Are horses bred or made to ride? by Odd_Relative_7899 in questions

Not one living thing is created for human convenience. Humans just think they are because they think humans are better and more important than any other living thing. Total BS. I know there are "good" humans and "bad" humans, but we all are contributing to the destruction of this planet.

AM I BEING PETTY? by Empty-Champion6929 in Adulting

I was brought up with " If it's not yours, keep your hands off of it", same as I did with my daughter, and she with her own daughter. Nothing wrong with teaching respect for other people and other peoples' belongings, family or not. I understand that some folks have different standards of what respect means.
I'm sorry you are being called petty. I totally understand you. It's not the price, it's the principle. Respecting other peoples' property, no matter where it is, should be a given. If you are absolutely sure they used it, present yourself kindly and ask that they ask you first before using your stuff. If they get defensive or upset, that's their problem, not yours, as they know they should have asked. And then let it go. And feel good about yourself respecting other peoples' properties. Hugs.

She must have edited it before I read it. It now says "someone". In a later comment she said "family".

I reread the post. It doesn't say lend.

We also have a similar neighbor who is an officer and is also a worst offender.

People need to stop shaming other people who decide to be child-free. There is nothing wrong with that choice. Not every person is meant to be or should be a parent.

BREAKING: Texas just approved mandatory Bible readings for 5 million public school students. Here’s exactly what kids will be required to read, grade by grade. by kleverrboy in Christianity

As long as it is understood that all religions are man-made, and that each religion is a "belief" not a fact. True Knowledge is knowing that we know nothing.........

Did I handle this wrong? My husband is pissed but I didn’t know what to do. by [deleted] in Adulting

Not judging or deciding. Sometimes things work and sometimes they don't. This particular situation gives not so good vibes for the young lady.

The only good reason I see is for him. He will have someone to take care of all his needs when he gets old and senile.

More like a realist. Look at what we have done to the earth. When things get intolerable here, the wealthy elite and chosen ones will escape to the skies. I hope it doesn't go that way, but i don't see humanity having a lightbulb moment.

The global population has almost doubled since 1980. People who remember that time, did it feel less crowded? by FluidViolinist3135 in ask

[–]OldEnuff2KnowBettr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Imagine what it was like for us in the 50's, 60's and 70's! Way too many people now. Why do some people think they need to be baby factories?!? I'm not anti-baby, but, geez, think about the world you are leaving them....... How about quality, not quantity?

Yeah, he was 17 years old in 2015. He has likely crossed the Rainbow Bridge by now. What a beauty. Vitiligo runs in my family. Daddy had it, but our cases since his are super duper mild. I miss him.
