>>12765 Okay. I'll try not to let it become a habit. >>12771 I'm playing it right now! I got some turbo cuties!
Anno
wow there's a new one already?
Anno
is this call of duty?
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
mobagay
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
the mobage
Anno
oh it's not a real game
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
it's probably the highest quality mobage i've ever seen in my life though its very impressive
Anno
should i get it then? is it actually good?
Anno
Nintendo is scary when they get serious.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12782 i would say that it's pretty good i've only played one FE game and this game is still really cool
Yuu
>>12775 All of my rolls were from the old games, but I did get this girl and she's pretty cute. I got some pegasus riders too, which is good, because I like lfying units a lot.
AnnoKirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12785 Did you see that you can increase the stars for your units? Not sure if it's all or most of them come in all rarities
Yuu
>>12787 Yeah, that's one of the reasons I'm not too sussed about rerolling. I only got one four star.
>>12789 yeah but Ika is silly about rerolling, you can't trust what he said. He rerolled Granblue for like a week straight.
Anno
Squid said it was pretty grindy. To boost the stars. So he went and did a bunch of re-rolls.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
ika is so autistic
Anno
Yeah you're going to get characters later on anyway that you're going to probably want to boost stars. It's not like there's going to be a single hero you want at max stars.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
it doesn't look grindy at all
i looked at some of them and you need two items for them and i got 5 of one of those items by clicking on a character in my main hall
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12767 missed this i can do you want to watch in like 10 minutes?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Anna and Sharena are really cute girls too
Talesof !NuKeSlvmWE
>>12793 sure, I'll just kill Velstadt in the meantime
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
I got this cute girl named Oboro and a Pegasus rider named Caeda. I don't know Caeda but I know Oboro is from the newest one. They're both 4 stars
testing i reworked how threads are fetched from the DB, it should be consistent now i.e. if someone was typing while you loaded the page, you shouldn't miss any of their words
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
So what happen? database database just threading inthe database whoo ooo
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
it's a memory it's a memory it's a memory it's a memory
also threads should load their HTML faster although probably that isn't noticeable compared to the delay of loading a billion thumbnails

