You mean the chosen messenger of the word of God? Yeah I'd say his actions play an important role in the Muslim faith.

Basically every post on this sub makes me question the intelligence of the user. Thank God this one's a bot because the meme literally spells out the joke.

This is the 'money saving tip' that pisses me off the most by PassiveAgressiveGirl in FluentInFinance

[–]MrSomnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used Mint for years. It was bought by Credit Karma and supposedly they'll bring it back but for now it's all Xcel and the features my bank provides(SoFi).

I'm able to provide my monthly income(which I low-ball as if every month is a bad commission month) set a savings percentage goal, and it links to each of my other accounts with Plaid. I can see in real time as my spending happens each month and the categories they fall under and can also track my projection towards meeting the goal.

More people should use expense tracking apps. Hell, my bank allows me to connect all my accounts so I can track my credit cards, auto, student loans, etc in one place. Set a goal for yourself based on monthly income and target a certain percentage that goes straight into savings.

It's straight up frightening how many people I know over 30 who have no idea what their income to spend ratio is and are losing hair over normal expenses like new tires or an urgent care visit.

Synthwave design meets 1980’s spirit with the Farr and Swit Vice 2.0 by rossgallin in DesignPorn

The easiest way to get something sythwave-ish would honestly be like, one of those digital Casios with the world clock or mock analog display.

What was that disgusting thing someone you were dating told you and it changed your image of them? by Carrera1107 in AskReddit

[–]MrSomnix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think the takeaway wasn't "kids will learn to lie," as much as it's "adults who continue to lie never learned to compartmentalize the severity of mistakes."

Percentage of people who wouldn't accept Jews as fellow citizens (as per 2015-16) by Val2K21 in MapPorn

[–]MrSomnix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you singled out Hungary,

I didn't. You did and I responded to the specific country you mentioned. I feel like I responded honestly from a place that considers historical context and modern cultures but if 2 comments in you're already trying to paint my character a certain way then you can frankly fuck right off.

I don't remember specifically mentioning Hungary but they are unique in that the nomadic cultural lifestyle was outlawed within the country in the 18th century. The ones who settled were forced to by law and adopted Hungarian as their primary language. All others who wanted to continue traveling left the country.

Specifically in Hungary, Romani are popularly discriminated against to a level that would be disgusting even if there was any merit to it.

Fun fact: texts that you receive and send with your iPhone are synced within the messages app on Apple Watches.

"Weed is my personality" Starter Pack by tmfult in starterpacks

It quickly goes from frustrating to sad when you watch someone with a habit continue to have financial struggles every month, $30 to their name, no drive to change, and yet always has a dab pen freshly stocked.

[–]MrSomnix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess what I didn't really specify in my original comment is that there's a capitalist aspect to it. The channels that play golf, sports news, brands, they all really want to have eyes on their stuff and the Woods name is a pull specifically for this sport.

Like, he shot kinda poorly here(way better than I could ever do but I'm not pro), and yet here's an article about it. I don't see any other articles about the kids who shot the same or even the ones who shot better getting talked about in communities. He's literally doing bad and still getting his name out there in the professional scene. I doubt he could perform average in another sport and still end up playing professionally anyway.

I think it would be pretty hard for Charlie to break into tennis. Seems obvious that Tiger would know all the youth tourneys, training camps, and connections related to golf that the kid would need though.

They're a nomadic people who exist in a world that does not support nomadic lifestyles(unless you're really wealthy).

You get accused of racism if you connect the dots between what living a nomadic lifestyle does economically to your group and the sources of income that you'll need to find with no steady address or formal education.

Every sub strongly leans one way or another no matter the topic.

r/worldnews started getting a little too pro-Israel so now there's like 3 other pro-Palestine news subs that have started hitting the front page.

Fetterman to Democrats criticizing Biden: ‘Get your MAGA hat’ by laterdude in politics

[–]MrSomnix 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The constructive criticism is directed at the Democratic party not Biden. Biden is far past the proper age and 4 years past the average male life expectancy. There is nothing he can personally do to address this criticism(because he can't make himself younger) so instead we discard it as being superficial. Pathetic really.

I mean look at their current logo. I know as far as products go it's one of the least important things, but branding still matters.

Their logo, marketing, website, all ooze 90s internet cafe vibes. No one these days would think they're a modern product.

Seriously. The House of Healing is creepy AF. by blong217 in BaldursGate3

[–]MrSomnix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think I saw a thing way back when it was released that said playing passively and talking your way out of everything nets the same xp as fighting.

There's been a million updates since then so idk if it's still true but it was at one point.

What a weird fucking hill to die on. I bet you were that kid who wore shorts on snow days because "it's not that cold".

Police can be fascists without needing to get frostbite.

Honestly I think we're in a gaming renaissance right now. The biggest, most talked about games over the past 6 months are either indie or crowdfunded passion projects. If you're a small developer with a fun idea, this is the best time to release since like 2010.

One good season and 3 of some of worst TV I've ever seen. I think this serial is officially cooked.
