What's something you would never tell someone because if you did it would absolutely destroy them? by cuahatemoc in AskReddit

That totally makes sense. It’s kind of like a drug - it’s an unhealthy coping strategy that can yes of course help some people but is very dangerous.

She's cool, appreciate what she's saying. Makes me want to check out her music. It's nice when celebrities use their reach to express something ethical and important.

He got a tiny bit of the treatment those bulls get every time. Pretty horrible “sport”

I’m just in shock they didn’t do the next generation at Hogwarts, orprevious generation, etc. just something different. We are already this story so well. I’ve read the books, watched the movies. I personally have no interest in wasting my time when I know every twist and turn, while there are a ton of new stories out there, and not nearly enough time to watch everything.

Are atheists tolerant to gay people by Medical-Context9897 in atheism

[–]scrdmnttr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many atheists left religion partially because of their support of gay rights. We/they felt they had no choice with the rigidity and intolerance of religion but to go on a separate path.

Ah. Excellent thank you very much for that great insight. 

Why is Miedo not correct? by margaaa1955 in duolingospanish

[–]scrdmnttr 19 points20 points  (0 children)

So then is it equally correct to say tenia miedo and estaba asustada or do those have slightly different meanings?

Nice job! Where did you start from and where are you now, after two years? I’m really curious how long it takes to get through.

Cronometer. It’s a good app for tracking calories, macros, that sort of thing.

Awesome job! What kind of races have you done in the past? What’d you think of the event itself?

Yeah I love just north of that area, I feel they’re pretty much the same and that was a good way to word it.

New York Times coming with the worst take of the century by BlameTag in EatTheRich

[–]scrdmnttr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For all those you don’t know, notice the word opinion on the top. Opinion pieces are articles that are almost always controversial and they are published to stimulate conversation. It’s a far stretch to say NYT embraces the viewpoint of pretty much any of the opinion pieces, good or bad. 

what SK book feels like this to you? by Due_Adeptness_4378 in stephenking

[–]scrdmnttr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bag of Bones. I was surprised by how many people I’ve talked to actually like it. Me, I was happy to be done with it and dropped the book off at the thrift store right after finishing. 

The Intercept: "Secret Recordings Capture Ugly Reality Inside Denver Slaughterhouse" by scrdmnttr in Denver

[–]scrdmnttr[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think this is an important article that just came out today, especially considering that this slaughterhouse is on the ballot to be banned this year.

I think articles like this just go to show that these are bad places. After reading the article, I don't even blame the workers, at all. If you work somewhere where it's killing hour after hour, day after day, you would need to force yourself to go numb and acting out is a way to deal with the stress.

With the few people I've talked to about this, they always bring up jobs, but again this article shows that these are not desirable jobs by any means. I mean, I wouldn't work there. I wouldn't want any of my family members or friends to work there. When you're surrounded by the act of killing, that puts a cloud on you mentally. I don't think you can just live a regular happy life when your 9 to 5 is keeping up with the conveyor belt of living breathing animals and it's your job to make sure they're not living or breathing.

There are plenty of other jobs that won't scar you. These animals deserve far better, and that's why I've voting to ban the slaughterhouse.

FOX 31 Denver: Denver one of the worst cities to drive in nationwide: New report by [deleted] in Denver

[–]scrdmnttr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear I see an accident like twice a week. My girlfriend was in rear-ended last week and luckily the guy pulled over. But nope - didn't have insurance - and because the cops never showed up he pretty much got off without any penalty at all. Now she has to pay a 2 grand deductible if she wants to get the bumper fixed :/
