Well, as it turns out, it depends on the kind of mask.

Most either do absolutely nothing, or make things worse than no mask at all

#controversial opinion but i feel that cremation should honestly be more accepted in christianity. you know “memento, homo, quia pulvis es, et in pulverem reverteris” and all that jazz. i think it would be more poetic in a sense. 

for those who are asking the latin is “remember, man, that dust thou art, and unto dust thou shalt return”

“memento, homo” is how i start my to-do lists

That’s the first I’ve heard of that Christians being against cremation. Ever.

@anti-christophobia

@ignorant-against-christians

Is that even a thing?

I’ve legit never heard of any theological argument against cremation. In fact pretty much every member of my family who has died, was cremated.

“Something something resurrection”, I’m sure.

Though, I highly doubt that God would be completely unable to repair whatever damage man has made. Especially considering He literally made man out of dust.

Cremation fell out when embalming became popular during the victorian era

As I understand it, cremation vs burial used to be all about regional resources. Some places you can't really dig a hole, and some places didn't have enough wood for fires. And since humans are creatures of tradition...

I don't know much about modern cremation, but I've heard there are some environmental reasons for it not being universal? I do know they drain blood and fluids beforehand and it basically gets washed down the drain.

Thera the deaf ferret gets a surprise!

This is what PURE JOY looks like.

His reaction reminds me so much of this meme

A reminder that antifacism is a thing you DO, not an organisation you JOIN.

Calling a hotel and telling them a KKK chapter rented their ballroom for a meeting is antifa action

Pulling down posters promoting hate groups is antifa action (and if you do, use your keys, not your hands. Some groups put razor blades behind their postings to hurt anyone who takes them down)

Addressing local tensions in your community by participating in food drives and supporting disempowered folks can be antifacist, as facist groups will use community fears to stir up hate and gain power.

Going to an event where a figure whom fascists tend to align with and peacefully protesting is antifa action, whether that speaker thinks they’re fascist or not.

It’s not a club, religion, or organization. You don’t pay dues. Being antifa means actively trying to prevent fascism from being built, usually in local ways that respond to immediate community needs. If you see ANYTHING that talks about officially joining a group or organization, it is SUSPECT.

that site is literally called “braver than the troops” and y’all don’t see that it’s making fun of antifa???

My money says that’s what plesiosaurs were like: fast underwater, extra padding for buoyancy, long neck. Look at their skeletons!

It’s just like this:

They’re basically large horizontal penguins with a long tail and spiky teeth.

OH SHIT THEY PENGUINS!!

OH SHIT PLESIOSAUR PENGUIN!!!!!!!!!

This is the inherant problem with most reconstructions. It’s just unknown how much fat the animals really had.

Dinosaurs aren’t real, its just big versions of existing animals

Change my mind

Friendly reminder that no democrat has ever advocated or defended running over protesters with cars only republikkkans have done that 😘

Why should I stop when a large group is blocking the road when that tactic is usually used to attack people?

if you block a public road, you should at least be expecting to be hit by a drunk or distracted driver. It's not safe. And everyone else is just going to think the group doing the blocking is trying to hurt them.

Boy, that sure is a bunch of completely unsupported assertions about Walmart ya got there.

Aren’t these the same folks who complain about “food deserts” in poor neighbourhoods?

And support lockdown restrictions and minimum wage hikes that screw over the little guys more than anyone else?

And claimed damages to local businesses from the riots were just “property damage”?

All of a sudden they care about the local economy and the people it affects and the burden on taxpayers? 

After two months of devastating riots that probably did more economic damage than opening shedloads of Walmarts?

It’s especially hypocritical when working-class-worm supports burning down important historical buildings that bring in local tourism revenue. Even when they’re occupied at the time.

I mean the tweet is fake as fuck. Someone cooked it up in paint so they could virtue signal and act like their woke or some shit. No surprise that wil is up there fellating himself as usual.

This is hilarious to me because in my town, Wal-Mart is one of the highest paying jobs you can get. Well besides back breaking hard labor in a factory (of which there are not many jobs). Pretty sure they pay a lot of tax $$$ to the city as well.

like lmao yes I'd rather stock shelves or work a register in the A.C. than sweat to death while moving literal tons of product in a factory.

americans think ABSOLUTELY NOTHIN of driving 7 hours. they’ll drive 7 hours just for dinner. they’ll drive 7 hours just for chips and dip

i went to england to visit the family of this boy im dating in birmingham. one of his sisters lived in manchester and his whole family kept being like we wish lila was her you would love her blah blah blah lila would just lobe you blah and I was finally like well why couldn’t she make it? everyone was like lol as we said she’s in manchester??? that’s it. i looked up the distance and it’s like less than two hours away and when me and my dude went to grab a beer later that night I was like so does Lila not get along with your parents like what’s up? again, he’s like babe I told you she’s in manchester. I was like are the villages at war????? he goes “it’s too far. this isn’t holiday.” I was like babe we’ve drivin 4-5 hours for weekend trips to the beach Im just confused- and he cuts me off and goes “that’s American me. We don’t do that here”

Tldr Europeans are afraid of roads and long distances

Seven hours puts me still in the same state

It took us over 15 hours to drive from East Alabama to the middle of Texas, and I stg half of that drive time was after we hit the Texas border.

In Orwell World, POCs aren’t illegally blocking streets - Cars are racist weapons used against “peaceful protesters”

Driver was assaulted and had gun pulled on her which is why she accelerated

Wow I’m dizzy from the spin on this fucking article

Lol so now they’ve changed the picture since the one they used literally proved the driver was the victim.

Really?  lol

Yup

Bastard had a gun

How dare you question the media’s spin on this, driver clearly should have let themselves be beaten, robbed, raped, and murdered instead of escaping.

I can’t imagine why there would be more ramming incidents during riots that have killed and harmed dozens of people.

We learned in 92 why you don’t stop for rioters

Thankfully he lived

Extremely City white people are so fucking weird they see a pic of a deer and theyre like "its an Old God, tell me the wisdom of the trees Forest Lord ... wow this is just like game of thrones" its a deer. Its a fucking stupid idiot animal it doesnt know shit

Hmm not sure about this one chief. You switch the genders and this sounds exactly like something your average Tumblr radfem would say.

Exactly that might not be his point but that’s the way I looked at it.

To be fair most radfems wouldn't leave any men out of the area of being terrible, this dude just says a bug chunk leaving room for women that aren't terrible.

As a woman, he's not wrong tho. 'big chunk' might be a pessimistic estimation but there are a lot of bad apples out there.

it seems to be concentrated on 17-25yo women. Idk what these girls' deals are, but I watch them abuse or mistreat good men, then shit talk them like they were the problem after they leave. Something about feminism RUINED these girls' ability to recognize their own terrible behavior.

Plenty of bad men too, but I see it in women more frequently in the last few years.
