okay so this is one that gets Worse With Context.

the whole passage is about sexual congress outside of marriage; both in the context of consensual sex and sexual assault.

If a woman has sex in city limits, and she did not scream for help, both her and her partner must be killed as it violated the rule of God (v25). If she does scream for help, she is to be spared, because she's an innocent victim. (v26) If this happens outside the city, it's to be presumed the woman was assaulted, called out and no one heard, and only the man is to be killed. (v27).

Effectively, this is ‘surely all REAL victims fight back. What do you mean freeze response.’ coupled with ‘At What Point Does Honour Killing Become Good and Legislatively Acceptable?”

Look I have no beef with folks of faith unless they start telling me what I'm allowed to do based on the teachings of their faith. But someone just quoted deuteronomy so I went to check out the context and I have a lot of fucking questions lads

former missionary kid/pastor’s kid, current cheerful agnostic, happy to answer any questions you have if I can!

the dev patel girlies have KNOWN how hot he is for years and years but the little giggle I heard from a grown man seated next to me when he took his shirt off in monkey man tells me it's truly over for everyone else. god bless

I have just spent £15 on this textbook about biotechnology for a fun read because doing the antimicrobial action of aromatic VOCs for my dissertation made gave me ethnobotany brainworms. Maybe the ed psych was on to summat with that autism spectrum disorder thing 😭

i will never recover from this

see dev patel just gets it. he’s aware that we yearn for sweaty curls and a tight black suit and beating the shit out of corrupt politicians

""mania was a bad album""" mania took inspiration from dancehall & afrobeat music, even going as far as to feature burnaboy, one of the the biggest afrobeat musicians of the past decade AT LEAST on sunshine riptide. the incorporation of electropop & synthpop elements borrow technique and take inspiration from a genre pioneered by black DJ & producer Afrika Bambaataa. mania isn't a bad album, you're just white and unwilling to accept & enjoy the incorporation of music production and sound design from outside of the white eurocentric mainstream.

most of the talk on this website about Game Changer is how Sam Reich psychologically tortures his contestants, but I want to make it clear to the uninitiated that he's actually extremely ethical about it

He sends out a company wide email and asks them to choose episodes based on a chili pepper rating system

meaning he doesn't put 🌶️🌶️ people into 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ episodes

they're also big on consent ie cast and crew have to be okay with it before they'll do nudity or something like that in an episode

it's like the bdsm of psychological torture. safe, sane, and consensual.

the contestants know what they're getting into, and they're full down

What your favourite bird family says about you:

Corvids - We get it, you're a trashpunk nb gremlin, who's most listened to artists on spotify are the Mother Mother, Girl in Red and The Mountain Goats. Please pick a new personality and delete the post about the "old forest gods at Walmart parking lot" that you've saved in the drafts.

Accipitrids: You are either a dudebro (gender neutral) who drinks 3 monster energy's a day, and spends their time smoking weed and thinking about shit like whether a cyborg shark could beat a zombie bear. Or you're a very small angry dyke (gender neutral) who just likes birds that serve cunt and are living vicariously through them. Or both.

Columbids: You're adjacent to the trash goblin above but you're also "old person at park" adjacent so square those together. In other words you think you're being cool and counterculture but you and the ladies at bingo night would have a lot to talk about.

Anatids: Oh there's nothing going on up there is there? You fed the ducks a few times as a kid and you've been locked in ever since then. Well in this economy can't hurt to not have a single thought in the world. That or you're way too invested in the asshole goose meme and identify a bit too closely with it for anyone to be comfortable hanging around with you.

Larids: Now this is groundbreaking. If this is genuinely you're favourite family of birds you are absolutely a pioneer in opinion having because you are the first person of all time to have this opinion. This is not a good thing, stop ordering small portions of food and then getting hungry and eating everyone else's stuff, it's not cute it's just annoying.

Falconids: You are 150 cm tall and are convinced that if you got in a fight with someone you're feisty enough to win. You have never gotten into a fight in your life and probably never will but this will not stop you from thinking this.

No fucking way LMFAO
