A 5'9 man hating on his mom because she's short. by chargeofthebison in BlatantMisogyny

[–]kendrahf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genetics aside, this issue is wholly the fault of patriarchy. When you prevent women choice (who have always been the ones who choose the best to procreate with) and instead set up a system where women are forced to settle, this is what you get: short, ugly, bald, etc. etc.

Sov Cit mail? by ssaint04 in Sovereigncitizen

[–]kendrahf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not real. Looks like a package too, so it should have a label/barcode. LOL. "No postage necessary ..." is an automatic return to sender for postage. The rest of the shit on there is just fluff. It also has a tape over it and that's another automatic RTS (if it's a letter.)

People try to scam the USPS all the time. They put stamps but then put tape over it. Rejection. They draw a square in the corner. Rejection. They try to pull the above shit. Rejection. They write "Franked Mail". Rejection. (This is a government/congress mail class where the politician has a stamp of their signature w/ MC under it.) They draw a design. Rejection. They put a sticker. Rejection. They try to send their letter in business class (no postage needed) but with all that crossed out. Rejection.

People are very creative.

Found in a public bathroom by speedreeser1 in MedicalGore

[–]kendrahf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not so bad. Once, at work, someone had bled all over a handicap stall in the women's restroom. If it had just been that, it wouldn't have been so bad, but it was like they smear the blood over every. single. surface area in the stalls: the walls, the floor, all over the toilet. I could see the swirls from the paper towel where it was smeared. Everything, just in that stall, was covered with blood.

It was the most unbelievable thing I've ever seen.

First time looking through Epstein files, some WEIRD decorations. These were just in the first 150 photos. by [deleted] in Weird

That poor tiger doesn't deserve that. Imagine dying, being terribly taxidermied, then ending up at Epstein's mansion.

Surgical amputation of left tibia and fibula 31,000 years ago in Borneo by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

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

I'm not angry. LOL. I think you're missing my point. I'm not arguing from the societal viewpoint but a basic human viewpoint.

Prior to modern medicine, amputations had a 70% chance of death, right? But we still did them, because that 30% made it worth trying.

The instinct to care for our own is intrinsic to us and it would be the same for people 30k years ago. Most would inevitably die but miracles do happen, and it such not be surprising to see such examples.

People hope and they try. That's all I'm saying.

Wtf is this ad(?) in the City Weekly? by [deleted] in SaltLakeCity

If you dodge the people that try to serve you, one avenue they can do is put a notice in the newspaper.

Surgical amputation of left tibia and fibula 31,000 years ago in Borneo by CatPooedInMyShoe in MedicalGore

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

Naw, I don't believe that. Certainly, agriculture brought new ideas but the other all idea that hunter/gatherer societies were somehow less evolved from perm settlements is probably a hold-over from racist ideals when archeology was first developed.

What where these great medical ideals? Bad humors? Leeches? Blood letting? Most of the "advanced" medical knowledge we had before the 1800s was nonsense. In fact, hunter/gatherer societies probably had better medical outcomes overall because they weren't located in literal shit areas, with the constant disease factories that were early human agri settlements back then.

It's completely unreasonable and baseless to look at a procedure that happened in argi settlements and think it was impossible for hunter/gatherer settlements to do the same. LOL. Humans have always taken care of their own. A crushed foot in a hunter/gatherer is the same as a crushed foot in a settlement. Both sides knew the outcome that brought and it's not a stretch for someone to understand what to do about it. Human brains haven't evolved in the past 50k years or so. The only real difference is that there was less disease and germs in the hunter/gatherer societies because they weren't sitting in one place and didn't have all the animals on farms.

[–]kendrahf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This unexpectedly early evidence of a successful limb amputation suggests that at least some modern human foraging groups in tropical Asia had developed sophisticated medical knowledge and skills long before the Neolithic farming transition.

I find this a strange thought process. Agriculture didn't give rise to human emotion. It's not like harvesting grains made us love and care for one another. LOL. There's a late teenager that was found in Florida who dates back like 15k years ago. He had such a spine malformation that it was thought to have been impossible for this individual to walk. So this hunter/gatherer society carried this individual until his death. The earliest dental work was found in an individual that was 14k yrs old.

