No offense, but your comments come off as kind of edgy and from someone who sounds like the most exotic thing they've eaten is pineapple on pizza.

It's more than one time. A good number of churches actually run soup kitchens, donate to those in need, and are inclusive to all. I'm not religious, I just feel like these kinds of churches aren't as well represented in media. That being said, just like people, churches can be as charitable as they are intolerant.

Is it though? I feel like us millennials aren't any better for watching shit like Charlie the unicorn, annoying orange, salad fingers, jackass, and other disturbing or brainless content.

Not saying skibidi toilet is a great show for kids, just saying that we weren't any better and I feel like we are encroaching on boomerism when we gatekeep kids these days for watching almost the same trash we did as kids.

It really depends on where you live. $200 doesn't get you that far in places like Manhattan or San Francisco. Especially if you're cooking for every meal for more than one person for a week.

'If you think America is bad' is wholly unnecessary when you consider that socialized healthcare hardly exists, public education is a living corpse of severely underpaid teachers, mass shootings (I've been in one), mandatory cost of car ownership, and so many other fucked up things.

I'm not saying that Japan is a good place to live, because it has a myriad of it's own problems and I personally wouldn't want to live there. I just think we should give people some credit for the shit Americans put up with too.

There are only two genders: man and political.

Uniforms are not exactly a conservative idea. You could argue that it is a return to tradition, but uniforms are functionally more progressive if anything.

I have been to, no joke, over a dozen schools in several countries, some with uniforms and some without, and I find uniforms to be a far better option. Yes, uniforms aren't cheap and you don't get to pick what to wear, but I here are some reasons why it is still very worth it:

  1. There is no pressure to dress well compared to peers, especially if they can't afford to
  2. Kids are less likely to be bullied for what they wear
  3. Kids don't have expend mental energy in the morning figuring out what to wear
  4. Uniforms are generally less restrive and more comfortable than what is currently in style
  5. It's optionally a form of gender expression for young trans folks (in open minded schools)
  6. Wardrobe malfunctions can be resolved at school sometimes
  7. Kids can reuse hand-me-downs from siblings going to the same schools
  8. A sense of community among peers, especially when they recognize each other outside of school
  9. Helps with body image because uniforms generally obscures people's silhouettes to the same degree, so there is less pressure to look a certain way

Fuck Humana. Those exploitative board members deserved to die slowly, painfully, and without healthcare.

One of the many things that bug me about that show is the fact that Sheldon exists as a poor portrayal and misconception of what Autism looks like and how it is used as an excuse for being an asshole at times.

Why go to mass when you can go to ass?

No, just like how in the usual 'girl boring guy quirky' memes, girls aren't allowed to be quirky.
