If they are very devout they have probably been taught that homosexuality is a sin. They didn’t know what to say so went with “that’s nice”
That’s what I would expect anyway.
- Comment on Do people actually believe those "gurus" on the internet that supposedly "give advice"? These seems very sussy and feel scam-adjacent, isn't it? 1 week ago:
Some do apparently or they wouldn’t keep making the videos. Same thing for people who send out phishing emails and other scams. It must work sometimes.
“Spiritual gurus”, “self help gurus”, “crypto gurus”, “business gurus” they tend to be full of shit because if they were as good as they claim they would be making money with their skills and insights instead of making YouTube videos.
Why people fall for it just because someone claims to be an “expert” I will never understand, but I guess you could say the same about many things: advertising, politics, religion etc.
- Comment on Is "depress" ever used in this context? 1 week ago:
It’s weird because the words desynchronize, de-stress, decriminalize mean un-synchronize, un-stress, un-criminalize
So it would seem like depress should mean un-press (let go of the button).
But depress = press !

Guardian article here: theguardian.com/…/jewish-community-security-group…
The NSW CSG, which describes itself as a mixture of security professionals and trained volunteers, records antisemitic incidents and assesses the level of threat to the community, which its website says is currently at the highest level – critical.
It is run through the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies and funded by Jewish community organisations. It has received grants from federal and state governments.
Under NSW’s Security Industry Act, CSG also holds a “master licence”, meaning it can provide licensed security staff in the state. Its ME class licence allows it to provide the maximum number of more personnel, 50 or more.

Ah so it’s like “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream”
Scary!

If they can live 150 years without food do they really need help?
Sounds like the elves are immortal to me ?

- Comment on Scathing ‘jobs for mates’ review finds appointments to government boards routinely abused 1 month ago:
I have seen incompetent people hired and given more respect than someone who has done the job well for decades. Normally the excuse is “qualifications aren’t everything - a good team fit is important!”
Morons flourish in the Australian workplace - just as long as they suck up to the boss enough!
