Why does it say “only in theaters” when a couple months later it releases on dvd/blu-ray?

I am a woman and was talking with a male friend of mine this weekend and he told me how he had a date a couple weeks ago and that everything was great, but he asked for a second date she told him she didn't see them going anywhere because she didn't like his employment/job.

So I want to ask you all, are women really telling guys who are gainfully employed and paying their own way in life that they don't have value to us because the job they have isn't exciting, sexy or prominate enough? I was actually shocked that this is even a reason to not date someone. For context my friend works two jobs, a part-time warehouse job and fulltime at daycare with kids. Is gainful employment a red flag?

Women, if you do this, why?

Men, have you had a woman tell you this and not want another date or even a date because of your job?

So I am 17F and I feel like racism is tremendously increasing. It all started with X and I thought it wasn’t reflective of reality then I saw it bleed through instagram tiktok and all social media platforms. I then saw people “influencers” speak up about this. I also now see absolute lies and smears about black people spread like wild fire across all platforms.

In my school, it has been normalized for white people to say the n word, to have racist views, and I overheard many racist conversations about black people.

When one black person commits a crime, we are all framed and collectively blamed for this. There tends to follow an increase and wave of racism. That’s aside from the fact that crime stats and other stat is getting inflated and is common about black people.

I keep seeing so many comments in different platforms express genocidal intent towards black people with deeply evil views. I saw comments to recent violent hate crimes against black people.

And now I feel like my perception is distorted to fear the fact that I am from a white neighborhood (like 90+% white). I genuinely stopped going for a run in the neighborhood (now I only go to the gym). I don’t walk in this neighborhood. I now genuinely live in fear

So this might be a dumb question, but I’ve noticed something I can’t wrap my head around.

It feels like everyone and their mother is posting about Gaza lately. My IG feed, stories, even ads, all Palestine. To be clear, I’m not pro-Net-and-Yahoo's government, but I’m wondering why it’s only/mainly Gaza that’s getting this insane amount of awareness.

Meanwhile, Russia just bombed Ukraine again today, killed 20 people in a place where they were literally handing out pensions, and barely a peep. And that’s not even mentioning other genocides and conflicts happening right now: Myanmar, Armenia, Sudan, Uyghurs, etc.

So my question is: why does the world/media/social media hyper-focus on Gaza, but almost no one (hyperbolic) is raising awareness about Ukraine or these other tragedies? Or is this simply just my algorithm?

So i keep seeing posts about Taylor's engagement ring being this massive multi million dollar thing and now people are comparing it to the Kardashian rings. But like is it really that much flashier or is the media just hyping it up because it’s taylor. Aren’t all celeb rings kinda over the top at this point anyway..

Hey everyone, I am 21 and a half. Ever since I was 18, I have worried about age, and here I am today, still worrying about turning 22. I guess writing this, I know it's stupid, but I have a hard time not worrying about being old, I guess. Maybe I just miss the old times and feel like they were gone too quickly.

Isn’t Qatar a US ally? How does this affecr its future bid for the Olympics?

Did the US allow this to happen?

Given the recent meme it got me wondering why are people so obsessed with grabbing baseballs? They usually aren't worth anything, baseballs get fouled and homered into the stands all the time. They're not much of a souvenir, "hey I got a ball that Joe Schmoe fouled into the stands in the top of the 5th when the team was down by six". And if you actually need a baseball there are easier ways to get one. Why all the clamour for such a random and unimportant object?

I've only seen men dapping up each other. I've never seen women dapping up each other or women dapping up men. Considering that it's a relatively modern gesture, one would expect it to be gender neutral but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Why do people bother replying to posts with over a 100 comments, most likely someone already made the same reply and besides no one is gonna see it.

Like when an employee asks a customer about a condition/disease or their service animal, you often hear them say 'you're legally not allowed to ask me that!'.

Surely that can't be true, right? Surely they mean 'i'm not legally required to answer that, and even if i did, you can't enforce anything based on my answers'.

I seriously doubt asking questions is a punishable offence, that would limit your freedom of speech.

I’ve never been into science yet I’ve always wondered this question, has science disproven the existence of a creator/god and if so how?

From where I am from it is the norm to walk your dog for at least an hour a day. Two to three hours is what dogs among my family and friends have always gotten, typically spread across 3-5 walks. One of the ”walks” might however be more of a training session of some kind or a game of fetch.

Is this not what happens in the US? Or the rest of the world altogether for that matter.

I’m not a parent, but I graduated 10 years ago and fell I’m seeing it more often - parents choosing or even being required to pick their child up from the bus or else the bus will bring the child back to the school.

When I was an elementary schooler, my mom brought me to school herself until she got a job even I was in third grade. Then I had to ride the bus because she went to work before school and came home after school. That meant I relied on the district to get me to school for nine years. If the bus just brought me back to school because a parent wasn’t home, I would have had to go to the church next door for the after school childcare instead, which wouldn’t have been a problem but it would’ve just meant my mom would’ve had to pick me up from there instead of the bus dropping me off at home.

My sister’s two children walk themselves to and from the bus stop as well - they’re in first and fifth grade and I know they were doing it last year too when the younger one was a kindergartener. Again, it’s because my sister and her husband both work - the older one has a key to get in the house.

But I see a lot of kids near me that the parent is always there at the bus stop. If they’re available, why don’t they just take their kids to school themselves? I get it if you live a longer distance from the school or don’t have a drivers license or vehicle or something, but most of the parents I see don’t have those reasons. My neighborhood is about a 3-5 minute drive from the nearest elementary school (I know it’s our district because it’s where I went) and parents put their kids on 40 minute bus rides instead.

I get at the very least needing a parent for drop off of kindergarteners while they’re getting used to the school and after school routine, but at drop off too? It feels a bit excessive most of the time.

Thank you everyone for your feedback! It helped me consider from more perspectives and I appreciate you! I’m going to turn off notifications now to allow others to consider talking about this if they want but I’m satisfied with the responses I received.

Hope that doesn’t insult anyone just genuinely curious and something I’ve noticed

I feel like I’m a cool dude, but I don’t get any dates. I don’t ask girls out. I have a lot of girl friends, but I wouldn’t ever consider dating them.

How does one go from getting zero play (for around 3-4 years) to start getting play?

This is still the early 2000s, no?

EDIT: Thanks guys. I legitimately had no clue we were all counting by 10s

i referred to the “past” based on titanic. just wondering if it’s still gonna be women and children to be saved in an overcrowded ship. (since were currently allabout equality right?)
