I was raised in a church where tongues would often happen, and I got in trouble for questioning what or why they were obviously saying just gibberish.
Like the whole collapsing on the floor and speaking in tongues while shaking. Do people really just…do that? Like, is it something most people could be pushed to do? Is it actually just a big lie? A performance? Does the pastor ask them to act in such a way before the sermon?
Yeah, I was gonna say Pocket does this pretty well. You just have to Copy+Paste links.
Are you under 18? And are your handlers over 18? Are you also engaging in sexual intercourse with them if there is an age gap?
I think people are reacting negatively because of more concern you’re being groomed when maybe you actually need therapy and support for your trauma. You’re allowed to have your interests, but it’s also not healthy to use it as a way to distract from self work.
You can have handlers, you can do whatever you want. If people at school are being brought into it against their will or without explanation – then of course most people aren’t all going to completely understand.
This is at the Hyatt, ain’t it?
Completely this. Americans don’t like letting other people have nice things. A vending machine would be vandalized, filled with glue as a TikTok prank, attempted to be stolen, and stop working within a few days.
Americans don’t really give a shit about other people. We’re more individualistic. You got yours? Good. Fuck everyone else. If we have to have protests and fundraising efforts to TRY to convince people to help others – we got a long way to go.
Japan is built on respect for your fellow man. You can leave your wallet out somewhere and someone would return it immediately.
Kamala Uses Teleprompter: She’s dumb! She can barely speak full sentences and has a dumb laugh! Why would we want a president who can’t even memorize a speech on her own? Kamala isn’t fit to be president!
Trump Uses Teleprompter: I mean, he’s just being smart, because with a teleprompter he can keep his thoughts in order. Plus, I didn’t see any teleprompter anyway.
The panel with them spinning around was always a favorite.
I commented on a post about how shitty misogyny is-- on a sub about shitty misogyny, and the post got brigaded by MRA chuds. So many comments were calling women slurs, grouping women together by saying women are all whores, you name it. Many were upvotes and allowed to stay.
I got permabanned for MY Comment the next day. I tried to appeal and it got denied. I didn’t suggest violence or even harm. I didn’t drag them. I just didn’t say “Not all men.”
Reddit bans are incredibly biased and I swear given out by right-wing incels. I’m trying to ween myself from Reddit. Lemmy is good because I’m not endlessly scrolling content. Hopefully the ban actually just gets me closer to being off social media.
The absolute fucking bias is just RIGHT there in all our faces. A Black woman can’t do anything and have it be seen as professional or capable. A white dude could do the same exact thing and be perceived as a genius.
“Why do they have to make everything about race? It’s like they’re obsessed. Nobody cares what color you are!”
Also these racists: “Hmm. You know what’s a good use of my time? Going out of my way to hack a Roomba so I can call my neighbor the N-Word.”
Everything is projection.
Always infuriates me that they always try and humanize these chuds. “Oh it’s just saaaaaad. No matter what side you’re on, a man died! Show some concern!”
Because I’m positive he would show the same if some “blue-haired Black person” had fallen to their death, right?
Americans often don’t respect other Americans, NOR other countries. We also know xenophobia/racism well.
