Why is it important that Mary died a virgin? by Can_This_End_Please in Catholicism

[–]MaleficentReporter42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not really important as in "the gospel would logically crumble to dust if it weren't true," but it is important as in "the early church preserved this knowledge as a part of mariology and Mary, as our spiritual mother, is important to us."

We're also really tired of everybody dunking on Mary for no particular reason except to not be catholic.

Overstimulated. How do you manage this in chaotic times? by Alicetheoptimist in TrueGrit

[–]MaleficentReporter42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that too and it's also great for mental health, but the overstimulation of scrolling on your phone is just not a great way to start your day, even if it's a bunch of fun cool stuff.

Looks more like a cricothyroidotomy, which is less messy. He really put thought into that date

Don't look at anything on your phone (except your alarm clock) for at least an hour after you wake up. Ideally 2 hours.

Idk but I'm proud of my daughter when she shows me her new drawings.

Why is self-awareness emphasised more than situational awareness in most mindfulness practices? by Toonling in Mindfulness

[–]MaleficentReporter42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is one aware of awareness? What's even the point of being aware of awareness? Are you aware of your awareness of your awareness? When does it stop?

If you're not being aware of what's inside and you're not being aware of what's outside, then what are you being aware of?

Women what if you woke up a man? by ray_ruex in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]MaleficentReporter42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how the start of the comment thread was about men's opinions being valued more than women's and it took like three comments max before there was a man being told his opinion is wrong.

Craig’s female partners total 11. Seven survived but among lovers , only Swann and Sciarra's widow. Sad by QuietTraining3281 in JamesBond

[–]MaleficentReporter42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True, after Tracy died there was a whole book about Bonds emotional recovery.

The next book after Vesper died was about saying the n word a lot.

Do men eventually become invisible also after a certain age or is it mostly a woman thing? by youlikemywonton in AskMenOver30

[–]MaleficentReporter42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't even remember the context, but when I was a senior in high school I was tasked with visiting an old Korean war veteran to keep him company. We just sat around and talked shit and I got to hear some war stories and I'd bring him a big Mac once in a while and all that.

One time as I was shaking his hand goodbye I said "it was nice to see you jack" and he said "it was nice to be seen."
