  Why TF did someone down vote this??? Lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Torrenting is not allowed on Windscribe⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re probably right.
  But the service specifically says unlimited, and that it supports torrents.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Dust in the wind in my ass

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do this and enjoy life and stop being a victim⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  More like… It’s not shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do this and enjoy life and stop being a victim⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I may be insecure

  But this isn’t the kind of shit people mean by “shitpost”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨POV: You're too shy to tell the medical staff that you just woke up during surgery.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, they offered it as an option to me. Some kind of IV thing they turned on and knocked me TF out.
  I’m Canadian so it’s not like that option cost more or anything (thankfully wisdom teeth removal is considered a necessary medical procedure, rather than a dental procedure).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨POV: You're too shy to tell the medical staff that you just woke up during surgery.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I woke up during my wisdom teeth removal.
  I tried to let them know
  I have no idea if I was successful, because for all I know I was making crazy sounds while unconscious.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If you’re going to be strict, there exist no true Christian, because every single Christian has violated some Christian tenant, especially because some tenants are contradictory.
  But if you allow enough wiggle room to allow for the existence of Christians, then you’re going to run straight into true Scotsman when you try to exclude specific groups

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What type of house kicked you in the head to make you think that “no true Scotsman” cannot apply to serious topics?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The first 10 words of my reply were

  I’m not gonna stand here and defend a bad man

  For fuck sake am I on Reddit? Have I taken crazy pills?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  no Christians supported mass murderer
  Hitler and his supporters were Christians
  No true bible-believing Christians supported it

  Sounds an awful lot like the scenario that you described. In fact it matches the archetypical example so well that it’s kinda wild that you quoted it when trying to say it doesn’t apply

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You didn’t even try to read
  Go home

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not gonna stand here and defend a bad man, but I still feel like there is important nuance that is being left out, when you’re comparing him to the likes of Hitler. I feel like they’re different levels of bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Think about it⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not so sure of that Christian version of “no true Scotsman”, but it’s true that religion is typically just a tool used by people with power to direct the people to violence.
  But man is it an effective tool for that purpose.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hamster⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can you imagine being the hamster?

  Like you think you got some food or something for your nest, and you being it back, and suddenly this magic force attaches you to the cage.
  I wonder if the hamster knew it the force came from the magnet, or if it thought some unfathomable invisible being just reached out and stuck it there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hamster⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Aren’t there whole studies on how they’ll do exactly that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be honest and tell us what you see⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A good time 😏

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Road crews carry the world on their shoulders. They just aren't given enough to do what needs doing.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He isn’t wrong. Your bucket of bolts is gonna rattle tf apart on that road.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've done it again...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No matter how much pasta you make, you’re obligated to eat it in a single sitting.
  This is the way.
  This is the way I die.

  This is a boomer ass take

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kemchup⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imo we should go a step up from that:

  Communities should define their own categories, and identify certain categories as CW.
  Then clients could opt to auto-hide/blur those categories, and provide per-category overrides.

  Last time I tried to post something, using voyager, I didn’t even see the option to flag as NSFW, idk if it’s community specific or if this client simply doesn’t support it.

  You’d need to be able to submit the form for that to do anything lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Patter recognition⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was expecting to see another Loss meme

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨kemchup⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imo this is a failing of Lemmy itself. There needs to be a way to tag content under certain (community-specific?) categories, without needing to put a bunch of shit in the title.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨well you better go find it⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Shrimp cocktail

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
  1. This was a silly joke
  2. WhyNotBoth.jpg
  3. Imo providing high density housing is less evil than leaching off people to fund your retirement, building for building.
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Council housing when?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A real bro
  A super bro
  A super Mario bro
  Super Mario’s bro

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hate crimes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, and I blame my wife for it.
