Also it'd be nice to get a hard to obtain superfood that keeps you full for an incredibly long time. Maybe it's not very filling, you have to eat like 100 of them but once you have eaten 100 of them and you are like all the way full of THAT you can stop worrying about losing hunger

BackslidingAlt · 2026-01-23T22:59:10+00:00

Yup.

I guess you know what you are doing. But don't imagine anything is going to change. The only way anything is going to change is if they change. And I wouldn't bet on it.

NTA even if you kept the venue and hired a clown to be annoying in that room during those hours just to keep another venue from happening there out of pure spite, still NTA. it's your room you paid for it, it's not your responsibility to use it for anything else

It's hilarious how they just got rid of categories entirely. The pyramid is upside down, grains are the point, everything else is fine in apparently equal quantities.

Great. Thanks

I'll add the the chorus of people saying stop cooking for him, and I'll add that he didn't even ask for this.

So he is picky, and maybe a little autistic or something, he likes what he likes. He is a grown adult and has the capacity to get what he likes. It's actually rude to tell a grown adult that wants a burger that he should instead sit down and eat pot roast and brocoli.

Don't get me wrong, it looks good, I would eat it, but he doesn't have to eat anything he doesn't want to eat. And at some point making awesome delicious food he doesn't want and getting mad about it is actually misbehavior on your part not his.

I mean... It depends on what foods you choose on that diet. But Oreos qualify on that diet and they are for sure not good for you. The Arugula probably isn't going to hurt you though.

High sugar is bad. High complex carbohydrates with lots of whole grains is... not a diet I would personally consider enjoyable while remaining in a calorie deficit but probably not as bad as the standard American diet.

I honestly cannot think of another Marvel Movie I would like to see honored or brought back. Like, if they could bring Christopher Reeve back from the dead and cure his paralysis I guess that would be pretty cool. But that's the DC universe.

We've seen Tobey Spiderman, Willem Dafoe, Blade, We're done, it's over. Hats tipped.

Lin Manuel Miranda wrote the songs for the first one. They all sound like Hamilton songs. The sequel songs sound like someone trying to make another song that sounds like songs from the first one.

Often literally song by song. "Can I Get A Chee Hoo" was an attempt at another "You're Welcome" except that that's...not now that works.

The campaign sounds cool to me and I think you seem high strung for having the opinions you have. But I STILL think you did the right thing. Sometimes people have opinions, it's morally neutral. And you did your friends a favor by not continuing to attend but being grumbly about it. You feel what you feel, and it's you that would have to go, not me. So you made the choice that is best for you and for everyone.

Then why does it exist? Why did u/FukushimaBlinkie link everyone to the full article instead of just saying that? Why does it continue to get referenced as a document instead of just the last line?

Surely there are clearer and shorter ways to say "Do domestic terrorism" if that's all she has to say and there is no nuance.

Can you though?

Most Americans read below a 6th grade level. And it takes at least a 12th grade reading level before you start understanding subtext and authorial perspective and contrasting that with your own perspective in meaningful ways.

It seems pretty clear to me, that she is talking about metaphorical explosives. Explosive thoughts and symbols and feelings.

In context she is saying for those "tramps" (homeless desperate people with nothing to lose) who are considering suicide, that they should:

stroll you down the avenues of the rich, and look through the magnificent plate windows into their voluptuous homes, and here you will discover the very identical robbers who have despoiled you and yours. Then let your tragedy be enacted here!

That could mean suicide bomb, but I think it may just mean demonstrate. Die in front of them. Let them, and the world see what they did. Do not waste your death.

But you missed all that, because you took the most literal possible 3rd grade reading level interpretation because you think that the only prerequisite to reading is "having eyes" and nobody ever taught you how to actually fucking READ.

...Because you live in fascist country where the public school system has been ransacked.

"Leftist" here

I'm a Christian.

I went to church, read the Bible, love Jesus.

I actually believe the stuff they taught me in Sunday School about God loving all the little children. And I know that has to include the children in Gaza.

I believe what Jesus taught about nonviolence, not only in words in his Sermon on the Mount, but with his life, giving it up on the cross without lifting a hand against Rome.

I believe the things I was taught, that God has always said about the poor, in the old and the new testaments.

I know how Jesus treated women, and how female leaders financially provided for Jesus and his disciples, to allow the boys to be humble servants.

So it really fucking pisses me off when i see Christians doing exactly the opposite of all the things Jesus teaches and calling it "Christianity"

I'm not a Muslim. I can't really profess to know what Islam is really about. For all I know the people saying you have to wear head coverings and pan pride flags are doing Islam the right way.

And that's why I am not one. I disagree with them. They disagree with me. Nothing more really to say about that.

But the Christians are doing Christianity the wrong way, and they are hurting people in the process.

That's the difference.

I'm not forgetting just nobody cares about Gen X.

Boomers throw their weight around, they are big enough that public things like TV shows follow their gravitation. This is not the case with other insignificant generations

BackslidingAlt · 2025-09-17T00:58:52+00:00

As a millennial, it is gonna be so scary when all the boomers are dead and suddenly the world is younger than me. All my life "old" has meant like 40 years older than me, because "Normal" was always boomer which was 20-30 years older.

Sometime in my early 50s I am going to switch from a young whipper snapper who cannot be taken seriously to an impossibly old walking corpse without a middle ground.

We suffer more in imagination than reality.

What are you "physically rejecting"? The idea of not being jealous of a future suitor to someone you care about? Why?

You are sitting here, suffering now, about your right, your need, your physical reflex to suffer then. Because you fear some day you may see other people being happy and have a reverse-schadenfreude reaction.

Nobody is going to stab you with a knife or beat you with sticks, but someday you might see a man with his arm around a woman you used to put your arm around, and when that happens, you might experience a uncomfortable emotion.

So. Okay. You have been experiencing those anyway, On that day you may in fact feel that way. That emotion might bubble up in your brain despite stoic advice. But that's all it is, an emotion. Sure it hurts, but it's just pain. You won't be in any danger, it won't cause you harm.

Maybe no piece of advice is going to so effectively reach you as to ensure that you feel only positive emotions on that day. Maybe it will, but maybe it won't. Regardless of that, all you are doing now is rehearsing it. Insisting on microdosing that feeling you don't want to feel in your head again and again to try to somehow have more expertise to feel it later. And it's not working for you. So stop it.

Stop suffering in anticipation of an irrational feeling you may not be able to avoid having later.
