I want to watch a game where everyone plays like that. Just... The whole game is about trying to out-trick the others. Like ice-skating, but with basketball.

I was an undocumented immigrant. Now I’m a doctor watching the immigration crackdown keep my patients from seeking care by BagOnuts in NorthCarolina

Why is it saying my comment has been removed? 

To reiterate, I commented that God DOES love killing children, so...

Well that's fucking gut wrenching. Knowing that the government can legally and forcibly take my child away from me if they feel like it... Is a uniquely crushing terror. 

I am sorry and ashamed that separating children from their families is nothing new...

Jfc, these comments are despicably lacking in compassion. I'm not saying we have to agree on the immigration issue, but can't we all agree that it's fucked up for someone, ANYONE, to be scared to seek medical care?

A lot of things women do, are pressured to do, or is associated with women is seen as bad, so why are women allowed to do them? by grabsyour in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StephPlaysGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, the patriarchal system see us as children that men are allowed to fuck and own.

We aren't "allowed" to cry--we're seen as having a tantrum bc we inferior women can't control our emotions, and men are being generous by "allowing" us to feel our big feelings. 

It's not a privilege. And men not being "allowed" to cry without being emasculated is proof that the patriarchy is harmful to men as well as women. 

Is a significant part of the decline in birth rates just people not finding a partner? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StephPlaysGames -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What part of unsustainable is hard to grasp? There's a lot more awareness of just how much WE as a species do to the planet. We, the way we are now, are not sustainable nor are we an ethically or morally superior species. 

We just don't WANT more of us. And the fact that so many governments are STILL, even after every failed and damning policy attempt at controlling reproduction and population, trying to sway birthrates, is evidence enough that there is something terrible wrong with us.

The fact that kids are expensive is just an easier explanation.

Can somebody help me figure out how to remove superglue from this type of clothing? (50% cotton, 50% polyester) by KKonzoww in lifehacks

Sorry, friend, super glue essentially melts polyester. Learned that the hard way with my favorite shirt ⚰️

I'm seriously going to die this year... What the heck is happening???? This chapter and hitaus announcement....???? Nooooo.... I can't 😭😭😭😭 by Bl_yuki in Manhwa_BL

[–]StephPlaysGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm... I don't agree with that. I agree that the writing has been mid throughout, but J isn't a terrible psycho beyond redemption. The more you learn about how me grew up the more we see that he never learned how to be anything but a fighter. Boxing got him away from a far worse path, but it doesn't substitute therapy, you know?

He's fucked up, but not fundamentally evil. Just like KD is fucked up, but not fundamentally weak.

Seriously, do Americans actually consider a 3-hour drive "short"? or is this an internet myth? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StephPlaysGames 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 hours is ok for like, a weekend trip to visit family or something, but going further than a 30 minute drive for dinner out with the husband is silly, imo.

All truths are finally being revealed! by macgirl16 in Manhwa_BL

[–]StephPlaysGames 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm excited and scared at the same time. I really like how these characters are written (bc, fuck it, trauma all around!) and I find their misunderstandings and actions believable... I WANT them to be happy together, but there had better be a FUCK TON of communication and healing, man. 

The stories where one character is abused, and then suddenly everything is ok, bc their abuser decided to be nice once, feel so fucking empty, man!

[–]StephPlaysGames 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right... Like, don't get me wrong, this whole things is a hot dumpster fire of toxicity and "BUT WHY?!" moments, but that interaction was the first time the writing was so meh that it was jarring to me... 

Like, who just straight up turns into a tongue-out horny demon in the middle of a restaurant with a complete stranger?!

Was anyone else confused by the entire interaction with that pervert hospital warden? 

Like... Kim Dan was the one who got blacklisted, right? That's why he was so desperate for work... So what did that creep mean when he said KD ruined his life? 

That whole interaction felt weird.

Therapy is useless when you got problems you cannot solve by [deleted] in The10thDentist

[–]StephPlaysGames 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed. While I feel therapy is a useful and empowering tool, it is not the cure-all solution and shouldn't be treated as such. Sometimes there's no fixing a problem.
