I do things very similar! Write, eat, pull open doors and drawers with my left. However I grab and carry, use scissors, wipe, use a mouse, and brush my teeth with my right. Anything else is literally either hand.

This is actually called mixed-handed and I find it to be so much more useful rather than restricting myself to one handed living - I can scroll using a mouse wheel with my right as I take handwritten notes with my left. Once you start to see your ability as not being restricted by your hand choice I think you may find this fact about yourself to be super cool and unique as well as highly useful!

Also, its marketed as a children's mouth guard so it probably helps them want to wear it. Not a parent though, so I have no idea.

I miss Ugly Americans - such a fun show.

Literally most places, and depends on what you like. I think anywhere in France is the tits for delicious food (try traveling outside of Paris as well).

How often do you spam this exact comment? This is now the third time I've seen your comment. First, Second.

If I'm understanding what you're not flat out saying, I think we need a reminder that: Jews โ‰  Israel.

Genuine response, I'm not trying to argue or be feisty, I'm honestly curious:

I was raised with Zionist views and so my background and knowledge leans very pro-Israelie Jews. I'm hearing your words and when I then follow the last sentence with "so then where do the Israelie Jews go who are being claimed to take the homes of the Palestinians?" I'm brought to a drop in the path as my knowledge says that the homes they're in (not literally but same location) are their original homes. So, the question is: if we give Palestinians their homes back in Jerusalem and throughout Israel, where do those now displaced people go? Russia, Germany, Poland, etc? Those aren't their original homes either, they were displaced to there earlier and then had to flee from there eventually as well.

I would really appreciate a continuation of your reasoning or solution-ing - not as a challenge but to understand what happens after the Palestinians get what they need/want. The immediate answer displaces Israelie Jews, yet again, and it's frustrating as no one comes out and says that straight up. I think that's where a lot of the frustration in conversations comes from as the silence on that followed question leads to it being perceived as anti-semetic rhetoric eventually being answered as "fuck them - they're from nowhere and have no claim or right to any land" which eventually leads to the jump of "they're not worth anyone's time" which leads to worse.

Please note: I'm not inviting name calling or rude comments, I'm purely looking for a civil discussion to broaden my views and am open to alternative viewpoints from my own.

Kid A was genius, I'm curious on your thoughts of In Rainbows?

I agree, and I believe OP does too, but I read their post as "since we live in a world where trans people can't 100% feel safe or want to post the fact that they are trans, and we end up dating and I later find out they are trans and I did not want this in a partner, now we've wasted everyone's time when it could have been addressed from the get-go." I believe OP is trying to discuss what the best way of putting this preference on your profile without straight up saying "no trans people".

I mean, if a household that keeps kosher has two sets of everything (plateware, silverware, sinks, etc) to make sure meat doesn't touch dairy...the logic states you should have a different machine/method for excrement-related things to ensure it doesn't touch your normal plateware and silverware.

I, personally, would not be comfortable using the machine again for food related things if I found out my housemate had washed the toilet brush in our dishwasher. Poop is meant to be expelled from your body, not consumed in any way - may I remind (the royal) you how pink eye originates?
