- Comment on We need a more active admin. 1 month ago:
In the meantime posting about this chud is good for bringing attention to it. The other thread about this is why I just blocked the guy so I can get back to wasting my time on my own terms.

This is why I don’t bother buying games, much to the bewilderment of my partner who participates in this ‘buy 100, play 5’ thing.
Accept that you’re basic and save that cash for something else
- Comment on Anyone ever look at pictures of themselves as a child and feel no connection to them? 1 month ago:
Your sentiments are appreciated and we need more reminders like this out in the world in these dark times.
Yeah, family and loved ones will always have that bias because people are more than their physical appearance. Thoughts, attitudes, habits, feelings, kin. You love someone for all of those reasons and more.
But if I saw a doppelgänger child I’d be lying right to the parents faces to remain cordial.
YMMV. Highly subjective and all

All babies looks ugly to me
Yeah this is in line with how I see babies and kids, so that’s gonna explain some of it. It’s definitely an unwritten rule to say babies are cute.
Though my cousin had a couple kids and the youngest was the exception to the rule when he was like 2-6, just the cutest little thing.
So I don’t know.
- Comment on Anyone ever look at pictures of themselves as a child and feel no connection to them? 1 month ago:
It goes a step beyond for me.
I look at kid pictures of myself and think I was an ugly looking baby. Everyone else thinks I was cute. Which I take to mean everyone is being polite, but I couldn’t care less because I don’t remember being that kid whatsoever.
- Comment on Israel Is Blocking 11 American Doctors and Nurses From Leaving Gaza 2 months ago:
Nothing will change until we stop giving them carte blanche to do whatever they want. Daddy America would have to cut off their allowance and we know orange Mussolini has no intention of doing that.
So don’t expect ceasefires or international laws or citizenship status to matter one bit

They see Reddit pulling off having bots steer discourse and they’re green with envy. I can’t imagine it not being something like this
- Comment on Israel must face consequences over Gaza campaign: UN experts 2 months ago:
UN rights experts are independent figures mandated by the Human Rights Council. They do not therefore speak for the United Nations itself.
Well there’s your problem.
Not that it would matter if the UN itself acknowledged anything remotely close to this being genocide, they’re a toothless collection of bureaucrats

This is more of a don’t let your cats outside and don’t feed them frozen raw meat foods. Even though that diet is healthier for them as obligate carnivores

- Comment on Stress 5 months ago:
I mean yeah that’s true.
But on reddit reposts were everywhere and it was very common for bots to karma farm by doing so, so calling it out had a purpose.
- Comment on Stress 5 months ago:
My first instinct was to call this a repost as I remember seeing this like 4 years ago on reddit but this is a different platform altogether.
Though it Is worth the reminder to Treat yo self
