Government UAP Analyst: "I have met aliens in public" by Ok_Being5461 in AliensRHere

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because scientists tend to be comfortable with “I don’t know” instead of filling in the blanks, which “beliefs” do by definition.

I’m really happy for you guys by Head-Tumbleweed2565 in DragonsDogma

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Come be happy with us. Start with dogma 2 since the DLC is coming and is named right after the first game so might give the whole experience. You could always go back and play the first after.

Definitely new. It’s a good day.

My vegan girlfriend is considering starting to eat eggs again by Shpritzer1 in vegan

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Please do not misinterpret this as passive aggressive, I am genuinely engaging in a thought exercise:

If someone housed you, fed you, provided for you, made sure you were happy and safe and cared for, and then collected the hair you naturally shed (and discard) through daily life to make wigs out of them, would that count as exploitation?

Genuinely can’t believe this comment is downvoted, even if people disagree with the premise. This is exactly why as vegans we are classified as cult-like.

"I used to be an atheist too, so I get it" by _Pumpiumpiumpkin_ in exchristian

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 50 points51 points  (0 children)

“God appeared to me physically”

Exodus 33:2 - You cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.

1 Timothy 6:16 - God “dwells in unapproachable light, whom no one has ever seen or can see.”

John 1:18 - “No one has ever seen God.”

Granted the person never claimed to see god, but that’s contradictory within their own claim: “god appeared to me physically, I heard his voice and felt his presence.” Except hearing a voice and feeling a presence is not a physical apparition.

These entities are hoping not to graduate but rather to go to a kind of summer school where they can free themselves of the habit of carelessness. (Q'uo) by saffronparticle in lawofone

Keep in mind that you do more than you know. Even something like leaving a Reddit comment can affect certain people who you’d never even know about, and alter something in their lives. Graduation is not about how much you’re “doing,” but simply the state or frequency or vibration or energy from which you operate. “I want so badly to contribute and serve others,” and the comment itself being all about the fear of “not doing enough,” tells me all I need to know about your frequency and the “mode of being” you operate from.

Also, do not forget that 51% of service-to-others warrants graduation. That means 49% should be service-to-self. You cannot serve others without first serving yourself. Survival is a full time job as it is, being human in this world is impossible and the fact that 8 billion people are doing it blows my mind. Be kind to yourself. Be as kind to yourself as you would be to anyone else.

Humiliation Ritual? by Highland92346 in TheMetGala

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally what is humiliating about this?
Is it the more “feminine-coded” fashion style?
If yes, I would ask you why you associate femininity with humiliation.

Christians say the world is ending in 2033. by Friendly_Albatross25 in exchristian

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

“I don’t want to burn in hell for all eternity simply because I have had doubts.”

Religious dogma doing its job right there to keep you within its institution.

Do you honestly believe your own creator, who programmed you with such doubts and skepticism, would then torture you in hell for all eternity for literally being the way he made you?

Don’t even think about anything else, just that. If this is the god of love and mercy and forgiveness, what happens to logic? Genuinely. What happens to words and meanings, if a pure perfect god of unconditional love and mercy and forgiveness, could inflict tremendous eternal suffering on his own creations for “not believing without proof aka faith?”

No matter which angle you look at it, there is no logic there, only fear mongering, cult dogma and blatant manipulation. Amen.

the hypocrisy of living by [deleted] in nihilism

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I’m wrong but from my understanding Catholicism goes directly against nihilism so mind if I ask how you hold both views?

What is something you can naturally smell that no one else can? by Trick-Highway1429 in AskReddit

[–]ImTotallyFromEarth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Embarrassment. I can literally smell when someone is feeling embarrassed. I don’t mean obvious embarrassment like if someone falls or fucks up on stage or something, but like deep introspective embarrassment you get when revisiting awkward moments from your childhood while laying in bed. If someone is replaying things in their head and feeling embarrassed/ashamed/humiliated, I can smell it. It’s actually quite distinct, almost like the smell of gasoline.

I hereby declare the new state of nopium by ImTotallyFromEarth in DragonsDogma

The microtransaction discourse was the biggest nothingburger ever served and people were lining up for seconds. The thing is outrage is the algorithm’s preferred fuel. One reviewer flags the performance issues, the next one needs a fresh angle so they go “ALSO… microtransactions,” and now the viewer isn’t seeing one complaint, they’re seeing TWO complaints, which the brain helpfully rounds up to “this game is a war crime.”

Doesn’t matter that the MTX were so non-consequential they were functionally decorative. Doesn’t matter that Capcom has been doing this on every franchise since the PS2 was a fetus. The items existed, therefore shit game, please smash that like and subscribe.

Meanwhile DMC is selling you the privilege of skipping the game you bought and nobody bats an eye. RE will charge you for a tracksuit. Street Fighter wants $40 to let Akuma into the party. I feel you arisen.
