Keep holding on because this isn't the Handmaid's Tale, fuckface.
  • 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?

  • Why do people see Adopting a Husky Personality and Culture through life inherently bad
  • 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.

  • Why don't we have cool vending machines in the US?
  • 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.

  • Guess the Episode [Hard]
  • I'll take a crack at it.

    S11E1 - Beyond Blunderdome

    Homer says that the villain needs to have shifty eyes so you know he's the evil guy to Mel Gibson. Homer is helping him make a movie. The movie is terrible and has nothing to do with politics. A dude gets speared by an American flag.

    Best throwback is the dog with shifty eyes at the end of the episode.

    E: sighs and hands points over. Pockets money.

    Trump, after mocking Harris over teleprompter use, stops rally to remove sign that fell on his
  • 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.

  • Is ChatGPT right that if you get denied appeal on a permanent ban you can try again in 6 months?
  • 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.

  • Every old meme is new again.
  • Bro is definitely not supposed to be a Black dude. Lips are too small, he's not coal black, doesn't have crazy eyes, or isn't disheveled. Black people weren't drawn with as much dignity, not even allowed near schools-- at least enough to preach the Bible to a bunch of white kids.

  • 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.

  • Hackers take control of robot vacuums in multiple US cities and abuse owners, yells racist slurs
  • "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."

  • Neo-Nazi slips to his death climbing Hitler’s favourite mountain
  • 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?
