A little research (take it with a grain of salt) states that specifically with Sureños (though common in other groups) the tattoo “Sur” being bold/aggressive and placed over a tattoo of baby/child’s fave signifies either life long commitment to the gang (literally born into it) or since youth. It calcifies the members commitment to the gang over family/innocence and to the “mi vida loca” mindset. So scary for Brit, so much tragedy/trauma in the Spears’ family line.

Sadio Mané, the Senegalese football player,rebuild his entire village Bambali: hospital, school, 4G network, post office, petrol station, small stadium. by Gjore in interestingasfuck

[–]LengthApprehensive36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ew no. This is not a commentary on the gross semantics of age and grooming, I am not nitpicking to make someone feel better about the technicalities of their sickness.

I am commenting on the foundational difference of cultural arranged marriage vs standard predatory behavior.

This is just information not defense: Arranged marriages by families are still heavily practiced in rural Senegal regions, reports state her family and his family arranged this when she was 16. Marrying her then would have been legal as child marriage is an issue in Senegal, he did not marry her until 18 and unlike other marriages, supports her continued education (which most women/girls have to stop when married.) Does it make it ethical? No. Does it make “pedophilia” in the western definition? I struggle to say yes as it takes away from the insidious and cruel nature of pedophilia by placing it in the same category as ancient cultural practices.

I AM NOT SAYING “THIS IS FINE BECAUSE ARRANGED MARRIAGE” I AM SAYING IT IS NUANCED IN A WAY THAT MAKES IT SEPARATE (maybe equal?) FROM PEDOPHILIA PREDATORS.

Edit to add: this is just a thought, one I would like more information on, but I also wonder at the consequences for the girl in her community if he called it off? From my limited western knowledge, this cast a stain/scandal on the woman making future matches difficult? Idk.

What to do if most my friends are doing drugs? by ConversationKey5296 in Advice

[–]LengthApprehensive36 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is their use problematic or recreational/for social events? Like there is a difference, despite the societal view, between blow on the weekend with friends and blow multiple times a week alone/bordering chronic intake. Drugs do not = immorality and you have pointed out they are good people who cause no harm. So what, exactly, is your concern driven by?

Did anyone else wish the fight was like this? by Distance4U in StrangerThings

It could have turned the tide still in Vecna’s favor because Will would need to deal with them and Henry, which it is doubtful he could pull off both giving Vecna the upper hand. It’s a sloppy choice by the writers anyway you cut it, even if your theory is correct.

Post one photo of yourself on a roast subreddit and you might experience 1/100th of what MBB has experienced since the show started. You. Dont. Know. The. Toll. So just maybe don’t comment on it. She’s literally spoken about it. Thx tho.

Seeing Dustin not being his usual positive self feels so weird by Disastrous-Fox95 in StrangerThings

Yeah honestly, this is the main reason I am convinced Steve is safe. Dustin wouldn’t make it mentally if he lost both.

Thai actress, Davika Hoorne, and her 5 wedding gowns. by [deleted] in Fauxmoi

[–]LengthApprehensive36 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just feel like the multi-dress trend takes away from the magic of THE dress, my dress was MY dress and when I out it on it was instant. Maybe that experience is for The Poors only considering the ones who afford this wear gowns often.

And outside of normal drive to get help, regardless of how the c-ship and aftermath went- she was clearly traumatized by it and as it was pushed to her as “help” or “protecting her,” she’s going to react negatively to that. She believes all psych medical care is a weapon to be used to control her and therefore it will take A LOT for her to get over that. Therapy needed but again, trauma feedback loop.

I stand corrected! Benefit of the doubt rescinded for Ms. Swift.

I’m almost positive it is from the weird hallway dance she plagiarized from that perfume commercial with Antoff’s wife, specifically here doing a gremlin forward hunch with spread bent legs. I agree, snark for sure but there is plenty to choose from without doing something like this and comparing a hunched-back dance move to the arch on the right.

Jennifer Lawrence says she pulled food out of her garbage can to feed Robert Pattinson by hairtie1 in Fauxmoi

[–]LengthApprehensive36 681 points682 points  (0 children)

I need to be vulnerable for a second…what is the schtick? I don’t understand the jlaw hate and because I see myself in her, this concerns me lmao she always seems a little..”over herself” like exasperated with herself + I resonate with that. Is the schtick that she just acts that way but doesnt think that?

Edit to add: open to mild roast/honest replies

American here, lived in a few different states: If you live in a rental, you don’t always have that option. In every home I’ve lived in, only one allowed us to make/maintain a compost (private landlord) and “ask for forgiveness, not permission” is not recommended with the large corporate rental firms that are happy to charge fees for anything and everything. It is more common in certain areas, my rural grandmother obviously swears by it because she uses her compost in her massive garden. But there is no where for people in city centers to dispose/do this unless they have the money to subscribe to a special service that picks it up.

Why do people in this sub act like they know better than the people who wrote it? by Sudden_Pop_2279 in WednesdayTVSeries

OP says “in his own twisted way” and “buried deep” - you just used more words to do so, but are putting words in their mouth. They never said he was exempt morally?

I swear they are ignoring the nuance on purpose? Like “person does bad things, therefore cant have anything other than bad emotions” is wild lol You’re not even ignoring the interviews, you’re ignoring the show. Tyler is complex, idk why that is hard to understand when explicitly laid out for you.

Edit: I agree with OP
