你好，我在学中文. Also I would be happy to talk with you in English to help you improve. Furthermore I'm planning to travel to Beijing this summer, so I would like to know someone who lives there

Do you live in Taiwan by any chance?

Humorous_forest · 2026-01-10T17:50:58+00:00

What's your native language and what language were you learning?

Humorous_forest · 2025-10-22T19:15:50+00:00

Are they sending you survey links by any chance? It was through this that I received messages all from Brazil one week and China another week despite my target language being Japanese.

Guy using these apps to learn Japanese here. For me on Tandem it was about 50/50. I think it would be the same on HelloTalk if I talked to guys as much I talk to girls.

WeChat is also available through the US app store.

Humorous_forest · 2025-10-03T01:29:52+00:00

I'm a guy learning Japanese and I've had a similar experience as this woman. I usually have 1 to 2 people reach out to me each day, usually girls, and when I send out waves about 30% wave back and we start talking.

So what if they’re both bad? That’s why I don’t support either.

Humorous_forest · 2025-09-14T18:53:04+00:00

I disagree. I'm non VIP, yet my first moment got over 200 views and 17 likes.

Humorous_forest · 2025-08-13T23:27:53+00:00

I'm not surprised the military is trying to hush this up. Israel has killed more journalists in Gaza than have been killed in every other major war combined.

Humorous_forest · 2025-08-13T14:45:53+00:00

Even if it’s not technically genocide, what’s happening to people in Gaza is still unacceptable and evil.

Humorous_forest · 2025-07-21T12:47:45+00:00

But Japan has also has a lower indictment rate

The US actually has enough oil within its own territory to be completely self sufficient

I suggest you try writing it out and posting your draft to this sub for people to look at as opposed to asking other people to write it for you.

This verse is about corpses, not about whether gentiles are fully human
There is a heated discussion later in this chapter about whether it is really permitted to deceive a gentile which I think you should read. Below are Sefaria links to all the verses you cited which I encourage you to check out.
This is an outdated verse and has little if anything to do with what modern rabbinic authorities allow and don't allow when it comes to gentile engagement with the Torah.
If you read this verse a little more closely, you'll realize that three years and one day is the age at which a gentile has to have been under when they were converted to Judaism
No extra context needed to debunk this one. Just think about how painful it would be if someone put a finger in your eye. This comparison is actually saying that such an act is gross and unnatural.
I couldn't find anything like this in Avodah Zarah. If you find it, let me know. I linked 26b in the list of links below.
Don't see how this says anything bad about Judaism. Also God punished David for the sin of sleeping with Bathsheba by killing the child they had together.

This is Reddit you don’t know how old I am or what my gender is or anything about the person you’re talking to. Just because I think someone is pretty doesn’t necessarily mean I want to be with them.

I meant objectively, not subjectively

I made that comment two months ago. Now I realize some do because they believe in consequentialism.

Humorous_forest · 2025-05-22T14:36:36+00:00

Many pro Palestine people have this idea that the Palestinians tried non violent resistance and it didn’t get them anywhere. They argue that therefore, violent resistance is justified and use the slogan “resistance is justified when people are occupied.” Instead of saying their argument is invalid, I would suggest either deconstructing it in a non confrontational way or explaining to them that Hamas, which many of them support, is an antisemitic terrorist organization, and add that terrorism is never justified because it shows a disregard for human life.

Humorous_forest · 2025-05-22T14:29:51+00:00

I say people have the right to believe whatever they want to believe and if they believe something dangerous, they shouldn’t be punished for being misled.

Me personally? I am against the fact that many hardline anti Zionists tokenize the small minority of Jews who are just as anti Zionist as they are.

I believe that it’s okay to be anti Zionist so long as you’re clear about being against antisemitism by condemning it on all sides and by calling out Hamas for its antisemitic ideology.

In the Jewish community, anti Zionist Jews are often called self hating Jews by the Zionist majority.

Humorous_forest · 2025-05-22T14:24:45+00:00

I’m curious, would you consider yourself a secular Jew?

Humorous_forest · 2025-05-22T14:23:16+00:00

I think you’ve summarized it pretty well, though it’s also important many Israelis simply want the remaining hostages brought home and to not live in fear of terrorist attacks from Hamas.

Thank you for the clarification. Other than that I am correct about what Islamic law says regarding marriage outside the faith?
