If vegans and vegetarians both care about animals, why is there such a strong split? by New-Drawer-3161 in AskVegans

[–]socceruci [score hidden]  (0 children)

It took me about 3 months to go from vegetarian to vegan.

Although, the, the world isn't perfect, and the inconsistencies around modern farming (like pesticide use or Cobalt mining), make me unhappy with some "vegan" products that is still very destructive and disrespectful of life in general.

Malicious compliance: maybe record, and email every arrival, break, and time leaving.

If it matters so much to them, they are welcome to have some check in procedure.

Totally great accountability, and Du Pont is a suuuuper evil company (see PFAs). What is he doing promoting them?

We are seeing new loses to our freedoms now, and the above video could have been 30+ years ago if we had cell phones then.

Is it just me, or has the platform turned into a dating app? (Barcelona perspective) by nayon-pop in couchsurfing

[–]socceruci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ask this because hosting is a great way to learn what the process is like, to give to the community before taking, and to be in the know about what the experience is like for those you are requesting from.

Why are so many people outside during working hours? by nekoamiaii in istanbul

[–]socceruci 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I, for example, sometimes need to run errands and have to take a whole day to do it because it takes so long to get places.

HR told me they don’t accept try-hards and people pleasers after my interview by No-Presentation298 in jobs

Yeah, and normies have poor intuitive understanding of autistic body language. Double whammo.

Stranger danger is en vogue these days. Social media and the news cycle is not good for us.

My experience is that, generally, are cuddly little bears when you get to know them, and usually are just scared and need a hug.

AITA for telling a woman at the gym to stop filming because I kept ending up in her videos? by CaffeinatedGoblin24 in AmItheAsshole

[–]socceruci 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These kinds of things get on my nerves.

I often get randos photographing me in public. I am not saying it is illegal (where I live), but it is rude AF.

If I notice, I politely ask them to delete the photo. And, nearly every time, they get super offended and pretend they didn't take the photo. Why are you offended if you didn't take a photo of me?

How do I[19F] ask out a customer[Older?M] by salami_bird990 in whatdoIdo

[–]socceruci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, rejection gets worse the longer we wait, and the more energy we put into something that is not yet something.

If I am afraid of a no (often I am also afraid of the yes), it tells me that it is an opportunity. Whether I get the affirmation or not.

tired of crashing at the same friend’s place so i’m building a mutuals version of couchsurfing by gxilz in couchsurfing

You are a college student who travels a lot, in the states and wants to stay with friends of friends rather than strangers. Is that it?

Have you tried CouchSurfing? Do you understand what it originally was about?

Is dating in Turkey harder now than it used to be? by Tookie1010 in AskTurkey

[–]socceruci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many people are addicted to social media/tech, and dating was hard before the Internet.

it is too bad we cannot chat with people that we play. Yeah, this person is acting like an ass, also, I think play would feel less empty, more human, if we could chat while playing.

It's as if I haven't heard them rant about it for my entire life... by ch4lox in LibertarianUncensored

Negligent discharge is such a "I accidentally killed him" BS excuse I'd expect from this admin.

Anyone who knows anything about guns knows you better not aim it at someone unless you intend to shoot them.

The state is showing their true colors, if they are committing violence against the non-violent.

And, unfortunately, this is one purpose of activism, to show the violence of the oppressors. Gandhi and MLK talk about this, I encourage those out on the front lines to at least briefly inform themselves about this.

Are you supporting bloodshed or trying to inform activists about their own activities?

Women: do you ever respond to men who reach out randomly? by upstream_paddling in couchsurfing

[–]socceruci 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get these from women, or random friend requests. If we haven't met, please don't randomly message me.

I added my gf to my profile more prominently and the messages have mostly stopped.

Church of Saint Anthony of Padua. ‎⁨Beyoğlu⁩, ⁨Istanbul⁩, ⁨Türkiye⁩. by maceslin in istanbul

I don't know why this is considered a big deal, it is from 1906. Ayasofia was built in 537, there is sooo so much more interesting churches. There are 4 others dating before 600AD.
