“It’ll get better, just gotta get through the week”
I told myself the same lie, week after week, until some day I realised it wasn’t a lie anymore.
My wife gets multiorgasms almost every time.
That there’s hope for humanity…
This hit me hard.
“Flushable wipes”
I’m at an age where moist arse wipes are a godsend, and I stubbornly cling to the lie that they’re flushable and fine.
Just dispose of them in the trash
It really is bad to flush them
That there’s good and honest companies in this world.
Things are going to get easier
Treat others as you want gem to treat you
You can always trust your friends
You have to finish School else you won’t get a good paying job
Drugs are bad. M’kay?
Christmas is the holiday of love

Not really a lie, that’s pretty much forced into being true
It’s not a lie if I believe it’s true.
That ill live past 50
That anyone should be allowed to vote.
I mean, obviously I believe in democracy, don’t get me wrong… My idea is that you should have a chance to be allowed to vote. Like you have to at least pass a reading & comprehension test before you get like a voting license or something.
You don’t get to drive if you’re incapable to see the road, you don’t get to vote if you’re incapable to understand what a politician is saying to you.
I’m sorryEdit: I’m not from the USA, so I didn’t know that there was already something similar back then.
Still, I believe that basic comprehension is foundamental in the voting process and there should be a way to check it. Otherwise there is no failsafe to populism taking overYou’re probably already aware that there have been literacy requirements to vote in the past in some places in the US, but those were actually an excuse to disenfranchise black people. https://history.iowa.gov/history/education/educator-resources/primary-source-sets/right-to-vote-suffrage-women-african/voter-registration-literacy
Literacy tests were banned by the Voting Rights Act in 1965. There have been recent attacks on that law including the 2013 Supreme Court case Shelby County v Holder which overturned election oversight in jurisdictions with a history of racist disenfranchisement; and Allen v Milligan from a couple months ago was an attempt to overturn gerrymandering restrictions, but thankfully it failed. Combine that with continuing voter disenfranchisement (for example far too few polling places in Atlanta leading to black voters waiting in line many hours to vote), and there is no doubt in my mind that if literacy tests were legal again they would be used the same way they were in the 60’s.
Personally I think history has shown that we get better leaders when more votes are counted.
If you have a low IQ you’re not legally allowed to serve in the military, but you damn sure can vote for the president 😑
I’ll tell you when I discover it’s a lie.
I’m such a dumbo that I didn’t get the point of the question…
Thankyou! Was excited about if someone would get the irony :D
That woman, queer folk and PoC want too much space in this world.
That there are no obsticals for those groups, they just made them up.
I am not activly thinking that. But everytime i wish to speak my mind i am still asking myself “should i say something? Am i qualifyed enough? Maybe i get called out for being stupid 🥲”
