  • Back when I was a young, gay goth, one of my closest friends talked me into going out swapping wardrobes. He was(and still is) very handsome, but he is one of those preppy gay guys.

    I hate the fact that our Polaroids of that night got lost. It was such fun, and although I didn’t recognize myself in the mirror, it felt amazing, being a different version of myself for a night. And he felt so free, not having to worry about his hair and looks for the night, wearing comfortable, scuffed to hell boots, instead of his traditional suede shoes.


  • Easy, because most people do. Be it by indoctrination of their children, justification of atrocities, or by feeling self righteous, it is almost always a tool of coercion.

    And people who think they’re above of it all, and who think their lukewarm faith is the answer, are disgusting to the creature they claim to serve, as per the Book of Revelation, chapter 3, verses 15-16.



  • Personally, because I take offense at anyone who proudly worships the creature who killed tons of babies and kids, just for being the firstborn of a culture and not taking in the religion of another group just for being the correct one, imposing rules on a whim and turning those who failed into salt, testing faith by asking someone to kill their child, burning up cities because it disagreed with with how some of the people in it lived, and many other atrocities.

    But more to the point, because I think it is disgusting to worship a creature so powerful and stubborn that after so much interference, now allegedly just says “I’m a hands off parent now, I don’t care if you poke your eye out, commit Holocaust or poison and kill men, women and children by pretending to be acting in my name, I’ll just judge you after you die, k, tks, bye”

    You claim to be against the sins that form the basis of your religion, and I respect that, but one can’t turn a blind eye to what the scriptures say.

    With love, a former seminarian.

    Shrink wrap was the most accurate at the time, especially accounting for reptiles, which were the original inspiration for said technique.

    And since most soft tissue doesn’t fossilize, they were doing the best they could with the tools they had.

    And while they were often wrong, I would like to see you try to guess what the animals looked like, based on skull alone, and compare your accuracy against the people you’re calling lazy, probably from the comfort of your own toilet.

    Nobody is banning amateurs or being butthurt when confronted with alternative theories that make sense in any way, shape or form. His so called theories make zero sense, have no evidence and investing all that time and effort debunking for free, when he is actively being paid to produce that bullshit, is something that most people don’t have the time or resources to do.

    And such disinformation butchers critical thinking, but it is great to produce revenue for Netflix and himself, so since he is financially motivated not to change course or even acknowledge his bullshit views, then he can not be considered as a valid source of theories.
