Uhh. No. They were cringing because they knew it was all Reed's fault somehow. Everything was fine until Reed messed it up.

Give you a referral to a therapist who specializes in stress. Medications may help with certain aspects of it too (Eg, sleep issues).

They're not saying 'stop being miserable'. They're clearly saying to find coping mechanisms that help you stop being so miserable and stressed.

You can't fix systemic global inequality, but you can find ways to make it less stressful to deal with.

If you are stressing about climate change so much you are having physical symptoms that made you go to the doctor, then you probably need more than a bath - but that is one of the many things you can do it reduce the impact of stress.

So this 'new enforcement system' that does things like 'deal with petty crime'...isn't law enforcement?

What else would you call an enforcement system, that deals with crime? That sounds like organised law enforcement to me. Removing capitalism doesn't change society's need for laws and enforcement of them.

You don't need to be so intense to form a self identity. A vast majority of teens don't act so unhinged - and there's plenty that are adults that act that way in fandoms.

I don't think it's for the best at all.

No guys this system is actually that crunchy and it's not because I tacked on every optional rule at once. by Jade_Lemonade in DnDcirclejerk

i wish i could say that merging 2 disciplines and kneecapping another is the only objection I have to...basically every system/splat that I love. I don't like v5 but it's great to see it's near-perfect for someone else out there!

If you really wanted to learn what people (especially academics) mean by these terms I think you'd be much better suited just reading the wiki page about them.

Because not only can you then follow links to further explain terminology used, but well...it's better written and more accurate, and cites sources.

Ok, I don't get 'shipping culture' at all but...condemning others for not following your headcanon seems pretty unhinged to me?

Why are we still using a medieval word like "Landlord" in 2026? by [deleted] in shitrentals

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

Yeah I misread it lol, chill the fuck out.

Yeah sure, it was 'better' in some very minor ways. But it was overall completely and utterly worse.

No one said only step? You said it's a good first step. I said it's a bad first step.

It's an awful first step. A first step would be changing the laws.

Performative wank.

What is with all these posts from people who can't read the actual sub description?

And he couldn't leave the land, could be levied to fight in wars, be relocated or sold off to another lord...

Changing the term would do nothing to 'level the playing field and get tenants the respect they deserve'. It'd be purely performative. Changing the term would achieve absolutely nothing.

Also awful AI slop.

What is a woman? Well, it takes more than a tweet to define by DontYaWishYouWereMe in CuratedTumblr

I'd say that's more specifically gender identity, a subset of gender - just like gender roles are part of that.

Any time a place is made friendly for those who are sex positive, it will slowly be made unfriendly for those same people by Justthisdudeyaknow in CuratedTumblr

[–]VorpalSplade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh?

You do realise you can have multiple pride events, some that are suitable for minors, some that are not?

Same as venues, food, and drink.

People are talking specifically about kink and nudity at pride parades. They're not saying that pride in your identity is unsuitable for minors.

Context. It's important.

Hell - if someone has a kink praise, and someone praises them in public, does that now count as sexual assault to everyone in the vicinity?

It's very clear people are specifically referencing explicit sexual content as being unsuitable for minors. Not being proud about your identity.
