you my friend are officially based af, thank you! I’m officially invested and going on a deep dive for this weirdo

Well thank you:) I’ve been thinking of this video through the exchanges: “if the truth is on your side, why lie?” https://youtu.be/CRtSZXS6wzQ?feature=shared

I would appreciate if sources were provided rather than sending me on a wild goose chase or being told essentially “trust me bro”

Do you not also think there’s an issue when we start saying “you can find a couple”? If even one doesn’t have a source but it’s being pushed as fact, I will start thinking the claim maker unreliable.

I really mean no offense, I’ve been trying to search and can’t find anything. I’ve asked chatgpt, Google, YouTube. I am trying to give benefit of the doubt.

That’s cool. I’ll just assume they’re satirical jabs. I certainly don’t know shit about him lol

I tried searching for these quotes cuz I’m dumb and was close to sharing them with friends thinking it was real

Unless you have sources, in case anyone else is curious afaik these aren’t real quotes. Bout got me though, I was like holy shit lol

It depends for me. The labels aren’t really useful if I don’t know the person. One kid I interacted with over a few months said enough in line with fascism that I call him that. Someone just telling me they’re communist, anarchist, liberal isn’t enough to really get their actual beliefs, given how much overlap and misuse of the terms there is. I will generally vibe with a more left leaning person, of course, so if any of those labels are used I’m like, cool, we’ll probably have good conversations. Even conservatives I’m opening up to. Republicans? My God. I blame my mental illnesses on that brain rot.

Speaking as someone who’s Christian fundamentalist parents did not ensure a proper education about this, whose community enforced it, it takes time to figure out, even with the Internet. I was sexually active years before I ever orgasmed, and even after that, the shame for enjoying sex at all was still engrained. I was aware of my anatomy, but with limited, supervised access to the Internet until 18, it set me up to be metaphorically fucked in my ability to communicate about it. But hey, I’m in my 30s and survived.

Maybe split up a bit, like a couple months a year over five to ten years

So, we shouldn’t feed people because capitalism. Got it.

Hey, I found that ex wife very useful to your story

Procrastinators unite!..Later! (I got diagnosed in my 30s, highly recommend)

I get what you meant by the question but I’m trying to demonstrate that it is impossible for us to conceptualize what nothingness is without something. It’s a philosophical issue that science can’t answer. You’re welcome to whatever beliefs and answers to the question you like, but without a way to falsify it, that’s all it is. A belief* (edited correction to autocorrect). Not scientific truth.

Further edit: just to be sure I’m clear, you’ve asked me to imagine what life was like before I was born, thereby pointing to my birth, which is something. My life is something. I don’t know what life would be like without

I was genuinely asking, more so of the person that’s skeptical of having to get permission. I’m glad it seems to be an ethical requirement

Lots, see another reply I’ve made

But that requires me to imagine something, which is not nothing

Yes, I remember parts of it because I enjoy learning about history. But I’m remembering something, which is not nothing.

Yeah, I have Netflix and YouTube (God please don’t inundate my inbox with ways to get around the YouTube ads. 1. I’m tech illiterate and 2. At least some of that goes to the creators I want to support)

the backlash from this improper use will impede access for the people who really need it

You aren’t her or any of the multiple doctors that have evaluated and tried various treatments with her. If you want to get into research and help look for cures for the vast, vast number of illnesses that contribute to people seeking this treatment, please do. Or help advocate for more money being funneled towards healthcare (including for education and training), cuz from what I understand there’s not a single country or healthcare system that has adequate resources to help everyone just in terms of the number of people available to provide what treatments we do have

Plus, gathering from comments about the article cuz I’m lazy, but I gather (and empathize) there’s the added benefit of giving any loved ones time to prepare and say their goodbyes without potentially traumatizing anyone that might find you after

Quick edit someone else commented the same thing literally right below 😶‍🌫️

Asking as an atheist myself: what is “nothing”?
