@BalooUriza@social.tulsa.ok.us @angiebaby@mas.to I think prayer has the same benefits as meditation. Religion can help people and is only harmful because some people are awful, grifters etc.

@knowprose @jascha Not exactly, for example, medical research is riddled with misogyny. The bias towards white males in scientific studies does lead to conclusions which are incorrectly applied to the whole of humanity.

@BalooUriza@social.tulsa.ok.us @Kierkegaanks@beige.party @maxleibman@beige.party @tayfonay@beige.party I was misunderstood that way myself, and was too innocent to understand 😇

@maxleibman@beige.party @tayfonay@beige.party For Victorian ladies?

8) My advice to any #woman, especially #autistic #ADHD #audhd #neurodivergent is to know you are #vulnerable. I did not. Learn #RedFlags & what healthy relationships look like. I was love bombed & experienced sexual abuse in my relationship long before we were married. Share the full truth with trusted people outside your relationship. Learn what #PityTrips & #DarkTriad personality traits are & avoid those who use them! If anything feels wrong, say no, even if you have to call the police.

@alissaazar Excellent photo framing the 'fuck ICE' graffiti with the dildos.

@davidnjoku@mastodon.world Lucky child. She probably won't become a MAGA, since she'll have learned critical thinking.

@ammaratef45@social.coop Maybe we can all move to the isles of Scilly :)

@TarkabarkaHolgy Ancient history, I hope

@2legged@mastodon.ie New labour obviously have had no principles for a long time, and apparently no new ideas either. I wonder what they're getting from Israel for manufacturing another antisemitism farce?

@RickiTarr How about 5 people I pleasured? :D

@brianbilston Hmm, well I happen to like weeds and rebel words which grow where they shouldn't.

@_thegeoff As an English person, I'm not trying to be 'British' either. I don't believe in it, or any other relics from when we were colonisers. If we want close ties with our neighbours, those relationships should be based on mutual respect, as equals. And BTW let's not forget that the English are absolutely capable of shitting on their own native languages too (the ones without army and navy - yep, the dialects).

@PetraPhoenix@beige.party Oh sorry, I think I caused some confusion. They actually make clothing now too. That's what I was referring to, with the bamboo-type fabric. The brand is called snag tights, and they do still make tights too lol.

@PetraPhoenix@beige.party I like snag tights. Their best fabric is the bamboo, so soft and smooth, a little stretchy. Idk if they call it wood pulp now or ecovero, something like that, but its the same thing. You could try them and then have 90 days to return. Their tights etc aren't itchy either, I know a few people with sensory needs who swear by them.

@Michigander Evolved to perfection :)

@RonSupportsYou@mastodon.social @renewedresistance@channel.org Remembering when people were telling me that trump 2.0 wasn't going to be any worse than trump 1.0. Well people, I'm yelling you that it will get even worse than this. Literal race to the bottom here. These people want to make the apocalypse happen, and have the power to do it. Nothing will stop them, unless the people descend on them en mass and refuse to cooperate in society until they're all ejected. The longer this goes on, the less likely it stops

@mrcopilot@mstdn.social @mattblaze@federate.social Straight out of the Putin playbook.

@amiserabilist@beige.party True. Plus they almost elected a woman. Their tiny brains have exploded.

@bloor The research odysseys are what do it for me. That and the fact that I procrastinate uncontrollably when faced with boring parts. Part researched or completed projects abound, to the level that I think I would now qualify as a minor hoarder!

@fedilore@mastodon.social How about 'no support of regimes which have been declared as genocidal and committing multiple war crimes by reputable agencies'? 'No support for war criminals with international arrest warrants outstanding?' Zionists are bad on a scale surpassing most crappy regimes, which is why people are so virulently against them (nothing to do with their religion).

@LukefromDC @AnnieBuddy @heidilifeldman Sometimes when the Nazis occupied other countries they'd arrive in a new place and be given notes from local people anonymously snitching on each other. So some people have always been mean and amoral (to say the least).

@maxleibman Boost cool ideas

@ErikUden Meta-parasite

@bit @alissaazar The bargain bucket Gestapo *are* in need of a little charity help

@knowprose @jascha Science is only as unbiased as the researcher, and given that most people (even women) carry unconscious bias against women, there is little chance that this issue will be addressed so easily. The same goes for racial bias. Knowing about the problem doesn't alleviate it, huge changes must be made, studies replicated, new investigations carried out. Misogyny can be overt or not & through direct and indirect means. Neglect of female health is misogyny & wasn't accidental.

