WHAT DID YOU DO

I talked to a monk about this quote once (we have mutual friends, and he came to a New Year’s Eve party at my shared art studio). He said this isn’t even talking about homosexuality. That the bible never actually says homosexuality is wrong. What that passage means is this:

The above text, I would like to point out is from the point of view of this translation of the original Hebrew. I spoke with my cousin’s rabbi on the matter and his response was different, saying that it was a mistranslation. See, the true translation says that a man shall not lie with another in the bed of a woman, which is to say, the Hebrews had a shit ton of rules about when a man was or was not allowed in a woman’s bed and private quarters (including, if she didn’t want you there, you weren’t allowed there. Hebrew women were also allowed to divorce their husbands and the image of the ‘oppressive Hebrew people’ is an image that was propogated by Christianity which, historically speaking, doesn’t treat the Jewish people too well and liked to paint them as being rather barbaric and backwards and cultish with their traditions, which, another piece of fun info, their traditions were one of the main reasons why the Jewish people were less likely, in medieval times, to die of the plague. Because washing your hands and avoiding the dead and vermin and the like was a lot of help. Of course the Christians persecuted them for not dying but that’s another matter. I’m sidetracked). So the verse is literally saying ‘Don’t fuck in some lady’s bed because that’s just goddamn rude’

I studied theology extensively and was going to become a theologist until I switched majors. The above commentary is 100% accurate and what I try to stress in a lot if conversations with Bible Thumpers.

why was the fourth Fast and the Furious movie just called “Fast and Furious” with no numbers or subtitle, almost like they were ashamed of many they made

actually on second thought, look at this. it’s a mess

Every single post on this is misleading. She wasn’t sentenced for having a miscarriage, not at all. She arrived to the hospital bleeding and the lack of a baby attached to the umbilical cord that was (still) attached to Ms. Patel tipped them off that something might be amiss. Upon further investigation they found text messages she had sent to a friend showing she made plans to poison herself to get rid of her child. She made plans to do this and knew what she was doing despite her friends urging her to get medical treatment. She was roughly 28-30 weeks along making the child developed enough to be considered a baby and not just a fetus.

They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery

omg do many people not know what fruit polos are? they are heaven

Actual quote from Floyd Norman (the first African American animator at Disney):  “When I came to Disney, even though it was the 1950s, and a lot of things hadn’t changed, and a lot of old attitudes were still in place, I was never aware of anybody or, you know, any kind of racism or anything of that sort at the Disney Studio… Walt really didn’t care who or what you were. He cared about your talent and ability.”  

Quote from Disney composer Richard Sherman (a Jewish man): 

What is that site about the KND? I don't understand what is happening.

Nearly everyone with ADHD answers an emphatic yes to the question: “Have you always been more sensitive than others to rejection, teasing, criticism, or your own perception that you have failed or fallen short?” This is the definition of a condition called rejection-sensitive dysphoria. When I ask ADHDers to elaborate on it, they say: “I’m always tense. I can never relax. I can’t just sit there and watch a TV program with the rest of the family. I can’t turn my brain and body off to go to sleep at night. Because I’m sensitive to my perception that other people disapprove of me, I am fearful in personal interactions.” They are describing the inner experience of being hyperactive or hyper-aroused. Remember that most kids after age 14 don’t show much overt hyperactivity, but it’s still present internally, if you ask them about it. The emotional response to the perception of failure is catastrophic for those with the condition. The term “dysphoria” means “difficult to bear,” and most people with ADHD report that they “can hardly stand it.” They are not wimps; disapproval hurts them much more than it hurts neurotypical people. If emotional pain is internalized, a person may experience depression and loss of self-esteem in the short term. If emotions are externalized, pain can be expressed as rage at the person or situation that wounded them. In the long term, there are two personality outcomes. The person with ADHD becomes a people pleaser, always making sure that friends, acquaintances, and family approve of him. After years of constant vigilance, the ADHD person becomes a chameleon who has lost track of what she wants for her own life. Others find that the pain of failure is so bad that they refuse to try anything unless they are assured of a quick, easy, and complete success. Taking a chance is too big an emotional risk. Their lives remain stunted and limited. For many years, rejection-sensitive dysphoria has been the hallmark of what has been called atypical depression. The reason that it was not called “typical” depression is that it is not depression at all but the ADHD nervous system’s instantaneous response to the trigger of rejection.

Tachyon makes cameras that mount onto guns, some of which are made specifically for law enforcement. If dashcams aren’t working and they won’t go through training, let’s just put cameras on the fucking guns, see exactly what the cops see.