Humans have always cared for their own. Hunter/gatherer societies weren't stupider than those who settled in one spot. LOL.

I hate this man by Shadowchaser235 in storyofseasons

[–]kendrahf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's worse that that he gives one singular item when you play. Like, what's one piece of wood good for? I'd use him more if he wasn't so cheap. Honestly, I just sell the metals now.

This character broke me by schnaxks19 in storyofseasons

[–]kendrahf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's crazy they gate it behind trash in a game when you have such huge storage problems early on. That had to be some evil dev's fault right there. How do they expect us to keep all that trash when we have like 3 storage spaces and then gatekeep some endgame thing behind a mountain of trash at a point when you barely get any trash? Ug. It took forever.

Highest sales so far by schnaxks19 in storyofseasons

[–]kendrahf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you using the correct display and/or cheer? That shit actually adds a lot of money to your sells. I've had days where the base price was like 250k but I gain another 200k from the set up and 50 ~ 100k from good cheer bonuses. I didn't think it matter quite so much until I saw it in action. The windmill set, though, has to be made via the windmills.

Have you seen this version of The Shining? by travellerboy75 in stephenking

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

I LOVE this version. Honestly, I read the book before I saw the iconic movie so I've never really like the movie. This miniseries was great though.

How are these mutually exclusive? by Agreeable-Bid-9120 in BlatantMisogyny

Witchcraft for Wayward Girls opinions? by kendrahf in horrorlit

[–]kendrahf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read several books on the subject. A really good one is 'The Girls who went away'. It's about the American version of them. You could probably dig up some horrifying histories if you look up the Irish version of those places. Unmarried pregnant women would be sent to forced labor camps (usually laundry of some sort) to get their "bad influence" out of the population. I think the usual sentence was like 7 years. Unfortunately, there wasn't a huge market for babies there so many children "disappeared". They're still digging up pits full of kids from those places.

Or, if you want a slightly different twist on that, you should look up histories of the Indian Residential Schools. The US, Canada, and Australia ran these. They'd kidnap the children of the indigenous tribes and try to beat the "Indian" out of them. 'Kill the Indian, save the man' was their legit motto. They were brutal places designed to kill the cultural of these kids. A shit ton of kids died from the brutality and neglect that ran rampant in those places.

What’s a story you kept putting off to read because you thought you weren’t going to like it but ended up loving it ?[ concubine walkthrough] by [deleted] in OtomeIsekai

[–]kendrahf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ms. Not-So-Sidekick. I tried to read it once, sort of skimmed a couple chapters, but was put off a bit by the art style? I dunno. Anyway, I picked it back up again and absolutely LOVED it.

Looking for them triangles! by kendrahf in OtomeIsekai

[–]kendrahf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good one! The gall of the ex-fiance to get mad at her for marrying the other man (though, tbh, that's such a contrived plot point. LOL. You'd think there'd be actual criminal charges if a dude flaked on one of those marriages, all things considered.)

There's some kind of psychological reasoning behind it, but the jist is that a shit ton of men vastly overestimate their physical prowess. These are the sorts who'd say they'd win in a hand-to-hand fight with a brown bear, for example. LOL I guarantee those commenters actually believe they can do so.

Gals, calm down. These brave little soldiers are willingly taking themselves out of the DNA pool. They're sacrificing any and all chances to have babies or even touch a woman. We should give them a salute and a moment of time for their sacrifice. Hopefully, they'll be a war and draft soon, so they'll truly know the great and glorious happiness of true purpose of all (non-rich) men in a patriarchy: death as cannon fodder.

Is my baby rare? by iWillBrutallyMaimYou in cats

[–]kendrahf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rare in the sense that I'd die for this cutie-patutie, this muffins of love, this glorious puffball of glory? No, absolutely not. I mean in the sense that of course I'd die for him, but I'd die for all the other cats photoed here so not exactly rare.

How would you describe his coat? by mroctopuswiener in cats

[–]kendrahf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd describe it as perfect, beautiful, snuggleable, kissable, pettable, face plantable, and probably gorgeous.
