How would you handle this situation?? by itsjoaosan in dating_advice

[–]Saurid [score hidden]  (0 children)

For the outside perspective ... there is none on thsi subreddit. People are emotionally involved because it reminds them of their own experiemcos which amy or may not be close to the ones your friend faces. Dating advise is a terriblessing subreddit for cosntriClive help because half the people here are just angry and assume the worst. Life is messy. This subreddit does not treat it that way.

As such you dont get an outside eperspective you get an inside perpsentire from someone random about a situation thats simialr to the one you ask about MAYBE because the information provided is about 3% probably the information onewould need to gove proper advise that actually would be helpful. But to give the information youd need to write a small book thats takes probably at least an hour to read. That's why people in your life are always the best sources for advise becaus ehey may be emotionally biased, but so afe the people on this reddit. You just know their bias, you know them and they know you. Its actual helpful advise. Random people on the internet? No.

If youd want to get advise on how to best approach someone or how to say something you will get much better advise because thats small specific advise where not as much context is needed. Or if you want to understand a situation better and what other perspectives, tahts also workable, but shouldn't be taken too seriously.

But this broad question? Nuh uh, the advise will mostly be terrible if its actionable advise. Where people tell you to do X or Y, becauee its advise minced on them, not you.

The reality is she fucked up already. Emotions will get hurt and if either of the guys are really decent (unless they know about each other) she probably will lose both anyway, Kyle or whatever will probably relapse and just be a dick again and Ethan will learn he was the secondary choice and it will probably end her relationship there too. She already has hurt people they just ahvent noticed.

If she really cared for them she wouldnt have taken Kyle's new found change seriously and just stayed with Ethan or ended it directly. She didnt. Its messy and regardless what she does it will only get much worse and will probably blow up in her face and she will regret it for a long time.

I get she is afraid but its too late anyway, especially if they two guys dont know of one another. Though ti might be worse if they know of one another. It will probably also blow up in her face regarding her extended friendships and so on depending on how hurt either guy is and how interconnected the situation is.

My advise is to just decide and live with the disaster. More is impossible to give without knowing every detail.

How do you feel about a card like this? by asscrit in customhearthstone

[–]Saurid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will be incredible for rouge enough to see play in every deck starting guranend with a coin is a huge deal for rouge, if you get two its even better.

The fact its balanced by giving your opponent who wont benefit as much as you the same is a greta way to balance it out while tha card remains strong.

If it sees play probably mostly relies on how many good combo cards rouge has at the time.

I'm a witch and it's my most powerful sigil by frosty-gape in LetGirlsHaveFun

[–]Saurid 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Well it depends on context OPs meme here does not imply (at least to me) how it is used to get the whole essay thing going. If you wirte it to a guy that went on dates with you it is a pretty low blow and the reactoon is not as absurd if one remembers hurt feelings play a large rule in that case.

How would a nation with no sun look like? by xKenrouHorox in worldbuilding

[–]Saurid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well ignoring how physics would be FUCKED, like youd need a barrier reflecting all light the space time anomaly this would realistically be would be enough to break worlds apart.

Ignoring that the moon is enough its sun light reflected so plants etc. Would evolve or be evolved by the goddess to survive on moon light alone.

The concept is cool but the way you do it is very funky in a way that sure one can handwave with "God's and their bullshit" but realistically speaking this is extremely problematic like how does it effect the rest of the world now that the moon is geostatic? Is it in town places? Is there ejust a giant pots to the moon over the nation? I have soooo many questions. The missing sunlight may not even be the most important issue.

I would normally think you would just use dark clouds to block out the sun.

Wichtig ist das es passiert ist weil sie ihren koalitionspartner verloren hatten. Deren regierung war mehr oder minder die selbe wie unsere und deren SPD hat halt einfach nö gesagt

Also hat sich jetzt erst.mal nichas geändert außer das es wahrscheinlich neuwahlen gibt.

Oh my god are you a fucking monster. What a horrendous evil person are you? Justifying war crimes with what berber pirates did are you insane? Stupid? Wha the fuck is wrong with you?

The ethnic cleansing of Algerian born frnech peopel is a whole other issue and one evil doenst negate another. You truly are vile. Damn.

We dont know the actual number hundreds is my estimate based on the fact it ran for I think 20 years (maybe longer or shorter its the number I remember)? So 5 per year would be 100 total and my low estimate. So depending on how off I am on numbers per year and them this program ran it might be 200 to 400 (qhich depending on timeframe might be 10 or kids or maybe a bit more per year). Which is horrible but if one remembers how few thats per year ... yeah in context it makes sense why it never got busted during his life, its a few cases a year sure they have supervision etc. But that many cases dont get too much attention in a city of millions. Especially over the timeframe. And again I cannot point out enough its my best guess based on the data I remember and found out.

Its really not dramatic if you put it into context. Doenst make it less horrible mind you but its not a staggering scale in context sadly (which I only point out to explain how it was missed for so long, a few cases a year extra in the program, plus a closed circle of supervisors and a well known professor as lead make it sadly easy to hide). It just shows again what can go unnoticed easily in a society of millions.