@randahl The cult of hypocrisy

@aram@aoir.social Are they implying that all antifascists and anarchists are violent?

3) I was so terrified during the 'interrogation' eg. when the men asked me 'who would come after you if you disappeared'? that I invented family links to a terrorist organisation. I think that's what saved me from being abducted. Due to the extremely sexual overtone to their questions, I believe that the leader's objective was sexual exploitation or sex trafficking. #SexualExploitation #Sextrafficking #Abduction #Coercion #SaintJohnNB #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick #Canada #MeToo

6) I had financially supported my partner for a year when we'd lived in Europe. We were getting married so I could sponsor his UK visa. I want people to understand how these gangs work - it's not just women being dragged off the street & abducted! I was vulnerable & targeted due to being AuDHD, having no family support, being exploited already by my partner, being overseas alone. #SexualExploitation #Sextrafficking #Abduction #Coercion #SaintJohnNB #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick #Canada #MeToo

@antimnguyen Vibe printing

2) I think I was targeted in advance because my fiancé was a weak man who was very much in awe of the leader of these men and tried to impress him. He'd previously been a drug mule for the leader, who had a grow op (illegal back then). Afterwards, I'd asked my partner why he'd set me up like that and he said 'I wanted to give you the choice'. He looked extremely guilty & then cried. #SexualExploitation #Sextrafficking #Abduction #Coercion #SaintJohnNB #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick #Canada #MeToo

@amydiehl@mstdn.social Will age like milk :D

@stavvers Dick is an old nickname for Richard.

5) After some time I was doing a fawning trauma response, which is why they told me things to try to persuade me. This happened only after they'd terrified me and interrogated me to try to get kompromat to blackmail me into going. They asked me about 50x what drug dealers I knew. I talked on & on, my whole life & childhood, waiting for my partner to come & save me. He didn't come. #SexualExploitation #Sextrafficking #Abduction #Coercion #SaintJohnNB #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick #Canada #MeToo

@calcifer@masto.hackers.town The internet just happens by itself

@csolisr Are the people who enjoy it all narcissists?

@travis_nice@bne.social Windowscreen

7) What's all the more shocking in my case is that the ~30 people at the reception (a party at a large apartment in Saint John) all had seen the leader. He was strange - very flat affect. Everyone had been warned not to look at him. People were scared of him, but noone would tell me why, they only widened their eyes and shook their heads. They all saw me being 'taken away' and did nothing. My mother in law did come to us after hours, when I was pretending everything was OK so I could escape.

@peter@thepit.social The last part! Omg, the lack of self - awareness! The levels of delusion! This is a cult.

4) My worst fear is that other women could be held deep in the woods even now. The leader was a doomsday prepper with a secret offgrid place hidden in the woods, possibly near #Fredericton. I was told that if I went to this place, I would have to go that night and could never leave. I later found out these men were #bdsm #dominant but with no safe words or consent. #SexualExploitation #Sextrafficking #Abduction #Coercion #SaintJohnNB #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick #Canada #MeToo #FrederictonNB

@knowprose @jascha As I said, replication of biased studies with a representative study population & disregard of older biased studies. Deliberate new research ~ women & other marginalised groups. Scientists & medical staff being forced to recognise the seriousness of past & present bias, so the issues cannot be downplayed any longer - meaning oversight from a body with the power to effect change globally (punish financially). Not likely, especially in the trump (white male superiority) era.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange LLM's are the modern butlers, using flowery BS language. Anyone remember Ask Jeeves?

@disisdeguey@expressional.social How the hell did refusing to vote for Harris help Palestinians? You got played and you made everything much worse for Palestinians, Americans and in fact the whole world, excepting some obscenely rich people and religious nutters. Now you seem to have learned nothing from your mistakes. Do better, or we'll all be totally screwed - if we aren't already.

@streetartutopia@mastodon.online Blinded by his beliefs

@stux@mstdn.social In Ya pan surely?

@jeffowski@mastodon.world A lot of overlap between the MAGAts and incels. Never seen boobs + low empathy.

@kevinrothrock@infosec.exchange The white house only produces useless bullshit.

@disisdeguey@expressional.social That's not an answer. You allowed the worst choice for Palestinians (and the world) to be elected because you refused to vote for a black woman who was less bad for Palestinians (and the world). The worst part? You've apparently learned nothing and would do it all over again.