Yuu
>>12854 I don't like the armor the protagonist team wears. It's way too boxy.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12857 I think it looks good on Anna. Although her armored arm looks a little big from the armor. It doesn't really look great on Sharena and Alfonse, though.
But that's okay because they're not as cute as Anna anyway!
Yeah, apparently he or she manages to stay afloat with money from Patreon? Or maybe the Patreon money supplements savings or something. Either way, Merryweather seems pretty cool and writes some good webcomics.
>>12893 yeah patreon can easily bring a four figure sum if you can advertise yourself enough and have a good product
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
the problem with patreon and of course internet in come in general, is how much it varies you really have to set a quite low "baseline" that you expect to earn monthly so that you rarely live over budget
They've got to have an alternate income elsewhere. I don't think someone could survive in Japan on five hundred a month. I don't even think seven hundred a month could cover it unless they're living particularly cheaply.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
Their goal is only 700 monthly yeah they must have some savings or income or something
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
hey mats you recently doped on codeini what does it do and how much you gotta take for effects?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
It's just a general painkiller, you don't really have to take too much for it to help with the pain but it's one of the weaker painkillers out there It kicks in pretty quickly though did you take some and it's not helping?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
just now and feeling a funny feeling in me head
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
It can dull your senses and slow your thinking a little Especially if you're not accustomed to opiates
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
it was quite expensive for finnish medicine, almost 15€ for the >>12843 in comparison, the antibiotics was about 7
Same in Florida I manage to get percocets for chronic pain though which are a lot stronger than codeine
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yeah but I mean like we didn't even have codeine in any medicine untill just recently and I think these all are imported stuff too this is from eugh sweden of all countries
rook
TN on that lean
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12921 you didn't have any opiates in your country until recently? wow
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>12925 no, of course there were other stuff but codeine was practically non-existant
oh panacod has been around for a while but it is 500/30 in terms of ibu/cod They are just damn rare, our docs don't really like prescribing potential narcotics that much I mean in general, people rarely get any that heavy medicine untill they are half-foot in the grave here.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
For example subutex listed there has gained enough fame to be memed as "Subutex Sunday"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I know I am making a mountain of a molehill, but I have lived my whole life with nothing else ever prescribed to me but antibiotics and painkillers and by painkillers I mean the basic shit
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
HOLY SHIT THE DOC GAVE ME 800mg ibuprofens i just asked for under //prescription level painkillers and expected to get the usual 600/50pills pack but he slammed me with this crap
Anno
>>12951 I can't speak for when I was a kid since I didn't pay attention to my medication back then, but I think I've taken codeine all of once. Maybe twice And that's only because my mother keeps some stored away. Pretty much whenever I need to deal with pain I just use ibuprofen or something of similar potent. But in most situations I kind of end up dealing with it. I think I've got a pretty good pain tolerance.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
ANyhow, how much does a pack of painkillers cost in the states ibuprofen or something quite normal?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>12961 You can get like 100 ibuprofen for like $10 or something >>12951 The first time you take stuff like that it can be pretty weird
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
what strenght? 100 pills of?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
200mg or something i think
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>12960 I pretty much never use painkillers unless there really is a need for them >>12971 quite the same price here the price for over the counter pks is about 0,1 to 0,5 per pill depending on str and manufacturer
Anno
Anything outside of headaches I can tolerate fine. But I'm really weak to head pain. My headaches aren't even all that intense; I just have trouble not shutting down when I get one.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
I don't really use ibuprofen so I might be wrong I just see it when I'm getting other stuff
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
some apothecharys websitei f you can view it http://www.apteekkituotteet.fi/epages/Kaupat.sf/fi_FI/?ObjectPath=/Shops/Eura/Categories/Kipu_ja_saerky/Kipulaakkeet_suun_kautta
Anno
200mg seems to be the standard strength for ibuprofen. The bottle I keep on hand has that too.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
400 is standard here pretty much I think only kids are given 200s
Anno
Geez you people.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But 600 is already prescription medicine, which is why people kinda ask for painkillers from a doc whenever they can the 600/800/1000 are bit cheaper, since you can just eat half a pill or third a pill for headache
I got 600s when I went to visit bout the tooth a month ago and now I have 800s guess I am quite good in terms of painkillers for several years now
Anno
Extra strength is 300mg here. SUPER STRENGTH is 400mg.
Anno
Though actually. I guess whenever I take ibuprofen I'm always eating two tablets at once anyway. So I'm technically taking 400mg, hah hah.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
these were 25 cents a pill, but since I will never prolly take a 800 as a whole they drop down to 12 cents as 60x400
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Hmm, I think a part of finnish culture shows up in our painkillers
AnnoTN !PcAPtAiNJo
halp, I come up daily with a "this I will do/watch when I am out of c/o and have booze" the list is like 100 entries, but you can't do all of that in one or two days
Anno
Use dice and pick at random.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
But I think I might carry with this rewatch karas that is one of my favourite animus

kimi no na wa in April i hear
Anno
Yup yup. There's a screening in February here for TIFF, but the tickets are already all sold out.
But there's also now a 720p hardsubbed rip out that's pretty decent. Combined with the three times I watched it on the plane back from Japan I've now seen it five times. Save me.
Anno
Also the Japanese BDs aren't out until October, so there's a long, long time until good rips are out. ;_;
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
was that the bodyswap animu?
Anno
Yeah, the latest Makoto Shinkai work. It's a really, really, really good movie.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
never heard of that guy
Anno
Five Centimetres per Second, Garden of Words, Voices of a Distant Star, etc. He's done a lot of good movies but they never really hit off in the way Kimi no na wa has.

the costs that went into this game probably rival a 3DS game's tbh

Well it was bound to react to the so called "muslim ban"
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>iran dropped the dollar haha
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
oh yeah roguePOTUSstaff said that trump was looking for a way to force iran into doing something that would allow us to justify an invasion
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Did iran even do any dollar trade? They traded oil to russia and china in either gold or their currencies without ever going to dollar
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
What is with US and iran? this is like china obsessing over bolivia or russia wanting to slap malta into new atlantis

