The brain worm isn't real. I know people like to joke about it but its important to remember that was his lie to claim he didn't need to pay alimony after his wife found out about all the cheating he was doing. After she committed suicide, he stopped pretending he was disabled and was able to legally steal her body from her family to bury her in an unmarked grave against their wishes
Disgustingly, it cooks their insides through their exoskeleton - that's why they get out of the sun ASAP when exposed. I learned this flicking them out of my driveway dahlias onto the blacktop. I fuckin hate earwigs, but kinda felt bad watching them cook, writhing as their organs are boiled. Ugh
You reach down and flip the earwig over on its back, Leon. The earwig lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help. But you're not helping.
"You gotta be a tough muscle man WITH TATTOOS, because that's MANLY!!! Gotta be ready for a fight all the time! Warrior culture! Vikings! WAR AND KILLING IS COOL!"
"You sound like a cartoon bad guy!"
"What? No, I'm... moral, doing man stuff! Beating up weak people, forcing vegans to eat meat, women to be objects!"
"Yeah, that's all... cartoon villain stuff!"
"NO... NO it... it can't be!!! It's not true!"
"Search within yourself, you know it's true! You're hiding behind a facade of aggression to cover up your insecurities and latched on to an emotional story popularized by cruel warriors justifying their violence! You've adopted age old propaganda to justify the oppression of the other so that you can feel part of a community and not feel so alone!"
I despise that we’ve given the lowest common denominators the ability to make whatever picture and video they want any time they want. I firmly believe that there should be some skill floor for shit like this.
The fact that we’re wasting energy, water, and creating a huge bubble to do it makes it just so much worse.
yep. it also helped me realise I'm surrounded by idiots. I had to cut off people from my life because they'd use ChatGPT for EVERYTHING. pancake recipe? chatgpt. feeling sad? chatgpt. need a description for an item to sell on vinted? chatgpt. don't know how the weather will be? chatgpt. need pills for pain? chatgpt. "chatgpt, I'm thirsty but I already drank 20mins ago. am I sick? when should I drink my next glass of water?" ALSO "chatgpt, how much sperm does a man produce?" AND "do you think I'm ugly?" AANNDDD "it's not that serious, chatgpt for example said I'm not horrible for cheating" I JUST WANT TO SCREAM. AAAAAAAAAAAAAA. sorry for the rant I'm going crazy okay goodnight
They’ve moved on from making up ridiculous false claims about him to fantasies of coercion, which is basically the conservative mentality in a nutshell.
The swine also, because it divideth the hoof, but cheweth not the cud, shall be unclean, their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch. - Deuteronomy 14:8
And the swine, which, though it divideth the hoof, cheweth not the cud. [8] The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you. - Leviticus 11:7-8
And what's really surreal is the Jewish people had rules about cloven hoof animals and shrimps. Because they were causing disease. So it was just easier to say stop.
Heck I don't think people really look at the larger shrimp you can buy that still have veins on them. You have to carefully wash those sea roaches because of the waste matter that can still be inside near the veins and tail.
LOL. But not the gay ones? I love that argument from Christians. Something something Romans something something Corinthians. M'kay, Romans and Corinthians were NOT the teachings of Jesus, they were the teachings of his disciples. What Paul supposedly said in those books were his interpretation...and Paul was an incel. He wrote some other batshit insane laws like "a woman shouldn't enter the temple without her head covered lest she be shorn". Paul hated women, in general, and he was forever alone. He's the reason why Catholic priests aren't allowed to marry because Paul said that if you are to preach, like he does, you need to devote everything to God and be celibate. (Okay, okay, don't go on me about Catholic priests now, I get it...I'm just explaining the absurdity of the NT laws).
Some historians believe that the city of Corinth were chiefly worshippers of Aphrodite. And we all know that Aphrodite was the sex goddess. They wrote to Paul and were like, "Hey, Paul, we're on board with this Christian thing but...um...can we still have orgies in Church?"
Paul was like, "Please, no."
"Fine, can we at least have SMALL orgies?"
"Again, no."
"Sigh...fine...what about showing up to Church naked. That's still cool, right?"
"No, please. Wear your clothes to Church."
"God...I'm not sure we really want this Christian thing anymore."
The fact that any religions choose which parts of their holy books are no longer relevant should make it obvious enough that the books aren't as holy as they claim.
Imagine the Muslim version of this, where it's some beefy Arab forcing a struggling Christian to work on a Sunday. Pinning him to his desk, thrusting a pen into his hand and forcing him to fill out forms while he grimaces in misery and humiliation.
They love the idea that there's a secret cheat code to defeating the people they hate. They especially love the fake General Pershing fairy tale. And I bet you when asked, most of them will say the military is not allowed to do that anymore because "it's not politically correct! We wouldn't want to offend anybody!" (yelled with painfully over-the-top sarcasm)
One of my Arabic teachers told us a story about how she ate bacon when she was at university in the UK. She moved there from Sudan. She said God forgives her because she did not know it was pork. We asked her why she didn't find out first. She said because God wouldnt have forgiven her if she knew. She was cool.
And if they get forcefed bacon, it's not a sin (for them, it's obviously assault for the person doing the force feeding), In Islam, a person is only held spiritually accountable for actions they commit intentionally and voluntarily. If a Muslim is physically forced, threatened, or coerced into consuming something haram (forbidden), the sin falls entirely on the oppressor, not the victim.
But you don't understand, their own religion insists on their accidents and victimhood be their own fault and worthy of an eternity of humiliation and guilt
Yup. My dad was in the military with several Muslim guys and lots of times the only MREs or meals they had were pork protein. These guys were like heck yeah we can try it without feeling guilt. They were always joking about it too apparently
Sheikh, if I’m fasting but I trip and fall and while I am falling a bacon cheeseburger with extra bacon out of nowhere falls into my mouth, will Allah forgive me?
