Yeah i was half awake, a bit harsh ig.

Maybe a better formed argument is that getting into a marriage legally is way too easy compared to the legal process of leaving one. Even if you have all your things in order and everything is completely amicable the dissolution can be a a very drawn out process, especially if you can't be present in the state you were married in.

The part about being in a hospital, only applies if the partner is not conscious, otherwise they can consent. Some other counties have another method for this where if you've simply lived together long enough those sorts of protections exist. So yeah you have a fair argument in the US. Is it a valid reason for legally formalizing your marriage? That's up to you and your partner to decide.

I think my major annoyance is that people put emotional value into the legal matter of marriage as though law and the state had some interpersonal value.

Socially it's an excuse to party with everyone you love.

Legally it's only worth it if you have kids, plan to migrate countries, or have shitty immediate family among other things. But if you're just in a long term relationship with your finances otherwise separated, no kids or end of life concerns, ~~then it can be somewhat detrimental as you're just inviting the state in to meddle with your life.~~ it's just a formal interaction with the state.

The technical complexity of showing a chronological feed of posts from subscribed accounts? Are you asking for one to scoff at thou peasant? You might as well request a toaster without bluetooth BAHAHAHA! BEGONE!

How did my boss come to embody every other department/group that you work with!? Literally one guy, fighting with himself about the ideas he wants and failing to communicate it while complaining that the solution should be simple and easy while making meetings drag on...

It's shelf stable in the same way as a clay pigeon.

I get it now. I was kind if skipping some context. I was saying under legal means sharing books is fine and good(not paying for it). e.g. going to a library. But you can certainly copy books and distribute them. I posit that it's nearly always ethical to do so. Whether or not it's legal is a different question and depends on the material in question.

Beyond missing the subtext...

I don't actually read all that much. I'm excruciatingly slow and i don't currently commute. Most of my reading was on public transit or camping. But the authors i like just happen to either be ok with sharing copies of their work or it's available for free anyways. That said I've bought maybe twenty books in the last decade...

Textbooks from exploitative publishers especially i refuse to pay for. E.g. Wiley, pearson, McGraw-Hill, etc... As well technical publications and journals.

The great Gatsby was provided by school when i read it. All the books were in my k-12. Most the students couldn't afford them.

No this would be rage bait for trump cult members.

The idea is expressed for catharsis. It's only going to push awful people further into caustic masculine behaviors. So it's not actually directed at them, its target audience is other folk who have to deal with their awful behaviors.

As long as you're not unnecessarily approaching strangers in public and you build trust in your personal relationships then you can safely ignore it.

Edit: actually you kind of need to once you understand the problem being described or your mental health will take a severe hit. Talking from experience here...
