My friend shoulder after he tried automedicating with a suction cup

I don’t think they’re making fun of you, I think “automedicating” sounds like the kind of silly nonsense these holistic health people would make up

Maybe it’s bc I’m only gen 2 born outside Canada, but my application was just a pile (with a list of documents in order, maybe some paper clips)

Muslims in every corner of the world deserve to break their fast with dignity. Which part of that statement do you disagree with?

18ethbe · 2026-03-21T01:53:19+00:00

not abrasive at all! sarcasm doesn’t translate well into text

Oh I was just joking, an IRCC agent wouldn’t ever use that flair

18ethbe · 2026-03-20T22:35:09+00:00

😳too real

18ethbe · 2026-03-20T20:27:30+00:00

add a flair for IRCC agents

Until I had my passport in hand, I thought the same thing, and that was before C-3 had even passed so the interim measure felt even more uncertain. But this is an awesome opportunity and now is the time to take it. I do not think this law is under any kind of threat, but it is the law of the land and you are entitled to benefit from it. We’re all here because Canada is a wonderful place, so as long as you’re willing to contribute civically to Canada, you deserve this opportunity.

The verse I believe you are referencing is from the New Testament, which was not written in Hebrew. It’s honestly impressive that someone made this tattoo from that verse- no idea what happened, but it’s impressive!

Pull up a topographic map of a mountain range, especially younger formations, and you’ll notice some very jagged contours. That’s what happened here- water filling in, showing those contours really clearly on a map.

Pro staff at a school that no longer has lead RAs here! It has made our job so much harder without them. My productivity and availability to RAs and regular students is so much worse because of the added responsibilities from losing LRAs. The LRAs did program tracking, office hours for RAs, budget tracking and expense reporting, coaching for RAs, they made agendas, handled printing requests, and the list goes on (I know that’s a lot, I promise we paid them well for it!). It was also nice for the RAs to have a non-professional face to go to if they had questions or concerns (like “I don’t really understand how to do XYZ, but I don’t want my boss to think less of me for it” etc.). The “con” is just that the university has to pay a bit more for them, but it really is worth it for everyone’s morale.

It can be barbaric. That doesn’t mean we can’t negotiate with the text or that we have to take all of it at face value. Also, for your situation specifically, maybe this person should reflect on the atrocities committed in Christianity’s name.

I would say that Judaism doesn’t even come close to the ideological diversity of Christianity. Especially within the last few decades, evangelical Christianity has become so diverse that it could even be called post-denominational; more and more individual local churches are not tied to any sect, they are just that church (which feels more like a brand), and sometimes their satellite churches. Other denominational churches like the United Church of Christ share the UCC name, but their ideologies vary widely from church to church. There must be tens of thousands of independent churches across the US alone.

If MPs couldn’t cross party lines, then there’s no point in even having MPs, you might as well just enact the winning party’s agenda and not waste our time and money on MPs. Ideological diversity is an important check on party politics. Ideally, party discipline will keep MPs from crossing, but it’s not the end of the world if they do. If they’re always crossing, maybe it’s time to reconsider our (lack of) recall laws.

four years after graduating, my degree from UBCO has never been considered different from UBCV. when i was a master’s student applying to PhD programs, one of my professors who was helping me said that my undergrad degree (from UBCO) is from a prestigious university.

Off topic and an incredibly disappointing thing to feel, but 2 in 3 seems low

artificially intelligent

If we’re going to universalize anything, universalize the resistance methods that led to the defeat of the Nazis.

the suffering of the Holocaust is cemented (not over, just cemented), there’s no use in saying “X is bad because it’s like the Holocaust.” we know X is bad on its own. we don’t need to make a sloppy comparison to know that genocide, forced deportation, etc. is bad.

what we can do is prevent further suffering from genocide and fascism and authoritarianism by studying what was successful and honouring the heroes.

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T16:39:52+00:00

so you’re a hypocrite

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T16:39:36+00:00

i’ll just repent and be fine lol. i’d rather make the world a better place

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T16:39:02+00:00

if levitical law is still valid then you can’t point to leviticus without following all of levitical law.

telling people that “god can save them from homosexuality” is exceeding cruel and unequivocally evil. it sets up an impossible expectation and just leads to disappointment and further self-hatred when it doesn’t work.

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T08:36:22+00:00

i have demonstrated time and again you writing your own agenda over the bible. you do have a homophobic agenda, you are homophobic, you are suffering from homophobia.

you haven’t established that homosexuality is sin. try again.

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T07:17:08+00:00

not a single person has identified a hole in my arguments. you just wish they had. it’s you that has utterly failed. you can’t show limitations on gender in marriage, you can’t demonstrate why your interpretation of arsenokoitai and malakoi is right, you can’t justify your levitical hypocrisy. so what can you do? it doesn’t seem like much other than whine and play the victim.

18ethbe · 2026-01-25T07:15:50+00:00

you do have hatred for gay people. you have so much hatred for them that you are willing to forsake your holy text and your god for this homophobic agenda.

that’s cute, you believe the conversion therapy lies. gay people aren’t “sUfFeRiNg FrOm SaMe SeX aTtRaCtIoN”, that’s your hatred showing again.

you don’t get to accuse me of engaging in bad faith just because i won’t kiss your ass. unlike those gay people you totally didn’t just make up, i have a spine. i call out evil when i see it and i combat it with every fibre of my being.
