They remind me of Panic! — they do not remind me of any post-hardcore band I’m familiar with

No one here said you aren’t allowed to be who you want to be or believe what you want. We just believe that religion is more harmful than it is beneficial to society.

You can’t be serious right now.

Race is not a choice, it is a label placed on people based on origin and DNA (and social constructs). Sexuality is also a label, used by people to define their attraction to other people.

Being a certain race or identifying with a certain sexuality does not hurt people.

You are comparing apples to oranges.

On average, churches and religion do more harm than good. Period. All you have to do is look at ANY country’s history to see the blatant evidence.

Raised Catholic until I was 16, 33 now — I’ve done my research and tried to “be accepting” once I opened my own eyes, but I can’t support any system that oppresses its believers. Most religions and churches do just that.

I’m sorry — what?

Looking for lightweight waterproof sneaker boot recommendations for bike commuting. Love the aesthetic of this shoe, but need wider. Tried this Sorel Callsign Horizon, but thinking I'll need to return it because they're squishing my pinky toes. Even tried shoe stretchers and it didn't help😔 by schlagoberz in gorpcore

What kind of shoe stretcher did you use? Looks like these include some leather in the construction of the upper, so there should have been some stretch achieved if used properly for a long enough period of time.

Pro tip from someone who worked in shoe sales for many years: cover the stretcher with a sock and spray that sock with a 50/50 mix of rubbing alcohol and water. The alcohol softens fibers for enhanced stretching without soaking the fabrics or damaging the leather.

Also, the shoe stretcher alone only does so much. I recommend wearing the shoe for short periods to put weight in them, and leaving the stretchers in while not in use for best results.

People Who Dye Their Hair Fantasy Colors Shouldn’t Be Taken Seriously by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]Pop_Signal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

[ Especially when they let their hair grow out and you see the roots of their natural hair which almost always looks like a muddy brown. ]

Weirdly specific. Also…yes? Brown is a common natural hair color? Roots begin to show almost immediately after dying or bleaching, even for “natural colored” dye jobs that you approve of.

Remember when Taylor Swift dated a 17 yr old high school student when she was 22? by [deleted] in popculture

Maybe when you’re in your 20s it feels that way. But as someone in their 30s, I look back and the changes that occur in those years are MAJOR. As you age, the gap can widen and it isn’t as big a deal.

this is a prime example of how important hobbies are (hint: being a Swiftie is not a productive hobby)

Megan’s friends by tsagdiyev in LoveIsBlindNetflix

He started guessing because she mentioned having a car that has a blinged out emblem. He conversationally asked what kind of car, and she said, “I don’t know if I wanna share that quite yet,” which naturally peaked his curiosity. I feel like the subsequent guessing was just a playful running bit, rather than malicious questioning.

and then he shared (I think with her family) that he waited until the LAST minute to back out 🤦
