I played it once with friends in my 20s for fun, invited by them. Was more the hanging out that was fun, but I didn't hate it. I suppose it's also a sport you can be a bit drunk for... though I guess golf cart driving drunk might still be dangerous.

Sure, my comment doesn't cover every use case, and apologies if it sounded like I was accusing anyone who had one. I'm just saying I know my limitations somewhat helps me decide not to do certain driving, and the ability to just drive without worry might have me drive more often beyond the 25. Even my own driving would often go beyond 25, as H-mart alone would eat 25 for me, so I'd make half my trip on gas everytime.

They like the notes. They aren't as effective as they claim, but it allows them to pretend they're moderating content using it. People who agree with the nasty stuff will just ignore it; it won't change their mind.

One of the biggest weebs I know is also an avid camper. Like every vacation is hiking and camping in the wilds.

I'm having issues registering on others atm. Lemmy.ml said it was closed when I attempted. Lemmy.dbzer0.com appeared ro let me sign up, sent me a verification email, which was accepted, but then every login attempt just cyclew and reloads for me. No error message. Reset password to verify that it was an account, got email, reset password successfully, then same thing.

For something I want to be casually doing, it's kinda annoying.

Edit: dbzer0 just needed time. I saw a mention of authorization, but I guess I just assumed that would happen before the verification email. My bad.

Yeah, if it only took me 15 mins and I didn't have to drive, I'd be fine with it too. Currently my drive is about 30m outside of rush hour times, longer of course during. In addition I have to move soon, so it might go up again. That's all just wasted time.

People who have this take often feel similar about medicine, vaccines, etc. Natural remedies, essential oils, or just good old God is punishing you if you get sick. (A lot of them are hypocrites too, as they'll drop some of this stuff to save their own lives).

In houses I've been in before with similarly places bathrooms, this halfbath is generally for guests, peeing, and basic washing of hands etc. If you're going to blow it up, that's for other places.

You want everyone washing their dirty hands in the kitchen sink?

I think just "taking the red pill" is the main metaphor. It involves learning what you and the world truly are, and you can't go back to the lie. I'm def no expert though.

Burning books like this requires enough targeted hatred and a need to offend the targets. It also is usually more effective if your target is a minority (not specifically racial, just a much weaker target), as that bolsters your position of power and lessens the likelihood of retaliation.

Atheists sometimes have that much hatred, but at least where I am Christianity isn't small enough to be a minority, so the fear of backlash might be holding back some of the hatred type atheists.

Another reason may depend on why someone became an atheists. Many of us don't hate religious people directly, we just have issues with what organized religion gets away with. People like me came to this conclusion by comparing scientific evidence to blind faith. By nature, faith will be more emotional and reactionary, whereas if you come to a position after learning and changing yourself, you're more open to understanding why it's not really a good idea to hate like that.

Though I'd call myself agnostic vs an atheist.

They've both been on infowars multiple times, but some legitimate people do get on that show by accident too. Like Story Musgrave and Dr Dean Edell.
