format come from if not largely reddit?

I’m attracted to femininity, first and foremost. Femininity is a requirement, and it’s not flexible. But then there are other more flexible preferences about specific appearance or personality details I might like in a woman.
I’m fundamentally attracted to women and turned off by men. It’s the simplest way to describe my sexual orientation. The fact that I’m not attracted to all women doesn’t change that.
Newspapers report facts in one section and editorial opinions in a different section. They are clearly compartmentalized from each other. They are both useful. The editorial staff has a long history of making presidential endorsements. We’re free to disagree with the endorsement, they are not telling us what to think, just giving us a perspective to consider among all the others we hear.
What the Post did is highly abnormal. It’s not like the editorial staff decided out of nowhere to write up this endorsement. They did because it’s an automatic thing they’re expected to do before elections.
Think about watching a sports broadcast. There’s typically two guys, one reporting play by play (facts) and the other adding color/analysis.
I’m not going to start being an asshole out of nowhere but I will go after an asshole and tear them apart. I will never be mean or rude to someone who seems nice. And of course I won’t make fun of someone’s looks or weight or gender or race. But I do make a lot of jokes on other topics and people probably perceive me as rude sometimes when I don’t intend it. I don’t think it’s wrong to be a looser version of yourself here than in real life. Within reason.
$6 for this garbage. Taco Bell used to be a decent guilty pleasure but it’s become expensive trash now.

It was 13 years ago but I still can’t forget the typo.
A friend posted a link to something and mentioned me saying “you’re hyper literal brain will like this” and when I got done being annoyed about the typo I realized for the first time I am excessively literal.
Another time at lunch with a friend she mentioned in an offhand way that I have anxiety and that was when I first realized what anxiety is and that it’s not normal to feel the way I do all the time.
There are a lot of well meaning but annoying bots here who automate posting tons of links, but the problem is there’s no quality control so the good submissions get buried in a lot of low quality noise.
What’s even the best case scenario of eating McDonald’s food?
Nothing is strictly necessary, you can tell instead of show any aspect of a relationship. But if drama is going to show a representative cross section of what human relationships are like, sex will be a part of that like romance and friendship aspects are.
They’re more biologically necessary. They are less important to storytelling.
Drama is largely about character relationships and sex is a part of that. There’s rarely any drama to our necessary biological functions. Pooping can be part of a story’s plot like sex, just much less often.
The sex scenes that most mainstream dramas have traditionally had are brief and not explicit.
Sex is an important part of one’s life, bowel movements aren’t. (Hopefully)
Writing a story and having to make my characters not want to have sex because of the existence of an unrelated industry outside the context of their universe.
Striking out any gambling references in my stories because of the rise of online gambling.
Then I realize I’ve stupidly written scenes where my characters eat, having forgotten like a stupid hack how many restaurants there are in the real world.
I’ll use it for now while it’s good and ditch it if/when it enshittifies just as I ditched Reddit and Twitter. The mistake I won’t repeat is relying on it. If I have to bail, it won’t be difficult this time.
