Now before I state my reasoning on why I think this, I have non-binary friends who I've talked to and asked them what this means and the importance of it, I didn't watch a Ben Shapiro owns liberal vid and base my argument on that. The definition of neo pronouns are a category of new (neo)…
I understand that there are benefits on both sides. Pets make people happy, they make them feel less lonely and are sometimes their best or only companion in life. Also for the pet, coming from a shelter to a home is like hitting the jackpot. Nevertheless, I feel like a cat cannot be happy living…
On Tuesday, Facebook "whistleblower" Frances Haugen testified before Congress [https://www.nytimes.com/live/2021/10/05/technology/facebook-whistleblower-frances-haugen] and called for the regulation of Facebook. More government regulation of the internet and of social media is good for Facebook and…
The more I learn about the Minneapolis police, the more I’m disgusted about them. These officers hunted peaceful people like animals, fist bumping and cursing after hitting people. They fired from unmarked cars and are surprised that people fired back thinking they were being hit with a drive-by…
Anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers, the conspiracy theorists calling the entire pandemic a hoax - I'm just continually floored by these people. Their subbornness, stupidity and selfishness are at levels I used to think were impossible on this scale. At every stage of the pandemic, they've found new lows to…
Particularly on Reddit, I tend to see a lot of vitriol directed at landlords. I think part of this has to do with Covid-related eviction stays and a concern about what people are doing as these stays expire. However, people talk about landlords -- even just mom-and-pop type landlords who are renting…
People defend him because he gets his money from book sales instead of the offering plate. He says God wants to see him rich because he is loved and God is looking out for him. So never mind the thousands who could benefit from being donated too, he’s God’s special person and you can be too. You can…
Don’t get me wrong: Everybody should be able to live off of what they can earn from a week’s work. If a company can’t survive by paying people properly for their time, it shouldn’t survive at all. HOWEVER… Just focusing on the dollar-amount of the minimum wage draws attention away from the fact…
I’m open to my mind being changed as maybe I’m missing something. Before I begin, let me rule out the obvious here. People who are medically unable to lose weight or anything that makes them considered obese are exceptions to this, because obviously, they are unable to physically do anything about…
So pronouns are great, and I think workplaces, and schools, etc asking the people what their pronouns are, is also great. * He/Him * She/Her * They/Them * Xe/xem However, recently there has been an uptick in people, mainly younger persons, going by Bug/Bugself, God/Godself,…
Just to start I want to say that I completely accept everyone and respect what pronouns anybody wants to be referred to as. I keep my thoughts on this to myself, but think maybe I just don’t understand it fully. I am a female who sometimes dresses quite masculine and on rare occasion will dress…
Braids [https://www.byrdie.com/history-of-braids#:%7E:text=In%20relation%20to%20time%20periods,braid%20from%201644%20to%201912%3B] are not cultural appropriation. They have been used for 5500 years and have been worn by almost every culture. Modern cornrows originated in the Caribbean in the…
Id like to preface this by saying I am not trying to convince anyone that weed is completely harmless, or that you should start smoking. All I am trying to say is that it's safer than alcohol. 1: Addictiveness and withdrawals Marijuana is less addictive than alcohol. I'm not saying that it is…
The crux of my view is: -Anti-prostitution laws are non-sensical: It is legal (and widespread) to have sex with a consenting adult. It is legal (and widespread) to sell services. But it is illegal to sell sexual services. The same applies to places where is illegal to buy but not sell sexual…
I’m skeptical about the idea of open relations. People say it selfless but I disagree the idea of committing yourself to one person is quintessential to love. It just feels like people are trying to eat there cake and have it to. I’m not just talking about jealousy, if you love someone doesn’t that…
Similarly to my view about antinatalism, I came to this conclusion because I've seen many people suffer and thought that this would be a viable option for ending their suffering. I simply think that people should be allowed the right to die on their own terms. Why should we force other people to…
This is nothing against religions, but more about pointless laws or rules that are in place. If there’s a rule in place but a religious exemption to get around it, clearly the rule isn’t that important in the first place and probably shouldn’t apply to anyone. If the rule truly is that important,…
What is the point of a first date? It’s a time for 2 people to meet up together and hopefully have a good time which will lead to a second date (or hookup if that’s your thing). Generally speaking the date is planned around something both people will enjoy. Whether it’s a bad time or a good time…
I think the argument is quite simple. We as a society encourage behavior and personality traits in other people that we consider virtuous and beneficial for society. So what we did in the last decades was to encourage women to adopt many aspects of the traditional stereotypical male role like having…
Why do rappers sing about being a gang banger in their song when in reality gang bangs are actually super gay, think about it, its 1 girl with like 13 naked men all jacking off around her waiting their turn. Most the time spent by the guys is gonna be Jacking off next to another naked man and unless…