>>13162 I don't take TOO much stock into what RPS says. None of it is unlikely but I don't pay much attention to its severity.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13166 Yeah, me neither. Got to take it with a grain of salt, but they were right about the SCOTUS pick at least. They could have just gotten lucky because it had been narrowed down already, though.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Trump is crazy but even he is not crazy enoigh to invade a country which has a defensive pact with both russia and china.
Koi-
The problem with rational thinkers is that they think they can out think the irrational.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Yeah, but this is not just irrational this is genocidal to wards human race.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13168 probably wouldn't be outlandish for russia to ignore the defensive pact but china would probably have a problem with it
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>13171 Nope Russia has too much already at stake in the middle-east even their fleet intervention during the early syrian crisis was a huge gamble from putin and it paid off Reminder that SYRIA too has a defensive pact with russia, which is why russia sent out its black sea fleet during the intended obama intervention.
and while 10 years ago russia wouldn't have mattered that much they have recently modernised their army into quite a powerhouse. Though their fleet is still lacking, so they can't really match US outside of mediterraen and the baltic sea

>>13170 Well, it's not like anyone will stop him until after he does it. "Free speech" and what not.

This roll thing. When does it happen? Is it in the Prologue part 2? Because I got Virion Is that the roll? Because if so, I should reroll like right now. Virion is pretty cool though.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13172 yeah but you're assuming there is a chance trump will do something russia finds unfavorable to them
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
i.e. if trump is doing something he probably has putin approval
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I think trump will actually carry on with "mend russian relations" also amusingly, russian internal economy is currently booming because of the sanctions. Many industries they didn't have in their domestic market have now become big economic drivers, like milk and meat industry, which they previously imported. They even have a problem of rubble becoming too strong for international trade.
Let's see the first set as Nowi, Florina, Nino, Matthew, and Wrys the other one has... ah, they have all the same ones in the bottom? Just the top ranks are different. Hm. I GUESS I'll roll Legendary then

TN !PcAPtAiNJo

Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
no lol people weren't taking taxis or ubers or lyft to the airport
Koi-
People don't take taxis to go to the protest, you take the Air Train or you drive. The Taxi Service had a strike Uber dropped prices in return, that's a strike break.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Air Train sounds cool as fuck
sk
I still think it's retarded to go "These guys disabled the automatic system making all rides right now really FUCKING expensive and earning them massive profit every time anyone uses their service. They're CAPITALIZING ON THIS" "These guys however, skin you alive as usual so they're the good guys."
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
because they did it in order to gain ADDITIONAL profit and therefore were CAPITALIZING on it
while the other guys continued normally and donated large sums of money to the people that were helping the people the protest was happening over
Koi-
>>13362 Probably because you don't value the efforts or purposes of the strike itself. >>13366 This isn't plausible unless they turned off that system for an extended period outside of the protest time or in many areas where the protest isn't happening. Intent is important.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>13364 Well both me and SK are nationalists so fuck dem residents
sk
>>13363 Or they did it because their system was currently at a fucking 700% markup due to the fucked circumstances
Though how has it evolved is it still blocking double citizenship and shit? and seriously, what was he thinking. Had he just given travel ban to the citizens of said countries, henceforth of that day, no visas issued to them.
It would've been quite smooth, with just the usual protesters going about but once he blockaded green carders and double cits...
sk
>>13364 I don't really give a shit either way about the protest, I just don't think lyft continuing to give rides, but for higher prices, makes them any sort of good guys in this What, it's not breaking the strike as long as you charge EXACTLY WHAT YOU USED TO?
Koi-
Dropping Uber for Lyft has nothing to do with Lyft and everything to do with uber. Yes. Exactly. If you change your pricing to attract during a strike, or if you push increased traffic in the area of the strike in order to fulfill the need of the people there, you are strikebreaking. Because you are willfully capitalizing off of those who would be affected by the strike for your own gain.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13369 but the problem wasn't that people gave rides
you seem to be focusing on the concept of "giving rides" which isn't important

