Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If your 'friends' don't text you, then they aren't your friends.
14·1 month agoLook man some people, like me, are just bad at staying in touch
If you don’t text your “friend”, then you are objectively not a friend; you are an “acquaintance” at worst.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The "man vs bear" "debate" is a no-win scenario
14·1 month agoIt’s a trend from a while ago; women were asking men, “If your daughter were stranded in the wilderness, would you rather her be near a bear or a man?”

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•“My body, my choice” should apply to drug use, too.
18·1 month agoWhen a parent denies their underage child, with a brain that is still developing, hard drugs I think that is appropriate parenting
I am “pro-choice” with anything as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone else (but you). From my skin inwards is my total jurisdiction; it was JONATHAN’S BODY. Not Clark, not Lois. If Jon wants to inhale an alien space narcotic or snort cocaine, that should be his right.
Again Clark and Lois violated Jonathan’s autonomy, and that was wrong, especially for Superman, who stands for “humans having free will”, and Lois Lane, a woman who worked her way up in a male-dominated environment and who fights for “truth and justice”.
Also, it’s just bad writing because Superman should have better things to do than whine and complain about how his son, who doesn’t even have powers at the time, is taking an illegal drug. Big fucking whoop.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Most people who help others are doing it as a performance
17·1 month agoHere’s a showerthought: everyone complaining about Grimreaper has the option to block them and never see their posts, but they don’t do that because Grimreaper entertains them. Thus proving Grimreaper’s point,
Fucking Thank you!!! LMAO These people could just block me.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Choosing to not to help your friends dying child doesn't make you an asshole
112·1 month agowhen Peter Parker said “I missed the part where that’s my problem”, that was meant to be a bad thing
But it’s not a “bad thing”. Some things are objectively not your problem just because you CAN help someone in need doesn’t mean you HAVE to, and it doesn’t make you a “bad person”.
Let’s be real: most people don’t help others in need even when they are able to. People who donate to St Jude Children’s Research Hospital or volunteer with homeless people do so for performative reasons or to just look good in front of someone; in the end, they are doing so for their own self-interest.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•When upper-class wealthy people don't want to date anyone lower, working, middle class people will claim "classism", but when middle-class or "normal"retail worker or janitor, no one has an issue.
14·1 month agoIf someone is 25 and still working retail its a red flag for me.
I feel like most 25 year old working in retail are doing it while they are in college studying for something (law, med, business whatever)

Off My Chest@lemmy.world•Parents who knowingly send their kid to a place where they get bullied and do nothing about it are at fault and are the worst types of people.English
12·1 month agosuperheroes are terrible because they lie to hide their identity.
I never said superheroes are terrible for hiding their identity. I said I think Clark and Lois from Superman and Lois are self-righteous hypocrites because they lie to protect Clark’s secret, but then they expect honesty from Jonathan and Jordan. If they are ok with lying, then they shouldn’t get mad when Jon and Jordan blatantly lie to their face.

Off My Chest@lemmy.world•Never ever ask out a retail workerEnglish
21·1 month agoIf you go to a Walmart, Target or any store regularly, EVEN if you are acquainted with some of the employees, it’s impossible to ask them out in general. Even if we take romance out of it and just want a friend, it’s damn near impossible.

“Those guys” are animalistic incels who can’t take no for an answer.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Never ever ask out a retail worker
111·1 month agoGood on you for becoming self aware
I’m always self-aware and can read body language, and I don’t take rejection very personally; I just walk away. If I continue going to this Walmart, I’ll wave to her, but I probably won’t speak to her unless she initiates it.
That and I try to talk to women like I would literally anyone else. Granted, I’m obviously more nervous when I talk to a woman I’m attracted to, but I don’t use pickup lines or “play the game”; I usually talk to them like a normal person.

19·1 month agoNever ask out someone while they are on the job.
This is what I said.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If God truly is ‘all-powerful’ and ‘omnipotent,’ then Jesus dying wasn’t the only way to ‘save us.’”
82·2 months agothe whole “God is all powerful and all knowing” would mean that he can stop things like children’s cancer but he chooses not to.
God is either not all powerful or not all good.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Superman/Clark Kent is actually worse than Light Yagami/Kira when it comes to lying.

This is a take…

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•"fridging" is honestly the only good motivation to become a superhero or good person
0·4 months agoSo if you lived in a superhero universe and you got powers and your best friend was killed, you would honestly use your powers to find the killer and be a hero to avenge them? Seriously?

Why?
