"My life is very meaningless and aimless but I have the human desire to take stands and share my mind but I've never engaged with any topic deeply or seriously enough for it so I'm gonna talk about pineapple burgers."
What's the debate? Whether it tastes nice or not? Seeing the popularity of both pineapple pizza and pineapple/cheese and honey burgers (at least in Europe), I guess it's tasty enough for a bunch of people.
I swear, some people will take a stand for anything besides important things, lol. God? Morals? Imperialism? Nah, I'm gonna spend my limited time and even more limited brainpower on cuisine debates... 🙄🤷
I've tracked my now wife's periods for about 6 years now because we would fight once a month for years and I eventually started noticing a pattern, lol. Now, at least we know some days in advance so when she starts getting needlessly cranky I check or she asks me to check and it does make it easier to know you/your wife is not crazy for no reason, it's the hormones!
Women might feel the need to "compensate" for their faces and overall bodies but there's no dick equivalent. A flat chested cutie will still be many people's cup of tea, but no one prefers a micropenis. I'm not sure the people who buy the big American trucks have small penises necessarily, they might just be overall insecure and need a very visible sign of status.
I see the fediverse is composed almost entirely of vegetarians. Feeling bad for a winged rat? Honestly? It's not like this man is just going around killing animals like Baron Trump...
I live in the French equivalent of NYC rat wise and trust me, either my cat or I get rid of the pests quickly.
They should've made Ron Somali and Hermione Pakistani/Indian/Chinese if they truly wanted to mix tribes up while keeping it sensical. Snape kinda has to be a white, nerdy and socially awkward guy (he's always given angry school shooter vibes, right?), or a skinny Indian guy maybe? Either way, it's an entirely unnecessary reboot with a bit of a 'shock factor' to justify its existence and force some people to waste their money in curious anger... I won't even waste the bandwidth it would take to pirate it!
9 years and a bit today, and we got married in January. And it's not like I wanted us to wait for it, it's just that I spent the first half of the relationship engaged in military service (they don't let you get married in the first 5 years where I was). God's great! 😁
I got my comments deleted on Lemmy because I mention people's possible hair colours, and was banned from Hexbear for similar reasons. I understand your frustration, I'm sorry it happens and honestly, I wonder if there are any better discussion spaces online (Reddit is even worse than what it originally was, which is saying a lot). I'm freeloading here, haven't given Lemmy a cent, maybe you'll feel better commenting here if you don't give them any money? You might be silenced (until you create a new account), but at least you won't get scammed.
So, in the West (again, I doubt we're talking about 100 years ago in India), people were socialized like that until recently? They weren't going to parks and markets? Mmm. That's possible, I guess? I somehow doubt that to be true, but I'll take your word for it because I'm too lazy to do otherwise. 😅
That's just stupid. I would definitely resort to terror tactics if fighting a stronger enemy, like THE COALESCED FORCES OF WESTERN IMPERIALISM. It's not like you can talk amoral monsters into being good, or like you have the time and resources to develop nuclear bombs and aircraft carriers.
As you said, he's disabled. I have a trisomic uncle and I would've understood if he was put on a leash (he wasn't, he just listened to my grandpa, but not everyone has it so easy). I don't understand the need for it in other cases. I mean, two of my friends' kids are runners and all we do is just run with them and grab them when the time is done, they/we have never had any need for a leash. I'm sorry if people have harassed you about it though, I certainly wouldn't. I just voice my questions and opinions in voluntarily attended online spaces.
I literally have never seen a kid on a leash IRL (I'm not American) nor heard anyone say "goddamn this kid is so hard to raise, lemme put him on a leash". Never seen a pic of my gramps on a leash, or a history book showing leashed kids. Through millennia kids have been properly raised without leashes. So, I ask again, is this not just another example of how incompetent people have gotten at being people in some areas of the world?
People having little patience for children is yet another example/consequence of social decay. Imagine being a grown adult and treating kids with anything but playful kindness...
