  • When I look at the source code of your comment, I see that you are trying to say:

    The Expanse Series
    Enders Game
    We are Legion (We are Bob)
    Murderbot Chronicles

    If you would like single-spaced line breaks, like the list above, you need to leave 2 spaces at the end of the line. That shows that the line-break is an intentional part of the formatting, not just a word-wrapping issue.









  • It’s not my intent to discourage you! I just mean it’s one thing for Furniture Co. to get sued out of existence, it’s another thing entirely for Captain Aggravated (the actual human) to get sued out of house and home.

    I know that for large pieces, as long as you provide instructions and sufficient hardware to attach it to a wall (like an L-bracket), it also reduces the chances that you (or the company) could be found at fault.

    It’s very not likely to happen, but if something awful happens, you do want at least some barrier between yourself and litigation.

    Again, not trying to get you to stop building things, just encouraging you to CYA.



  • Not sure on what country you’re in, but look into the ramifications about selling something as an individual compared to spending a bit of money to sell things as a corporation.

    Furniture companies have been sued for furniture falling on and killing children, which is something that you don’t want to be liable for.

    Also, if you have more than one person involved with selling things such as an artisan shop, and you’ll want more than a hand-shake deal about things like payment, hours required, pricing, etc.

    Also, there could be tax reasons, depending on how much you sell.

    …but maybe that’s what you mean by “business plans”


  • I met my husband in real life. We knew each other like 5 year before but fell out of touch, and a mutual friends had said something along the line lines of “You’re gay now? That’s weird, because I think that ______ said they’re bi now?”
    Their phrasing could have been better, but it worked out in the end.

    I have dated guys off of sites that were used mostly for hook-ups. I put that I was open to dating on my profile, having non-sexual pictures as well as nudes. If someone opened with “nice cock” you know what they’re after, but I was always sure that it was clear about what the situation was before we met up.










  • I have one sister who follows a religion (Christianity) that treats women as less than men, and she was completely fine with in into her mid-thirties. She now seems conflicted about it, but her devotion to the religion is stronger than her desire to be treated equally.

    Does it bother you to live in a community that grants you fewer rights because of your reproductive organs? Does it impact how you follow your religion?
