Ah right, my bad

I think the important takeaway of this meme is that native speakers have mastered the language in the way it wants to be spoken, but non-natives need to master formal language first to really understand casual use fully

I feel it as an autistic person, because even though English is my first language, I still feel like a foreigner learning a second

Both styles are valid

TL;DR: lol it okay

Honestly, if they don't treat it as a cash grab, I'd love it. Examining and exploring villains gives us tools to learn from the worst parts of ourselves in a safe way. I tend to look at villains as cautionary tales of beings blindly following their natures or doing horrible things to achieve a goal they believe in. I believe there is always value in that.

Context of Marvel lore, which is common in the US at least, but I don't know where you're from, so that's a valid question

Uhh, I can't tell if this is a shitpost comment or not, but I'll take the bait.

Ideas like sharing and improving the situation for the poor are perceived as dangerous to rich people because they would need to treat labor they are exploiting as people. It would cut into their profits and therefore the luxuries they enjoy

To a capitalist like Tony, socialist ideas are dangerous

How did it feel to melt that one time?

Rough, got laid off last week my sister is going through a divorce on the other side of the country

Someone tell Bones that you can lie on security questions

Aye, that's valid, it's just a different theory at that point

Fair, never heard that one, but I can agree with not making new ones

This is the first time I'm hearing plow cemeteries, and I'm not sure I'm on board with that. People usually spend time there to deal with grief and losing a little bit more of a dead loved one would be incredibly painful for a lot of folks

Fuck golf courses though

Yeah, I try to every day

Some days are harder than others, I ain't perfect, I've caused probably as much harm as good, but I try my best

Also, for anyone reading through this thinking, "I shouldn't give them money because drugs"

I use drugs to cope with chronic pain so I can get through a workday

I'm skilled labor and make a decent salary

The only things separating me from a homeless person were some "fortunate" family deaths providing enough inheritance to put me through college at a good time and some lucky networking

We should all be more humble and less judgemental of eachother's choices

I've quite a few friends I've personally pulled out of homelessness, so I've seen how hard it is firsthand, I hope things are better for you

I subscribe to a policy of cautious altruism, like a lot of folks already said. I need to keep myself and my family safe so probably not allow in the house, but I'd give food water, the hose, soap, shampoo, clean towel, and a change of clothes if I can. Maybe even some cash if I have it around to spare.

If I have a shed or garage I'd allow them to use it to change clothes privately and offer to wash their clothes if safe. They may have residue of drugs like meth on their clothes that I'm unable handle.

I've also got a decent amount of privilege to share.

Be kind, be safe

This political compass meme is wrong

Auth right would never
