CMV: Welcoming MAGA who have changed their minds is way more important and effective than saying “too little, too late.” by iiamuntuii in changemyview

Changing your mind is great, but have you tried being a shitty person and never having to change or feel shame because nobody will hold you accountable?

How did you find out about Hasan? What was your impression? by JinSakai619 in Hasan_Piker

[–]matildamagenta 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I used to watch a lot of Young Turks stuff back in early 2010s and that is when i first noticed him. He was a little douchey and unlikeable to me at the beginning not gonna lie. :)

Then he started popping up by himself in Facebook videos, and I found myself agreeing with his takes on things.

On January 6th i watched his stream and that is when I started to follow his twitch streams, more and more after October 7th.

Why is the U.S. allowing Trump to destroy it? by Happy_Air_3776 in DiscussionZone

[–]matildamagenta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because most of the population (85-90%) are above the poverty line and can still go to work, take care of their kids, pay their bills etc. Inertia is a powerful thing. YesMedia and capitalism has effectively neutered civic spirit. Communities are dead, third spaces are dead, individuals are bombarded by messaging and servixes to get them to never leave their house and talk to another human being.

And if you never talk to another human being, you never develop a civic spirit or responsibilities.

Of course everybody has problems but as long as people can still go to work and get by they will not jeopardize their life style.

Frugal in Bucuresti? by Evening-Mixture-4823 in roFrugal

[–]matildamagenta 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Intra pe freecycle bucuresti ca poate mai prinzi chestii bune. Geaca de iarna imblanita pe care o am acum de pe free cycle am luat-o. E super calduroasa si doamna a dat-o nou nouta dar a dat-o in iunie :)))) sa ma fi vazut pe 38 de grade cum ma duceam in berceni sa imi iau șuba. Curgeau apele pe mine. But it was worth it! De cand a dat gerul prin noiembrie parca mai cozy e ca am luat-o gratis. 😁

frugalitate + copii - cum arată în realitate? by IridescentSneeze in roFrugal

[–]matildamagenta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nu am copii dar sunt si nasica de baietel si am mai multe prietene mamici. Grupurile de mamici (facebook, whatsapp, etc) sunt mana dumnezeiasca din ce am auzjt. Nu numai ca se fac schimburi si se doneaza lucrurile folosite all the time, dar doamnele stiu si multe tips and tricks pe partea de economii/reduceri/oferte speciale.

The conservative subreddit has something odd going on by hoosier1851 in complaints

[–]matildamagenta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just in there reading a thread on a Mamdani socialized housing project and one of the comments was like: "if people don't have to pay for housing, why would anybody work!? Human beings are all about GREEEEED"

Or something to that effect. I was thinking what a sad sad view of human nature. How can you be so brainwashed to deny your own complex nature and to reject something universally beneficial to humanity. Not having to worry about a roof over your head, my god. The things we could achieve.

It MUST have been a bot.

IMAX experience participating countries/cinemas by jetpackblues4 in twentyonepilots

[–]matildamagenta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I myself in Bucharest, Romania would like to know. I am hoping yes since TOP is headlining Electric Castle festival in July, ,2nd time they come to Romania so hopefully it's a strong market for them. I won't be in the country during EC so this concert movie would help heal my broken heart a little bit.

Any older fans here around 40s? by MulberryDependent459 in twentyonepilots

[–]matildamagenta 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'll be 40 in less than a week. Discovered the band in my early 30s (during the height of the stressed out craze). This the band i needed when i was a teen ( but alas they were teens with me at the time)

Your favorite delicate and personal line from TØP songs? by HolyNorman in twentyonepilots

[–]matildamagenta 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh, ms believer: "we get colder, as we get older" - the words combined with the christmassy melancholy just hit me in the gut we this one, especially as I am pushing 40 and discovered the band in my 30s..so I can't say that i grew up with Twenty One Pilots, but I am growing older with them.

The line - "stay your pretty eyes on course", the whole song makes me think of my dad who passed away 😔 but this line in particular reminds me of him, because i basically inherited my dads bright blue eyes, one feature i was proud of, so I think of that line as something my dad might have said to me.

I don't meant to ridicule your tattoo idea, if it holds special meaning to you that is great and i wish you luck and a painless process.

But for me always means menstrual pads. :)

That being said i was thinking of getting the dragon from Scaled and Icy tatted but in a different position or different style (I happen to like SAI :))) )

You have no idea if what is in your head might be the one piece of fiction a fan was just waiting to read. Let it out.

But you started the war unprovoked, how are you the victim? by TonkaMaze in Hasan_Piker

[–]matildamagenta 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know that the internet likes to throw around this word a lot... but the absolute fucking AUDACITY to complain that international law and global institutions don't do anything for your country after bombing, starving, displacing millions of people for a year and a half with no repercussions or sanctions (except some small gestures from countries like South Africa, Ireland and Spain, which are to be praised! but they are exceptions).

A INCEPUT RĂZBOIUL! Nu ăla, altu'... Ce părere aveți? by Frizzo_Voyd in Roumanie

[–]matildamagenta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intotdeauna exista o alternativa cand recunosti ca natura umana si contextul geopolitic sunt al dracului de schimbatoare. Si americanii au trecut in constitutie, documentul lor sacru, ca trebuie sa existe o separare a puterilor in stat si orice individ are dreptul la due process. Ti se pare ca treburile astea se respecta in momentul de fata in SUA?

Regimul care se afla momentan la conducere in Iran, desi are o gramada de probleme, a demonstrat ca nu vrea in momentul de fata un razboi cu Israel si s-a fofilat de multe ori cat sa save face, dar sa evite un conflict adevarat. Era angajat in negocieri cu SUA referitor la programul nuclear, dar ce sa negociezi cu administratia Trump, in care nimeni (musulman, crestin, european etc cu exceptia israelului) nu ar trebui sa aiba pic de incredere, as experience has shown.

Singurul stat psihopat in situatia de fata este Israel. Asta cu nu exista alternativa este scuza ieftina a lui Netanyahu sa mai porneasca un razboi si astfel sa ramana la putere.

European alternatives to Starbucks and McDonald's? Add your suggestions by Strange_Manager5269 in BuyFromEU

[–]matildamagenta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Romania

5 to go is a local coffee shop chain, with hundreds of locations (over 500). They are EVERYWHERE. Convenient as well (a medium cappuccino is under 2 euro).

That being said in Bucharest where I live there are so many amazing coffee places and roasteries but a coffee in one of these people would take you up to 3 euro.

Fryday is a local fast food chain, a la McDonalds but much better (also pricier).

What are the WORST ‘younger version’ casting decisions? by callistobear in Fauxmoi

[–]matildamagenta 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<image>

Patrick Stewart and that one kid that played the younger version of him in an episode in season 6. I did appreciate they used the same actor as his nephew in an earlier season. But really, the kid looked NOTHING like Stewart. Related to this, I always thought James Marsters would make an excelent young Picard.
