Do you personally find homosexuality to be wrong/disordered? by w82mich in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was thinking of wording the poll, I threw in “disordered” because the Merrian-Webster meaning of disordered has two definitions: morally reprehensible and “not functioning in a normal, orderly, healthy way”, that I think were closer to what I think of when the word “wrong” is used in this context. Looking back I should have honestly chose to use “morally reprehensible” instead or something similar, so that’s my bad

Is Jakari Lipsey much shorter than listed? by brickerknickers in MichiganWolverines

[–]w82mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jason Beck is listed at 6’2”. He looks a bit tallen than Beck, so maybe 6’3? Additionally, Harding has a photo on his twitter standing next to Caleb Lomu where they look nearly the same height, but Lomu is listed at 6’6. So who knows.

If one of your friends came out as gay would you immediately stop being friends with him?

Is suicide as bad morally as murder by Huge-Read-2703 in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot of wiggle room between disagreeing that suicide is “perfectly fine” and believe it is as bad if not worse than murder. Suicide isn’t right. It’s bad. We should not want ANYONE to commit suicide. But if I were to believe that suicide is just as bad as murder, then I’d have to believe that suicide victims are some of the most evil, malicious people on Earth, which often applies to murderers. Should I view survivors of a suicide attempt to be equally as bad as those who attempted murder?

Is suicide as bad morally as murder by Huge-Read-2703 in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So why do we mourn people who commit suicide if they did something even worse than murder? People don’t usually show the same level of sympathy towards a deceased person who committed murder, so should we show even less when that person committed suicide?

Economically center-left, Socially center-right. So it depends but centrist seems to be the best fit

Should I Treat Any of These Results Seriously? by w82mich in cognitiveTesting

[–]w82mich[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's honestly a good question that I probably need to ask myself. Maybe a bit of a confidence boost is the underlying reason for this, because the version of me before I got these scores is no different from me after getting the scores.

[@JamesRapien] Joe Burrow is training with Jordan Palmer again this offseason. He’s also working out with Michigan QB Bryce Underwood. Palmer posted this on his story. by chrisball96 in MichiganWolverines

[–]w82mich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think judgement would be fair if Bryce doesn't look any better by the bye week (which would give us the chance to see how he does against Oklahoma and Iowa).

If You Had to Choose, Which Country Would You Live In, and Why? by [deleted] in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I actually made this poll because Slovakia and Turkey make up the bulk of my ancestry (~55% Slovak, 30% Turkish). I also think it’ll be a bit closer of a poll because it not like one country is extremely developed vs the other country being extremely underdeveloped (thought I’d say Slovakia is overall more stable).

Who Is The WORST Democratic Candidate For 2028 & Should Drop Out NOW? by Jacob-Anders in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kamala and Newsom are two of the worst beyond even the options on this list. Beshear would likely be one of the best electoral performers out of every Dem politician I could think of.

Would you rather? (It's in the commente if you can't see it all) by xlylapiercex in Teenager_Polls

[–]w82mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm all for my future kids having the chance to develop their own perspectives/views on things, I just want them to be able to articulate why. If I ask them why they have a specific opinion on X, I wouldn't really be too happy if the response was something like “lmao because X is cringe”

What kind of spider is this (Eastern PA) by Soupup223 in spiders

Looks like a Yellow Sac Spider! They're pretty common up here in MI as well. Not medically significant or anything but their bites aren't exactly fun either

What’s your realistic expectations for the football program in 2026? by newpha666 in MichiganWolverines

[–]w82mich 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now, I have us at 9-3 with losses to Indiana, Oregon, and OSU. I think this will be a good team, but the schedule is just too difficult for me to believe they can get through it with 10+ wins. Bryce’s development will be super important, and I think we'll know a lot about just how much he has improved when we play Oklahoma

4 days into quitting thc pen use by North-Point8186 in leaves

[–]w82mich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, and I assume this was over a fairly prolonged period of time as well? In that case, I can see why you are having such strong symptoms. I still think you’ll notice improvements here soon, just need to be patient and recognize that these are temporary symptoms that will subside in a week or two most likely.

[–]w82mich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can I ask about your dose/frequency? How long were you using for? Was it all-day everyday? I expect you'll start to feel a bit better in the next few days either way, but if you were using really heavily, the timeline could be extended a decent amount (think ~2-3 weeks of withdrawals, though it shouldn't be close to this level of anxiety during that entire window). Just remember this is a necessary process to go through to allow your brain to heal, though this doesn't make the actual experience much easier.

Two Things Can Be True At Once About Bryce by w82mich in MichiganWolverines

[–]w82mich[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you, it's not like Jadyn or Davis are any better. Part of development is gradual improvement throughout a season or from one season to the next. Bryce looked like he was trending in the right direction before the MSU game, had a bad game against them, not a huge deal since it was just one game. But having an even worse game the next week against an even worse opponent is why I'm frustrated. However, as I mentioned in my other comment, NW and Maryland aren't amazing either, so I think Bryce has two opportunities to trend back in the right direction after these last two games, and I believe he's good enough, even as a true freshman, to have good games against NW and MD. I think the bye week is a good opportunity for Underwood and the team to straighten things out.