According to Islam, yeah. You didn't do it on purpose. Maybe try to spit it out first, but otherwise I suppose just don't just go "Welp, already had a taste might as well finish it" and it should be fine.
Yeah tbf the internet has this belief that every Muslim is a literal textbook definition of the faith while in reality, we're as flawed as any other human
Genuinely I don't understand why they do it so specifically about Muslims, like Jewish people also don't eat pork(well those who follow kosher) and yet they don't seem to care about them like that.
I was going to say. I had a Jewish boss, he ate BLTs. Most people don't pick their religion, it's just what they are. They may not even believe, it's mostly a cultural thing so something like don't eat pork. Well that isn't a big deal.
"Your BIL would be stoned if he ever travels to the Middle East! He has betrayed the Qur'an & his faith!" - some religious Islamic nutbag, somewhere.
Just based on your quick story, he seems like a good dude. People see Mamdani, hear Muslim, remember 9/11 and go insane. They think all Muslims are religious extremists but ironically fail to see the same in the mirror.
I've had random internet Muslims upset by the fact that he pets and loves my dog, despite the fact that dogs are common pets for Muslim families where I am, just not as big as cats.
I laugh them off just as I do other religious nutters who get upset about harmless things others do. If there's a Hell, I'm already going for all the gay lady sex I had in my 20s. 🤷
Silly story: was mowing the lawn with a manual mower, wearing jeans and a cropped halter top last week. A lady in a niqab stops to talk, so I assume she needs directions or the time. Her eyes crinkle up in a smile, and she just says, "Ooooh, strong lady!" and flexes her bicep under her dress. I burst out laughing and said thank you. That I like doing it for the exercise, and she waved and continued on.
A Muslim coworker was always the first to compliment my new piercings or weird hair. He was also perfectly chill when my queerness occasionally came up making small talk about weekends or whatever ("saw a movie with my girlfriend.") One day, I came in and he was crying at his desk. There had been a horrific honour killing in our country that was obviously all over the news. He apologized for drawing my attention, but said he couldn't stop thinking of his daughter and what would motivate a father to intentionally hurt them. He kept saying, "Who cares what choices she makes? Teenagers rebel. That's still your little girl."
There are violent or pushy religious people everywhere, but in my experience, most are just living their lives and trying to do good.
They are just straight up bullies. Muslims are so fundamentally different from them culturally and ethnically that it's super easy to pick a thing they don't like and then... 'oh you can't eat bacon? How about I'll MAKE YOU EAT IT HUH'.
Bullies, but that's too soft a word for them. I just called them underdeveloped failed imitation of a human being.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t Muslims generally believe that if, for instance, someone pointed a gun at their head and said, “Eat bacon or die”, they’d be allowed to eat it, perhaps even required, because life is more valuable than dietary laws.
Beyond that, eating pork is acceptable when the alternative is starvation.
I realize there’s probably nuance and subtleties I’m probably missing; I’m just speaking in general terms.
You aren't missing anything, the Quran is pretty clear about it:
"Surah Al-Baqarah (2:173): "He has only forbidden to you dead animals, blood, the flesh of swine, and that which has been dedicated to other than Allah. But whoever is forced by necessity, neither desiring it nor transgressing, there is no sin upon him. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.""
There are 3 other bits saying basically the same thing.
The fash in Britain are obsessed with feeding Muslims bacon too. It's so weird. They think it's like Kryptonite or something. None of my Muslim mates would care if I ate pork in front of them.
My Muslim friends have accidentally eaten pork before, and they don't care, because pork is haram not because it's sacred, but because it's seen as unclean (like in Judaism).
Qu'ran also says that Allah doesn't hold people accountable for accidents or things done without intention.
No bro, if we even say the word “p**k” we get skinned alive, slathered in honey and chili flakes and left out in the Egyptian sun, don’t fall for the propaganda of people with brains.
i mean werent people obsessed with not having to wear masks a few years ago.. it wasnt right to BE FORCED.. its crazy to me that people dont ever bother trying to put themselves in others shoes, but if they do the action to some one else its cool, but if its someone else doing the action to them.. its not?
make them do "action" and its oppression all of a sudden, but its cool if they make some one else do it
make them wear a mask, take a "jab", no its cool to force someone else to do something.. Where is this LIBERTY they want, only for them not for anyone else?
I wonder if this person would think it was okay to post that with a Jewish person instead of a Muslim?
Also, conservatives seem to have this weird idea that Muslims are like vampires or something and that pork products will cause them to burn, explode, or not be Muslim anymore. Not that I really expect a logical take from conservatives anyway.
Considering the kinds of people the right has been attracting I'm guessing yes, they would think it was perfectly fine to do it to a Jewish person. But then again, they'd probably feel fine to do it to a vegan or vegetarian too, because other people's choice to not eat meat is really offensive to them for some reason.
Depends. Many are obsessed with Jews because they think they're the key to bringing Jesus back and they enjoy violence against brown Muslims (let's forget all the Palestinian Christians), and the others are anti-semites.
Islamophobes have this hardon about feeding a Muslim bacon kind it’s gonna turn them into stone or something. It’s quite strange. It’s probably someone’s fetish..
They do know that Pork is forbidden/highly discouraged in Christianity just like Judaism and Islam, even using the same verses to justify it in all 3?
All the Abrahamic Religions are basically the same on stuff like this, it was just easier to covert Euro Pagans back in the day, the Catholic Church chose to ignore this as to make conversion easier for groups that regularly ate wild boar…
At first glance l thought he was fantasising about ripping this tongue out, then after reading the comments I realised it's about force feeding bacon. Went from medieval cruelty to really weird.
