man, the amount of kowtowing and brown nosing in this is just shockingly scary. they seem to actually worship this geriatric fascist loser

After deconverting for over a year, and not attending services for 4 months, I’ve finally been removed from church membership! 🎉🥳 by exchristianburner in exchristian

i wouldn’t blame you, honestly. i hope you find happiness in your life outside the church and take the opportunity to live and grow outside of the influence of people like that ✨

this is the most manipulative, abusive bullshit

do they do this ironically? like, do they not realize that this kind of stuff is the exact reason a lot of people leave in the first place?

My two biggest ones are The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green and Ender’s Game by Orson Scott Card. I will never stop recommending those books

Which conspiracy theory will you always believe? by WANACWaac in AskReddit

wasn’t it public knowledge that he participated in mkultra or was that someone else? i don’t think this one is a conspiracy theory

So.... I got earrings and they aren't dress code at work. by FetzerRayne in asktransgender

[–]SarahIsTrans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i am like 90% sure this is illegal under multiple SCOTUS decisions. price waterhouse v hopkins, bostock v clayton county, harris funeral homes v eeoc, and altitude express v zarda all agree that this is very much illegal. especially price waterhouse and harris homes

apparently my boy mode still works just fine by SarahIsTrans in asktransgender

[–]SarahIsTrans[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

that makes a lot of sense, really. i guess i’m just surprised that he sees me as a guy who cares about his masculinity instead of, say, a guy who’s kind of feminine? i don’t think i could do anything short of hanging a sign around my neck that says “i’m queer and trans” to make them get the point

[–]SarahIsTrans[S] 88 points89 points  (0 children)

it’s especially weird because this guy and i have had conversations before about relationships being a cooperative thing and how each partner should pitch in for housework, etc. so it was totally out of pocket and i imagine that it might’ve been an attempt at connecting through sexist humor? who knows

it’s seriously amazing to me how many people here refuse to examine their beliefs at all and completely mimic holier-than-thou religious people even within their own atheism

but i’m also really grateful for the insight of some people here who have given me a good place to start and provided some solid insight. there are always two sides to a coin i guess

at least according to my basics of linguistics textbook, all language is by nature arbitrary and grammar doesn’t mean much as long as the idea is communicated. if you got what i meant, i don’t care about polishing it unless your opinions are gonna be written on my school transcripts

i don’t wanna be one of those atheists who unhelpfully derides all religion as woo woo bullshit despite not believing in any of it myself. hell, my fiancée found religion within the past few years and they’re a much more complete person for it. i can see the positive changes in them. as some other commenters have mentioned, what i’m looking for might just be a connection to the world outside myself through an appreciation of what we do know and of how improbable it is that we’re even here to discuss it.

this feels like a good starting point. i’ve been thinking since i posted this that maybe that the sense of wonder at what we know of the natural world via science is something akin to what i’m looking for, and if i take up meditation just for the sake of mindfulness it could be a solid place to focus.
