@Wider_Ape0416 Actually the point of Christianity is God. Its very well to say that you aren't really loving God if you don't do what He tells us to do, but if Christ isn't the point of your faith, you are just a utilitarian materialist.

THE WHOLE POINT OF BEING A CHRISTIAN IS TO LOVE THE PEOPLE AROUND YOU AND TAKE CARE OF THE LESS WELL OFF OR LESS FORTUNATE!!! NOT USE IT AS A WEAPON TO BE HATEFUL!!!

@FarmsGwendolyn @whitesundesert Are you sexist because you are stupid or does your stupidity spring from your sexism?
English
@whitesundesert So you dug drains once, what else did you do?
And by your logic, only a months worth of laundry needs doing.
So take the money you saved on digging yourself and hire a cleaner

The feminists who complain men don’t do enough around the house seem to have absolutely no idea what men do around the house.

@JupiterKunt @TheStatsRobot California was already gerrymandered to hell, they just have a bunch of apparatchiks rubber stamp it.
English
@TheStatsRobot Blue states, to feel good, made gerrymandering illegal in their states many years ago
Never requiring red states to do the same
So blue states are perpetually screwed now
Even California and Virginia will have to go BACK to the voters and ask for it AGAIN in 2030
English
Wait. So California and Virginia has weeks of legislative crap, A WHOLE GOD DAMN ELECTION EACH, and Floridian Authoritarians just introduce and make law a new gerrymander explicitly against their constitution in a week?

@Avaliab1 @MikeyNohMore Basically life is unfair and being bitter ultimately hurts you more than the people who hurt you. She isn’t *wrong* and her family *should* treat her better, but at this point she needs to make peace with it for her own sake.

@MikeyNohMore In what universe was Lin in the wrong, unless I'm misremembering anything

Korra fans love to do the "She would be less hated if she was male," but most of Korra's female cast would be DESPISED if they were dudes, especially Su.

@and_catch_fire @ServusDeiVivi You seem remarkably ignorant, both of science in particular and epistemology generally. All you produced was goal post moving and superstition.

Dawkins: This robot is conscious because it sounds conscious
Also Dawkins: If the stars in the sky spelled out "there is a God" I would just think I'm hallucinating or have gone mad
The man will believe in scientific "miracles", but not ACTUAL miracles.

@motsdemaelys Every artist is problematic, if they weren't problematic they would be an accountant.

honestly i'm this close to quitting reading for good. every single author i actually love turns out to be problematic or worse. i'm so tired of finding out after i already got attached. feels like i can't enjoy anything anymore without a background check first

@UnboundConman @barettorein I spent enough time in the US to know that maybe 3y of your supermarkets do actually sell 2-3 different types of actual bread, and to be fair they are edible, but overall your Stores only have toast.
English
I feel like after this whole bread debacle, we never have to take a German's opinion seriously ever again.

@PwnShop69 @coaiecrete Yes, that is toast. Why do Amerilards get so mad when we point out that toast isn't bread? lol

@Robotbeat Someone will do it, but make it Corporate Memphis, and ruin the meme

I feel like this meme is powerful enough to instantiate itself in the real world.

There's a common misconception that Brutalist buildings were unpainted, but thanks to microscopic analysis of the exteriors we can now recreate what they looked like in their prime.

@SPQR_Austin @Cernovich Having a bunch of young incompetents has made California much worse. Gerontocracy produced better results than the rule by staffers California had now.
English
@Cernovich The one place I’ve seen term limits do well is the California State Legislature, which despite its broad incompetence is resistant to gerontocracy and has a bunch of young members
Maybe 3 term max for governors, we don’t want governors for life because it facilitates corruption

@prutraliah @kiyodia @Shadechu_N Honey, if you don't know what words mean, you shouldn't keep using them. Why don't you go pick up a book and stop acting like an idiot online?

i rlly wish these characters had been handled w more tact & empathy with more tact bc i hate how their stories ended

@prutraliah @kiyodia @Shadechu_N You can lie all you want but we know you are a bad, and apparently very dumb person
English
@actium10811 @kiyodia @Shadechu_N gurl what are u even talking about?? first of all i didnt even say all that, and what is this rant ur going on about it seems to me like ur projecting babes stop bothering me i truly don't care bye
English
@prutraliah @kiyodia @Shadechu_N "You cant be a villain if you have a valid reason to be angry" is actually a deeply ignorant and morally repugnant position to take. Your "different opinion" is bad. Its really bad. Matches with the language of abusers bad. Specifically used to justify oppression bad.
English
@actium10811 @kiyodia @Shadechu_N oh here we go blowing things out of proportion immediately running to accuse others of being bad just cos yall cant accept different opinions.. never said it was ok what they did, all i said they should not be treated like villains cos there was valid reason behind their rage

@Dizzle1444 @kiyodia You realise you are the exact same class of person as those villagers.

@prutraliah @kiyodia @Shadechu_N Iroh was not.
There was grace given to both characters.
Victims can do evil things. If you don’t understand that, it’s because you are a bad person.
English
@kiyodia @Shadechu_N THISSS!!! cos im tired of seeing victims of warcrimes be villainize, like we have iroh who was literally complicit in a genocide and only changed after he was a grown ass man, and everyone forgave him but no grace for traumatized victims... okey i see what the creators are 😒

@SLCPaladin @Manhattva That actually is the defining feature of gerrymandering.

@Manhattva You know this isn’t true. How a map “looks” has no bearing on whether it has been gerrymandered.

@GafieldStan @UrbaneUrban Even without the fact that he was never remotely Nazi like, "Reformed Nazi becomes respected figure in Allied nation" happened a lot.

“iroh is a war criminal” is a good example of how when you recontextualize a kids’ show into a ruthlessly adult framework a lot of stuff falls apart in a way that’s not really satisfying for anyone

@AidanRC286280 @AtheistTakes @SperitB Need to point out that your suggestion is actually much more abusive.
And the actual circumstance solved the problem, and not correcting the issue is abusive.
The worst abuse is poor parenting.

@lispectorcapitu @aangdaily It would be like trying to recreate England by interviewing Elizabeth I, there’s a lot to be gained, but ultimately you are talking to an atypical, single perspective from centuries ago.

This is probably the saddest panel in the ATLA comics. The amount of knowledge and culture that was lost forever simply because Aang hadn’t been taught them yet is so devastating
