You're literally here talking about them talking about her.

I know it's subjective, and not denying your experience. But for other readers, the og Linkbuds are hands down the most comfortable headphones I have ever worn, without exception. I sometimes even forget I'm wearing them.

Obviously your mileage may vary, but if they sound like they might be your thing, it's worth giving them a go, especially with the crazy low sales atm

At the moment it looks like what the market is demanding. A few years ago specialisation was in

Crumbs is such a cute name, but a little small when he's the whole loaf

Are you also against diverse representation in media? That's been pushed for years, and to an extent we've succeeded. There's no reason we can't do the same for male role models

This is the pick yourself up by your bootstraps version of raising a child. You can't seriously expect a 12 year old to have enough wisdom and initiative to do this? Why do we have this unrealistic expectation that men are super capable and just choose to be failures? It's the same system that fails everybody else, that's also failing them

That reply is pretty measured considering the topic of women's preferences was already set. They weren't going out of their way to hate on women.

People can be pretty shallow creatures, men and women alike. So obviously, whilst money or beauty is not the be all and end all, it allows people to make a better first impression and pass some initial filters. Denying that is just deluding yourself.

Obviously there are always going to be exceptions, some people are actively repulsed by wealth or the current beauty standards

I think there's a line where it crosses over. Being "in shape" definitely makes you more attractive to women. Being anything above that definitely appeals more to men, and for many women even makes you less attractive

I don't think you've missed anything. Reptiles are particularly good for mobile zoos as many don't stress easily and don't require (or in some cases actively hate) large enclosures. Tegus, Monitors, and more intelligent lizards actually seem to enjoy, or at least show interest in, people and new places.

As long as the keeper is responsible and takes good care of the animals I don't know what exactly the problem is

Springtails and certain mites also love to eat fungus. I use them to keep mold under control in my terrariums

The main issue with YouTube premium is the price, I can't imagine that they're making anywhere near $14 a month from showing me ads that I never click on. I'd love to see a breakdown, including how much is subsiding free users, how much is going to creators, and how much is going into the pockets of shareholders.

I think like most if not all of the people I know would easily pay $5 dollars for premium
