TET: Surfin' Surfin' WIND Surfin'!

[Ordenburg]

Really? Last I checked, you told us twice that you were leaving. This is akin to a movie bad guy saying, "I'll shoot you! I'm not afraid! I'll do it! I'll do it this time! I'll do it this time!"

I never said I was leaving. I said I was leaving that particular tangent. Can we like talk about what everyone had for dinner or something?

Sure, before I think myself into a mess again.

Well I had steak with a side of sliced onion, cucumber, mozzarella, and tomato.

[Coffee Cakes]

Social Justice Warrior maybe?

That's the one.

Some of the stuff they come out with is funny. Your weight being the 2nd most unchangeable genetic trait after height is my personal favourite.

Breaded pork cutlets, corn, and angel hair pasta.

Their hearts are in the right place, it's just that many of them are... overzealous.

[Arglorand]

A Wichita school would have you read 1984? That's strange.

I was originally going to read The Diary of Anne Frank, but then I realized how utterly boring reading some random girl's diary really is.

Hey.

I liked Anne Frank's Diary.

If nothing else, it felt extra cathartic because of, well, you know, what eventually happened to her.

[Grenartia]

SJW?

Social Justice Warrior maybe?

Sounds about right.

Social Justice Warrior maybe?

*cringes*

They say some good things. But it doesn't seem to help.

The difference between an SJW, and a person who advocates for social justice is very much comparable to the difference between a feminazi and a person who supports gender equality.

SJWs and feminazis both have goals that seek to change a wrong, but in such a way that it creates ANOTHER wrong.

[Seitonjin]

*cringes*

They say some good things. But it doesn't seem to help.

From the vibes I've seen, the intentions are good, but the methods could be better.

It's a matter of walking the talk or some shit like that.

Oh, they are all talk, no go.

[Gallup]

I had to read 1984 for school. That's why I read it first.



I have a feeling I'll like it, seeing as how I really liked 1984 overall.

Goddamn typos.

Well, Animal Farm is almost like a predecessor to 1984 in my interpretations.

It's also much better. 1984 is good, but not as good.

[The Truth and Light]

Yay. ^-^

That sounds really yummy, actually, especially the tomato. I'm about to have a pizza myself, looking forward to it. It's not as fine as your dinner sounds, though. :b

[Luveria]

I often wish someone else would make those decisions for me, because I would prefer someone makes the right choice for me and I have no choice in the matter, than to have the freedom to make the wrong choice on my own.

It's not so much about the choice being right or wrong, it's more about not having to take all the responsibilty for it. My problem is I see so many choices that I get overwhelmed and don't know what to do, so I end up most of the time doing nothing, because there are too many thing I want to do.

The kind of choices I struggle with aren't what you'd classify as right or wrong, but decisions in how I should spend my personal time.

You went too deeply into my inadequate choice of wording.

It's about not wanting the responsibility I'm forced to have.

Hey.

Dat not cool bro.

[Belligerent Alcoholics]

Maybe that's just what the Lord had in mind for you?

I believe so.

You'd do it better than any of the yutzes I see in the state houses or in Washington... which, of course, means you're unelectable.

It's great that George points that out, because they often get drowned out by the likes of Westboro. The campus minister at my alma mater (not a priest, thanks to the priest shortage) has done his best to make that Newman Center a place where LGBT+ Catholics feel totally welcomed, at least among that congregation.
That said, I understand why so many of our LGBT+ brothers and sisters turn away from faith. I wish they wouldn't write it off completely, but I do get it.

I wish they wouldn't write it off either, but sadly, to them, it seems really the only option at times... and who could blame them?
If all you're hearing is an echo chamber of "God hates you" why would you believe after hearing it for so long?

That blows in so many ways. Especially since a lot of the devoutly religious people I've met through the Church have, whether they know it or not, helped me to be more comfortable in my own skin.

Whoever that is, he's doing it right.

That would be Vellosia. He's really a fascinating person to talk to.

How often does he come around?

That's the opposite of what society would have you believe.

That is the opposite for sure, but that's why I get a weird sort of joy out of it, if that makes sense.

I sort of get it. When you're bucking the apparent trend, it helps to know that you're not alone.

Yeah, I'd rather not see a return to the Wars of Religion either.

And agreed. Religious war is stupid.

I never understood why people kill over that.

SJW?

Social Justice Warrior maybe?

Precisely this. The bunch that actually sets the push for real social justice back decades whenever any of them speak.

This is my first real dinner after a week of camping so it might as well be a good one, yesterday it was just something quick, too tired all day to bother.

They make the deceased human rights activists all roll in their graves.

I've been eating light all the time myself. Too little money at the moment to eat anything extravagant.

Hey.

Dat not cool bro.

Hence why I didn't do it.

Their hearts are in the right place, it's just that many of them are... overzealous.

And a lot of them have mis-information or are just plain ignorant about other things. A lot of the thin privilege campaigners refuse to accept that losing weight is possible, because they want the world to accommodate to them.

More like they're a big part of why people want to undo their work.

I'm nit-picky like that.

[Belligerent Alcoholics]

Mmm, chow time. Be back soonish.

They flaunt their over sized zeal everywhere.

A good trait to have.

[Grenartia]

I believe so.

Indeed.

The only way I see to actually elect myself is to put on a front. Which I'm not comfortable with.

I think the issue in that side of it is less the ones that refuse to accept that losing weight is possible and more the ones who refuse to accept that losing weight is a thing someone can want to do and that can come from a genuine desire to, you know, be physically healthier.

Unless it was my diary, assuming I kept one.
