The Honest Truth about Dishonesty Puns

Here’s the thing... 90% of us meming about Virgin Galactic would much rather have money in Starlink/SpaceX or even Blue Origin. However, despite rumors of those guys going public, they’re still private. So we are left with $SPCE.

By 2040 the space industry will have massively expanded. We are on the brink of never seen before artificial constellations bringing a new age to satellite communications. We have a man who revolutionized the EV industry dedicating his life to landing humans on Mars. Some of the greatest minds and most well funded companies on the planet are all working on space related tech. If you think we aren’t at the beginning of something huge, you’re naive.

Sure, I want to make a quick buck just as much as my fellow retards, but if you think the $SPCE hype we’re seeing right now is as far as it will go, you’re going to miss out on a brand new dynasty of tendies. I’ve interned at some of the unicorns in the Valley over the last few years and witnessed some of the brightest young minds grind day and night to get a shot at working at companies like SpaceX and Blue Origin.

Look at how fucking far we’ve come from 100 years ago. Hell, look at 10 years ago and then tell me to my face you don’t think space is the future. The bottom line is, for us autists with only a Robinhood app and a dream, Virgin Galactic is our best entry into the space industry... and the sooner you get into that industry, the better.

Off the top of my head I can think of all the paintings of how Joseph translated the gold plates

What else is there?

“Due to Tramadol now being a narcotic it’s not easy to give you this pill even though it helps and I want to, but it would be detrimental for me to write now because the FDA considers it narcotic and your X-Ray isn’t “too severe” enough in their eyes as they want proof to give out a narcotic, regardless of strength. I am sorry about this, so go to an Othooedic surgeon and build a bigger paper trail of “proof” in order for me to write you a narcotic to give you back a normal life without suffering in pain.”

Best doctor I’ve had yet. Straight honest and Thorough.

Honestly I think it's time we face all the facts here on how it'll go. Seraphina will win, no doubt, good game. Seraphina can just instantly freeze John and it'll be good game. He can't unfreeze himself, Seraphina's mom is an example of that. Her moms speed stat legit is a ten and Seraphina was "faster than her" being able to stop her slap. Sera legit transcended the speed stat 10 so I doubt John will pick up her ability before being freezed. We've seen at some scenes how when she attacks everyone is frozen really giving us a general idea on how fast above 10 is so there's pretty much no way John can win because he'll be frozen. If John starts with her ability before fighting, it's game. Sera highest stat is more than likely speed, John most likely can 1.5* that, he'll be faster and freeze her. Game. Knock her out before rewind. Same way other around.

I really need some aspies to tell me what it is REALLY like as dating as an aspie. I feel like I am surrounded with too much sugarcoating.

Let me explain: my family always likes to tell me it isn't so bad - that there are "Success stories" out there of married aspies and aspies that have GF's. That I just need to wait for the right one. That I need to love myself more and accept myself. Cue in more truisms from Romantic Comedies speeches.

But I see things differently. Almost every aspie I talked to in real life struggles with dating.

But "Struggles" is such a weird word! "Struggles" is how NT's describe dating and not finding the right fit. "struggles" for many of the aspies i met means non existent dating to begin with.

Those aspies I met... They are lonely. They have insufficient friends (some of whom they wouldn't even call "friends" if they knew any better what a true friend is like). Their dating varies between non existent and settling for someone(and they wait LONG until that opportunity comes along).

I NEED someone to level with me. Yes there are threads out there about "dating as an aspie" but the "success stories" are upvoted to the top and most of what I see in real life - the loneliness, the settling, the long periods of no human contact - they are missing from those threads.

I need to know I am not the only one that sees through the sugarcoating. That for us, SOME, but not every pan has a lid. And its kind of insulting to hear that. That dating requires proficiency in arbitrary rules, rituals and "games" that people who have no clue about WILL be at a significant disadvantage. That just because there are "success stories" and its possible don't mean its extremely hard, and maybe out of your reach depending on where you are in the spectrum functioning-wise.

I am not defeatist by any means. I work a lot to improve my social abilities. But I would like other people to hammer realism to my family.

Top lds leaders are pride factories who only recognize other members if those members are at an event worshiping them. All top leaders stare at all day is numbers, specifically the MONEY tbms give them.

I was literally in shock at the ongoing and toxic pride from my last bishops and current stake dictator. Shock is the only word that fits because years ago I was still partially under the church's spell and believed that everything from most church leaders was influenced by the holy ghost. It's my local prideful leaders and their unimaginable abusive and cold behavior, spurred on and covered for by higher leaders, which woke me up to the reality of the arrogance and pride of church leaders at all levels.

