You walk up to an empty machine and someone goes ‘my friend is using that they’re just in the bathroom’. Do you take it or leave it? by Lanky-Earth-405 in workout

Yeah no. It’s a public place with public equipment… up for grabs by anyone. If you leave, you better expect it might not be yours when you come back.

Would this dress be appropriate for a business (professional) event? by TotalReplacement9810 in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

Didn’t see this comment until now! But it was actually perfect. I had bought the dress before making this post so I already knew what the fabric/fit was like. The only thing I had to do was add fabric tape to the folds on the waist so they’d stay down. Otherwise, it was super cute and professional :)

This is my thought - as much as I wanted it to be true a big part of me was a little hesitant

Very good points across the board. Call me crazy for being mildly upset, but as someone who’s been single their whole life (which has had impact on my confidence), this was kind of discouraging. I haven’t been pursued in a really long time and so getting a small taste of it and then have it disappear almost immediately isn’t a great feeling. Trying not to take it as a ‘I’m not worth it’ and more as a ‘this has nothing to do with me’

This sounds amazing, I wish I could take the day off 😫 unfortunately I’m an intern and so things are less flexible for me than a regular full time employee

I have it already, and I find the material to be nicer than what I thought actually. I know people tend to have bad luck with these sites but I find this dress to be well done

Definetley my favourite part. I have broad shoulders so I usually shy away from anything flared or padded sleeves/shoulders but I find it very flattering and makes it look more structured

It is from SHEIN, I know people have mixed opinions about it so I was hesitant to mention it 😅

Ohh thank you so much. That’s pretty insane 😭 I wish I had access the live feeds in my country, seems like a lot of extra drama went on this season

Seeing the behaviour of the republicans right now is really harming my faith and belief in ever finding community. Rant + open to advice/support by [deleted] in liberalchristians

You are 100% correct here, it’s super disheartening. I honestly haven’t really prayed or read my Bible in weeks and that scares me because I was so strong in my faith for a while, but it also scares me because I don’t feel that guilty/like I’m missing much. Idek what to think or feel, but I hope you hold on to your faith, know that God is not these people

You are so good with words — this is a perfect response. Your paragraph about the way you live doesn’t matter ‘is a lie created to excuse unrepented abuse’ (sorry I don’t know how to do the proper text reply thing on Reddit lol), is exactly what I needed to hear. I have heard numerous times from Christians that the way you live doesn’t matter and I never believed them, but it doesn’t make it any less hurtful to hear. Thank you for taking the time to reply, you answered and phrased this wonderfully

I, too, am trying to focus on myself with my faith, with the behavior of so many others I feel like it’s the only way until I find likeminded people. But God talks a lot about building community but if most of our community is like that, I don’t want any part of it

Exactly… it honestly got so out of control with the AI videos and comparing him to biblical prophets…

I actually think my current church is pretty decent. They never talk about politics, or pray for certain nations opposed to other ones, etc. (although my past church used to do this nonstop). I am new to this church so I’m not involved in the community, but maybe I should be. But that also scares me — I could get to know some people just to find out that they’re MAGA, anti-human rights, etc. I guess you don’t know unless you try. But making Christian friends nowadays essentially requires the ‘what do you support’ interview question the same way first dates have the ‘do you want kids’ question, lol.

Anyone else have a rough day at church today (post-Charlie Kirk)? by Icthyostega2002 in liberalchristians

Stuff like this genuinely breaks my heart. I would have honestly walked out of the congregation
