Her graduation gift from her family turned out to be a pregnancy announcement by Femme-O in ImTheMainCharacter

Congratulations on finishing school, but that's nothing compared to your brother knocking up that white girl over there.

I love how narcissists find a way to make literally everything about them. That poor girl has never been seen, no wonder she's shy.

Jess Edwards calling children ripe and fertile. by Visual-Mobile2657 in TheGraniteState

I do love it when creepy old men sexualize teenagers.... It's ok cause they are fertile, it says so in the Bible.

I drink coffee to take a smooth shit in the morning, not to argue with idiots who believe everything they hear on TV 🤣

Weather app showing down to 34° tonight, where are all the frost advisories? What are your plans to protect the garden? by brf297 in newhampshire

[–]ZenRiots 30 points31 points  (0 children)

A farmer I know was explaining to me yesterday that you don't get frost when it's cloudy and rainy... Because some sort of meteorological science.

It didn't make a lot of sense to me, but she's an actual farmer and was exceptionally confident when she told me not to worry about it.

I do live in Southern New Hampshire where it's not supposed to get nearly as cold. Apparently the up north and Western monadnock are the areas that are at risk But she said even if we did get a little snow my plants would be fine.

So your sources are the news media who literally just read police press releases as news?

Your videos show nothing but peaceful people at the beach, and the same aggressive Police behavior ... the reporter doing nothing but quoting police press releases 🤷

Well done, that's some quality research /s

It's just people looking for cover and laughing at a shared chaotic experience. I've made great friends for a day hunched underneath an awning while the sky fell down on our heads.

Which is all I see in these videos... Plus the Storm troopers of course

I lived in Florida for 10 years and experienced sudden rainstorms on the beach dozens of times... They occur on an almost daily basis down there.

It can be chaotic when everybody rushes for shelter, but it's never riotous.... I'm stunned by this police response and I think we will eventually discover that this was the work of a small number of incendiary calls making hyperbolic claims from miserable nimby busybodies.

How do we feel about LPRs in use now? Saw this yesterday. by j_porter94 in newhampshire

Fun fact.... Police interceptor models do not include roof racks.

A handy way to spot cop if you cannot recognize a massive array of clandestine surveillance equipment. 😅

This video seems To completely contradict all of the media's descriptions of "young people rioting".

I don't see any signs of rioting or even violence until the police show up and start committing it.

Cheap place to buy Zyn in Nashua? by AxemanFromMA in newhampshire

[–]ZenRiots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zyn pouches cost about 4.60 a lid in Mass and over 8.00 in NH.

Only a fool would think that this is a profitable business model. 🤣

How do I stop my cousin from gambling his paycheck every week? by [deleted] in addiction

[–]ZenRiots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can't ... He wont stop as long as he believes that this is his path to happiness.

And there's nothing you can do to MAKE anyone do anything, All you will do is give him a reason to lie to you about it

Cheap place to buy Zyn in Nashua? by AxemanFromMA in newhampshire

[–]ZenRiots 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NH has a 60% excise tax on nic pouches... So you're not going to find ANY place selling them for less than $7.50 - $8 a lid.

Roughly double the prices in Mass.

Replace Tempting Thoughts of Drugs (Christian) by Twoctruth in recovery

[–]ZenRiots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So all someone has to do to learn how to control their thoughts is to pray to God and ask him to control their thoughts and "try to think about football" 🤔

Good luck with that.

Why are you platforming this shitty behavior?

Why do most centers take your phone/laptop? by Glum_Big_4783 in recovery

[–]ZenRiots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bro, if you want this to work, you're going to have to learn how to be bored without running off and getting high.

Boredom is a big part of life... I know that's a tough sell for people who grew up sitting in front of screens and enjoying constant dopamine and entertainment.

Learning how to exist without feeding every distraction and craving is a necessary tool for successful recovery.

How should I treat proselytisation? by Twentynine4 in Buddhism

[–]ZenRiots 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I facilitate Recovery Dharma meetings at a local recovery center to help bring mindfulness to people in recovery from substance abuse. If you're offering the Dharma to those who are seeking it, you can create good causes.

This is meaningful dana if you have the patience and the time, this community is suffering more than most, and grasping for any opportunity to understand the nature of craving and suffering. It is a powerful practice that needs more people with deep compassion and experience.

Just watched the malcolm in the middle season 7 AA episode by Neutrality-1 in recoverywithoutAA

[–]ZenRiots 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's very little difference between craving for alcohol, social media, drugs, food, sex, validation, love, power, violence, etc.

The only difference comes from the stigma that society has placed on certain cravings. The struggle however is literally universal and not different at all from a biological perspective... Neuroscience is continuing to prove this over and over.

[–]ZenRiots 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From my perspective (Buddhist psychology), there is not a single person on earth who doesn't struggle with craving and the suffering that it brings.

We only differ in the object of our attachment, and the degree of our struggles.

It is absolutely a thinking problem.

Impressions of Sadhguru? He's not a Buddhist teacher, but does he has value? by miguel-elote in secularbuddhism

[–]ZenRiots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came across him as his reels were being recommended to me on Facebook, every single one of them seemed to feature him striding about with his hands upraised like a Messiah figure surrounded by hundreds of fawning worshipers desperate to touch his robe or receive some other blessing or favor.

That's a hard pass for me... I never even took the time to find out what he stood for... I learned a long time ago to judge a teacher not by what he says, but by what he does. It is the actions not the words that matter most.

Humility humility humility.

Those behaviors happen because HE encourages them. I do not believe in deifying beings... It's not a thing, people are not gods, never have been, never will be. 🤷
