You’ve Got Mail!

… Jk, I never have mail 😔

Does anyone know the context of this? I want to believe scientists put it there to learn mating rituals. Or like a lil landmark “you belong here!”

I mean, I think everyone is deserving of sympathy to some degree. Doesn’t mean excusing poor behavior, but it can help in understanding and preventing

Uh. Federal law is that cannabis is illegal, yet that doesn’t stop sales. It does effect prosecution when feds decide to, for sure.

But why male models?

If you aren’t spending time around people that complain about it, that makes sense. My mom is normally pretty quiet while my dad yells about whatever political issue, but this is one topic she gets vocally upset about as we’re celebrating Christmas together literally every year. It’s wild

Reminds me, there was a study done with brain scans to see if there was a difference between liberal and conservative brains. Conservatives have larger amygdalas on average, so makes sense that their fight or flight reactions are higher.

In theory, yes, but that should be the point of education and social programs tbh. Even then, restorative justice models don’t rely as heavily on jail/prison. Temporary and maybe permanent removal from a specific environment doesn’t have to require fully sequestering perpetrators from society. Caught early enough, extreme examples of violent individuals can be rehabilitated through house arrest and other programs like anger management, therapy, etc. Saves taxpayer money, reduces recidivism, and victims report much higher satisfaction as they can actually face their perpetrator and be more involved in the process seeking accountability.

In practice, prisons prop up class and racial segregation, perpetuating capitalist agendas.

I got the package deal with all of them over the summer and loved origins 😅 been working my way through them all to get ready for the new one. I was thinking I’d go this route of getting it and returning if I saw ads, but based on comments about the company having rape apologists I might need to do some more research before even bothering to take that risk

You’re being down voted for facts lol. We’re emotional, often irrational beings. How/when we present facts matters

You can still own guns in Australia, at least. It just requires applying for permits. I don’t get why people would be opposed to that

Adapt into apartment buildings maybe?

Jesus Christ, so 600 civilians? And I’m guessing it’s over 10k in Palestine now? I’ll have to look for a source to verify this but if you have one in the meantime that’d be appreciated.

Wait what came out about the October 7 attack?

For anyone struggling here in the US, I highly recommend looking into alcoholics/narcotics anonymous or SMART recovery (a secular version of AA/NA). They’re free! I know it’s not for everyone, but just want to put it out there in case there’s people unaware. You’re not alone, and it can help to have the community 💜

I’ve considered checking into rehab recently or just a mental health institution, but the idea of the cost is enough to keep me pushing through without. I have experience with SMART recovery, though, if anyone has questions. They use evidence based tools with most of it available for free online. The workbook is like $10. It has made a difference, but it can feel overwhelming and takes time.

Much love to everyone. Take care of yourselves 💜

You sure are doing women a favor by fear mongering over it and acting like it’s something shameful. With modern tech all you need is a picture of someone’s face anyway. And I say this as someone who has had content posted without my knowledge or consent. What exactly do you want me to do, live my life being “haunted” by this or tell people like you to fuck off and quit making it worse?

Growth rate: about one foot per day

Holy shit

I saw someone argue this is them reducing civilian casualties. They use roof knocking and delayed explosives and shit. Just sounds like they want to show off how much better their military equipment is, tbh.

Couldn’t tell you, I’m a dirty American

Yes. All humans can get yeast infections.
