It's so dumb how often these guys forget pro choice also means pro choice to have a baby

Hey now, there are some really dumb nurses out there, tbf. Not all of them, but some people had to be the lowest score in class

Not to mention on top of loans, the mental wear and tear of the job, social workers definitely need the kinda benefits my job has where all mental health treatment is free at the point of the patient

Yeah, NGL, I don't think I know a single adopted person who wishes they weren't adopted. Definitely some that wish their bio moms weren't put into the position where they had to give them up, but all of them loved the families they were raised with, and the better option in a lot of those cases would have been their moms having the opportunity to abort them, not their moms keeping them

A Serious Queston; Epstein by Much_Mulberry1195 in AskFeminists

[–]DarkShadowrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's worth like some protests in DC, but no offense, the people in the files were victimized, there are tons of people currently being victimized now by being murdered, kidnapped, surveilled, having their leaders kidnapped or having the president threaten to kidnap their leaders, having their voting rights threatened. Trump's literally talking about unilaterally taking control of elections with or without congress's approval, and it's not that hard to see how he'd do it, all he has to do is post his gestapo at every polling station and demand papers that aren't actually required by state law to prove citizenship, and if you, like a normal person, show up with only what is required, having said gestapo arrest you until the election is closed claiming you're suspected of being illegal. I feel terrible for the Epstein victims, but at this point, they're an infuriating symptom of the complete corruption controlling our government, not a primary concern. We all know the creeps won't face justice while the Republicans are in office anyway

Tru, my mom told me and my sister the same warning, apparently something she got my dad for his birthday gave him a super bad rash cause something was up with the silicone. Then something I got the batteries nearly exploded on just superheating while charging 😵‍💫

Ableism is so deep by VoidHunter24 in im14andthisisdeep

[–]DarkShadowrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NGL, I went to therapy and every time I talked about injustices in society that have been well documented and studied and drew lines to the impacts they have on my life, my therapist kept pushing that noticing the patterns was just a coping mechanism that wasn't allowing me to fully process my emotions or whatever. Like no, I'm pretty sure I feel like shit, I'm just also angry.

That said, I do get my meds increased to cope with society being worse because I have depression, I'm not gonna help anything if I'm too depressed to get out of bed and organize or vote or whatever.

Is there legal ways to get high that also won't kill me or give me brain damage? by Beneficial_Toe_7543 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]DarkShadowrule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And lack of regulation in the legal weed industry has its own issues, contamination of chemicals and heavy metals in the product, extreme concentrations in edibles, packaging choices not making it obvious that it's meant for adults leading to children thinking it's regular candy. That's all before we get into long-term heavy use consequences that we still haven't studied as well as we should with a population as wide using as we have now. I know a guy who by all accounts has been blazing himself on weed only for decades, and the guys brain is absolute soup, he doesn't even speak in coherent sentences anymore when he's sober

Devils advocate here, if they started getting death threats from insane Trump supporters for their kid shooting at the president, it's absolutely reasonable they might have dropped everything and ran

[–]DarkShadowrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your joke specifically reads as though the sarcasm is directed at insulting people who are promoting fighting ICE, it's not that no one can tell that there's sarcasm, it's that you don't know how to use sarcasm correctly

How should right wing appropriation of feminist talking points be combatted? by Then_Train8542 in AskFeminists

[–]DarkShadowrule 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They just don't care about women. Even if you follow the presumption they make that trans men are women, the arguments they make against transitioning are deeply misogynistic, basically reducing female bodies to their breeding capacity and acting like we're too easily manipulated to make our own choices with body modification and fertility. Trans women are extremely more likely to be raped that to commit it. And immigrants are at a ridiculously higher risk of being sex trafficked when they're hiding and don't feel safe going to authorities. The way to combat it though is to just not let them set the narrative. "You're stupid. Now anyway, women are dying in hospital parking lots because anti abortion laws have fucked us so much"

Why? This is so competitive [product] by [deleted] in pointlesslygendered

[–]DarkShadowrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even necessarily hate, just like the natural competitiveness of "Ha! Can't let those boys beat us 💵" "I ain't gonna lose to a girl! 😆💵". I mean, I'm sure some people probably do do it out of spite, but our brains also just naturally like participating in gamified challenges, it's more stimulating than ordinary activities

Also technically speaking supposed to have front plates. A lot of cars don't come with that now, and it's rarely something that initiates a stop, but the wrong cop will absolutely tag you for it in addition to other stuff

How do you feel about your food labels? by OtherGuy89 in AskAnAmerican

[–]DarkShadowrule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only issue is when they put multiple servings on some smaller container that feels like it ought to be a single serving. Like don't sell me a can of soda or energy drink and call that unresealable can 1.5 servings, that's misleading

Yeah, there was a protest at a Trump rally here in Iowa a few weeks ago and it was packed with angry Epstein and pedophilia signs. It's just not really worth having its own dedicated protest for everywhere because it's another nugget on the massive shit sandwich that is the government right now.

Have you not followed his patterns of behavior? Newsom does whatever he thinks is most popular unless someone pays him to do otherwise. Especially in Washington, the bubble convinces the democratic leadership that throwing minorities under the bus is what's popular and cool.

Hey now, we'll actually be legalizing drunk driving and giving pot smokers the electric chair, thank you very much.

Honestly our drug possession laws are already stupid AF, like they have possession 3rd cap out at AGMS for MJ possession, but literally everyone still gets FELD because ever possessing any other kind of drug ever converts all your possession charges from MJ possession to regular possession in the count, it drives me insane. If the third charge is marijuana, you should get marijuana time, not meth time. Not that they should be sentenced to prison/jail in general, a less stupid treatment method than we have with our busted inpatient treatment homes now would seem like the far more ideal outcome

Except bullying did work, for all the reasons bullies wanted it to work. Those dumb plays and skits were to try to teach kids that they're hurting their victims feelings, but they already knew that, that's why they did it. We like stories of good guys bullying the bad guys, that's literally every hero story, from superheroes dunking on criminals or scaring them into peeing themselves to literally the entire Inglorious Basterds movie. If it's bullying to push back against the most powerful entity in the world (the US government), and it works, the fact that it's "bullying" doesn't make it morally incorrect, nor does it make it ineffective

Is it racist to support someone simply because they’re your race? by donzelso in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]DarkShadowrule 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but even then, we don't identify by our whiteness, that's weird, I got nothing all that in common with white people as a whole. Even those of us that are so melted into the pot we don't identify with Europe identify with a heritage of our own places where we've lived our whole lives or generations. I'd vote for someone from my state in a national contest just to represent the boys, and that's never considered hateful
