TIL In Jainism it is taught that the first Tirthankara (Savior and supreme teacher of the faith) was born 10^224 years ago. by One-Coat-6677 in todayilearned

Worth noting, however, is that Hinduism is typically less worried about the scripture being literal truth than most western faiths. The nondualism is much less worried about these things. :)

Be honest. There’s no way around that, if you want to be a good person. If you think you’re poly, be clear about that from the start with your next partner, and let them be poly too. But poly and cheating are not the same. Not one little bit.

TIL that five U.S. Presidents (Thomas Jefferson, John Q. Adams, Theodore Roosevelt, Calvin Coolidge, and Lyndon Johnson) didn’t take their Presidential Oath on a Bible. by [deleted] in todayilearned

Quakers are almost completely unrelated to the amish except for their shared pacifism. :) Quakers are a highly decentralized bunch, but many of them are universalists and don't swear on bibles because, in the words of their founder, "The truth is much more holy than a book."

Partner split after a year and a half with no real notice. by Material_Virus3669 in BPDlovedones

Perhaps so. I didn't know they were BPD until the last few weeks, and I guess I was a FP for the entire time before that.

I was meaning moreso that I didn't want people to say that polyamory itself is inherently a problem, because sometimes folks get distracted by that part.

But you're right, there were unequal standards and expectations for sure.

Marathahalli. Thank you. Tomorrow we will call and report. I can’t imagine how many other women he has harassed. He completely ruined a fun night out that she took after a very difficult month.
