    Yeah. I do want my partner to want to be themselves and be my partner. That's a great point.

    I don't view non-monogamy as amoral or immoral either. I view it as a compatibility issue. I'm not sure what would happen if the two collided and my soulmate was polyamorous!

    I really just like the idea of serendipity as a concept, less the reality. I have someone that recently described me as "lovesick" for them. They could not be more wrong. There definitely is someone that I think about and wonder how, even when we are long-distance from each other, we keep living very parallel lives. It's interest.

    I sort of like confirmation bias when it comes to a partner though. I want a real partner who will have my back on everything and anything. I don't think monogamy is a default universally. It's a choice I make personally to make things less dramatic and complicated. Usually.

    Burnt out by the meanness on reddit. I got trolled in a way I found unforgivable and bailed.

    I actually love the taste of absinthe. But, I feel strange admitting that now that I have read the and dirt description which is definitely not wrong.

    Oh, wow. We did something similar with seafood once. I'll spare everyone the details. It was in there for about three weeks before it was found though.

    I am actually convinced that people with disabilities of certain types might need the internet MORE than non-disabled folks.

    For the record, I am biased. I am blind. I was pretty visually impaired most of my life and lost the rest of my vision as an adult. The internet is challenging, but doable. However, all of the things I use to use the internet I found when I was partly sighted or through friends with sight because it is a nightmare to just randomly search the web blind. I can do it. Google is accessible, but you never know about the sites you are going on being friendly or not until you are there.

    North Carolina man missing 43 years found in car pulled from lake. This always fascinates me when they find cars and people years later.

    Investigators following up on leads going back 43 years have found human remains in a 1968 Pontiac recovered from a lake in North Carolina.

    I don't feel helpless.

    Trust me, the things her family will go through for the next 90 days and then for years to come are worse than anyone can imagine. They may not feel it now. But, they will.

    I didn't say conspiracists. I said old and white. They mostly will line their pockets on the backs of the click-baiting and all of the media coverage that is to come. It's an old game. The technology may change, but in the end, it's still the same money heading the same directions. The media and the conglomerates make a lot off of death. It's really sad, and really true.

    Still giving you my up-vote and agreeing you can't wish racism away. But, in the kindest words possible, you're doing it wrong.

    So is anyone holding Sandra Bland up as some sort of jedi-mind-trick.

    Publicizing the horrible nature of her death does what? Raises awareness that cops are bad? Or that racism still exists?

    The only real thing that that publicizing her death will accomplish is to: widen the schism, torture her family with the constant reminder, and line the pockets of some fat, old white dudes who turn it into a grand conspiracy. She, nor I, nor you, nor anyone else will benefit from the level of attention that it is receiving and the manner in which it is being received. Nothing will change. Except we will live knowing there was nothing we could do for her.

    I appreciate your pointing that out, but this has always been my argument. During the civil war and previous, there were white people and other races than black hung for treasonous acts and for theft for attempting to assist slaves.

    I like the reddit comment you posted, but I think we all end up losing site of an end game of equality.

    Not to sound like a jerk, but ranting and raving about how different things are and how "all lives matter" vs "black lives matter" doesn't get us anywhere. Not that that is what you personally are doing, but that further divides things. That supports extremism on both sides. How is supporting the ends of the spectrum going to help keep the balance?
