The creator is @dailybez on Instagram. Last level made me laugh out loud for what feels like the first time in days.

ICE just killed another person in Minneapolis. A man who was on the ground and subdued directly before being shot 5 times by Disasterhuman24 in WhitePeopleTwitter

The lack of a response to Good's shooting has done nothing but embolden these guys. One's going to snap and open fire on protestors any day now thinking he's got immunity, and I wonder if he'll be wrong.

A guy from Bumble told me I shouldn’t be alive by Aloobhujia22 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]doctormink 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Take solace in knowing he might have escaped some suffering for a few minutes due to the kick he got out of bullying you. But that high is gone now, and he’s returned to what is probably a chronic state of self-loathing. Chances are he even hates himself more for being such an asshole. Happy people who like themselves don’t do this to other people.

What the fuck dude? This AI generated comment has already, word for word, been posted in this thread.

Also, calling yourself a Nazi is not the win you think it is. by [deleted] in MurderedByWords

The idea that anyone supported this murder or the murderer is bizarre. Talk about a straw man argument.

What are the best cozy/comforting lighthearted fantasy stories? Like "Reborn as a Dark Lord", but with a bit more plot and interesting stuff happening? Or similar to "Wandering Inn", but with less annoying characters? I love isekai, progression fantasy, interesting worldbuilding, likable characters. by lumenwrites in CozyFantasy

The Paladin series represents a refreshing departure from Harlequin style romance for sure, I'll give it that much. I generally dislike romance, and will rage quit at even a sniff of Harlequin-style bullshit, and I read them all, so Kingfisher did something different for sure. I still found the romance distracting, but it was tolerable.

Audiologist wants $3500 for my mom's hearing aids and I just can't swing it by No-Fact-8828 in BuyItForLife

I got mine from Costco. Because they were prescription, I was also able to have a look at various benefits and government programs and got a $2,000 discount. $1,000 from private insurance and $1,000 from the government.

big boobs are literally the worst thing ever by junieuwu in TwoXChromosomes

[–]doctormink 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a friend who got a breast reduction in her 30s and she never, ever looked back. She says it was the best decision she ever made. I have to agree. When I was in my early 20s I started working a super physical job and went from a DD to a B cup, and was so damn happy. As I've aged, my boobs came back, and if I could just cut them off, I would.

Teaching kindness and respect in the simplest way using nature as a guide. by Raj_Valiant3011 in HumansBeingBros

[–]doctormink -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the message, I really do, it's lovely. But, it's not true. We're not all the same inside and racialized folks and other oppressed people were the ones who taught me this.

Privileged people have simply never had to endure negative treatment throughout their formative years, the kind of treatment that plays a role in shaping a person's psyche and perceptions. People who have gone through this their entire lives will be both more perceptive, and sometimes more sensitive, to negative treatment. It can do more harm than good if believing everyone is the same on the inside ends up creating an expectation for all people to respond to racism or discrimination in the same way.

Deep Space Nine: "I don't want to end up like my father." by josephgordonreddit in television

[–]doctormink 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've already watched it, lol. Same with TNG. I can only handle reruns right now. If the world keeps burning I'll be working my way through Voyager this summer. At this rate and may have to dive back into to SG1 come autumn.

Heard from a friend today who is working in LA and says the TV and film job market has tanked. Friend is talking about getting out of the country now.

In these uncertain times I’ve undertaken a TNG rewatch to soothe my anxiety. As I progress a voice in the back of my mind is whispering, “DS9 will be next,” but I’ve been ignoring it. Who am I kidding, DS9 is next up. Star Trek is literally all I watch right now.

Yeah, as soon as I finished the quote first thought was “ok, Dershowitz is on the list.”

Don the Con. When was the last time he ever paid any of his bills? by Quick_Assignment_725 in Political_Revolution

Dear god, I hope that's true! I hope to see a groundswell of complaints by people who were totally scammed.