>>13371 Yeah excuse me for focusing on the thing they did that COULD be considered breaking a strike Which is what is being said about them from every place I look
If it's strike breaking to charge less, it's strike breaking to charge the same, because what you're doing when you're striking is 'not working' And a taxi's job is the same as an uber, picking people up and putting them somewhere
>>13380 you do know some places might spin the story differently
Koi-
>>13381 Yeah like in sk's mind but that's not how strike breaking works. If someone saw the taxi service on strike and decided to call an uber because they have uber and uber shows up and everything's normal that's whatever. If their phone goes off and says "SURGE PRICING IS OFF! LOW PRICES" because there's money to be made off of a strike happening That's a break
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
I know how strikes work and shit but what I mean here, is some idiotic "news"outlets might try to claim it is strike breaking. >>13382 also that is not really strike breaking, just profiteering and how you feel about profiteering is upt o you, but yeah PRofiteering from a strike is always a bitchy thing to do, no matter what kind of strike and how you feel about the causes of said strike.
sk
So would it be strike breaking if one taxi company continued to operate exactly as usual? Surely not, they're charging the same
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
another issue is that uber did that during a strike that was caused by trump and therefore the CEO profited off of a crisis that he was considered partially responsible for while lyft is not connected in such a way
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Anyhow it is, the whole "letäs try to profit from this" should've been shot down by any guy with a brain. The climate being what it is over there, it was guaranteed that such a move would result in an uproar.
Koi-
>>13384 Well, it was a taxi union. So if you were in the union, and the union called a strike, and you kept working yeah.
sk
>>13387 Yeah but if one company just didn't, they wouldn't be breaking the strike, right? Because they're charging the same
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>13388 if the company or company's workers are in the union then it is breaking
That is why uber is so hated in every country by the traditional taxi they aren't in the union usually
Koi-
>paying dues to old people hahaha, break shit and fail fast - Silicon Valley tryhard
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Finnish taxi union outright banned uber
sk
>>13390 So if they aren't, it's fine as long as they charge the same
Koi-
Generally, but there's still intent going on. If you start going to the airport because of it, then you fucked up. Actually, now that I think about it, I think I'm wrong about something, hold on. Oh, no, I'm not. nevermind
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
For example when our postal office workers went on strike and deliveries didn't get delivered the other companies started advertising their delivery services and even gave special offers for it
as they have nothing to do with postal unions and shit, they weren't strike breaking or anything just profiteering Now some frowned upon it but most of population went "well atleast I can get my shit delivered" So in that case, capitalising on strike didn't get punished by people
Kirara☆
What matters is that Uber did something dumb and the market punished them
Samurai !KW2DbpWwls
the animation for these twirling shrine maidens is too clean i think there's some CG going on
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>13397 they analysed the market wrong pretty much I guess they thought that the amount of people who would appreciate their service(profiteering) would be larger than the uproarers
>>13425 I'm taking what's mine I was perfectly happy with my first pull but the game gave me an error that wouldn't let me play any more so I had to restart if I'm going to be forced to restart then I'm going to cheat to get what I had
>>13450 It's really hard to know but probably the first hour or so But the price on the first day will probably be volatile People will buy early in bulk and try to sell later for quick profit I think So the price will probably dip throughout the day
Anno
First hour might be hard if they open at normal start-of-the-workday hours. Maybe if I stay up all night for it, hah hah.
Kirara☆
Yeah. I'm not really sure about Snapchat's profit capabilities are as a company though I don't know enough about the product to say anything about like really long-term performance But it's probably profitable in the short-term to buy and sell

Kirara☆
>>13531 Yeah, but in Florida we have separate agencies for fish/wildlife and for the environment I'm not sure if that separation exists at a federal level or not
When it comes down to funding, you take what you can get where you get it. If the fish agencies don't want you, go to the enviro ones
Kirara☆
And the agencies can't even announce that there are funding cuts So they're catching everyone by surprise and nobody knows what's going on or what might be on the chopping block

>gee whiz it sure would be terrible if people started rioting all the time and i had to declare martial law and enforce the law using the military! teehee pero!
Considering every voice in favor of it is coming from the left, I'd say there's a good to fair chance this is just antifa like usual
This isn't some new thing. This is what antifa have been about since their creation. This is their own stated way of doing things. Opposed fascism NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
is it strange that the group that benefits the most from something terrible happening would disavow that terrible thing happening while the group that supports it would cheer it on?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13777 funfact: all of this antifa stuff didn't exist in the united states until recently and yet they're so numerous

Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
everything about them is extremely suspicious
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
>>13780 are you saying these people all have been organizing for two years in complete secrecy
I'm saying antifa have always been numerous, but have lacked targets
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
they haven't though there's no evidence that suggests antifa has ever been numerous in any way they weren't numerous during the election for example?????????????
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
What? There's video footage of them threatening journalists before the election
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
i don't see how threatening journalists is an anti-fascist activity when journalists are anti-trump(fascist)
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
Why does it have to be anti fascist? This is antifa They ARE fascists
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
i think you're getting super hung up on the idea that they HAVE to be antifa and not considering other possibilities there's very little evidence suggesting this is all legitimate
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
I mean they could just be right wingers who are willing to go to jail in a false flag operation definitely That happens all the time, Alex Jones
But let's for a moment consider the possibility that the guy beating a Trump supporter with a pipe DOESN'T support Trump himself.
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
funny how there are reports that these people getting arrested make bail quickly and easily it's almost like someone is funding them it's almost like they're mercenaries

