  • I think you need to look at this as an immersive romcom and then it becomes funny. Considering he believes it, this is such good writing.

  • I'll take the low hanging fruit and discuss whether this is in line with the community rules:

    You are violating rules 1, 2, 5 and arguably 10.

    1 & 2 need to no further argument; they are syntactical in nature.

    Rule 5: Is about not posting something to further an agenda or spurr debates. Your post is more argument than fact and description. I think that's pretty self-explanatory.

    Rule 10: the fact outlined is not true, and we don't need to have a religious discussion about that; we can merely look at this in isolation. Whether Jesus is real or not can't be proven because we project something personally onto him. If you believe in Jesus, that's fine, but this hasn't passed the scientific threshold of being a fact.

  • Currently Israel is invading Gaza and killing Palestinians in droves. At this point there is one place where an immense amount of war crimes are committed, and it's Gaza, and the perpetrators are overwhelmingly Israel soldiers and leaders.

    Sure we can have a nuanced discussion, but currently the situation is pretty one-sided, so arguing about nuance is misplaced.

    There's a vast amount of false equivalency and whataboutism in your comment and I really hope you are self-aware how dismissive this makes you sound.

  • Ah so he didn't like the existing government in Palestine and runs a war of invasion just to install a sock puppet regime in that region.

    NGL that's just as unreasonable as what we all think he is doing. There's nothing noble about killing civilians.

  • Damn I didn't know you would bluntly ask me like that but I can send you my tinder profile if you're up for it

  • That's one hell of a bad faith question. This is rules to a shitpost community, chill out and if you actually have a question ask it in a genuine way lol.

  • Wrong community.

  • I think this is very colloquial, and I'm gonna take a crack at the interpretation:

    Depression means a depressive episode, or a depressive disorder (featuring those episodes). Usually depression can't be cured or healed, but you can go to therapy some people manage to accomodate for it or have preventative measures in place.

    Depression can be triggered by lots of things or nothing at all, but iirc there's a genetic component to it.

    For all those events that trigger it, those don't last forever and maybe the depression is dependent on the trigger. If so, killing yourself means there's a life without depression you will never know. You could view the depression as temporary, and killing yourself as permanent.

    With the genetic predispositions and randomly triggered depressive episodes or depressive disorders that last forever it's harder. However, what if you find a way to deal with it, but you need to get over the worst part of your depressive episode? Then you might kill yourself, and you never know there's a normal life out there you could have lived.

    I think this is what people are getting at. That you never know whether it just took not killing yourself on that one day to get back on track and maybe live a more fulfilling life right after.

    That said, there's plenty of bad situations where things only get resolved if you manage to physically change your habits or social circle. For these, if you're forced into your circumstances, I can totally say people arguing that there's no way out. And I should also point out that if you're killing yourself, you have not given up, but much more importantly, society has most likely failed you in multiple significant ways.

  • I am not a feminist.

    Feminism has a variety of different flavors with sets of specific ideals that are not a priority in my view, however the basic idea of equal rights is definitely important to me. The more I think about it, the less I feel I know what I'm talking about which is also why I don't wanna signify I have strong foundational knowledge on this topic. "Equality" is kind of baseline and not what you expect most kinds of feminism to expand to.

  • Testosterone Replacement Therapy - a treatment used to raise low testosterone levels in men, often addressing symptoms like decreased libido, fatigue, and muscle loss.

    And to OPs question, not a fan doing it if it's not prescribed, and that's also the constraints I would always do it in if my doctor said I needed it.

  • Well it does mean in criminal cases you don't call the prosecutors the state, but you call them "the commonwealth" which is interesting.

  • That moment when your doctor runs sudo apt upgrade on your brain directly.

  • If you can get through it that is. Take all your strength and be graceful and naive for a day. If she talks shit about you and it doesn't make sense to the Interviewer they might disregard your former boss.

    It will take a lot tho.

  • Yeah the second line had kinky energy for sure.
