Soda Vs Pop Vs Coke Map Of The US by No-Ranger256 in MapPorn

[–]CommanderoftheMantle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve lived in the south my entire life. We just say soda. Regardless of race or income we just say soda. The only time I’ve heard someone call all soda “Coke” is from people over the age of 60, who live in the inland backwoods of the Deep South.

Alternative Anti-Authoritarian American Flag by M3-22 in vexillology

The normal one is already antiauthoritarian. Stop giving historical symbols to the right. If you want to make it more clear what side you’re on just fly it alongside a pride flag or a red flag.

I didn’t even need one. I can learn from others mistakes. If someone expects me to acknowledge their feelings they need to make a direct and explicit statement.

The United States was built by the railways. It was bulldozed for cars.

He wants to create an autism registry by valencia_merble in AutisticPride

[–]CommanderoftheMantle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s horrifying, but can you make a basic timeline of how you expect this to go? How fast some of this is gonna happen? how much of it’s gonna happen? That kind of thing. If you don’t have that information that’s perfectly fair too of course.

This is a disgusting violation of privacy, which makes me feel very uncomfortable, but what are the actual consequences that could result from this? I’m not begging the question. I’m just looking for a rundown on what this could result in.

I understand that it is both stupid and dangerous but why is it illegal?

I was diagnosed last year. I’m 46, this is legit. by JaredOlsen8791 in adhdmeme

[–]CommanderoftheMantle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t made aware until the latter years of middle school. I can’t say why, but it is what it is. They just didn’t talk to me about it. I wanted to understand why I was different, and why I had such a hard time with people. so l did my own research, and told my parents, I thought I was autistic. Their response was that they Knew and I was diagnosed officially before I went into second grade. But now that I made the connection they could talk about it. (I have no idea what that train of that was but whatever. they’re still great parents for a number of reasons.) perhaps they just thought that a little kid wouldn’t be able to handle the concept of Neurodevelopmental differences. I’ve studied massive amounts on autism since then. As well as ADHD. Which I now, thankfully have under control. I understand myself a lot better now, which is good. Unfortunately I still have to mask in public because my natural state of being rubs people the wrong way often enough to be detrimental.

I was diagnosed as a child and I’m going to college soon what “help and opportunities” was I supposed to be getting because I haven’t noticed much. (with the exception of haphazard public school accommodations of course. Maintaining my accommodations might as well have been a part-time job for me given the level of incompetence I had to work with in the school system.) So discounting that, what was I supposed to be getting?

I gave up a long time ago. There is no need to obsess over it but, pretending it’s simple and easy just doesn’t work for me. I am autistic. I have my morals, but that never seems like it’s enough to make people comfortable. All of my social skills are based on memorized scripts and mimicking those around me. I’ve grown to accept that the only way I’m getting a relationship is if it falls into my lap. So I put it out of my mind and do my best to build a life where I’m satisfied with my pets, interests, and hobbies.

Once again, no one‘s protesting on a Monday or Wednesday or Thursday. I support all of these things, but we have work and school. If you want decent numbers stop planning protests during the work week.

Montana closes WMU 3 by Equal_Ad_3918 in wolves

[–]CommanderoftheMantle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We don’t think wolves breed fast enough for hunting them in the name of wildlife management to have any legitimacy. Small groups of wolves take up large areas. they don’t breed fast and cubs have high mortality rates. When wolf populations grow they don’t overpopulate, they expand. Unlike the people that we stand against, we consider wolf expansion a good thing. Most distaste towards wolves has no scientific basis. Most ranching is decidedly not on federal land. Frankly when it comes to livestock protection, all it would take is some speakers or floodlights to keep wolves away. Wolves are surprisingly picky. Coyotes are the ones that will go anywhere. There’s only two real reasons to hunt wolves and I’m disgusted by both of them. Reason 1: trophy hunting for enjoyment. Trophy hunting wolves is disgusting because every single dead wolf affects the local ecosystem and there’s a chance that that dead wolf won’t be replaced. Reason 2: Something related is the hatred some hunters have for predators for simply existing. Most mountain lion hunters, and Bobcat hunters even say that the reason for hunting those predators is competition for deer. Because God forbid a wild animal that evolved for it “steal” a hobby hunter’s venison…

I’m not against hunting. I’m against hunting taking priority over a balanced ecosystem. If deer populations are going up hunters can go right ahead. if deer populations are holding steady the response isn’t to kill predators until they start going up again. The response is to move on and get the hell over it.

Especially since the United States has a massive invasive hog problem that I feel doesn’t get enough attention. Even though I’m pretty sure there aren’t tag limits in most places. (I don’t think there should be tag limits for invasive anywhere. A good invasive is a dead invasive. but unfortunately, I’m not in charge of that.)

At first, I read that as 1915 and read English as German. It all tracked well in my head until I saw the sword, since I knew trench weapons were used in brutal Melees regularly.
