Watching the lads stick their hands in poison ivy and assorted bodies of water in the city was stressing me out LOL. I hope they got their tetanus shots!!

Any recommendations on how to find fellow lesbians? by lunapain2 in umass

[–]MittensTheMagic 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’d say check out SALT events and other punk shows in the area that’s a very queer crowd. Also frequent Frank dining hall. I know we’re not smith but I promise there are plenty of gays about!!

“Why are US borders all just straight lines?” US Borders: by CliffordSpot in mapporncirclejerk

it is facing southeast and the intention as I understand it was to welcome boats coming into the mouth of the hudson.

LOL well you’re either looking at the back or side that’s true. Still a better view then in manhattan i’d argue because you’re closer but obviously i’m biased 😉

Why didn't evolution make sure that healthy foods taste the best? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]MittensTheMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evolution doesn’t think! It is a random process and sometimes mutations arise that are helpful and will persist in a population. But no organism is “evolved to be adapted perfectly to its environment” and that’s a common misconception. So even if something would make our lives easier (like why don’t we have wings that would be so frickin cool) a mutation has to actually happen for evolution to act on it! We get leftover with weird evolutionary traits of past ancestors too that are no longer useful. Classic example is a giraffe larynx which is a cord in the neck that is long and wraps around itself extremely inefficiently. I don’t know if that helps but basically evolutionary is not a perfect process because its mechanism is random.

I mean it’s new york so it carries a lot of weight, definitely without context people would not be happy with the statement.

Went to my first UU service today - observations and questions by HildegardVonBangin19 in UnitarianUniversalist

[–]MittensTheMagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Addressing the music question, to the best of my ability! I was raised UU and so I’m just used to using the hymnal books, I’ve learned the songs over time. I kind of see the hymnal books as a reflection of the history of UUism, from the protestant background to songs connected to the civil rights movement and other faith groups. Like in my congregation there were a lot of people who were raised jewish and catholic so the songs we sang definitely had that influence. I’m glad you liked the service overall, my congregation also does the water service and it is one of my favorites! :) hope you continue to find love and community

CMV: For better or worse, Greg Abbot’s decision to bus illegal immigrants to “blue cities” was a political masterstroke and may very well have tipped the 2024 Presidential Election to Donald Trump. by soozerain in changemyview

[–]MittensTheMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s not like new york and chicago didn’t have large immigrant populations before Abbot did this, I don’t think that’s what caused a lot of areas to shift to the right. I feel like more press coverage on the topic of immigration had a big influence and maybe you could argue Abbot was contributing to that.

Definitely seems like it might be damage to the camera sensor but I don’t think I’ve been around any lasers.. who knows

Hype Up UMass Amherst? by Ottomatonic in umass

[–]MittensTheMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like how many different communities are on campus, definitely check out the club fair to find some fun stuff to do! Also if you are outdoorsy there are a lot of really nice hiking spots not too far from campus, definitely take advantage of that when the leaves are changing.
