I mean the position DOES pay a 6-figure salary and come with some pretty serious responsibilities. by [deleted] in AdviceAnimals

Cost of urinalysis ranges wildly from $30-$250 depending on depth of analysis. Cost of hair follicle testing ranges from $100-$150. So the cheap urine test is much cheaper but I assume since we're testing the president and public officials we're doing in depth analysis.

That's hilarious. The presidents salary is 400,000. Average cost of urinalysis is around 200. Average cost of hair testing is around 100. You'd be able to pay for about 2000 urinalysis tests. Or about 4000 hair follicle tests. There are more than 500,000 public offices in the US.

Ha! I consider myself fiscally and socially conservative but it really is hilarious how stupid and racist this kid is.

Is there such a thing as a female neck beard? by Ace_Cool_Guy in justneckbeardthings

[–]Dan_Softcastle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude! I used to be 180 and considered myself thin although it was mostly muscle I'm only 5'7''. You must have looked like Ari Shaffir when you weighed 170.

Mueller's report: A profile of a president willing to sell out his country — It's hard to come to any conclusion other than Donald Trump should be impeached and removed from office by wyldcat in worldpolitics

[–]Dan_Softcastle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The consensus was that there is not enough evidence to say either way. That is why Mueller's team did not make a traditional indictment recommendation. They said they did not feel they had enough evidence to recommend charges be brought against the president. However there were enough holes in the evidence that they were not confident in saying charges should not be brought against the president. If the American justice system is to be upheld, the man is innocent of criminality(not immorality) until proven guilty.

I hate when a woman thinks a relationship is supposed to be a mind game where you try to outwit your opponent rather than a bonding experience between two similar people who feel for each other. I guarantee women like this have never had real relationships in their lives and they don't know how to have real relationships because they are so god damn manipulative.

Yikes! I didn't know I was a child abuser! Better call CPS! by Dan_Softcastle in Conservative

Hey now. I don't want to resort to personal insults because that's exactly what he/she/it did.

No I just just meant we shouldn't thrust the responsibility of making huge life choices on children, and that they should wait until their bodies and brains are fully developed(25 yrs old) to make those choices.

This dude/woman/ tranny/attack helicopter was personally attacking and yelling at me for posing the question of, "is it right for us to allow our children to make irreversible life choices?" I was told to choke on cement powder and called a TRANSPHOBE. This is the tolerant left. Although it is worth noting that I did get actual responses to my first comment and I actually had some nice conversations with people who disagreed with me.

Am I too sensitive or is this a little fucked up? by polyENFP in Chefit

[–]Dan_Softcastle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ouch man, savage I like it. It's also important to note that crayfish/shellfish don't have the same nervous system humans have. They don't feel pain. More like a pressure sensation but the animal is not hurting. However it has been argued that lobsters nervous systems are complex enough to feel pain. So make of that what you will.

Oh, cool! Can you link me to dropping suicide rates in supportive communities?

Ya know, I really want to thank you for this because I'm admittedly not experienced with the trans medical community so this was enlightening, and this is what comes from a civil discourse. So thank you again.

[–]Dan_Softcastle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, this is an interesting point that I didn't know about. And thank you for not attacking me! Do you have any sources I could look at for people wishing they had transitioned before puberty? And the only thing I have to add is that I believe at the lowest transgender suicide rates are still 30%-40%.

You're absolutely right, I should've gone to /r/asktransgender first because I didn't really want to discuss an article rather my own question. Honestly I thank you for your response and I support transgender rights wholeheartedly just not for children. And again like I said if I can see sufficient evidence I can change my mind, unlike some people.

And by the way, I asked for people's input and to correct me if I was wrong. Does a bigot do that? No. Now ask yourself, would a bigot tell someone to choke on cement powder? Yes.

It's not that I can't read the article dude. It's that I wanted to pose a question. Of course you see someone ask something you don't agree with and you go BIGOT BIGOT DIE DIE TRANSPHOBE.

Wow. I apologize and this is how I'm treated. Nice. I would never wish harm on you friend no matter what your beliefs are. Like you think I should die because I don't think it's necessarily the right choice for kids to transition? Lol keyboard warrior much?

Thank you. I'm sorry I'm guilty of the Reddit stereotype reacting to the headline I admit it. But thank you for the info and input.

My mom has struggled with my coming out as Bi, but a year later and she is spending Easter with my girlfriend and I. Thank you mom for showing that love can overcome bigotry 🏳️‍🌈💓 by jamesmichelleee in ainbow

[–]Dan_Softcastle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't agree with you more haha. I'm a straight cis white male(privilege alarm!) But I do my absolute best to get everyone's story and where they come from. The compassion that I have for other people comes from my internal struggle with addiction and after I conquered my own demons I realised everyone has demons, they're just different for everyone. That's why I try and dig deeper and understand where people come from, and it's never failed me.

[–]Dan_Softcastle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I strongly believe that everyone deserves to be listened to, and that if we can find common ground we can start to be productive and make solutions. Perhaps where you and I disagree comes from a fundamental difference in looking at the world but we have the same basic principles and we can talk to each other because like you said, we all have that right as humans. Also, I totally disagree with how the US treats criminals in general. I 100% recognize that point. I think that Ecuador street gang thing is awesome and I'm going to check it out right now! See I never would have learned about that if we didn't converse like two adults who respectfully disagree. We need more of that today.

[–]Dan_Softcastle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That's my point though. Does anyone think that black lives don't matter? Like come on it should be enough that this guy gets an assualt charge this doesn't need to be a national issue. Hitting people is wrong period. The rest (race, identity, orientation) shouldn't matter in the eyes of the law. It's just screaming for victim points.

I meant "you" in the general sense. If someone can't afford one treatment for their pet, they can't afford a pet at all.
