As is bigotry towards Muslims Wendy P.

I don’t know personally. You’d certainly want to talk to your doctor or PT person. There’s always the potential for a hard opening in skydiving, like a whiplash. Ask to speak to one of the senior instructors where you’d go, and if they want to ask around before answering you, consider that to be a good sign. Wendy P.

Jeez Louise! Christians (even evangelical ones) are no more monolithic than liberals, conservatives, Muslims or veterans. Maybe even MAGA (though that one’s a stretch I think) Wendy P.

Everyone can see how they are oppressed, and few can see how they're doing the oppressing. It's that whole "walk a mile in another's shoes" thing, and not just because now you have their shoes and they can't run. Wendy P.

Is it worse to be gay, or to be a woman? Because either appears to be an insult Wendy P.

What’s a tweek? Is it a misspelling of tweak, or a new invention from DZ.com’s own master of the weave? And if you want to steelman his point, why not go ahead and do it? For that matter, explaining your own point besides “lib bad, conservative good,” would be helpful to his steelmanning yours. Unless, of course, all those fucking videos ARE your point, then I guess the text is just so you don’t get a warning for posting a video with no commentary. It’d be interesting to hear what you think beyond “whatever you say I’m against,”’ people might push back but they’d engage. Wendy P.

So we’ve gone and bombed Iran. Not sure whose wet dream that was, but I’m sure they’re rich and influential. I have one longtime acquaintance who said he feels safer already. Because there’s nothing like being the biggest guy in the room. At least until you remember you don’t own the house. Fuck me Wendy P.

But most Christians are also nice because it’s the right thing to do. After all, at least some traditions say whether you go to heaven or hell is predestined before you’re born. I find that most people are as good as is convenient, most of the time. So my job is to point out easy convenient things they can do… Wendy P.

Evangelicals used not to be generally political in the US. Pat Robertson decided to weaponize them after the protesting of the legalization of abortion and the Equal Rights Amendment showed they, too, could be motivated in secular matters. Wendy P.

Too much of what they’re doing is of the “it’s broken, we have a plan to fix it so you’d better trust us, or we’ll just take over” type of stuff. Which is concerning. I’d bet that Brad Lander (recently arrested NYC mayoral candidate) had two goals with his stunt; one to raise his profile as willing to make waves, but also to see if there is a new declaration from on high about what makes a candidate eligible; thereby testing the rails.

I’d ask the dentist to be sure, because everyone is different. Things like clotting issues and dry socket, how it’s healing. But if things are fine, based on when I had mine out, I wouldn’t have hesitated. Call the dentists office and ask them if there are any limitations. Wendy P.

The feeling of attack vs not attack. Because it is a feeling. Wendy P.

A friend of mine made a few jumps after a 30 year hiatus; did AFF. When they said "and you pull at 5500 feet," this notorious low puller said: "Wait -- you're serious, aren't you?" Wendy P.
-
Trust me, he's not the only one. Your parameters for "attack" are different from many people's. That's fine, but that doesn't make someone else any more wrong about it than you. Wendy P.
-
That's undoubtedly true, frankly. Wendy P.

The only real conversation I remember having is that no one gives a shit about the linked videos… Wendy P.

I'm not sure the MAGA crowd would see that as anything but a confirmation of their power, and power is the aphrodisiac. Think Kyle Rittenhouse. Wendy P.

Ah, but his family and buds are better prepared than the Brits, and they don’t care what happens to the “little people” as long as they get rich Wendy P.
