Generally yes. But you also control how you react to things. Not everyone, especially not strangers, can be held accountable for how you react. There’s just not enough time in the day to know how every single random person will take things, and by the same token, you don’t know how many times that person has dealt with the same situation that made them finally snap

It would be great if everyone was kind all the time, but that’s just blatantly not gonna happen. You can try to be kind all the time, but that does not mean you will succeed. I’ve never purposefully tried to hurt my girlfriends feelings, and she’s never purposefully tried to hurt mine. But we’ve still gotten in fights and we’ve still hurt each other, and we’re still together and have let things go. If you sit there with every single random person on the street who shouts something at you and hold onto it then you’re not really gonna do well in the world. If you then choose to be a hermit and not talk to people, you have absolutely no right to complain that you can’t make relationships work.

I mean if someone called me a cunt I’d probably just call them a cunt back and move on with my life

If someone punched me in the face I would punch them back and then also move on with my life

It’s not that deep

What do you love about someone? And what effort do you put in?

And if you are trying to be in a relationship, especially a long term one, and you don’t want to meet their family, that’s gonna be a no from like 99% of people

There are very few people who are gonna marry someone who does not take any interest in their life, their family, or their friends.

So then he wasn’t boring to her and they ran into other issues…

Who is this us you speak of? Do you have zero interests in life? Nothing that you like doing? If that is the case, that really does sound like depression and I hope you are able to get help for it

Ok, but then you can just move on with your life and realize she’s not the one for you…

If you’re just approaching a random girl she probably isn’t going to remember you in a couple weeks unless you are being super fucking creepy, and for sure no one in the general public is going to remember you 15 minutes later

Honestly they’re not

I played constantly up til black flag, got unity and the Viking one, and hated both. Stopped playing after an hour

Ah yes the old “you said you liked chocolate so you must hate vanilla” speech

I’ve voted in every election that’s taken place since I was old enough to. When it comes down to it, I’d still vote for biden, because I agree, having the democratic party in charge is way better than having the republicans in charge.

However, that also gives me pause. Because you shouldn’t be able to run on “hey I’m not as shitty as the other guy”

That’s what I hate about the two party system. Democrats by and large are not progressives. They prop up the current system just as much as anyone else. There needs to be an actual progressive party, and massive caps/bans on lobbying

Well 1) the man committed treason so nah he should grow some balls and stand for what’s right, but he won’t 2) he is literally leaving his position and retiring in October so he could extra grow a pair and go against trump, but he won’t. 3) McConnell is one of the most evil men in US political history

Why is he wrong? He’s not comparing the two to each other, he’s staying that neither are good candidates, which is objectively true

Maybe instead of always forcing us to vote for the lesser of two evils, the democrats should take a second, listen to their base, and actually run someone competent.

Because right now, there is zero difference between how the republicans would handle this genocide and how the democrats are handling it. Both parties are in the pockets of oil companies and billionaires, and don’t want a change to the status quo.

Yes voting democrat is marginally better, but it’s not as vast a chasm as people like to make out. The system itself is broken - fucking around in the system isn’t going to fix it. It needs to be smashed and then rebuilt back up

I thought this was just me but I swear this is so fucking annoying

Completely unnecessary filler space

I’m having a weird issue now where I can’t view any other instances other than my main one and it’s kinda annoying. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Feel like if this god is so powerful he should be able to handle a little war here and there right?

Or is the Christian god just not as strong/powerful as they want us to believe?
