There’s a theory that the <3 shape was originally meant to be a butt before it was inverted and called a heart. I mean look at it and look at an actual heart. So it’s true to form.

…and Pontius Pilot was one historical figure we can prove exists. In letters from Rome telling him to stop genosiding so many Jews. We are supposed to believe that if this really happened, such a guy cared what the Jews thought, and would give them a choice on who to kill? Really? He would have killed Jesus, the other guy, and the crowd for good measure.

It’s clearly written to absolve Rome of any guilt since they founded the religion and all of the source material is more likely attributed to Mithra and Simon Magus.

The state of the union proved he is right. Completely destroyed the GOP narrative and put out a ton of info that most people support.

Cats are constantly plotting how to take out their owners. Don’t worry, they are to lazy to ever attempt it.

The polls that are showing up all seem to have flaws like this.

It is way too early to know anything in this election anyhow. I’ve been following it closely and it is going to be a circus. Trump is showing mounting signs of dementia in his speeches as each one worst than the last. The stress of massive court judgment deadlines approaching seem to be breaking him as his best shot at getting 4 Billion vanishes before his eyes. Meanwhile Biden looks like your average retirement home resident. Don’t get me wrong, I like what he’s done, but both of them are just too damn old for this.

I don’t understand how Trump can remain a candidate at this rate if he winds up broke (he owes NYS half a billion) and in jail (the New York election tampering case) by the summer. It’s fucking insane and I love following it with existential dread and morbid curiosity.

I need coffee I spent a good minute wondering why the fact the repairman was a Pole mattered.

The problem isn’t new at all either. Someone on the right, just figured out how to create the incel culture and weaponize it. It’s sexism all the way down on both sides when there shouldn’t be sides at all. It’s the culmination of the social construct known as gender.

I didn’t expect to see regular Stormy!

The price is right. This is the only game I ever refunded on steam. It is way more linear than they made it out to be.

BBQ sauce. It’s like ketchup but better.

I’ve met plenty of Zionists who hate how the IDF is handling this.

Agreed. Story from my own experience… my dad once sent me to a religious retreat and I was totally eating it up. In hind sight I think it was just a convenient break for him. I approached him afterwards and told him how much I was feeling it. It had reinforced my beliefs strongly at the time. He then looked at me and said, “yeah, it’s all brain washing”. The whole weekend shattered then and there as I realized he was right. It wasn’t critical thinking that made me realize it was all shit, but by taking apart what they were doing to me and how it was distorting my perspective.

You combat this type delusion not with facts but in snapping a person to their senses as to how nonsensical their position is. Make them realize it themselves by pointing out small flaws in the method, not the message, and let the victim put it back together. There are kernels of truth in religious doctrine, but it’s usually covered in shit for some assholes agenda so it can be hard to just let go.

I seemed to pass as straight to cis gendered people, but like you said they are looking for that macho man vibe and despite my trying they could always see through it. Only gay and bi people ever showed signs of or did question it. I think much of what makes people uncomfortable about LGBTQ+ is because they see things that they see in themselves they don’t like. Society forces people to conform when things are far from black and white.

For example, despite saying that I am bi I have a strong preference towards women. I only crushed hard on a guy once, but never mentioned a word of it and was just best friends with him until we went our separate ways, due to the aforementioned homophobia around us. I wonder now, at this point, how different my life would have been if society was more open. I strongly suspect he wasn’t strictly het either as his wife is pan as well among other things.

As someone who worked in the medical CE space, oh yea. The doctors who have the most pull are the dinosaurs who have been using the same techniques for decades. Meanwhile the doctors with fresher views and novel techniques based upon new evidence struggle to get a dozen doctors to attend.

The good ones are usually very misguided people, oblivious to what they are really up to in my experience.

I recently came to accept that I am bi. I was puzzled how most of my life I only ever had luck with bi/pan women as I had refused to acknowledge that side of me due to rampant homophobia where I grew up. Something about us just repels cis women in my experience. My wife even had gay friends insisting she was a smokescreen and that I was forcing myself to be with her. Part of my trauma growing up was hearing people have the stereotype that bi people are just horny sluts and that it wasn’t just how they were born.

There seems to be a stigma against bi men in general just as bad as gay men in my experience (I’ve even heard tales of gay men hating bi men). Any straight woman I dated, or tried to, always seemed to be repulsed by me. My guess is that it is in the body language, since her gay friends insisted I was too. Society as a whole is getting better at accepting people but it is still fucked.
