"Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”

Multi-Billionaires

So what you’re saying is that I have a chance.

Just since you seem to be misunderstanding. It never says that you have to be poor just that if your family is covered you should donate to those less fortunate and prop up your community. Jesus was all about social safety nets and fair distribution of wealth. It’s why the Pharacies had him killed. He was a socialist

jaybone ,

Socialism didn’t even exist as a concept. Jesus said give to Caesar what is Caesar’s. Go back to hexbear and tell your mom you need more HotPockets.

You are so misinformed it hurts. Like maybe you should read a few of my comments from my comment history before assigning me a completely random political view that I don’t hold? I’ve had a chance to look over your comments now and brother take a break go and touch grass. You post three times as many comments as I do and we’ve both been here for ten months.

render unto Ceasar what is Caesar’s means follow the laws of your local government AKA pay your taxes so I have no idea where the fuck you were going with that…

If you want to debate scripture with me feel free to reply. Though you may want to do some re reading of Acts first.

Sincerely someone who actually read the Bible and was brought up in a church driven community.

All the believers were together and shared everything. They would sell their land and the things they owned and then divide the money and give it to anyone who needed it. The believers met together in the Temple every day. Acts 2: 44 to 46

fukurthumz420 ,

i’m going to make it both. we really do need to advance women’s equality before we let men take their identities in order to dilute the few offsets women have had legislated for them.

just like how many affirmative action band-aids are being ripped off before poc have actually gotten equal footing in society, we are pushing women’s advances backwards by pretending that we live in an equal society and allowing men to take advantage of the mechanisms meant to promote equality.

kibiz0r , in Not since Apple Vs. Epic...

It’s not that hard.

Fuck the RIAA: The artists should hold the rights to their music, not the publishers.

Fuck AI: The rights-holders (which ought to be the artists) should be able to distribute their work without fear that a bot will be allowed to use it to compete against them.

I just don’t see a healthy creative culture where you don’t push both buttons.

FeelzGoodMan420 , in A beautiful thing...

I’m just gonna say it. This meme is mid af. I think there just hasn’t been good memes lately and people are starving for content. This is a C+/B- meme at best. Sorry if the truth hurts.

Frozengyro ,

I think organic memes like this are better than ones designed specifically to be memes. That being said, yea, it’s really not super funny/interesting/unique of a meme.

FeelzGoodMan420 ,

I think it’s only a meme because the girl is attractive and has a southern accent. Take those 2 away and no one would give a shit. I think mostly the girl being attractive is driving the spread.

Knowyourmeme puts it well:

“…leading to memes, fancam edits and humorous romanticization from male internet users who found themselves attracted to her.”

TheFriar ,

and has a southern accent

She does? I just watched it for the first time, and she didn’t seem to. She was putting on an affectation because she was making a joke

FeelzGoodMan420 ,

Well she either has a southern accent or she pretended to have one. But it definitely added to the “charm.” I’d argue perhaps this video wouldn’t be very popular if it wasn’t a southern accent and a pretty lady.

MossyFeathers , in the truth

Republicans cutting funding to NASA because rockets are “satanic devil worship” and “are arousing to females (biological) and homosexual men because they’re phallic in nature” in T-minus 10…

(Spoiler: they were gonna defund NASA anyway)

Edit: also, just a reminder that space and space accessories actually make a lot of money for the US and push technological progress, which is why American politicians don’t like NASA; it’s a successful and profitable government program.

ShaunaTheDead , in Some conservative talking points really grind my gears

Reminds me, I drive a school bus part-time and my bus has a malfunctioning sensor in the transmission and so on the screen on the dashboard it says "CHECK TRANS". So every morning I'm like looks down at crotch "yup, still trans!"

Do people really feel that way? I’m just drained and glad to be home alone again.

FiniteBanjo OP ,

It’s not a constant 100% result, but yeah it’s kind of a well established natural phenomenon. Couldn’t stop it if you wanted to. Some people can get the same benefit solely from having their comments upvoted, we process it the same as regular human interaction. Bonus points exist for huggers.

Jakeroxs , (edited )

I consider myself to have a pretty small social battery, but gaming online on discord isn’t nearly as draining as being physically with people at someone’s house or something, maybe I’m just weird.

