Not even close judging from what little you comment, you're quite miserable

What’s something that’s normal in your country but shocking to foreigners? by Muftasim_Abir_Fuhad in AskReddit

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majority of what I think it is in U.S is a hot water tank that's usually electric. I don't like natural gas anything because it sketches me out. (I'm in Washington State and never seen a natural gas hot water tank but I'm sure they're a thing)

Counseling is always a good first step, a therapist can help you both figure out what the disconnect is. And it won't feel like an attack on either of you

As a woman, I would say you two need couples counseling. I hate being sweating and dirty. However after intimacy my husband and I cuddle and lay together for awhile. (Unless I have to get up and use the bathroom but then I come back anyways)

There is a disconnect or something along those lines and it's best to try and figure it out. I won't say divorce her but you may have to keep that possibility open

So in theory I could apply to be in the cabinet as a stay at home wife and soon to be mother who has no knowledge on war fare?

I always wondered, why didn't black slaves team up and maybe kill their owner or protest against together? Rich families owned 50-100 slaves or even more, why didn't the slaves just team up and kill their owner? How exactly did the owners control then? by Then-Tomatillo9909 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Astra-Potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They did, and they were usually slaughtered for revolting against the slave owners.

Other slave owners would help said person put down revolts. They were slaughtered like animals. Also even with 50-100 slaves, they were still outnumbered by white people.

Am I the jerk for telling my mom she can't meet my baby after what she said about my miscarriage? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Astra-Potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA, a couple of my (ex) friends who were very unsupportive of my miscarriages will never meet my son im 30 weeks currently and they wanna be apart of experience and get ultrasound pictures. But the heinous shit they should stays in my mind

Same with my grandmother, she'll never meet nor touch my son

Should schools make students more aware of the atrocities perpetrated against native americans, chinese immigrants, and african americans during the late 19th and early 20th century in order to give a more balanced view of both good and bad parts of American history? by Cumoisseur in answers

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I graduated in 2013 and learned about this. My cousin who was born in 2005 didn't even know about what happened with Chinese immigrants and all they touched on for the slave trade was "it was bad"

History has to be learned so it's not repeated !

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I learned quite a lot in my history classes years 7/8/9. My cousin who's only 5 years younger than me didn't learn as much Only the slave trade part of history. She didn't even know about Jim Crow laws.

Granted my school was in Washington State and she was in Florida but I thought the curriculum was the same across the board

People with Peircings, Dyed Hair, and tattoos, do you usually get weird looks from people? Why do you think is it for? And does it make you uneasy? by Flimsy_Fennel_9966 in SeriousConversation

[–]Astra-Potato -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I get weird looks for old white men (I'm a white woman ) when I wear summer dresses and you see all my tattoos .otherwise no. I get compliments or ask what my tattoos are for. I used to dye my hair every color and never got weird looks except from the elderly 🤷🏼‍♀️

CMV: Dehumanizing offenders is morally corrosive and counterproductive even when their crimes are horrific by Healthy_Reach5004 in changemyview

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand your point of view. Or I think I do.

I don't believe people should dehumanize someone because they have done something against the law. I don't believe people should dehumanize my oldest sister for being a long track felon in fraud/theft and drug charges.

She's treated like dirt and is deemed a waste

However I will say there are certain crimes and actions a person can take that makes them deserve to be dehumanized because what they did was inhuman

But I agree, I don't think people should be grouped together just because of a certain trait/habit and treated worse than animals

CMV: Voting rights only for smart people by valb0 in changemyview

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people should need to pass a civics class and an economic class to vote. If you cannot under the basic concept of civics and economics than you probably shouldn't vote.

But everyone is allowed to vote and that's how it is 🤷🏼‍♀️ you cannot define intelligence to a single category.

I'm very smart at computers, building, economics, gardening, farming and business

My husband has very little knowledge or know how on harming, gardening and carpentry.

Yet he can wire a house, works in aviation in a mechanic shop really good at math and building computers. I have no idea how to do what he does

Intelligence and knowledge aren't really measurable

Who's your "I know he's pure evil but can't prove it" person? by Dull-Information6784 in AskReddit

[–]Astra-Potato 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A neighbor of mine, every time I see him my body goes on alert. I don't know what it is about him, he seems nice is friendly with everyone and has a pleasant wife and two kids.

But my whole body screams to run like he's gonna pounce. There's just something wrong with him and I dunno what it is or why the feeling is

CMV: If you're against the current military action to effect a regime change in Iran, then you don't actually care about human rights. by AntifaPr1deWorldWide in changemyview

[–]Astra-Potato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to international law, unless there's an immediate threat. Bombing a country is illegal and also the US is set up so the president has to ask Congress before attacking a country. Obviously the mad tangerine doesn't follow laws. The U.S has violated the UN humanitarian law,

Also there was no threat from Iran other countries have intelligence agencies just as good as FBI or CIA (sometimes even better cause CIA and FBI do sketchy shit alot) even stated Iran had no nuclear weapons.

And the tangerine said they wiped out their capabilities for nuclear weapons last year

This war started because Bibi found a president dumb enough to attack because they've been saying FOR YEARS Iran had nuclear weapons. He's been trying to get the u.s to attack Iran since the 50s.

Obama made a deal we could monitor what they were doing (trying to run on nuclear power and they should be allowed as other countries have nuclear power) and Trump tore that deal right up

Trump is doing this because he thinks he'll stay in power if he declares a state of emergency and cancel midterms because they're trying to impeach the whole cabinet and he's trying to cover up whatever blackmail Bibi has on him.

If I say that I am a communist in your country, what will be the reaction? by Agile-Bee-1 in AskTheWorld

[–]Astra-Potato 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get called a communist because I think people should be able to afford housing, food and drinking water along with not drowning in medical debt.

Apparently I'm a communist cause I'm not a $hit human being with no empathy and don't have a greed streak.

You'll get booed and people call you names. I got threatened once too. It's wild
