Oh I like it. I kinda believe that to be the way of Judaism: “God” is not the good guy, and the “Devil” is actually the good guy trying to free us from servitude.

If Gargamel created Smurfette, it’s also possible he created the other Smurfs; including Papa Smurf. Maybe he created them, and they rebelled against his evil ways, or he had a master plan of some kind that they ruined and he holds a grudge for it.

Yup. Just another double standard, because lord forbid a guy have physical standards about a woman and be honest about them. 🙄

Jesus is still a bastard too.

Those commit messages though 🤣

Oh look at Mr. Big shot over here. It’s not polite to brag ya know!

I tell my kids that a) they must graduate high school, and then either go to college or learn a trade. Regardless, they need to be educated.

Neat. Thanks!

Who says they were telling us to be not afraid? Maybe they were trying to calm themselves down?

You and others are right. I shouldn’t be considering my desires above my son’s needs. That’s really all that matters.

That sucks that you’ve jumped to the conclusions you did, especially without even talking to me first. If anybody is putting the cart before the horse, I’d say it’s you.

I started writing up a long reply to defend myself, but then I realized that you’ve already made up your mind about me. I doubt anything I say would change that opinion. So be it.

I asked for advice, and you gave it. I will see if there is anything positive to glean from your response and I will see how it fits into my life.

Regardless, thank you for taking the time to reply to me. And hopefully next time, you’ll not be so ready to rip someone a new one before you take the time to understand them.

Why would their headphones be in my pockets? O_o

Have you checked the top of your head?

I did fail to mention that last night, when dropping my son off to trick or treat with her son, she invited me to go with them. I had to decline because I was taking my other son trick or treating elsewhere.

Thank you. I have considered the option you suggested. That’s mainly why I am wanting to be careful about this. I did take your suggestion about inviting her and her son to an activity with my kids. We’ll see how that goes.

While on a pedantic level it sounds confusing, if someone responds “sure thing”, they are not necessarily directly answering the original question, but more so saying “go ahead” or “do it”. It’s weird, but sometimes people answer in the affirmative despite the answer needing to be negative.

“scent”

You are braver than I am.

My question is why is this a backend universal question? This should be a per user/instance frontend solution; meaning I would curate my communities into a group on @lemmy.world and it’s unique to me.

Now I should be able to export or share my groupings if I want, and it should be read-only in the sense that if I post, I post to a single community and not the group as a whole. The only thing a backend should do is allow the frontend to retrieve posts from multiple communities in one call.

In other words, keep it simple.
