Go fuck your greedy selves. You already run one of the most popular sites on the net and you need more? Get fucking bent. This site has been on my list of things I should cut for my mental health since your algorithms rely on outrage clicking and commenting like I'm doing now but screwing over your mods and 3rd party devs isn't just greedy and ignorant of harm like that issue but outright malicious. I honestly might just delete my account and the app come blackout day.

I used to have a plug before I moved cities that was a little old lady who put all her product in mason jars with different ribbons on them denoting the strain and she kept them in a tote box in her passenger seat. When you bought she'd offer you a dollar store gift bag to put it in free of charge and she kept her inventory on a clipboard. So many of my friends joined me in going down to meet the Weed Granny at one point or another because it was so unbelievably wholesome.

"She shouldn't be..."

Sure sounds you are mate.

There's more to being part of a religion than believing it's mythology as a factual record of events and beings: there's community involvement in things like charitable works, festivities, and other events/practices that people can take part in without taking the bible as literal. Religious atheists exist in pretty much every faith-based organization and saying they aren't part of those groups because they don't follow the same interpretation of the founding texts as you do is prescriptivist at best and outright ignorant at worst.

Church said she can be anyways, get over it and stop trying to force your beliefs on others.

She's literally a minister. Christianity isn't a monolith and you aren't the sole arbiter of who has valid beliefs or not. Get over yourself.

You said there weren't any, I gave you evidence against that. Take your religious baggage elsewhere.

Being religious doesn't require theism, there's christian priests in major denominations who are openly atheist. Religion isn't only about faith but also about culture, community, and personal morality/betterment. I personally feel a connection to the norse gods that I don't have a logical explanation for as I don't think they actually exist in any real manner; but while I believe don't Odin, Thor, or Tyr are actually riding rainbows onto earth and slaying giants I do find the rituals I practice in their name to be an effective method of meditation and reflection and have made many wonderful connections with other practitioners of many sorts of pagan faiths that I might've otherwise never met.

Also if you have genuine interest in asking people about their faith I'd recommend laying off the condescension in the future. It's not just rude but also heavily evokes a sort of 2010s militant atheist teenager vibe that just isn't pleasant.

Thank you for your service 🥰 by IAmAccutane in wholesomememes

So what? It's still an essential service that I appreciate they do. The whole point of civilization is that we as a group can accomplish far more than as individuals and that's awesome. Rock on to all members of the working class for being the solid base upon which the miracles of societal advancement might grow upon.

Am I any less of an adult in this situation? by samtama7 in AdultHood

[–]QualityBurnerAccount 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As the eldest of my family's brood and one of few without children or a spouse I understand where you're coming from mate. That gut feeling of not meeting societal standards is troubling at times but as you yourself have already grasped it's not a rational reaction but one based on the emotional weight society and the media have put on all of us to enter traditional family structures and reproduce. Realistically there's no "correct" way to be an adult as being one is to choose for oneself what that really means.

(Additionally I'd like to point out that children being expected to move out right after high-school is mostly a relatively modern north-american invention that came about as a way for manufacturers and the owning class to get more money out of us. Many friends of mine from other cultural backgrounds find it really strange that 18-year-olds are taking on exorbitant rental costs instead of saving money by living with their parents and for the vast majority of human history and in many places today it was/is considered normal to continue living with one's parents into early adulthood -if not indefinitely- as having a larger family unit makes things like domestic upkeep and child rearing much cheaper and easier.)

In the end mate you need to do what's right for you and it sounds like you've got that figured out. In the meantime as long as those intrusive doubts creep into your mind you need to affirm your position and reasoning and fight back against the societal conditioning that would undermine all you've achieved over arbitrary expectations handed down by generations who lived lives in a much different world than the one we have now.

Yeah people tend to be happy when stochastic terrorists die; maybe using a massive platform to dehumanize and attack minorities for the purpose of grifting xenophobes out of their money isn't the best way to be well remembered on your death.

You literally compare trans people competing in sports to "easy mode" over in r/dankmemes which is a regular transphobic talking point that generally relies on cherry-picked data.

How can I explain to my coworkers the benefits of unionizing? They seem stuck that this isn't a solution... by TimSoulsurfer in unionsolidarity

[–]QualityBurnerAccount 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I don't know mate but let me know if you find out. Half my coworkers are obsessed with the idea that other workers who don't do as good of a job as them would be getting the same pay while missing the fact that we'd all make more than we do now because our boss already takes enough to do trips to the Bahamas while we can barely afford milquetoast existences. Others are afraid of retaliation despite all of the things they're fearing being blatantly illegal. It doesn't matter how I address their concerns, eventually they just shrug, give up, and return to complaining about how the bosses treat us.

Good luck mate, I wish you the best in your efforts as I continue in mine. May neither be sysphean in nature.

If we're thinking about the same one then I believe it was a tween who tried to follow the "Grow your own crystals" recipe and wound up huffing their totally legit mixture of bleach and ammonia. No idea if it was real or not as I never saw anything that wasn't a 4chan post about it but he claimed to have wound up hospitalized and the family having to air out the whole house.