People continue to ask me why I still hold beliefs in the book of Mormon and other religious aspects, and it's the deeply offensive behavior of my local leaders and the "seventy" ordering it (according to the sp who is seeking to assuage his guilt by claiming he "had no choice" thus making the church a liar about "discipline" being supposedly local) that is akin to taking pages from the book of Mormon and using them as toilet paper. When people on this sub do things like that to church books or temple items, it doesn't mean anything, but these church leaders are the biggest offences to the restoration and all the religious aspects they claim to support. I've said before how many parts of the Book of Mormon just condemn the hell out of lds leaders at all levels, from their pathological lying to other things.

TLDR: why do gamers perpetuate the myth Scuf is a good company when their products are expensive trash?

I own a Scuf Impact. I purchased the new $250+ controller and received early January 2019. In the first four months, I sent the controller back to Scuf to repair drift issues. Four months after the initial repair, same drift issues. Second time cost me $70 in repair, not including the money for shipping.

I own cheap dualshock PS4 controllers that hold up better than this so-called “elite” controller. Compare this fact with the idea of sending men to the moon. I believe Scuf employs a business tactic known as manufactured obsolescence. They could make a decent and durable product, but they’re a sleazy business. We should stop giving them money. Personally, I’m switching to mouse and keyboard after this second repair.

If the Church would unambiguously tell the truth and provide that truth in an easily accessible manner, it would go a long way in making new members, keeping its current members, and regaining its disaffected members. Every single question should have an authoritative answer, even if that answer is simply “We don’t know.” Stop the evasion, stop the deception, stop the gaslighting. Revelators should reveal truth, not hide it.

“Does being truthful with others mean that we must disclose every detail to whoever asks us a question? Not necessarily. While on earth, Jesus demonstrated that some people are undeserving of a direct answer or of certain information. When hypocritical religious leaders asked him by what power or authority he performed signs and miracles, Jesus said: “I will ask you one question. You answer me, and I will also tell you by what authority I do these things.” When the scribes and older men were unwilling to give an answer, Jesus said: “Neither am I telling you by what authority I do these things.” (Mark 11:27-33) He did not feel obligated to answer the question in view of their corrupt practices and faithless example. (Matt. 12:10-13; 23:27, 28) Similarly today, Jehovah’s people need to be on guard against apostates and other wicked men who use trickery or cunning for selfish purposes.​—Matt. 10:16; Eph. 4:14.

7 Paul likewise indicated that some people may not be entitled to receive a full or complete answer. He said that “gossipers and meddlers in other people’s affairs” are “talking of things they ought not.” (1 Tim. 5:13) Yes, those who pry into the affairs of others or those who cannot be trusted to keep a confidence may find that others are reluctant to share personal information with them. How much better it is to heed Paul’s inspired counsel: “Make it your aim to live quietly and to mind your own business.” (1 Thess. 4:11) At times, however, congregation elders may need to ask questions about personal matters in order to carry out their assigned duties. In such a case, our cooperation in speaking truth is much appreciated and is a great help.​—1 Pet. 5:2.“ WT 06/15/09 pp 16-20, para 6,7

Yet the Bible teaches “...conduct yourselves honestly in ALL things.” Hebrews 13:18

Do the hypocritical elders deserve truth? NOPE!

There's been a lot of dissent in this sub the last couple years. The aim of my post is to lay out some uneasy truths, and to also share some of my personal thoughts on the state of the team. I know not everyone will agree with me, and I know my logic isn't flawless in every place, but they're my thoughts nonetheless, and I stand by them.

To the Dak doubters - Dak can still be a franchise QB

A lot of people are out on Dak. That's expected given that he's the QB, and thus a lightning rod for blame. But it's still premature to want to move on from him. As poorly as he's played the last 10 or so games, he showed potential in 2016 and for the first part of 2017. We can still salvage his career with the right coaching (more on this later). If his poor play continues, an open competition next season is warranted. A short leash is also currently warranted. I understand patience is wearing thin. It's possible that Dak isn't the answer at QB, but it's also likely that Dak's play is a symptom of a greater problem.

To the staunch Dak supporters - He's been undeniably bad since the ATL game last year

There's no way around this. Dak hasn't been a good QB since the first half of 2017. Blame it on PTSD from ATL, poor coaching, Zeke's suspension, a lack of offensive weapons, whatever you want. All of those have contributed to his struggles. But this section isn't about why he's struggled. It's about accepting the ugly truth that Dak hasn't been a good QB. A lot of anti-Romo fans make endless excuses for Dak's struggles, and a lot of neutral fans are forced to be unreasonably pro-Dak because the anti-Dak fans can be just as unreasonable as the anti-Romo fans. Whatever side of the fence you may lie on, one thing that should not be denied is that Dak has not played good football for most of the last 11 games. Period. Don't believe me? Let's look at his stats from the ATL game to present day:

2004 yards, 8 passing TDs, 11 INTs, and 2 rushing TDs. These are not good numbers. Even if you were to total his passing and rushing TDs, his TD:INT ratio is still less than 1:1. Since the ATL game, here's what Dak's per game averages look like:

182 yards, 0.73 TDs, 1 INT. Ugly numbers, but it's a fair representation of what we've seen week in and week out.