Even then, had some great times on Civ5 with everyone over at my place playing on our laptops and chillin/watching TV or just talking at the same time

UnderpantsWeevil ,
@UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world avatar

Do people really feel that way?

Being around people I know and like is incredibly pleasant and relaxing, particularly when we’re all engaged in an activity together - volleyball or board game night or watching a movie together.

The trick I’ve found is to do something everyone vibes with and that has incredibly low stakes. So, like, carving pumpkins during Halloween or splitting a bottle of wine and complaining about work together or visiting a museum.

Its nice to have people saying and doing things that you wouldn’t normally say or do. And its nice to have other people responding to your own thoughts and feelings.

Daxtron2 ,

Sounds like you have shitty friends lol, my group would never do that.

Etterra ,

Almost all my friends have kids now, so group anything is basically impossible, assuming we we even want to do the same thing at the same time.

@Zoot@reddthat.com avatar

Doscord friends! You can make quite a few friend groups to play games with that way. I’ve got a group where we are either playing DnD, or were finding the next coolest game for us all to enjoy.

johannesvanderwhales ,

Seems like it’s a valid choice in a competitive game. Unless there’s an option to disable military victories or explicitly play coop.

Daxtron2 ,

I don’t consider abusing my friends because they’re slower than me in a turn based strategy a good thing to do.

johannesvanderwhales ,

…It occurs to me that I am interpreting “rush” in the RTS sense of attacking early before your opponent is ready, not in the sense of pressuring people to take their turns faster.

Daxtron2 ,

Haha yeah that makes sense why you would think that. Could definitely be taken either way.

Meron35 ,

Team Humans Vs Team AI is a very fun option. Lots of civs have really fun team synergy.

IzzyScissor ,

I’ve been playing couch co-op with my husband on both of our Switches. It’s not too bad if you don’t force a turn timer. The game will give you a ding when you’re the last one to play, but we both have ‘side games’ or play with our cats in the meantime if the other needs more time. I wouldn’t do it online or with a turn timer, though.

pantyhosewimp , in Justice for Sid

How about the whole villains-have-rotten-teeth thing? When this came out in the theaters the first time, my best bud had bad teeth from growing up poor and neglected. Fucking felt terrible watching it.

Jakeroxs ,

There’s the thing where the poor/neglected tend to have a higher rate of mental health issues, for… Obvious reasons.

azertyfun ,

Villains are stereotypically older fat queer bald men (e.g. Vladimir Harkonnen). These are all factors people have little-to-no control over.

Media will sometimes subvert those expectations, but most of the time the iconography matters more to the filmmaker than decency. It’s quite fucked up the insecurities these portrayals breed, no amount of positive affirmation will make up for the fact that some natural body types are fundamentally associated with villainy in the Western visual canon.

RubberElectrons ,
@RubberElectrons@lemmy.world avatar

Very lucid and clear comment, now I gotta ponder it. Thanks for the kindling.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Villains in Don Bluth movies don’t have rotten teeth.

They have big teeth.

Even if they’re penguins.

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/78eb0b20-92f6-481e-8bb2-2ee08b91e483.png

Clearly you should have taken your friend to see The Pebble and the Penguin and showed him that brushing can lead to villainy.

(Okay, the first guy had missing teeth…)

HootinNHollerin , (edited ) in Everyday, as an American

As a mechanical design engineer in America having dual systems creates unnecessary complexity and frustration and cost for me all day every day. I full force embrace switching to metric

MisterFrog ,
@MisterFrog@lemmy.world avatar

My condolences. I’m already annoyed with the times USC units are presented in Australia (our nominal pipe sizes are often talked about in inches, and sometimes valves and such have USC flow coefficients because the manufacturer is American).

So I cannot imagine the pain you must be subjected to.

Aux ,

There are three sizing standards used in the UK right now: metric for newer homes, imperial for older homes and farmer’s sizing for fuck you, that’s why.

letsgo ,

We even like combining them in one thing. Tyres are measured using inches for one dimension and millimetres for the other two.

KreekyBonez ,
@KreekyBonez@lemmy.world avatar

as a mechanic working in a hodgepodge US/EU factory line, I have to suffer through always carrying double the tools to service metric and SAE machines. and after so many years in the industry, I still slip up and say 3/16 when I mean 3/8 sometimes, because fractions are a shit system for wrenches.

oh, and some of our linear encoders readout decimal-feet, because fuck it, why not?
