What's not perfectly clear from that title??? It's exactly what it sounds like! I got married on Sunday (I'm OTD ex yeshivish, and my wife isn't Jewish). I tried to make the speech standup-ish and thought some here might appreciate it.
It starts with two minutes from me, two minutes from my wife, and the rest from me. Enjoy!
When I pass Palestinian rallies (a cause I support but do not actively participate in), I also see some flags of the Iranian regime, who I certainly don't support.
What's going on at those rallies? How do the people with the Palestinian flags feel about the people showing up with regime flags? What does this look like from inside the movement?
Hey, this was my first time doing standup. I did it as the graduation of a short comedy class, but I'd like to start doing open mics.
I'm looking for feedback (of any kind. Go harsh. I know you want to) and also ideas of where to find early opportunities to perform in Toronto (open mics or any other idea). Thank you so much.
Simply put, I think that the way the brains of conservative people work is fundamentally different than the brains of liberal people.
I agree that someone could have a liberal brain and grow up in a conservative community and have conservative views, but they will let towards liberal interpretations of those views, and if introduced to a supportive liberal community will cleave to it. Vice versa with conservative brains in liberal communities.
This is why I think there is such an uncrossable divide. An example of this would be the way people relate to a strongman, or cults of personality. Some people react to statements like "I'm the most stable genius" as a sign of insecurity, and think i
This is the last time I'm putting this one up. I promise. I'm confirming that the meet is still on.
Earlier I put up a post to see if there was interest in a bunch of people meeting up and hanging out tomorrow, and there was! If you are bored or free tomorrow, come down and hang out with us. The meetup will be organized around socially distanced chats and activities (If people bring them. Some have volunteered, but it's reddit, so we'll see what happens). When not able to socially distance, please wear your mask. This meetup is for people aged 25-40. If you are of a different age group, but you want to do something like this, message me and I can try to help you set it up. I hope to make mo

I made a post about being bored and looking for friends, and it turns out there's a lot of us. This is a meetup at the park for anyone who's interested.
We will meet at the North side of the King Edward's equestrian statue at 2 pm on Saturday and find places nearby to sit and chat. If this goes well and people have fun, I hope to make this a weekly event.
If you would like to bring an activity that works with social distancing, go for it.
Originally I made this for all age groups, but I got a lot of DMs explaining why that's not a good idea. I'm new to planning social gatherings. If you are from another age group and would like to meet people, please make your own post.

I'm 33, male, and realized most of my friends are fairly busy, and I need more social outlets. I'm a teacher on summer vacation (although I need more outlets in general) and I'm going insane. Any ideas are welcome.
Edit: Based on general interest, I put up a post about a meetup next weekend. If you are interested, you can comment on it.
Hi, I was wondering if anyone knew how to escalate a complaint beyond the initial customer support online when satisfaction is not reached. Emails of relevant higher ups or suggestions on courses of action would be appreciated.
Long story very short (in case different cases would escalate to different people), a friend booked a month long reservation in central New York several months ago, when prices were comparable to the place she booked, and the place cancelled. A last minute cancellation for such a long time is a tremendous price difference. The cheapest, significantly worse accommodations are almost double, and impossible for my friends budget. She wants to be reasonable and understan
My question is basically what do you think about switching to polyamory, and what advice or thoughts do you have about it.
Here's my story. I and my wife were both raised in an extremely right wing religious group (orthodox judaism). What this means is that basically up until my marriage, neither me or my wife had much contact with the opposite sex. After we got married, we had immediate physical issues with painful sex. We went to local rabbis, and their advice was to use guilt and manipulation to coerce sex. I refused, but she still felt the guilt from her mentors and rabbis, and that further complicated the issue. Over the course of the next 2 years or so, the issue destroyed her libido
Hey, I don't know why, but I suddenly decided I should try doing stand up a few times. Not planning on anything coming of it, I don't have the time or finances to walk the hard road of trying to "make it" but I think it would be interesting to try and I might be good at it.
Has anyone tried this? Do you just walk up to any open mic and ask to be added? If so, where's a good place to try. If not, what should I do?
