This is making me a bit upset.

If someone is homophobic or transphobic, they are downvoted to hell. AS THEY SHOULD BE FOR BEING HATEFUL OR INTENTIONALLY INSENSITIVE.

But, if someone is being unnecessarily mean to people who believe in a religion, THOSE COMMENTS ARE BEING FREAKING UPVOTED! I though we were accepting of everyone and encouraging discussion over hate. But I guess assuming this was wrong.

I just saw so much casual Islamophobia under a post, the post itself wasn't even regarding a controversial issue, it just happened to have an Islamic side to it.

Yes, I am Muslim, and actively practice my religion. No, I am not backwards. No, I am not stupid. No, I am not delusional. And no, I sure as hell do not need the atheists to come and save me from my "cult".


Thank you for listening.

    Have seen a comment "Opinions aren’t wrong. They’re opinions." This is amazing. Opinions can be very wrong. What kind of low budget philosopher came up with that statement?

    "Hello, I am a horrible racist and state racist comments all the time, but I am not wrong, it is just my opinion. Also it is my opinion that the Earth is flat and the Moon landings were a hoax."

    I'm going to disagree with you a bit Nathaniel I like you a lot and you really make me laugh. I agree with you on the racist thing and on homophobia and transphobia and basically all hate speech. But why can't someone have the opinion that the moon landings are fake why should they be downvoted to oblivion and mocked why can't someone believe in ghosts or angels if they want to who are they harming?

    Ik no one is really going to pay attention but I really just need to vent. I am really scared because people always say to enjoy childhood because adulthood sucks, but so far by childhood has been a nightmare. It’s not even like anything bad really happened, I just feel… empty. I think I have become depressed, but I don’t know how to respond to it or how to tell people. I know I need help, but I also feel like my problems don’t really matter because there are people out there dealing with much worse. I am about to start my fourth therapist in the past 2 years, but I just feel like it’s not going to help because same with the other 3, I am scared to open up to them. So yea it was kinda random but I just need to vent.

    I'm sorry, that's a tough situation to be in. Your issues are valid. I know it's really scary to open up to someone about this kind of thing, take your time but remember that they're there to help

    If I speak up for anyone about anything, they then use that as an excuse to get away with things. It’s very irritating. I’m sure some of u understand

    I got back my math and geography projects and I finished making the final version of the project so if the universe is by my side, I’ll have all the pages spiral binded by tomorrow and it will be submitted on Friday! Also, I’m planning on making my own stickers about space and other stuff I like. I switched my Third group subject from computer to art and while I’m not too good in it, I’m apparently doing quite well for a beginner. I’m going to eat donuts once my projects get returned and I submit the final ones. I’m also going to make a post about my favourite space facts soon. I hope it gets posted

    I attempted to make English Muffin Bread the other day, which was exciting because my kitchen has been under construction for a while, and I messed up the milk and water ratio, so it's not quite English Muffin Bread, but it's still really good toasted.

    Not much going on rn :)
    I'm going to spend the summer working on some art and gardening projects. I also want to get better at cooking, any recommendations for what I should try to make? (Preferably something easy)
    I'm also going to read a lot, and try to get back into writing (I tried writing a book a few years ago, it ended up getting too overwhelming because I kept finding things I wanted to change)

    I have prom like VERY soon and I'm kinda nervous ngl. I absolutely love my dress, though I'm not sure what makeup to wear. I think I'm going to try to talk to a girl I've liked for a while, see how that goes. My bestie has been going on and on and on and on about this girl who she's madly in love with (not that this girl knows that) since Christmas, and I'm slightly concerned that she's gonna try make a move, and the whole situation with both of the people we like is a little delicate, so pray that neither of us do anything too stupid. Apart from that, planning to get a lot of photos with people I like, some of whom I'm not going to see much of anymore and just have fun basically. Sorry for that, I know that nobody asked, but that's what's on my mind now exams are over.

    If people are homophobic or transphobic...what’s the big deal? Why’s it so bad? It doesn’t affect you, it doesn’t matter. We can all have our own opinions. People don’t get that. Downvoting them into oblivion is cruel.

    You are allowed to have your own opinions but they should not come before respect and facts.
