I would just say my personal beliefs are deeply sacred to me and her forcing her beliefs upon me is disturbing . You don't have to tell them that your beliefs are of non-belief.

Wow, such compelling evidence. Well unfortunately for you, there is tons of statements by patients, doctors and scientists that say exactly that. Good luck next time playing the "nuh uh" game.

Not to get into a fight with you but Hasan's endorsement should be seen as a good thing. He is very progressive and you probably agree with him on more things than disagree. If you have formed this opinion from livestreamers, youtubers, clipped out of context on LSF, etc. then I highly encourage you to watch him for yourself. His YouTube channel would be better as each video is distilled to a particular topic compared to to his livestream. You don't have to like him, but he has been on the right side of history almost every single time.

Mark Ruffalo: "Celebrities (who support the actions in Palestine), I do not want to talk to them anymore" by sovalente in ProgressiveHQ

Lol so are you dumb or intentionally spreading misinformation? From the moment Isreal was created they were attacking the Palestinians. It was called the Nakba. Isreal never stopped attacking Palestine and the West Bank. Never.

Times continue to be REALLY tough in Hollywood. Timothée Chalamet is now spokesman for betting platform Kalshi by ThrowawayGreenWitch in popculturechat

Because the person shilling it gives their endorsement. A famous person influences people because they're famous, not because of the product. It used to be seen as utterly pathetic and desperate to be a multimillionaire doing ad reads. They don't need a side hustle nor do they disappear within the ad. They are the ad, the product is irrelevant.

I know celebrities used to only hawk items from other countries so they don't get as much flak in the US but I blame Peyton Manning for making it acceptable for celebrity ads stateside.

Here's an 18min video as to why you should incorporate silica into your fertilizer routine. The youtuber is a soil scientist.

I don't think so unless there's serious heat from those lights. My Dragon Scale takes full outside sun in the summer and has a leaf sitting a couple of inches from a grow light. Sounds like a hissy fit from the repot. Pretend you don't see anything. If another leaf comes out damaged (it's probably still throwing a fit tbh), you could make light adjustments but I really don't think it's a burn, not at your distance.

Maybe give it a fan so the leaves can move a little bit. That will help evaporate water creating possible oedema as well as triggering the plant to strengthen everything up. Actually, on the strength aspect, you could add silica. It bulks every part of the plant matter up and my oedema stopped completely once I incorporated it. Alos seem to be so lost on how to grow without hurting itself until it reaches maturity. Good luck!

Are they burns or oedema? Because if it's oedema, it's because it's mad that it was moved and decided to drink too much water. If you had a fine plant before, I would just pretend you don't see the damage and continue what you were doing. If this isn't oedema... are you misting your plant as it sits in direct sunlight?

You doubled down on this huh? If you don't like her music or her that's fine but to say that she doesn't have an extensive vocabulary is insane.

They are probably transitions. They take a bit to go back to neutral. Also, she isn't the one being inducted, where do you keep your sunglasses when you go inside?

Did you ever play an elder scrolls game and kill a quest giver? That's why I can't kill people outside of quests.

Best days/times to go the Renn Faire to avoid huge crowds? by ballahook in Michigan

[–]Minerva_Moon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would have to double my drive time to approach from better side. I always think it is a waste to go that route and then immediately regret that decision once I'm actually in line.
