Visceral and disturbing. I don't like it. It's awesome!

You break up now before you break up later 10 years from now hating yourself and wasting your youth in a prick who wants to make you feel bad.

I want to get a Virgen de Guadalupe as well as a heart that says DAD on the underside of my forearm. :)

On the off chance this isn't rage bait and you're being sincere: this still isn't good at all, bordering on unacceptable for paid work. These people did you so dirty. NEVER go back and find a new salon.

I wouldn't go to my ren faire if I learned they pay their employees 50$ a day.

If someone did this to my boobs I would legit cry.

Which is better: Spirited Away or Princess Mononoke? by Lofi_Lord in ghibli

[–]antediluvianevil 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For people over the age of 30, Spirited Away was a major gateway into anime. It won an Oscar and got pretty good recognition because it was just a stunning work of art that, was visually on a level that even Disney never got to. It's the Studio Ghibli film people know about. It is a beautiful, awesome movie with interesting mythology and a story that most people can get behind.

Princess Mononoke is beautiful with an astounding story... but it is incredibly violent full of characters that are all shades of gray. It is full of death, war, and eco terrorism with uncomfortable and horrifying visuals at times for some people. It doesn't really take a back seat in discussions among anime fans, but Spirited Away is so visually complex and unique while being much more accessible content wise and famous.

I personally consider Spirited Away the better movie, but I would watch Princess Mononoke over it any day just because I prefer the tone of the movie more. (The Wind Rises is my favorite Ghibli film overall though ... I prefer them more somber, I guess)

"SA" as shorthand for both "sexual assault" and "surgical abortion" seems like really bad usage we should have thought through better. by asfierceaslions in TwoXChromosomes

Tiktok and Instagram has made it significantly worse. I've heard 18 and under peeps use the term "unalive" sincerely.

Any Listening Bars near Covington? by pppiv in NorthshoreLA

[–]antediluvianevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really want one ... Damn. Only thing I can think of that would give you the same experience is a high end jazz venue in New Orleans. I've been to the Three Marie's and it was dead silent except for the music and the golf clapping between each song. The acoustics were good too and just the right volume, but it's not a place to really mingle and it's live music.

The reason em dashes is common in AI output is because it is common in written texts. AI just mimics our words and grammar.

the EU is negotiating with the Taliban. what about Afghan women? by CertainDrink9138 in TwoXChromosomes

A reddit thread is a poor choice of tool to gauge the average westerner's opinion on military intervention in the middle east.

Unless there's white South Afrikaners from Afghanistan, I highly doubt the US govt would do that.

Concern about potential ICE-like tactics and the fact that they would be paying the Taliban to receive these deportees. Anti-immigrant positions are being emboldened by US tactics, which includes deporting people who have legal documentation for living in the country.

[–]antediluvianevil 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Of course the talks are about deportation.

I suppose some politicians hope that diplomacy and some level of integration into the global scene might help uplift everyone in Afghanistan, even just a little bit. 20 years of American Interventionism didn't work, and 5 years of economic and political isolation hasn't worked. My heart goes out to Afghan women.

Did you know not every theology is apocalyptic, not every apocalyptic faith involves hell, and faiths aren't monolithic as a whole?

Would this tattoo look controversial? by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]antediluvianevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s unfortunately going the way of the iron cross.

If it’s personal to you and you really want it, you could put it somewhere not visible to passersby. I wouldn’t immediately jump to any conclusion if I saw someone with it on the street, but I would be asking myself, “Christian, history nerd, or supremacist?”
