  • Yep. I've been told a bunch of stuff like this because I'm chronically ill. My lack of faith in something that has no proof is not why my incurable illness has not been cured.

  • The horror
  • Then I'm not sure what you point was supposed to be. If lifesaving surgery is mutilation then mutilation isn't inherently a bad thing and isn't an argument against gender affirming surgery.

  • Atheist Morals
  • Yep. I had someone "explain" to me that the only reason I had morals was that I was a good god fearing Christian. Because they couldn't fathom the idea that someone could treat others well and not want to harm anyone without fearing god. When I said I'm an atheist they absolutely refused to believe me. Like they walked away from the conversation convinced I am Christian solely because I'd never killed anyone.

  • only ever had one that tried to sneak around.

    Oh, so you do understand that some cats try to sneak around, but decided to be judgemental about something you have experience with.

  • Christian conservatives be like:
  • Yep, hypocrisy is great ain't it? I've had people tell me that being LGBT is a religion and therefore it shouldn't be allowed to be taught to children, and then in the same paragraph say that all kids should be raised Christian. I've also had people tell me I was too young to know in my mid 20s that I wanted a hysterectomy, but then turn around and defend circumcision. Here's the thing though, while yes, I did want a hysterectomy, it was done for medical necessity. In a two sentence comment someone defended newborn circumcision, and then told me my doc should be in jail "for mutilating the genitals of a child". Because apparently people in their 20s are children.

  • This tiny maneuver is going to cost us a day's worth of productivity
  • Yep, like just like everything else, not everything works for everyone. I've been awake for 26+ hours to the point I'm hallucinating and still unable to fall asleep. But apparently I just have to wait till I'm tired enough. As if being awake for 26 hours straight isn't enough? I also can generally make it so I can be awake at the right time if left to my own devices. Which is why I'm really glad I'm out of my parents house, because they would decide "you've been sleeping long enough" and wake me up an hour after I fell asleep.

  • This tiny maneuver is going to cost us a day's worth of productivity
  • Yep, that's what I was told every time I brought up my sleep issues. Yeah, it's been a few decades and surprise it's never worked. Overtired me tends to be awake for longer. And then when I eventually crash, because it is inevitable, I crash HARD and sleep for 10+ hours completely dead to the world. Thankfully so far I haven't slept through anything super important. I can only go to sleep quickly if I run myself absolutely ragged.
