one thing I’ve noticed while running an online shop is that Americans never include their country when writing their address.

I don’t mean when filling in online forms, bc that’s obviously a required element. but when emailing me for address changes for orders, they never include a country in the updated address. but I always know the country is the United States of America because literally nobody else around the world would do that.

[whomst-am-i]

Seriously? Why would you include it though? It’s extraneous information like ofc its the us

[pangur-and-grim]

there are 195 countries in the world

Hey y'all I still don’t know wtf this means

[dicaeopolis]

people will really be like "🙄🙄🙄 special snowflakes everywhere... EVERYONE online is diagnosing themselves with ADHD and autism and shit" like damn wonder if there might be something about 1) a constantly changing stream of content you can tailor to your current interest exactly and/or 2) a method for socializing with no sensory overload, no fluency in physical/verbal social cues, and a literal off switch when you're not feeling it that might draw neurodivergent people

[dicaeopolis]

"wah wah there can't be THAT high a percentage of trans people online they're just transtrending" mayhaps there is some appeal, when you are trans, to spaces where no one knows anything about you or what you look like and you can construe your gender presentation to your heart's content,

[normal-horoscopes]

Why is it bad to not like organized religion? I offer my peanut butter protein bar

BECAUSE PEOPLE WHO SAY “ORGANIZED RELIGION“ NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW MANY PEOPLES, CULTURES, AND BELIEFS THAT ACTUALLY ENCOMPASSES

LIKE OH YOU DONT LIKE “ORGANIZED RELIGION?“ PLEASE TELL ME YOUR CRITICISMS OF SHINTOISM AND TENGRISM, CAN YOU TELL ME THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BUDDHISM, HINDU-BUDDHISM, AND HINDUISM? WHAT ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SUNNI AND SHIA ISLAM? OR THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PROTESTANT AND A QUAKER?

THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THESE THINGS ARE ALL INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT, THE FACT THAT THEY ARE DISTINCT HAS MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, CHANGED THE COURSE OF HISTORY

ITS A GENERALIZATION SO BROAD AS TO BE COMPLETELY USELESS, ESPECIALLY WHEN MANY OF THESE THINGS DO LEGITIMATELY DESERVE TO BE CRITICIZED. BY STICKING THEM ALL INTO THE BUCKET OF “ORGANIZED RELIGION“ THAT YOU “DONT LIKE” YOU ARE NOT ONLY REDUCING AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF GLOBAL CULTURES TO A STEREOTYPE (WHICH IS RACIST) YOU ARE ALSO LOCKING YOURSELF OUT OF ANY SORT OF NUANCED UNDERSTANDING OR EFFECTIVE CRITICISM.

I didn't think of it this way, but you're right. I think the way many Christian churches and congregations act is toxic, but every Jewish person I've spoken to has had a good relationship with faith. I live in an overwhelmingly white Christian area, but the Sikh kids I went to school with were also pretty cool. Because of the way I was raised and the community I grew up in, I linked 'religion' with 'christianity'. As an adult, I need to check that and unpack it. Thanks, CT.

[normal-horoscopes]

EXACTLY

PEOPLE SEE THE PROBLEMS WITH MODERN CHRISTIANITY AND JUST SORT OF ASSUME THAY ALL RELIGIONS ARE LIKE THAT WHEN IN FACT CHRISTIANITY IS ACTUALLY AN OUTLIER

[prismatic-bell]

Christianity is a textbook cult.

Most religions are not like this.

One thing that took me longer than it should have to understand was that the books you build your path on dont have to be solely from the occult section. Read history books. Read mythology books. Mycology. Mental health. Local botany. There are a lot of things that apply and are extensively written on – just not in occult books. Too often occult books just give a brief overview of these subjects, and you’re lucky if they include references.