You might accuse me of

Please contact media. It is a really important story to be told. there is little to nothing in the media or on the internet at this time. it is as though few are even recognizing his passing ...aside from a small group who are honoring him

Roy Jeff’s is a wonderful symbol of courage in the face of horrendous abuse and a good and kind man who is honest and vulnerable this was such a great tragedy And all of us should honor and respect him at this time— let his life and example be a light to all who have suffered abuse and pain from a cult experience

The "problems" this game has aren't actually problems. They're just biases of a player that they want in their favor. Loosen up guys. Change is good if you're down for variety. It looks bad because you want the game to become whatever favors you(though usually what you think you want isn't going to be what you want)

I find the game fun, and whatever the changes are, the game itself is still pretty much the same. I think the real problem is definitely in it's re-playability. There are a few skills, even fewer that are 'viable' and fight are very repetitive(though I still enjoy it). If I was to really nit-pick an issue I personally would say the mount is TOO convenient, you can reposition anywhere on the map, whenever you want, you can back out of a bad fight whereas unlike PUBG you feel the penalty for mispositioning. I feel like there's too much even-ground(I don't mean the literal terrain) when fighting. But REGARDLESS of any pet-peeves I might have about the game, it's just the type of game I like.

If there are people quitting the game over how strong Raider is, then it was a bad rework and needs to be brought back down to something that would fit this game

Dont @ me i only speak the truth

👌

She doesn’t want to have a kid. She wants to prove she’s “woman enough” to physically conceive. To her giving birth demonstrates that she is a whole and functional person. if she could have a baby given to her via adoption tomorrow she wouldn’t want it because she doesn’t want a baby she’s just trying to prove something.

THEY GIVE ONLY ONE FUCK AND THAT'S ABOUT $$$

You know what they don't give a fuck about?

- You - you're just a wallet to them.

wE hOpE yOu cOnTiNue tO eNjOy DrAgOnbALL lEgEnDs "

No.

No they don't.

They hope you continue to feel addicted so you spend money. That's it. They could give a fuck less whether you actually enjoy the game.

- gameplay itself - The game doesn't need to be perfect to them. Hell, it doesn't even need to be decent. PvP doesn't need dedicated servers because that would COST money. Lag issues? Meh. There's only two aspects of the game they care about: Refreshing summon banners to fuel your desires for new units and a shop to unload your money in pursuit of said units.

At the end of the day, they employ an entire team of devs for one purpose and one purpose only...continue making the game juuuuust fresh enough to keep people wanting more so they spend more.

This company took an anime we all love and have a passion for and used it as a cash grab smokescreen. It's the hard truth but it's the honest truth.

So here's my advice.

Temper your expectations.

Hopeful it will get better??

It won't.

This is how gacha games work and how they all inevitably die.

Assume every update will get worse until the flame eventually goes dark because that's what's going to happen. It sucks but if you expect it, it's less disappointing.

Since the "new rules" were implemented over at MaM i've been monitoring the subs actions using a resource given to me by a confidential source.

What i have found is - irrefutable black and white proof of bias, unfair application or rules, and protection (some more than others) of guilters.

Heres what i have found:

• mods removing truther comments that broke no rules

The Mods over there at various times have removed comments made by truthers that violated no rules. If you inquire about why your comment was removed, you will simply get NO response. All 3 mods are guilty of this in various degrees.

The most outrageous occurrence of this occurred to a user by the name of parkercom (if your out there please come back) - some of you may know him/her - this user had excellent posts, insightful and logical comments and questions, and was really getting under NYJ skin. This user also had the rare and not so easy ability to not get angry or frustrated when dealing with these smucks, but hitting them back with valid arguments and questions they couldnt answer.

There are many users who have the ability to put guilters in there place but few of us can go too long without wanting to wring those idiots necks.

So one day while checking out the mods actions i noticed the mod adell (who up until that point would rarely log on) had removed every single comment made by this user for the past 2 weeks, which was how long the user had been active - i read ALL the comments and found that NOT ONE of the comments had violated any rules! Somewhere around 400 comments had been removed, but there was no suspension or any other action taken. Strange...

I was outraged - so i messaged angie and asked what the hell - i explained what had happened that all these comments had been removed and none of them violated any rules. At first she was helpful - she responded with she too didnt see any violations and would talk to adell and find out what was going on. I talked to parkercom and no mod had contacted them. I again asked angie - what the hell was going on and she responded she hadnt been able to talk with adell yet but maybe it was for ban evasion and she said the new rules said new users would be given little leeway so she was within her right to remove the comments and that the user would have to ask adell why she removed the comments. I responded by telling her the user had tried contacting adell several times but could not get a response so im asking her. Shortly afte
