recentSloth43@lemmy.worldto [Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What hill will you die on?English264·3 months agoIroning clothes is stupid and useless and shouldn’t be a thing. I haven’t ironed any of my clothes for decades now and they never look any different than the clothes that were ironed. It’s a scam! And humanity won’t be able to progress if we keep doing it!!

But they [Palestinians] don't believe in the Torah. So, that's the reason there is not peace."10·3 months agoBut my book says it’s our land. So we should put our book and their book in a ring to fight it out. The winner takes the land. This is the only logical solution to this problem.

recentSloth43@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Saudi Arabia Buys Pokémon Go, and Probably All of Your Location DataEnglish3811·4 months agoSaudi Arabia isn’t a person. I hate it when news titles aren’t specific enough. Is it the government that bought them? A private company? Just a dude that happens to be Saudi? The implications can change drastically based on who bought it.
Also the article link isn’t working for me so all i got is the title. And as most people that’d see it, they’d also only read the title, this type of simplification can lead to a lot of misinformation. Or worse, racism, as you combine a whole country and its people to one entity which is dehumanizing. I’m speaking from experience as a Saudi person who’s always grouped with the “saudi” or "Arabic " or “brown” groups instead of another human being.
In short, news should stop generalizing and be more specific, especially in the titles, the part that most people will interact with.
recentSloth43@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Ex-believers, what made you quit your religion/cult?3·4 months agoI don’t like to say I quit, more like expanded my belief system to become a human belief system, and not exclusive to a cultural belief system.
I traveled outside my very conservative and religious country, met many different people, learned about a lot of different cultures, and their beliefs. It made me see how “limited” one type of faith can be. How blind I was to the human experiences.
So now, basically, I don’t believe there’s one answer to rule them all. And that’s the biggest change I went through outside of the religion i was raised on.

recentSloth43@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How do you bond with family members with whom you have 0 shared hobbies/interests & completely different personalities?1·6 months agoTo build a bit on this, be patient with him! Even if he keeps saying not, it doesn’t matter, he’ll probably still appreciate it. Especially in the future. And it’ll show him that you’re interested in him, even if he doesn’t outwardly show it, it’s a huge boost coming from a parent.
Definitely 2. All other answers are just plain wrong.
