I feel like a lot of people might think miniature building/painting could be easy - or at least quick.

It isn't.

Have you learned anything from these comments and responses you've gotten?

Like I need to know. I need to know if you've reflected at all.

This you?

Literally two comments ago you were making excuses.

The US has committed multiple genocides.

You were just indoctrinated by it's propaganda to believe they haven't.

My family became very Anti-Vax during that time. My wife and I had just had a newborn about a year in to the pandemic and demanded everyone get their vaccines before they got to be around the baby.

My parents didn't get any and didn't see the baby for a while.

Then when we did start seeing them, they had completely lost their minds. Blatantly racist, blatantly homophobic. Even when it wasn't things political, it felt like they had forgotten how to properly talk to people in an appropriate way. My mother made comments about my DAD having relations with my wife and that the baby wasn't mine.

I know they watch Fox, I know my mother watches a bunch of far right-wing YouTubers. All of it has led to them barely being functioning adults.

When I was a teen I worked as a waiter at a dirty smokehouse/bbq place.

One of the kitchen staff there would make sexual comments about me. Say things like "You're lucky you look good because you're so stupid." And would ask what kind of underwear I was wearing.

I told my parents about it, and the advice they gave me was "Deal with it. You need a job."

Within a month that kitchen staff member had started to grab me and sexually assaulted me.

I don't talk to my parents anymore.

Yeah, she leads them off the island and they become voyagers again. Her placing the shell from the sea was to imply they have returned to the sea.

I just hate that more of it goes to causing conflicts in nations thousands of miles away, instead of providing affordable healthcare for people who are paying the taxes.

People post links to those places here. That's what this person is asking.

It's because it's summer and students aren't using it to cheat on their assignments anymore.

Yeah. All the Reddit news is new news. So of course it's going to be trending - it's happening right now and people are talking about it.

I feel like I've seen a lot more posts in just the past few days since I've started coming here.
