oh my god god god god god my dad just tried to complain about me wearing earrings with ghosts on them because they're "not very festive" so i said Well Actually ghosts are very appropriate for christmastime and he said tell you what if you can show me a single christmas themed thing that has ghosts in it i won't say another word about your fashion choices this entire holiday. i Promise. so i got him to lean in realllllll close as i opened up the browser app on my phone and slowly began to type "A CHRISTMAS CAROL" while the blood rapidly drained from his face.
"All of yours for one of ours" is a Nazi slogan basically meaning "since you killed one of us we are going to kill all of you."
That's psychotic enough, but what's worse is that no ICE agent was killed recently. You can see that on their own website dedicated to dead ICE Agents.
The closest thing to "murder" of an agent was in 2005 (I couldn't find a specific article or wiki page on the guy) and in 2011. (And there was a guy who was killed in 1905, too. Are we going to count the 121 year old case?)
And one dumbass killed themself by accident in 2021. (Again I couldn't find a specific article on them.) Are we going to count that dumbass?
Most of them died from an illness. A fuckton of them died from COVID because they ignored guidelines.
You can't support anybody who would use Nazi slogans and then cry when somebody is calling you a Nazi.
Look, you guys gotta stop saying shit like this on all of my skeptic posts. You can't tell someone "of course it's okay to believe in things, as long as you never let it affect your behavior in any way and also you admit it's not actually true."
Stand up, accept that you are one of those "mean" skeptics, and tell people to stop believing in shit that isn't real with your whole chest. Stop doing whatever this wishy-washy nonsense is. People who read their horoscope or collect crystals for fun don't need to be told that it's not real and people who genuinely think crystals cure cancer and geminis are deceitful don't need to be patted on the head and told "it's okay to ~believe~ in things!"
Interesting how tumblr liberal 'totally not atheists' utterly refuse to comprehend that many people actually BELIEVE their beliefs. Like, theyve got this idea that all religious, spiritual, or woo beliefs are just, what, LARP? Culture and aesthetic and identity utterly disconnected to belief.
It's like the whole thing secular jumblr does about religion having nothing to do with belief and everything to do with ethnicicty and culture (itself an absurd overstatement that frankly doesn't apply to a lot of Judaism much less anyone else), but filtered through a game of telephone and broadened to basically any belief.
'You atheists are so dumb, of COURSE everyone considers their spiritual beliefs to be nothing more than metaphor, aesthetic, and LARP, why are you acting like anyone BELIEVES?'
It's been said before but "ugh, you atheists are so stupid that you don't even realize that nobody ACTUALLY believes all that mumbo-jumbo nonsense, you just think they do because you think all non-white cultures are backwards savages" is uhhhhhhhh SIGNIFICANTLY more offensive than anything most atheists are saying
Ah, yes, I see you’ve taken notice of the fine knight I keep dangling in a big gilded cage above my evil throne. Quite the pretty little ornament the would be savior makes, wouldn’t you agree~?
What? No, it IS a big cage. That’s- it’s the standard size for a knight’s cage I’m pretty sure. NO I’m not going to invest in 500 square feet of dungeon, it’s ONE knight! I’m pretty sure knights live in hovels in the wild anyways which is basically the same- Look, the cage is quite literally gilded. He loves the cage! He loves obediently preening in the cage! Yeah well, when you capture your own knight you can keep it in whatever size castle you want to, but this one’s mine. Especially since you’re so obviously jealous of me and my cute and awesome knight anyway.
He can't even swing a sword around!
Can't swing a sword, doesn't have a charge to protect. Doesn't even have a horse! This is just downright barbaric.

for the record if you picked no I expect you to prove it. it is more likely that you don't know what "pronouncing things differently" means than it is that you actually say them the same way
surprising number of people in the notes saying things like "yeah they're the same, my tongue is in the same position for both of them" which is wild because I've been assuming that most people are aware that there are other muscles involved in speaking besides the tongue
for the 8% of you who claim that you say both of these words with the same consonant at the start and that you actually checked how you say them, what same consonant is it? (you should know, because you said you checked.)
(I did not say "no, and I checked" for the previous poll)
[θ] voiceless interdental fricative
[ð] voiced interdental fricative
[f] voiceless labiodental fricative
[v] voiced labiodental fricative
[t] voiceless alveolar or dental plosive
[d] voiced alveolar or dental plosive
[s] voiceless alveolar fricative
[z] voiced alveolar fricative
okay I'm realizing now I did not actually check. they are different, sorry
something else (PLEASE ACTUALLY CHECK. DO NOT ASSUME)
