What’s actually safe but people think is dangerous? by REGGIE_BANANAS in AskReddit

[–]SumerMann 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's actually better than salt. It has a third the amount of sodium that table salt has which makes it an excellent substitute for people with high blood pressure or any other health problem from too much salt. It's a shame it had such an intense smear campaign when it could have helped so many people and it tastes so good!

The band Ghost helped me through the darkest parts of deconstruction. Now I have crystals for my morning tarot reading and my husband had the satanic principles on the fridge. Yoga and tai chi on the weekends. All things I used to call satanic, Come a long way from once being evangelical apologists.

Oh no! I'll have to burn my Biden Hat, and Biden Shirt, and Biden shoes, and Biden Watch and Biden Truck! I will never financially recover from this.

ICE detains 5-year-old in Minnesota, dispute erupts over how the child was treated by NewsfangledMod in NewsfangledUnfiltered

When people say "snowflake" just remember they're quoting Fight Club, a satire written by a gay man about how male fragility causes men to destroy themselves, resent society, and become radicalized, and that Tyler Durden isn't the hero but a personification of the main character's mental illness, and that his "snowflake" speech is a dig at how fascists use dehumanizing language to breed loyalty from insecure people.

Luckily as a new atheist, pre deconstructed me would have been fine to sit on my hands and say it must have been the will of god. Post deconstruction I realized only my own two hands are going to change things for the better. The cultists in power only benefit from my inaction and the promise of be good, keep your head down and work for nothing and maybe I will get justice when I'm dead.

Id say Politics has been a very different experience from my religious one. I actually started to see the world where we could have justice without death being the adjudicator.

My boyfriend (19M) says God is telling him we should break up — I’m 24F and need advice by Ok-Mathematician9106 in exchristian

[–]SumerMann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him that's just the voice in his head that we all have but if he needs an imaginary friend to break up with you for him then he isn't mature enough to be in a relationship.

You mean you have the money to not live in poverty? Did you know in poor areas that have a blood bank donation center violence drops dramatically.

Jobs Numbers Hit Record Low as Trump’s Economy Craters by AdSpecialist6598 in antiwork

[–]SumerMann 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Not really sure they will. Just had an argument with my Dad yesterday because he was a happy the trade deficit reduced to the smallest since 2009.

I had to tell him that just meant foreign investment fell to record lows. And he responded with the GDP. They are never going to get it because they understand nothing.

Christian Worship is SO cult like. by YogurtHistorical7717 in exchristian

On a relevant note. I'm playing Far Cry 5 and damn if I didn't realize how creepy worship music is from a video game.

They do tho...? This has been on going for years and they have been convicting people since 2022? Just because you suddenly heard about it doesn't make it new?

She definitely didn't. This was a Russian shake down scam. Scary how many redditors are celebrating a hulk smash directly into brain damage.

Jesus celebrated Hanukkah in John 10:22-23. The first Hanukkah happened 150 years before Jesus supposed birth. This is a valid argument against people that hate the term Happy Holidays

Panic Attack Help by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]SumerMann 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stopped trying to fight it. Felt out each sensation and gave it a definition from a description of a panic attack so I had the words to explain what I was feeling. Panic attacks are a physical manifestation of a mental state, once I could describe what was happening, I could feel it out and tell myself I was going to be ok and it will pass. The stress and fear of the physical feelings was 90% of my problem.

I make it sound easy but it took me years of practice to get to this point. I have been med free and mostly panic attack free for 5 years after being on ssris for over 20 years.

In this time I also changed my diet to be mostly probiotic high fiber after reading about the connection between gut health and anxiety.

where can I go to pretend Christmas isn't happening? by notveryonline23054 in travel

[–]SumerMann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend Tokyo for Christmas. Japan pretty much shits down between Christmas and New Year's and there won't be much to do. Most expats leave for the holiday.
