What's your take on having romantic relationships with single parents?
  • Tough one. As has already been mentioned, there has to be a clear line where the kids are involved - that is to say, are you going to be there for them or not?

    If it's the latter, that's not an issue. Declaring that from the outset isn't a drama - single parents aren't suddenly robots and enjoy the affection, sex, and friendship too. There's no expectation beyond that and a few hot dates, and if it does start to cross red lines then there's a clear reason to start nosediving it into the sea.

    I think leading a parent on though to the point where you're introduced to the kids and become a part of their life, and then drop the bombshell that you're after the casual or physical side of things means your actions have caught more than just the pair of you in the blast, and that just sucks.

    Honesty isn't hard, and most of the time it's pretty hot!

    e for context: I use "you" in the assumption that you're looking to date a parent - reframe it to your own view :)

  • Back to office articles.
  • I mean, it's not really a "in office" v "remote working" debate - people will slack off and make themselves look busy regardless of where they are. That's caused by a case-specific mix of motivation, discipline, or other factors. That's a line management issue rather than a work location issue - WfH just gets scapegoated for that.

    Ultimately it will be the money starting to talk - if the accountants start complaining about expensive office space not being used to its maximum, then they'll start instructing folk back to the office. It's a shit reason but unless your contract specifically says remote, it'll be the balance sheet making the decision for you (edit: unless it really doesn't work for you and you go nuclear with the "resign" button of course)

  • These are the guys you will coordinate with in your WhatsApp/Signal group:
  • The laugh is, each and every one of them can actually mean "mate what a fantastic idea, let's absolutely smash this" to the middle ground "k" all the way through to "this is the worst fucking idea I've ever heard, but no dramas we can sort that on the way".

    The end result will be the same.

  • Nintendo and Pokémon are suing Palworld maker Pocketpair
  • I don't get it. I mean I get it because it's Ninty, but I don't get why now?

    Has there been something in a major new feature update that has finally tipped the scales into clearly taking the piss, or have the legal team at Big N finally seen their erections subside after the game's launch and only now can move enough to do something about it?

  • Public Domain Software 4/89
  • I never quite understood how they got away with selling PD stuff by mail order.

    Did you effectively pay for the blank media, and the time for someone to copy data on it it - which just so happened to be public domain applications?

  • Officer Demoted After Writing Traffic Tickets Gets $175,000 Settlement
  • change the fact

    There's your failing.

    I'm not saying he did or did not see whatever supposed corruption you're saying is going on.

    However, you're trotting out the usual ACAB trope when you have the same level of knowledge as anyone else - that is to say, fuck all. There's little to support your assertion of a "fact" here at all.

    I'm not arsed one way or another whether you like cops or not, but at least make your arguments make sense.
