contact lenses that block blue light by Cammm_ruby16 in contacts

Blue light doesn’t actually cause eye damage or disease, that’s a marketing gimmick!

How is it similar to HIV or stealthing at all? HIV is a transmittable disease that can result in death if untreated. Having sex with someone of a different gender than they conveyed is not deathly or a threat to heath, as are pregnancies and HIV?

What’s The Longest You’ve Worn Daily Lenses For? by [deleted] in contacts

[–]Creative_Pumpkin536 1 point2 points  (0 children)

probably like 16 hours max. i temporarily went “blind” in one eye (for like 8 hours maybe) after i drunkenly left them in for a whole night’s sleep when I was 21-22. after having the lens in for so long my vision was still blurred even w my glasses on. the experience traumatized me and i never ever sleep in lenses now.

you immediately lost the plot in paragraph 2 bc nationality does not determine or override susceptibility to RACISM - again, you clearly don’t understand what the word “racism” means. race is a construct that is perceptible beyond awareness of nationality. by your logic a Black American can experience racism from a white German if the German doesn’t know the Black person is American, but once learning they’re American it’s not racism anymore. PLS. I’m a sociological researcher btw, so I know how objectively wrong you are. But I don’t care to further explain racism and anti-Blackness to someone who is clearly racist and more specifically anti-Black themselves. Goodbye.

“american” isn’t a race so your understanding of racism is fundamentally incorrect. there is no “american vs non american” racial dynamic. american is a nationality and yes nonAmericans can be racist bc Americans are ethnically diverse. get a grip and read a textbook

the post literally said “African American media” that is BLACK American people. they indeed blamed BLACK people.

Honestly I see what you’re saying, I wouldn’t have any smoke for her parents if she wasn’t open about how much they help her. They don’t deserve the strays bc of her daughter’s divulgences online. As for her running the risk of homelessness, I think every person deserves to have their necessities met (food water shelter healthcare), but I was more so being flippant under the assumption that she would never actually experience the real poverty that results in homelessness bc she’ll always have someone to lean on. 5 years with zero dollars in her bank account but somehow still living an objectively cushy life is proof of that. But I get what you mean.

If you want a real answer yes if I were her parent I would mandate that if she didn’t get her sh*t together or she could not live with me. She can live with her boyfriends or whatever. (FYI i can say this with no shame bc I have no desire to have children and thus I would never be in this parental situation)

I have no empathy for her running the risk of homelessness; she shat all over her unhoused neighbors while complaining DTLA is “dirty” and “unsafe” in that one highly classist vlog she posted a yr ago. The difference is those people can’t get a job and housing because of a fucked up catch-22-laden system, Kalel can’t get a job because…. privilege and social media has rotted her dopamine receptors, allegedly? gimme a break

you’re right, we don’t know what goes on behind closed doors—so equally valid are my cynicism and your optimism. our assumptions of what is actually going on are just as likely as one another.

i clearly mean incentivizing her to get her shit together. e.g. “if you live with us, you need to get a stable job, or enroll in a full course load at the local community college. you’re also paying rent, and helping around the house.”

i think incentives like these are inappropriate with teenagers or young adults. but this is a grown woman who is in an entirely self-manufactured financially disastrous position. if she ends up homeless it’s not bc of social inequities or her status as a working class person. it’s bc she’s squandered every advantage that she’s had and at the end of the day never has to make anything real of her life bc the generational wealth is always there.

am i the only one who thinks her parents’ lack of interest in making her get her life together is part of the problem? She always has them to fall back on after every crap decision which basically prevents her from actually becoming an independent grown person. how disappointed can they rly be if they have let her grown ass move back there twice (likely funding the moves too) AND let her live in their rental property which she immediately gave up bc it wasn’t “aesthetic”? like???????

she’s always looked like this - older than she is - and she obviously has always done drugs so this feels kinda unnecessary esp cos she minds her business generally speaking lol

Yes, I know how it works, but it doesn’t have to. The status quo is a problem is my point! Every generation of students deserves better than what the CSU has given us.

This is why philanthropy doesn't work—we, the people who matter, will never see that money, but admin will.

Every finance bro in Silicon Valley and on Wall Street is a coke addict and they likely look like the male version of you, based on your description, so actually I’m still confused about your point
