...and Pontius Pilot was one historical figure we can prove exists. In letters from Rome telling him to stop genosiding so many Jews. We are supposed to believe that if this really happened, such a guy cared what the Jews thought, and would give them a choice on who to kill? Really? He would have killed Jesus, the other guy, and the crowd for good measure.
It's clearly written to absolve Rome of any guilt since they founded the religion and all of the source material is more likely attributed to Mithra and Simon Magus.
I'll do you one better, nuclear families are a scam. We operated as communal societies for most of mankind's existence. But now we are expected to not only stay with one partner but to raise kids on our own as well. It forces us to work harder and more importantly for the establishment buy more products since we share less.
Even IF you somehow manage to navigate today’s maze of failures, rejections and heartbreak, what is your reward? To live yet another day in misery? To wait until climate change, war or disease does away with us?...
When I was at my absolute darkest. So bad that I was in the midst of ending it. The thought that pulled me back was why not wait and see if things will change. No guarantee it would be any better on the other side. There was a chance if I didn't though.
Now I know how much life can change in how little time. Things can always get better. Just hang in there ans seize the day the best you can muster. Don't let anything drag you down it's all bullshit anyhow.
The polls that are showing up all seem to have flaws like this.
It is way too early to know anything in this election anyhow. I've been following it closely and it is going to be a circus. Trump is showing mounting signs of dementia in his speeches as each one worst than the last. The stress of massive court judgment deadlines approaching seem to be breaking him as his best shot at getting 4 Billion vanishes before his eyes. Meanwhile Biden looks like your average retirement home resident. Don't get me wrong, I like what he's done, but both of them are just too damn old for this.
I don't understand how Trump can remain a candidate at this rate if he winds up broke (he owes NYS half a billion) and in jail (the New York election tampering case) by the summer. It's fucking insane and I love following it with existential dread and morbid curiosity.
The problem isn't new at all either. Someone on the right, just figured out how to create the incel culture and weaponize it. It's sexism all the way down on both sides when there shouldn't be sides at all. It's the culmination of the social construct known as gender.
No shit. I mean what console has survived as long as those OG Gamecubes. I have had mine for 20 years and the first issue came up this year. Turns out it’s an easy fix I can do myself and nothing destroying the console itself I can still play while working on this fix....
But Hamas is. "From the River to the Sea" is about eliminating Israel. You can't support Hamas without being anti-Israel because it is in their own laws that Israel cannot exist. Don't get me wrong I don't support what is happening to Palestine, but Palestine "winning" isn't a solution either so long as Hamas is in power.
