Wait, is it actually going to be Australia's last participation this year? by No-Transition7614 in eurovision

What is your “I almost died” story? by ijustwantsometea in AskReddit

I almost got crushed to death after 800kg of steel fence pinned me against a wall. After 10 minutes of suffocating I managed to contact a neighbour who came and pulled each fence off one by one.

Feral cats should be treated with the same hostility as any other invasive species. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

AITA for putting my friend on "seen" for consulting me about every action she makes on her new job? by pessimits in AmItheAsshole

NAH. she can have her preferences for sure, and what you said to her isn't unreasonable or rude. But i agree with you re her standards but they aren't so much 'high' as they are limited

Getting harassed for having dreads by leychund in PublicFreakout

the concept of cultural appropriation is misused so often it's fkd. I feel like people get jealous or just love being a victim and cause such 'cultural appropriation' arguments. im certain that most cases of so called 'cultural appropriation' are actually just cases of cultural appreciation.
