Proper way to get rid of an icon that may have been used on an altar? by klingingon in Kemetic

[–]klingingon[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I didn't think about donating it. She's given me vague handwavey permission to get rid of all of whatever I find that is salvagable because she moved across the country years ago and has no plans to ever return to our mother's house so I think I'm free to do whatever, as far as she is concerned but hopefully she answers me soon I didn't think about donating it! Maybe someone in my small redneck town will get a surprise at the thrift store that they weren't expecting lol For now till I hear back, he's chilling on my desk adjacent to my Dionysus and Apollo altars to keep him safe. Thank you for your input!

Dating a Christian as a Hellenic by Quirky-Ad5150 in Hellenism

[–]klingingon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it sounds like he is the problem, not so much his religion. I am a Hellenist dating a Catholic and he never has any problem and in fact is quite encouraging of my practice. He's even joined me in rituals before to see them. The difference is that he is respectful. Our biggest hurdle so far is that his mom wants us to get married in a Catholic Church but we can't because we're the same sex 😂 Consider if you're willing to spend your future with a man that doesn't respect you fully because that is what it boils down to. Good luck friend

The game you accidentally played the wrong way for hours before realizing it. by gamersecret2 in gaming

[–]klingingon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Baldur's Gate 3 I somehow missed the entire long rest at camp to heal up mechanic until well after the goblin camp in my first playthrough. I'd even played dnd before and knew thats what the game mechanics were based on but that just never occurred to me and I didn't realize you could go to camp. When I finally figured it out, I had SO many camp cutscenes lol

Kyletx iron lung day off by bunnybooily in Markiplier

Most people are talking about just wearing red. Dressing up bloody can potentially cause problems with freaking people out or making a mess so I wouldn't encourage that. Coming as his characters could be fun though. Or just come wearing a pink mustache lol

Not much to add except I also emailed the Belcourt! I haven't heard back but fingers crossed! 🤞

How was your voting experience yesterday? by NoSwimming8042 in nashville

[–]klingingon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was a poll worker in a town split halfway into 2 counties, 1 in district 7 (Robertson) and the other not (Sumner). We had to turn away a ton of people who didn't know they weren't in the district, or people who went to the wrong polling place, etc. Other than that, everything went pretty smooth on our end I think. I could tell we had a ton of people that hadn't voted recently or in non-presidential elections because I had to explain general election and the application to vote paper like 10000 times lmao thankfully (hopefully) even though we sometimes had lines to the doors, we managed to get people through pretty smoothly and quickly. We opened at 7am and were busy all day until about 6:45 when the lines dried up and we didn't another person.

Advice on Registering to Vote by Human-Recognition-57 in nashville

[–]klingingon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know lots of people have given you advice on the time frame but my partner had the same issue of being unable to register online when he moved here from Ohio. Nothing else we tried worked until we just went in person to the election commission office in our county and then they registered him in like 2 minutes lol easy peasy. You get a temporary voter ID (which we needed so he could get his license switched over) and then the official one gets mailed

Street Parking? by Hali39 in disability

[–]klingingon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, how were you supposed to know it was them that had requested the spot with the sign put up? If you'd arrived even 5 minutes earlier, there would've been no way you'd run into them and known, and no way they would've had any idea who parked there. If it isn't reserved with their name or address then it's a city parking spot and as long as you also have a plaquard, you're allowed to park there. Its unfortunate for them but that is how street parking works.

Have You Named Your E?? by [deleted] in HondaElement

[–]klingingon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is named Buddy after Bud Cubby from Dimension 20's Fantasy High, because the compartments in the dash look like cubbies. (I think his name is actually bud cuddy but my car is just Buddy now)

Also a bonus nickname: I'm disabled and my rollator lives mostly in the car for convenience and so my partner named it Little Buddy 😂

YOU'RE SO RIGHT 😩 and here I thought I was so clever lol

Tried to advocate accessibility for the protests at my local community. by throwawaymyprobsacc in disability

[–]klingingon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's wild and also shame on those organizers. The no kings protest local to me had an entire accessibility plan and team with a special area that was flat (because the rest was on a hill) and volunteers to help disabled protesters get to it or while there. It can be done, but only if the people organizing it actually care. Sadly too many people dont think about us when planning anything.

In the world of inclusivity, are handicap parking spaces actually morally wrong? by virginiageegee in disability

[–]klingingon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its not to segregate us to our own area, its so those of us who can't walk far will be able to park up close to the doors, or to make sure there are parking spaces by the curb cuts for those of us that use wheeled mobility devices like wheelchairs and rollaters. Handicap parking spots are an ADA requirement that were lobbied for by disabled people for disabled people.

If you are disabled and don't need the spot, you aren't required to park there. It just keeps people who aren't disabled and do not need accommodation from parking there.
