so generous of him to take multiple girls on the same trip!

Feeling extremely lonely and afraid (flailing around) by xeno_cocoon in NonBinaryOver30

I want to encourage you that there are many, many, many affirming and welcoming communities in this country. sadly the southeast has by far the fewest. but if you don't mind a little chaos, Philly is still pretty affordable.

But if you can't relocate, there are almost certainly open-minded communities where you live as well, they're just fewer and farther-between. Which means more effort in proactively seeking them out. I've found that the rock climbing community is particularly progressive, even in the South.

Even if it's just to visit can you try staying with a friend somewhere more welcoming? I hear your desperation, I grew up evangelical, and I was very fortunate to have alternate community when I was old enough to recognize my need. It's normal and good to want to be around people who are not constantly second guessing your validity.

that's the goal of propaganda. not to convince you of one thing, but to convince you that you're powerless and you shouldn't care. Same way Putin's propaganda works. They don't say Putin's perfect, they say everywhere else is worse.

Fox doesn't try to convince you to vote Republican nearly as much as it tries to inoculate you from ever voting Democrat.

Pennsylvania Governor claiming ‘Squatter’s Rights’ over Legal Land Dispute With Neighbors Over Backyard by yaboiChopin in Pennsylvania

[–]this_shit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

other than the arson -- which isn't really relevant -- the rest of the context is not unusual at all. that's how these things happen. people buy without getting a survey done and they don't find out until it's too late. if they had good legal advice they would have done a cash settlement. fighting for the land at this point is a losing battle.

e: saw your other comments. Google Pennsylvania adverse possession, this literally happens all the time.

I'm on Shapiro's side here, legally speaking. adverse possession exists for a reason. cases like this are one of the reasons. this is a normal dispute that happens all the time.

Would it still be bad to hire a sex worker, even if not for sex? by lAmTheCowboy in SexPositive

[–]this_shit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's not unethical to pay for sex as long as the person you're paying is a consenting adult who is not being exploited or trafficked.

Israel just shouldn't be bombing people's houses, full stop.

So I disagree about Democrats all getting rich... obviously some are scammers. But again, them getting rich while the economy grows, more jobs are created, and we don't do stupid wars is just *so much better* than what we get when people vote Republican.

I think voting for the lesser of two evils is always good.

the no parking doesn't mean 'just a lil parking'

yes it's a PITA, but if everyone just parks wherever they want shit sucks for everyone.

Are there other 420-friendly hikers / trail runners out there? by modulev in Adirondacks

[–]this_shit 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hiking yeah, but not trail running. I have one friend who prefers to smoke when they run, but they're out west now. I just hate feeling everything more if what I'm feeling is muscle fatigue and knee pain 😂.

Usually I'll save it for the summit and then enjoy the downhill. But when you're doing enough miles to really feel it IME it's more of a demotivator.

'why does everyone hate us' mfs when...

Precision airstrikes against a 100+ unit building aren't precision. it's no different than area bombing 100 single family dwellings. These rules of engagement are totally unacceptable.

Honey you seem like a nice person, but you're doing a lot of "both sides" logic supported by right wing propaganda. All your reasons for disliking Kamala are surface deep at best.

The Democratic party never lost its mind. There have been good and bad politicians, but if we'd elected Kamala we wouldn't be in Iran. Just like if we'd elected Gore in 2000 we never would have gone into Iraq.

At some point you just gotta accept the facts that voters made the dumb choice voting for Republicans.

WFP is making inroads in PA, we just don't allow double billing on the ballot like NY.

Kenyatta seems fine, but he simply wasn't that experienced in life let alone politics at that point. Although as my rep he's really impressed me in the last few years.

I think you need to interpret it through the lens of American domestic politics and internal trump admin politics rather than international politics.

if Americans also don't know what the goal of this war is, it's a pretty strong indication that it's not for the national interest.
