AITA For Waking Up My Roommate?
It's all about perspective.
INFO: Do you lord over them like you own them? When they bring you food, do you act disgusted and just throw out away? Do you get upset if they don't wear the jewelry you buy them? Are there communication issues like do you have trouble understanding each other?
Based on your other comments, I'm going to have to assume the answers to all of these questions are "yes" so I'm going to go with NTA, they're a pussy.

Some Redditors say they're walking away after Apollo app shuts down
I deleted my 12 year 100k account at 11:59p Friday night. Had redact edit every old comment then delete them and closed the account. Some of my Google searches are still landing me over there. I don't even know what it would take to put me there permanently, again. I'm just hoping I can cultivate my experience here, enough, so that I won't have to find out.

Lemmy is more left leaning because the rights popularity seen on other social media are driven by bots that are not here.

It's a story with a good message
A guy was sitting at a bar one night. One of those dive bars where you make love to your booze and shut up. A guy in some punk clothes walks in and sits down, before he gets to say a word the bartender turns to him and says "No. Get out." The punk argues that he isn't doing anything, he's a paying customer. Bartender reaches for something under the counter and repeats himself "Out, now" and the punk leaves.
First guy turns to the bartender and asks what that was about. Bartender explains that he had Nazi shit all over his vest, iron crosses and other shit. Says you start to recognize them. It starts out nice enough, one guy comes in, he's polite and nice, so you serve him because you don't want to cause a scene, then he comes back with a friend or two, and they're fine, too. But then they bring their friends and it stops being cool all of a sudden and you realize "oh shit, this is a Nazi bar, now" when they take over. It's too late to try and kick them out at that point because they will make it a problem if you try. So you have to nip it early with the first guy no matter how reasonable he seems because the end goal of that guy and his friends is to make it a Nazi bar for him and his cohort of Nazis.

I'm not quite sure that's true. Maybe in raw numbers, but we're a living, breathing base of contributing users helping to keep a whole platform and community alive. It doesn't matter if the Federation isn't purely made up of former Reddit users as we've assimilated. Every contribution we make on this platform is one more that the last one doesn't get. Votes, posts, comments, it's all here and not there. I would very much like us to get to the size where the sports subs are active during game threads, but we're still having an impact.

I think it's actually a really good passage to show the Christian faith currently on display because of the next 2 verses
2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. 3 So watch yourselves. “If your brother or sistersins against you, rebuke them; and if they repent, forgive them. 4 Even if they sin against you seven times in a day and seven times come back to you saying ‘I repent,’ you must forgive them.”
So it's a verse about mercy and forgiveness but this person took home -checks notes- waterboarding. Sounds legit.

Seriously, though. How often do you think of the Roman Empire?
Often, but not daily. Maybe not even weekly. Certainly monthly and it's because THEY FUCKED UP THE CALENDAR. SEPT IS 7 NOT 9 ALL THE WAY UP TO DEC YOU BASTARDS. Seriously though, fuck Julius and Augustus.

Rudy Giuliani in Vile New Audio Transcripts: 'Jewish Men Have Small *****'
Just a thought here. Matt Damon is 5'10", not 5'2" so of course every Jewish dick is small if you're automatically knocking 8 inches off of your measurements.

I don't agree, but I'm objectively curious why you hold that opinion.

It really makes me cringe every time they talk about logic...

The flaw of the meme isn't that it's picking on religion, the flaw of it is that it assumes illogical views negate logical views. Believing that angels hid golden plates in New England doesn't negate good looks at a P&L in the same way that a Christian working at NASA that believes a dude rose from the dead doesn't negate good math to get a satellite into space. In the same way that me being agnostic doesn't mean I'm always logical and rational in every situation.

Yale professor: Biden's economy most successful since FDR's New Deal

That's a great argument for how out of touch the indicators they use are. Does it mean that we're in a better position geopolitically? Almost definitely. Did these indicators at one point mean good things for the working class? Probably. But now, they feel more like gaslighting that temperature taking.

Trump "may die in prison" if he doesn't strike a deal: Legal analyst
Reply in thread
He is, but also because of age. Judges and juries are very lenient on the elderly when it comes to sentencing due to prison survivability. That said, a deal is guaranteed and leniency isn't, especially when we're likely talking about white collar prison

See, this is the shit. Who are the occupiers? Palestine is a remnant of the Ottoman empire. Before that it was the Byzantines or the Romans and just about every other empire in the area in human history. Before Rome , it was the Jews. Then they lost the war and were banished from the region and scattered. It's the major reason there is NO one right answer. People going to a concert don't deserve to be brutally raped and murdered JUST as much as people trying to survive in an open air prison don't deserve to be indiscriminately bombed. That shit has been a dumpster fire for 3000 years, now all in the pursuit of power and clout. We can give a damn about people not in power, AKA the civilians on both sides.