Have you seen an actual source or is it coming from "reliable, unnamed sources"?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
just people saying that they are seeing it happening about as reliable as every other piece of information we have about them unfortunately
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
How do you see people make bail
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
you watch them leave a police station after being arrested for a violent crime
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
And you know their bail was a significant amount, one it would take a billionaire rather than parents to pay... How?
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
The bail could be anywhere from $500-10,000 depending on how much they did They're probably all being charged with rioting too which is higher bail than simple assault and they probably got felony assault which i guess means maybe $25,000 or more bail? bail is hard to predict
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
That's a lot of probably for a situation that could actually be as simple as "oh, we got the wrong dude because all of them were wearing masks"
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
at the very least everyone arrested wearing those masks would have gotten rioting i think
Kirara☆ !Sh0sAiDORU
lol google says felony rioting bail is usually like $500,000
sk !9kvMaEA9QI
Well, I'll wait and see, but if that's actually true it's super suspicious

>— Wine and liquor: Canadians get taxed on imports of U.S. alcohol upon returning from U.S. trips, the report says. "This inhibits Canadians from purchasing U.S. alcoholic beverages while (travelling)." To boot, most provinces restrict sales of wine, beer, and spirits to provincial liquor boards, which have a monopoly. B.C. and Ontario also have grocery-store restrictions.
This is from a US federal document put together after consulting American companies. Are they really complaining about the liquor control monopolies here.

Is the dakian army using fucking MUSKETS?
Anno
>— Cloud computing: The Canadian government wouldn't allow American cloud-computing services to compete for a contract to store federal data, like emails. The cited reason was national security. The report says that, under such logic, U.S. companies could be frozen out of all public-sector work — one-third of Canada's market. After the fiasco with national security emails last year I don't know if I'd want American cloud-computing services storing our federal data anyway.

Wow scandis+finland all have practically "no tariffs on private persons doing private stuff" when moving across borders Similiarly, you can practically bring unlimited amount of booze from estonia to funland, with no tariffs as lon as you can sufficiently prove, that it all is "for your own use"
Anno
>— Supply management: Canada limits imports of dairy, chicken, turkey, and eggs. The report says U.S. imports above quota levels face big tariffs — 245 per cent for cheese, 298 per cent for butter. "(This) inflates the prices Canadians pay for dairy and poultry." >— Retail: Canadians have stricter rules on what they can bring home from a vacation duty-free. They also are allowed to buy far less online duty-free from abroad. Canadians pay a customs fee when importing anything over $20 from online purchases — for Americans, the limit is $800.

also it is not that you have to pay for the tariffs the company offering the delivery from say germany to funland, can also pay the tariffs as long as someone pays them.
so case 1 I go to germany, buy 100l of beer and then come back only pay to german booze store and no one else case 2 I call german booze store and order 100l of beer funland impliments tariffs

And I do not what any Christian, but both lestadiolais- that evankelisluterilaistaustainen.The most important gift I received from my family, have had freedom of choice, a spiritual self-determination. Well, I practiced self-determination undeniably commendable.However, one thing has not changed in all these years of my life why not: my faith in God has remained constant over time. It has not changed at any time or place of the form. wups >I am a Christian and a Jew. And not just any jew, but a Yemenian jew. I am a brown Jew, just as Jesus was.

welp now after fixing it up a little bit
"I am a Christian and a Jew. And not just any jew, but a Yemenian jew. I am a brown Jew, just as Jesus was. And not just any Christian, but both conservative babtist and evangelic lutheran Christian.The most important gift I received from my family, has been thefreedom of choice, a spiritual self-determination. I practiced that self-determination undeniably commendably. However, one thing has not changed in all these years of my life: my faith in God has remained constant over time. It hasn't changed in form or shape at any point."

basically the important part is the first >christian and a jew the fuck you smoking?
Kirara☆
Yeah haha you can't really be both
I mean technially, Orthodox consider you a jew if you're born a jew and convert But if you converted, you wouldn't consider yourself a jew Sounds retarded to me

Here is another good writing from the author "We must realise the whiteness of finnish society, only then can we be rid of the structural racism"
I think understanding how a society is white-oriented is a good starting point for changing that though.

