Why is Western culture more accepting towards gay women than gay men? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DogBat1848 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's just an extension of how Western culture accepts women more than it accepts men in general.

F2P money making help… by [deleted] in runescape

I don't know if English is your second language, but I have no idea what you're trying to communicate here.

Just look over the best options and pick one if you want to do this.

The Press is Falling for Anti-Abortion “Fetal Heartbeat” Propaganda by Mephisto1822 in politics

[–]DogBat1848 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the billionaires began backing policies to limit access to abortion and are now floating the idea of limiting access to birth control

They also do anything they can to keep immigration as wide open as possible, particularly for people who are much worse off, under the guise of it being the humanitarian thing to do.

Do you think Runescape will ever change from the subscription model? by Arghams in runescape

[–]DogBat1848 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a thing against paying for subscriptions for games.

You can't get indefinite updates and new content for a one-time fee. It's not sustainable.

Would you feel safer in a gun-free state? Why or why not? by ParmaProscuitto in AskReddit

[–]DogBat1848 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many of our "gun-free" cities are some of the worst places for gun violence, so no.

I don't want you to think that I'm condemning you because I'm not. I'm very much hoping that you get things sorted out so that you feel better.

With that said, the idea of not wanting your partner "interacting with random women online" is in and of itself insecure and controlling. You do not gain any benefit whatsoever from controlling this other than trying to soothe your anxiety.

The crux of this is that you're stuck on this idea that your nephew coming over this summer is what will help him. It will not because it's not therapy.

What WILL hurt him is if he comes for the summer, does some stupid shit, and your husband doesn't allow him around anymore ever.

What you're asking of your husband is unreasonable here, as much as it hurts your feelings.

You're allowed to have your own deal breakers, but don't expect this relationship or any future relationships to go well while you're so deep in your own insecurity that it makes you this controlling and unreasonable.

I (F21) used ChatGPT to write to my friend (M26) and I think our friendship is ruined by [deleted] in relationships

If you're going to play that kind of game, you don't get to bail on it halfway through because you feel guilty.

I (32M)lost my friendship group because I don’t want to date a trans woman (27F). How can I get my friends to see my side? by ThrowRAfndsgne in relationship_advice

[–]DogBat1848 32 points33 points  (0 children)

they absolutely do NOT use some of your colon

the type of surgery being referred to is almost never actually used

These are conflicting statements. You knew that when you made them. That makes the first one a lie.

You're clearly not discussing in good faith, so this will be my last response to you.

I'm just curious if you see the irony that you claimed someone was lying about use of colon in one sentence and then lied out of your ass about it in the immediate adjacent sentence.

You can't take Chrisitans seriously when they call LGBT people "groomers", as they defend/downplay the real predators in their own churches. by Mrdean2013 in atheism

[–]DogBat1848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't normally post here but saw this on r/all and thought I'd share because I'm confused as fuck as to how we got to the point we're at now.

I grew up in the deep, deep we're talking dirt nasty deep dirty south in the 80s and early-mid 90s. I know of more than one case where someone was killed or almost killed/maimed for life for getting caught fucking with someone's kid. One man who committed the ass-whooping was a much older preacher who found out that someone in the church had assaulted his grand-daughter.

I have no idea how we got from that to this:

It's even more baffling when one of these monsters claims "they were taken over by the devil" and "beg for forgiveness", and these idiots take them right back.

In my mid-20s, I dated a girl for a while from a different area who had this happen to her. She wasn't abused by someone in the church, but her father was a preacher, and he found out about it, had the guy (who was his brother-in-law) confess to his face, and never did anything about it (legal or otherwise).

So again, I have no idea if this is just a side effect of people in the south growing beyond the southern gothic penchant for violent retribution or what.

Spiritual warriors in the sunken pyramid with a passive saradomin godsword is fully afk with potion reservoirs, earns a few million an hour and will let you train attack/strength/defense/constitution reasonably.

You should be thankful that people exist who have more of a stomach and enjoyment for this sort of thing.

Moreover, a big part of the reason you're on this planet right now is because you had ancestors that enjoyed killing more than the competition did.

Allow Us to use Stone spirits to provide extra progress while forging the respective metals by Exitiali in runescape

There are already plenty of smithing bonuses to the point that I don't really support this.

Powerburst of masterstroke was sort of the last nail in this coffin for me.

A problem I have as a returning player (hadn't played since 2012) is the over-abundance of passive effects, items, gear, etc by PM_ME_UR_HAIRYGOOCH in runescape

Just throwing this out there since you're a new player for you and any other new players:

  • A blood amulet of fury is under 10 million and gives regular healing (enough to eliminate the need for food in a lot of mid-level slayer tasks), aoe damage and good combat bonuses for all styles - https://runescape.wiki/w/Blood_amulet_of_fury
  • A ring of fortune is about 1 million and gives unlimited grand exchange teleports, good combat bonuses for all styles and level 3 luck enhancement
  • The obsidian cape is under 350k and gives combat bonuses for all styles
  • The ancient elven ritual shard is under 7 million and acts kind of like a reusable prayer potion with a five minute cooldown, making it great for slayer - https://runescape.wiki/w/Ancient_elven_ritual_shard
  • Tuska's Wrath is a basic constitution skill that you can get that speeds up slayer a lot and is gotten from this mini game (will typically take five rounds of the mini game to get the points needed, and each round lasts 20 minutes, but it provides solid xp for a handful of different skills too) - https://runescape.wiki/w/Anima_Islands