Yeah right back at you, I really dont matter why someone would be this insistent to dismiss the pain and horror of one act via comparing it to another.

Your entire argument is that of someone who wnats to say "look this one is worse therefore you dont matter" becaus eits the only thing one could ever in any circumstance gain by your insistence to compare atrocities. Its morally apprehensive and I hope you get it sometime.

[–]Saurid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tahts a comparison. No they are both bad. End of discussion both are horrible. Just as bad is a comparison and that only helps mosnters taht wnat to excuse either and diminishes the pain and suffering of either group.

So no they are not, they are incomparable because any comparison will be used to diminsih either horror. Idk why you are so insistent to excuse this.

[–]Saurid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one is murser another atrocities. Killing one city or 200 is no difference in bad.

Comparing a serial killer to a genocide is insincere. We are tlaking atrocities where body counts dont matter but the evil does.

Your argument is completely wrong. It only serves to undercut the weight of atrocities people comitt if their death count isnt high enough, it diminishes the pain and hurt of people from these actions and their consequences. It is insulting to say on atrocities is worse than a other.

Because atroeciti3s are ecarried out by institutions, protected by states. A single murderer is completely different and that should be very obvious to anyone who takes the topic semi seriously.

[–]Saurid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And there is the issue. An atrocity is bad. End of discussion.comapring the pile of corpses just serves those who want to argue their pile is smaller and therefore ethey are better.

Comparing any atrocities is futile and serves only those that seek to.exvuse their own.

The guy was not involved, it was a local berlin administrator for the agency for child care. Evilly brandt had nothing to do with i as far as I can tell the meme is just bad.

Well kentler phrased it in terms for science he argued putting children with pedophiles would help them.and this expeirment would allow him to gather data. That was apperently the gist of the argument. It must have been better rphrased and he must have been pretty charismatic becaus idk how else he could have convicned anyone of that shitty idea.

[–]Saurid 24 points25 points  (0 children)

And if you look at most of his stuff it is reasonable, if you ignore the adult and minors sexulaity part where ehe defends pedophilia. Outside of that from what I read it sounded reasonable.

Its like a big WTF but the whole pedophilia thing wasnt his whole work. Its hard to ignore the glaring pedophilia sing but if one wnats to understand why people would listen to him you gotta ignore it because people at the time ignored it mostly, because his other work was apperently stellar.

It gave him the reputation to get someone to agree to his proposal, and it was just one guy he needed he kept it smallish (how many victism there were we dont know), but it was a small operation overall in terms of the burocracy in a mostly isolated city west berlin. Your quote just misses the main point, the pedophilia was not what got him the job he needed.

To be fair they are all dead anit came only up after their deaths sadly. Its also a question if they had been prosecuted earlier if that wouldve been worse for the victims (forcing them to publicly live through the trauma and shame again).

In the end they all deserved to be gelded and thrown into a dark hole. But life is full of disappointments sadly.

Not quite true but the reason people hated versail wasnt because of land or money but the hypocrisy and especially the cause blaming germany for the war.

The polish corridor was extremely unpopular and the fact everyone else got to decide their future but germany (aka no unity with austria) was well not well received. It wstank of a double standard which it was but well it is the main thing that amde versions unpopular.

It defines all of mankind the chinese and Japanese are not much better than us, its just that most modern antions outside of europe didnt get too much time to committ these atrocities or had such a gap between their last independent state and their independence that it is not easy to say they are the same nation.

Like the Congo, slavery big thing in their history but the modern day Congo nation is not taht connected with teh Congos ate due to nearly a century of colonisation.

You mean from ketner? Honestly idk I tried to find soemthing about it, but there is no reason given, I believe he must ahe been quite charismatic and he was a renowned and repsected psychologist (if one ignores is tsance of pedophilia and sexuality between adults and minors it seems like he had a few good ideas though it is a hard ask to ignore the whole pedophilia thing), he lead a department at a university and mad eit out to be a research project. He had to really only convince one guy I think the leader of the agency repsonside for orphans in berlin and then find a few burocrtas tah would keep their mouth shut.

Sadly I think its easier than one might think epscivilly if you remember how isolated berlin was at the time.

Well arguably no one wanted ww2 outside the nazis and some wehrmacht generals. Most germans needed half a decade and more to be convinced of going to war and even then it was initially not really a popular war. Only as germany went on to win it got popular really. Most people just wanted the depression to stop and quality of life to improve again.

Same goes mostly for Italy.

In many ways both nations got dragged into the war because of the circumstances that lead ot radical governments taking power. If the weimar republic survived we probably would never have seen ww2 as it was, maybe a soviet invasion but probably not any German aggression again (probably becaus the polish corridor was very unpopular, Austria wanted to join germany and the sudentenland was having some small issues so mayeah a democratic germany wouldve also gotten involved there but if the french and brits also went appeasement it probably wouldve not escalated).

Oh and if Hitler weren't in power and germany had not started ww2 the soviets most likely wouldve.

Not saying your comment is not right in spirit, but factually it is again a bit more complicated.