Hey imats did you see Rubin's thing with Glenn Beck? It sounds stupid, but it was actually pretty interesting
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Here
"This observation leads to the root of racism. I and people like me represent the normal, others are the exceptions. In Finland, the whiteness is the norm, other skin colours are the ethnics. Hubara has an umbrella term for the others: brown. Brown here doesn't refer to the skin colour, but experience of being strange, that you don't just fill the cup. Brown is a long list: blacks, Arabs, Hispanics, Asians, Roma, Sami, Jews, Russians, Estonians ..." I just love these identity politics

>>13983 yeah and jews don't believe in christ so how can you be of a religion that doesn't believe in christ and at the same time say you are a christian?
sk
>>13992 >russians But russians... russians are white
Again, I think he means jew as in "the nazis would put me in a camp", not jew as in "I read the torah every night before bed"
Kirara☆
Jew isn't race, it's religion and ethnic group If you don't have Jewish ethnic traditions and heritage, you're not part of the ethnic group Being a religion other than Jewish excludes you Have to be religiously Jewish or secular

This is all too weird for me

Nothing about that is racist though. That western societies are white-oriented isn't an overstatement or anything ridiculous. And understanding that is important in learning how to remedy those problems.
One last paste from that author "She herself is not a prejudice-free zone. Lion-necklaces frigthen her. Hubara thought her Finno-Swede coworker was an extremely rich and master of drinking songs, once they got closer the truth was revealed to be different "It was embarrassing for me, but it didn't have a power-structure. My co-worker was never denied of a job or an appartment, for example, just because he was a Finno-Swede." Hubaran believes that racism isn't only a problem for individuals and it can't be outsourced. "It's avoiding responsibility to say, that the poor "rednecks" are the racists. The problem isn't the Right-wings, nazies or internet hatespeech. The problem is institutional racism and that whiteness isn't recognised or talked about."

"i was not discriminating by having prejucide s, because the person I had them towards was WHITE"

I just find it ridiculous that the paper decided to hire a collumnist based practically on "well she talks about stuff and her qualifications is 'i am a jew,christian,yemeni,finnish,something"
I thought we had avoided this crap, but I thought wrong. Then again, 50% of the capital regions churches are going against the Archbishop, and will agree to church-wed gay couples. Not a sin in a way, as love conquers, but to just rebel against the archbishop's ruling in a time of crisis is idiotic if you ask me. Some solidarity as an organisation and actually have debates and discussions, instead of just "lol I do it my way"

Also I don't see the point of gay marrying being that big a civil right they already had an equilevant thing calles "registered relationship" which had identical rights and benefits as a normal marriage had aside from adoption rights, but that could've been easily dealt with. And they did have adoption right, but it was a harder process for them compared to a normal married couple.
So I don't get why the whole gay marriage was such a big issue here, when in all but the name it already had been a thing for longer than I have been alive. >left

What a convenient excuse. "People are doing things I don't agree with! It must be the work of that dastardly left!"
For starters I think there's a lot of people who would take issue with marriage not being available to gay people. Even if there are functional equivalents, the aspect-->>14054 Fuck off and let me finish you twat.
Marriage is important to people far beyond the legal definition of it. The action is a spiritual communion and denying that to people is a pretty solid asshole move. Especially on the grounds of "oh we don't believe it is religiously acceptable."
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Yeah but why care about what it is called? Married or registered, the same institution does it anyhow.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>14053 Yeah but what state gave them was state marrying not church weddings churches can decide on their own do they want to marry gay couples or not that is their business and their business alone, state has nothing to do with it. A religious organisation could've been marrying gays here for a century and the state couldn't have done anything about it
Also, amsuingly the people who now are in a registered relationship, will get fucked over in march, because that status is VOIDED, so they will actually have to either do fuckton of paperwork to change their status to married or just go get married
Basically, I do support gay marriage if the state does it, but people can't force a religious organisation to follow through with it that is for them and their members to decide.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Also amusingly if you are a man and are sharign an appartment with a woman, and apply for any kind of state beneficies you are legally in a relationship with that woman even if you are a gay man and the woman is lesbian A fun oversight that has never been fixed

religion is a way of regulation and christian church has a history of suppression anyways. If they adopt every new fashion, then there is no regulation at all.
