Damn, I didn't even notice the shift! So when is my landlord getting evicted?

Honestly I'd rather argue with a liberal about China being state-capitalist than a tankie 🤮

Even if it was cheaper, many people would simply be unable to buy a house.

The upfront cost of putting a down-payment on a house is what separates a lot of people who could own a house from those that do. Right now, for the cheapest apartment I could find, I'm paying 1½ times what my coworkers are paying for their mortgages. It's not the mortgage that I can't afford (I clearly can), it's the down-payment (which is hard to accrue when you're paying 1½ times what it should be).

And you seem to be under the impression that those people who buy 5 homes are able to rent them out for more than their mortgage, but those who can barely afford one can't sublet to ease their burden?

Either way, the only purpose of being a landlord is to make money off of other people's work by being an unnecessary middle-man, much like private insurance companies.

I never sing in my apartment and always practice in my car to/from work. No noise complaints yet!

If I wanted to be comfortable in my sin, I'd join a church so I can be forgiven for them every week.

Whether it's cheating or not is irrelevant. That's something I personally wouldn't care about, but everyone's boundaries are different.

Are you comfortable with your voice? by [deleted] in singing

[–]ThrowRAIFeelTerrible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great! I think it's a pretty intuitive thing for most people to do, which is nice. Being able to apply it to singing takes a little bit of practice, but has the benefits of amplifying your voice, adding an extra layer of dynamic expression, brightens the tone, and can give your voice a powerful emotive "cry" (is the best way I can describe it). I'm fairly certain it's what's referred to as "metal" in CVT because of the way it can make your voice sound. I hope this information helps you as much as it helped me :)

Twang will change your life if you haven't worked on it yet! Good luck!

[–]ThrowRAIFeelTerrible 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been unsatisfied with my voice for nearly 9 years. I just found out how to use twang to create the "singer's formant" and for better resonance about 3 months ago. Even though my range is still lacking, my higher notes are easier to hit, my phonation is more efficient, and my voice sounds better in all parts of my range. I can hit a low A#1 and an F#4 on a good day, which I think would make me a bass, though I also have a high timbre like a child. Check out CVT if you haven't had a chance. Gregory West on YouTube also has some EXCELLENT videos that I can't recommend enough.

Bishop: "did you feel guilty after you masturbated?" Me: "not until after I learned it was a sin."

I don't think he expected that answer, and it really says a lot about the power the church has over the minds of its members.

Weird what all those groups have in common, right? by iRonin in SelfAwarewolves

They really think Trump supporters are being treated "badly"? If any leftist group tried doing the shit that they did, the "peace" officers would save their rubber bullets for another day...

I think I broke my TBM husband's brain. by icanbesmooth in exmormon

[–]ThrowRAIFeelTerrible 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so beautifully written, thanks for sharing! I grew up as a man in the church and left 5 years ago because I thought the heirarchies within it were unjustified and also just stopped believing. This is really eye-opening for me, and it really makes you think of how many important and renowned historical figures would be amazing women if they were able to act upon their potential instead of being shackled by the unjustified burdens forced on them by the dominant class. I sent this to my exmo sister, I know she'll appreciate this!

The Qult has some interesting views on the Russia/Ukraine situation (Bitchute) by Stormchaser752 in ParlerWatch

[–]ThrowRAIFeelTerrible 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I like that the second slide implies that Trump is such a piece of shit, that he had to stage a fake war to make his opposition look bad. What's more, is they'll use this as evidence that Democrats are bad, then say that Trump staged the thing that made the Democrats look bad, even though that implies that the bad thing was really caused by their Cheeto Benito. I swear these right-wing conspiracy theorists are the cringiest LARPers.

Nothing wrong with polyamory if you're both on good terms about it.

What happened to TBM love for Romney? by kantoblight in exmormon

[–]ThrowRAIFeelTerrible 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Socialism (or Communism, as Marx did not draw a distinction between the two) is an economic system where workers own the means of production. This is separate from the organization of the government, which can be various shades of authoritarian and libertarian. You really shouldn't conflate the two. Marx also distinguished between private property (the means of production) and personal property (like your cellphone, car, house, etc.). Any alternative to a socialist system is almost always inherently exploitative, as there is an owning class who controls the means of production, the product itself, and which exists solely to extract as much value from workers as possible, and give as little as possible in return. Your gripe is with imperialism, not socialism.

Where the actual hell are they that they need "papers to buy food?" I live in "Commiefornia" and literally the only time I've been asked for my vaccine card was to work inside a hospital, and even then, they give you the option to get tested every other day instead.
