EDIT: Wasn't referring to the new movie, I haven't seen it, nor have I really seen much of the MCU, was referring to the less known one that has a Dove foundation approval for all ages, while this likely won't, same with any MCU movie, probably Given the new MCU Thor movie is out today and I...

Still trying to weed in bits, found 2 more to weed recently, but there's another issue that's come up with even starting a new inventory, since my old one has a lot of stuff I haven't removed because of selling/donating/exchanging over the last 5+ years since I made it. Obviously there are...

Been doing it on and off over the years, last time was 2020 and now I need to do it again, if only to make some money and clear out space Almost have enough space I don't need boxes for the general stuff versus the manga volumes, but it's getting trickier to weed out stuff now in terms of the...

There's honestly more praise than any major negative criticism, but it feels like most of the distaste is from a group one could call "Christian", some more infamous than others in what they're criticizing. Honestly, I'm more interested in hearing responses, though I haven't perused all the...

I've considered this for a few others in series that either got an anime (We Never Learn) or still haven't (Robot x Laserbeam), but recently with Platinum End wrapping up, I couldn't help but recall at least a few other instances I could think of. The problem remains of stereotyping based on...

Missouri teacher resigns after school district ordered him to remove Pride flag from classroom https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/education/article254077203.html No joke, teacher in Missouri resigned after they were threatened with firing if they continued to hang a rainbow flag in their...

This is more localized, since my alma mater high school made a decision to keep the mascot called the Rebel, which, while not always utilized in the manner here (there are examples of the Rebel as a Revolutionary Soldier or a cowboy styled character from what I gathered), is meant to be a...

I've brought the topic up before, but getting a perspective in regards to priorities and solutions for each of them feels like it will help immensely 1. Financial Independence-I'm working towards this with Vocational Rehabilitation, but also think I should really bring up SSI Disability...

I had a thread of this nature last year and it wasn't as productive in part because of continuing issues I recognize in terms of self advocacy as someone with a disability (though getting any kind of benefits is a whole other process versus present Vocational Rehabilitation, which I'm still not...

Buddhism is still a strong influence, but given that my general knowledge of it in contrast to my affirmation of the ideas has a big gap, I've contemplated changing for one of the labels that are in the "non-religious" category, but I'm not sure if any of them are accurate for my position...

Thought it'd be better to ask the pointed question in this particular forum, given that this would be something that I imagine isn't going to have a single answer, though from a previous discussion, there was already fragmentation even between just Christians, let alone other perspectives I got...

Purely speaking as a layperson on this, but to remotely suggest abortion is just optional or elective shows 1) your ethics are not even situational, they're purely rooted in authority instead of evidence and 2) that you don't really have any sense of compassion for the person involved that has...

Still working on the next step for Vocational Rehabilitation, which in spite of the pandemic likely restricting the state government's actions in regards to direct meetings, may still continue through the year. And my doctor was arguably right in that the "disability", at least for the purposes...

Not sure how popular it is in general, but DC's popularity with fans waxes and wanes as well and the gaming subset is probably variable as well alongside their live action and animated features. It's similar to other games, even one I played before, Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes. I downloaded it...

2 immediately come to mind for me, though 1 has a spinoff/prequel that would also be nice Arachnid and Caterpillar, written by Murata Shinya and illustrated by Ifuji Shinsen and Isuka Hokazaki/Tokisada Hayami (the latter involved after the former artist in the pair passed away) respectively...

It's an arguably minor aspect in scale, but I find it a great aspect of recent Samurai 8 chapter (35 at the time of the post) where they delve into what appears to be inspired in no small part from Buddhist cosmology, mixing it with quantum mechanics and such as well with what is being explained...

Following up on the cogency (which I had to change because I realized one preceded the other) of the "God" concept, I have to wonder if arguments in regards to the description of its qualities aren't relying on special pleading or other fallacious thinking? To say "God" is just and loving...

Following up on a topic that, in hindsight, could also just expand into 3 topics on their own about apologetics, I thought it'd be helpful to address what is probably one of my major reasons for not really possessing spiritual beliefs, particularly in God, though this criticism can apply to...

In discussions defending Christianity as true, rational or otherwise something you ought to believe, I have to wonder if many times that a person tries too hard to utilize one tactic for most skeptics they approach. The initial layer that I feel like is skipped over so often is semantical: does...

To counterbalance issues that I'll admit came across as such in the other topic, I've thought this would be a more broad notion to consider. A part of the problems in terms of my family interactions, which are positive in themselves, is that we've grown apart to a point that it doesn't feel like...
