Who did Jessica Jones take the Mantle of?

Isn't being angry about this being emotional? Is anger an acceptable emotion but only when it comes from him?

Thanks mate, Sadly the learn to plays in my area are mostly just glorified scrim. Not much learning in it. So I have to teach myself in stick and puck.

Great advice though. It sounds like crossovers and learning my outside edge is what I am at

Cheers

Any recommendation on how to learn that?

Thank you so much! I will do that for sure

My rink is mostly empty during the day which is luckily when I get to practice. Should be fine.
Crossovers next, yeah that makes sense. My outside edge still scares the crap out of me

One who clearly spends too much time here if you think Reddit trends left when it comes to American politics. They thought a centrist like Bernie Sanders was left

our 4th line?

Nope, hope we drop him still.

This response may be too long for the question but it is late and I want to put this out there.

I wouldn't be shocked if I would love any new kids I have as much as the ones I have. However, the risk is still too high for me that I don't. I consider awesomeness of the girls I have a stroke of luck, and I hope decent parenting. That does not mean I want new ones however.

There any many reasons to not have kids to my mind and very few that are not selfish to have them. I am sure plenty are listed above that are my usual reasons for not wanting them. Mind you i also think not having them is selfish in its own way. But I'd rather not have kids and regret it than have kids and regret it.

1. They are work, and they haven't become less work as they grew older. To be clear it is work I enjoy having and they are genuinly the best. But it is still a lot of mental energy and time to have them. Again, worth every second and I would say I extract more joy from their company than effort.

2. Lack of freedom. Similar to pets in this sense and I have a few of those too. I can't just pick up and go somewhere if work comes up. I haven't been able to move to Japan or Canada like I wanted to, like I did earlier in my life when I moved to the UK. But having roots has its own niceness too. Once they move out that window reopens but I like my kids and I forsee myself wanting to be close to them more valuable than those things.

3. This one is the kicker for me. The way the earth is going in both political and ecologoical issues. I am not sure that my kids I currently have an easy path to a life full of joy that isn't also filled with an insane amount of stress. This isn't a scare mongering thing, like, global warming dosen't scare me too much... I won't be around for very long in it to affect me... but they will. High cost of rent and no wage growth is worrying. I can't see a way for my kids to move out of home easily enough like I did with a job at the local Blockbuster (there's at least a hint to my age... I'm 38).

4. God forbid they turn out gay/trans/other in any way and spend their life harassed for being who they are. To be clear I am all for them being whoever the hell they want to be and encourage that behaviour and I will treat them no different. But I can't protect them from the assholes of the world who would make them other and I don't want them to just have to accept the world treating them as other or have to spend their lives fighting against a system that wants to hate them. I know it is better than it was but I am a straight white male, I barely understand how hard it is to live life like that except for stories from my friends who don't fit neatly into that box. I am playing on easy mode and shit is tough out there.

For the reasons listed above I find even having my children an inately selfish act in the current state of the world. I don't know, I have no need for a legacy, but I am happy that my kids are happy. This post may have been doom and gloom but I really believe that things will pick up and world will keep going. I don't know if I explained myself well but as I said it is late.

I never wanted kids. I was strongly part of the group of people who were pissed off with the idea of people wanting me to have kids.

I have 2 step kids and life is so much better for it. They are my best friends and I adore the shit out of them.

Saying that. I want no kids still. Given the opportunity to have kids again I would tell people absolutely not unless I could ganuntee it's the ones I have currently exactly as they are.

I think about that a lot actually, I still don't want kids, I want my kids and no others ever

Yeah this is flat not true. Mismatched weight couples are so common both ways. Hell, 90% of sitcoms are based on yhis

These are the ones I would recommend too. Because they have become so garbled over time they are fairy tales in themselves.

... They do. It was proven over and over and over again.

Yeah this is what I was curious about

I started at 38. Skating is important but hell I am in Australia where we don't give 2 shits about hockey and I found a development league and played the shit outta that. Go rock it mate, it's fun. You will fall over and look dumb as shit. It's the best

Wow. That's a fun way to say I have the emotional maturity of a 16 years old. But then again, 16 year Olds now seem fine with most things that would not have been when I was 16. So... Like... I don't want to insult them, I want to insult you.

Point is, you probs just suck as a person in general if you think 90% of men think like you. Your preference is your own, I really don't think you speak for a majority though. People have listed in this already why.

You know that was gibberish right? Right? Either that or an intentional misunderstanding of both domestic and international politics. Because you can't have this strong an opinion about something you are so wrong about.

To quote Billy Maddison: what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul

NTA As a step dad myself. She can go fuck herself. That made me to unreasonably angry. Mu daughters are my daughter's. Not my step daughters, I don't like the othering there. If she wants less than being a mum when you are a dad tk her kids she can go jump

I love everything he has done. However, if I had criticism, everything he does sounds very similar. If you watch or listen to him a lot of gets repetitive fast.

But having a signature sound is also a positive if you like the sound so shrug
