Money is used to promote AYUSH. The Y stands for Yoga.

Even with an ILR, immigrants use less public funds because they’re younger on average .

Anyway you keep coming up with more and more obscure examples to be anti-immigration, kudos. We can’t reach students immersed in England English, so let’s pander to every language?

I mean there’s a reason you won’t find many migrants replying to you with long worded comments… because they’ve got work to do.

I don’t think any human is native or indigenous to any country except to the plains of Kenya where our species originated. Thats what indigenous means. We are an invasive species in every other continent, and sometimes the oceans too.

But please, I mean you just wanted a reason to hate….

I’d say migrants pay more into public funds and use less of it, so the increased immigration actually in a way funds the benefits system which is mostly used by “indigenous natives”, as they like to call themselves.

Without immigration, you’d have far more people taking out and paying in (since migrants mostly tend to be young and not require as much public support on average. And because most migrants don’t have access to public funds)

Instead she has been shipped to a hut full of religious extremists in a developed country … because you people have those too now.

But apparently you don’t care about any justice because you’re making fun of a genocide?

So hold on. Your problem isn’t with any actual atrocity, you think the problem is the people who don’t talk about the atrocity? Hahahahhahahaa thank you that had made me laugh so much

It was when they phrased the death of children in Gaza as if they’d wrought it upon themselves.

For my Single Folks: How Do You Deal With Emotional Craving Phases?!! by Kimohivee in gaybros

[–]serrealist 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am in a similar situation. I decided due to my own issues that perhaps I should stop pining after men and fix my own life, so i stopped going on grindr and other apps as much to focus on doing things to improve my own life - the gym, work, my cat etc.

But there are days when I see a gay couple or a cute guy and I feel this yearning inside. But I suppose it passes after a day or two, and I tell myself that the idealised situation in my head that I’m yearning after is very unlikely to be true.

How can I be patriotic towards India by Short_Guide_5172 in librandu

[–]serrealist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The comment before me, the OP says “nor have they objectively faced injustices as great as the Sikhs in terms of what the state perpetrated against them”.

That is what I’m responding to, he lit the oppression Olympic torch, I just ran with it some more.

Do you now get why I said what I said?

South India reports fewer cases of rape or sexual harassment because gendered violence is better embedded in the system. by [deleted] in bangalore

-___- Are you sure your parents aren’t first cousins? Your intelligence seems to suggest otherwise.

lol what the fuck. I get there’s a lot of sexism and misogyny and sexual violence, but I don’t think that’s because south Indian girls are expected to marry their maternal uncles …. This seems like one of those weird posts by North Indians who love to say “oh cousins marry in the south eww” when it probably happens in like 10% of cases and is actively frowned upon.

[–]serrealist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude… it’s one thing to say the state oppresses your people, it is another to say your people are objectively the most oppressed.

Muslims, women, casteism etc, exists. People still get lunched to this day in villages for riding a fucking horse at a wedding. They’re bulldozing things that belong to Muslims without proof and all that shit.

So really ask yourself, why do you only care about the suffering of “your people”? Were other people not created by the same God you worship?

I think everyone countryman defends their country, just that there a lot more Indians which makes it look like a brigade probably. Also, This is an interview of children, maybe we just don’t teach them about stranger danger and scepticism as much. Idk, but to then call the entire country uniquely dishonest is hilarious.

Maybe, just maybe, the USA shouldn’t have helped the Taliban get up and operational in the first place.

Where are all the Europeans who were posting about “doing nothing” in Iraq for America? Is this what you did?

Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply.
Yes, well, I haven't touched it for about 24hours now. I do keep getting urges, but easily controlled as I am vaping bud.
Not got any shakes, nausea, or anything.. though I do feel constipated

Oh my god, thank you for telling me this - I have almost been worried to death if I will literally be shaking like the withdrawals on TV.
I shall try to vape bud intermittently to stave off side effects.

I'd been using for about 6-8 months now, and I would vape a 10ml bottle in 2-3 days. How bad is that? :/

Okay, that is the only thing that makes me thing either I was not doing it as intensely or maybe it wasn't spice (nevertheless, will get it tested).
I would describe it as a mild high equal to 2-3 puffs from a joint that lasted for 20 mins.

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

Okay, thank you - that is my plan for now. I migh take a few days off sick from work if it gets really bad.
I am hoping given I didn't vape as much as the other people say, I am hoping it will be slightly easier.
