• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do people have an issue with people in their mid-20s dating much older people?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not the twenty-somethings trying to date older folks that are the problem, it’s old creepers trying to date twenty-somethings that are the problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the US so into Israel?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I think too, but that’s not the prevailing feeling of those in charge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is the US so into Israel?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a friendly nation in an area where those are scarce, so being able to base military operations out of there is seen as a key strategic asset.

  Not defending, just explaining.

  No, you can’t get baptized without studying the Catechism.

  Probably not if it was “So what?” but maybe if it was “…and it was the worst mistake of my life.”

  I’m just looking for a little self-reflection.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨For people who distrust police / the legal system: If you ran a small bussiness and need to hire people, and someone has a conviction but they claim innocence, do you hire them?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d be more likely to hire them if they didn’t claim innocence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I would write something extensive, but I don't wanna end up writing incoherent stuff, especially since I sometimes rely on AI to write stories for me. What should I do?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  First, stop using AI to write for you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When you block someone on Lemmy, does it stop them from seeing your posts?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s more like “mute” than block.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you were in Jail would you stick withe bible or be interest in other religions?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would stick with the Bible and read more about Buddhism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Am I only one who thinks that tattoos are for wealthy or semi wealthy people? Why not use that money in a CD, Volunteering, or Donations? Kind of feels a little bit selfish?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right, poor people don’t deserve art in their lives. How did we all get this so wrong???

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We all know crack was introduced primarily to black neighbor hoods. Why them? Why not people in the Appalachians? Or in Asian neighbor hoods all over the west coast?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To destabilize black communities and disrupt their growing social and economic power.

  It was explicit racism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you ever get the feeling of zooming out of your phone into your head and actually realizing everything, instead of just mindlessly watching videos?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never had that, but I don’t watch video on my phone. Or anywhere else, most of the time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it controversial to point out the Nazis were mostly Catholics?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s a fallacy called “begging the question”, a form of bad faith. The question itself assumes something false to be true, then asks a question based on that false assumption.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do first time movie writers ensure someone along the way won't get ripped off? Like say Jay in the mail room sees your scripts and develops it himself, what recourse is there against mail clerk?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A lie by omission is when you only tell part of something and leave out a relevant piece of information that changes the context of the rest of it.

  No saying anything is not that.

  Don’t spread other people’s business around.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do trains save fuel when they literally park on the tracks and block multiple intersections, with over a hundred vehicles steady burning gas all around waiting for the train to fucking move?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  stop idling your engine

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you give the fae a false name which others would identify you as, can they still use that false name to control you?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In most stories, it’s the name their birth mother gave them, so no, not necessarily their given name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is 71° F (21° C) the ideal weather to wear shorts?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Temperature doesn’t matter as much as wind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨After opening a jar of pizza sauce, how long would you trust it was still good in the fridge?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Homemade or store-bought? The preservatives and extra sugar and salt give it an extra couple days.

  Are these the words you meant to type?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do left-leaning—or not even left-leaning, but pro-choice, pro-life people who don’t care about fornication—who are also Catholics and Christians justify their religion?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Granted, I’m not really who you’re asking, but:

  Most of us got our religion before our politics, and seek to square our political positions with our ethical framework, not the other way around.
