its funny considering catholics were literally the original church, and we ask saints to pray for us like how you would ask your loved ones to pray for you. i dont know why everyone else gets that saints part wrong about us like were worshipping saints
thats not what it says at all (the white heterosexual christian male part), but i do agree that they shouldnt get rid of it. i would be very surprised if my rights were taken away.
on an unrelated note, part of why i liked jerboa more than reddit was that it wasnt a liberal echo chamber too. but after coming back after a few month hiatus, i see its become the same way.
Was reminded how Epstien not killing himself was/is so accepted yet it’s still a conspiracy theory. Is there any similar ones you guys believe to be completely true ?
i have actually heard a theory that it did end in 2012 but that the infinite life parallel universe thing (forgot what its called but when you just go to a new universe when you die in the current one) was/is true

beehaw has donations and releases regular reports of how its being spent, I think that model is pretty good. from what ive seen they always get more than enough needed.
agree. fetuses can live outside the womb starting at ~24 weeks, whether you are pro life or pro choice i think (and hope) most of us can agree abortion at 28 weeks is very wrong. i dont understand how people can think otherwise. plus the article says nothing about the fetus posing any dangers to her health.
Yesterday I went shopping in a very crowded supermarket. It was exhausting. I almost had a meltdown in public. do you have any advice on how to calm down / avoid overstimulation during such situations?
i personally like these earplugs for concerts, theyre made to keep things at a lower volume but still be able to hear everything clearly. i personally dont like extreme noise cancelling because I like to know whats going on around me, i just dont like it all being so loud. i think they could be good for a supermarket because you can talk to an employee or something and be able to hear them but much less loud. maybe u can also bring a little comfort item to keep calm.
im pretty sure im autistic, or at least neurodivergent in some way. i think getting tested would give me some peace of mind and validation, but it’s not extreme to where i would need extra help. so i dont really need to be diagnosed if itll just make my life harder. i heard that if diagnosed, you have to take your driving test...

for anyone with a loved one in a nursing home: try to visit often! there are pros and cons to letting them know ur coming vs coming unexpectedly. if u let them know ur visiting, theyll probably make some nice food for everyone that day (in my experience at least). on the other hand, if u visit unexpectedly, u can get a better idea of how theyre really treated.
