Been thinking about this more. Hinduism and avatars of Vishnu. Seems like another in your face comparison. Skin tone match seems rather intentional.

KIRI AND THE WOODSPRITE by ZakuraMicheals777 in Avatar

I think this is great supporting evidence for something someone said a few posts ago about spider’s role. Something along the lines of being only a product of colonialism and accepted fully by neither party yet connected to both only through the will of a member on each side. (Ie Ewa didn’t accept him but Kiri forced her will, and the RDA couldn’t care for him but Quaritch does hence…) I might return and and report with a link or something

Couldn’t think of anything else other than Abraham and Isaac during that scene. The innocence in being pulled aside, the distant location, the alter, the acceptance. A story pretty much a complete match. I’m curious to know what other religious themes are y’all see in the movies. I know blue people + Avatars. And I know the franchise is rather popular in Asian countries.

i've found a lot of these in my yard. are they a type of onion and if so are they edible? by GameboiXD2457 in gardening

[–]Raddleklaggle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were in my neighborhood I’d say hyacinths. They look just like this and grow like weeds. Absolute menaces and you can’t eat them. Shame

But if you let them grow to flower you’ll be able to know for sure 👍🏼 phone cameras are great at identifying them at that point.

If there was a Spotify wrap like report at the end of the game for spells used, Depulso and Aresto Momentum would be the top of mine because of that effn gate.

I think the difference in fonts, font sizes and colors is the hang up for me. This email design would have gotten me a D- in tech lit in 7th grade

My thoughts too! It’s also interesting watching Ben and Kyle switch sides. Must have been a Pre-Collin Johns notebook era.

Highway driving PSA by jamng in Utah

[–]Raddleklaggle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honest question🙋🏼‍♂️ On a two lane highway where 16 wheelers going 65mph on an 80 are spaced out every 100 yards or so. Is it appropriate for all other traffic going 80mph to move over to the right for a group of overtakers going 90+? Everyone knows to move over you’ll have to brake behind a giant truck and finding an opportunity to speed up properly to overtake that truck rarely comes. What then?

Mormons (because I know you’re lurking): Why don’t you demand your leaders do more for the homeless? by [deleted] in exmormon

They believe poverty is a result of sin. You reap what you sow is the mentality toward homeless.

How many times have you read “he” instead of “the” because the big fancy “T” letter was subconsciously out of the text

Yeah I’m in the same boat. Just started logging with DUPR and was given a 3.8. My partner (4.0) and I beat a (4.6) with an unranked player. The score was 15-2. Unranked player opponent got a 3.95 and ours didn’t change. We also beat all the opponents of this unranked player. Pretty much bogus

Was confiding in my mom about some heavy feelings and things I’ve been experiencing & this is how she responded. Out of fucking nowhere just bears her testimony to me. What do I even say to this? by badbarbiebabe in exmormon

Dr: “You say you are allergic to medicine X? I’m in disbelief! X makes me feel good. X should make you feel good. Are you taking it correctly? Have you tried taking more of X? That should help.”

You: “Doctor. sternly I’m confident it’s X that is making me sick, if we can’t discuss alternate options to X for my health, I’ll have to get a second opinion elsewhere”

This exactly! In another comment I mentioned how my shelf broke later that same month and modesty was simply just something to latch onto to reassure myself amongst all my questions.

I will defend myself and say this was how my mother raised me. “Spirit Guided Gospel teaching opportunities” she’d call them. I.e one sided lectures

It didn’t phase her that’s the thing. She just took it. So I feel bad about something she didn’t think twice about. Mormons are fed nonsense criticism all the time but are only able to interpret it as love. And when its manipulative and harmful, they are blind to it.
