In case you missed it: I talk insurance affordability, risk based pricing and managed retreat with @jacktame on @NZQandA

@sprstephen Lol my boyfriend drinks in a very loud way and it's my #1 complaint about us living together

@Charteddaily Yeah i sometimes have issues with other noises too but eating / drinking is the worst

@statssstudent @whitesavage6 Yeah this is less bad

@LewSOS @danielneljack I think I can't live there for this reason

@whitesavage6 For some reason I think wet sounds are worse than dry sounds for me.

@AvidCommentator I think I have quite bad misophonia

It makes me feel like cockroaches are crawling over my skin but that didn't fit in the box

@nzsd And a country that loves admin and bureaucracy

@Kellieherring @TomTraversIII @CartoonsHateHer I dunno this just seems like extra words. Which gentle parenting seems to love but also seems quite unnecessary

@visakanv see also: most personal finance content creators

@CartoonsHateHer Do you mean like, they don't have a good division of labour? Or their marriage is shit in other ways? Because I think a lot of people would say that the thing that is up is exactly what they keep talking about (unfairness)

@CortyNC Intense crab phobia?

@rwlesq @CartoonsHateHer Yeah it's probably a bit of both for most people.

@rwlesq @CartoonsHateHer Sure. But also the kind of person who becomes a neurosurgeon might not be the person suited to not working (especially once kids are in school) so even if you're also making $500k and don't need her money you might recognize that she will be happier if she has an outlet

@CartoonsHateHer Do you think it's about the money, or the mental stimulation (i.e. they want their wives to engage with the adult working world either because it makes them a more interesting partner, or because they think its good for their wives to be mentally stimulated in this way) or both?

@wanyeburkett I'm confused - aren't you saying in your original tweet that they couldn't conceive of this?

@wanyeburkett Why is it not equivalent?

@PronouncedHare I've heard a few interesting stories about the unions from my brother and based on that, I 100% agree that they are not there for the patients. Which is fine! But let's be honest about that and also allow others to advocate for the patients even if that goes against the unions

@AbsentHog That was my vague impression as well but I'm not very well informed on this front
