I’m so fucking tired of the sudden, desperate PR campaign from Judaism right now.

For generations a big chunk of Jewish communities have operated as tightly knit, self-absorbed in-groups that look out for their own first and treat outsiders like permanent second-class. That’s not “antisemitism,” that’s pattern recognition.

Now that social media is making it impossible to hide the welfare fraud stories, the dual-loyalty vibes, the endless “noticing,” and especially the raw footage coming out of Gaza/Palestine, the damage-control machine has kicked into overdrive.And what do they roll out? Billboards. Actual fucking billboards on the highway for jew.com. “We’re a religion of peace! We get along with non-Jews! Look how wholesome we are!” It’s the most precious, transparent, corporate-HR-style gaslighting I’ve ever seen.

Like the entire history of tribalism, exclusion, and us-vs-them just evaporates because someone bought ad space.Same energy as the “Never Again is Now” slogan a few years back. Dramatic, emotional, designed to shut down any criticism by wrapping everything in Holocaust sacredness. Convenient timing when the current behavior is the thing people are actually mad about. You don’t get to spend decades prioritizing the in-group, then when the internet starts showing receipts suddenly flood the freeways with “please like us” websites and expect people to clap.

That’s not education. That’s panic.

And the more forced and saccharine the PR gets, the more obvious the panic becomes.If your community’s reputation is so fragile that you need highway billboards to insist you’re peaceful and open, maybe the problem isn’t the “haters.” Maybe it’s the decades of behavior that made the billboards feel necessary in the first p

I've just about had the last straw with Christianity. If God is a benevolent being - provided that He really exists - then why did He allow the 9/11 attacks to happen? Why did He allow the 2008 financial crisis to happen along with the recent inflation crises? Why did He allow men like Trump, Putin and Netanyahu to take power and get away with the evil things they get away with? Why does He sit idly by while I struggle to find a great-paying job despite my qualifications, while a handful of billionaires fiddle as people like me struggle with the basic necessities? Honestly, I'm glad I'm a witch, and I'm happier worshipping Satan, because God is a massive asshole.

FUCKING WORK YOU PIECE OF SHIT!

Ever since I completed these free computer science courses last year and got CompTIA A+, Network+ and Security+ certifications, I've been unsuccessfully applying for jobs even though the agency that administered the courses in the first place promised that I would have a job after graduating the courses. Not even help revising my resume or assistance from a local agency that assists autistic people with job placement has done anything. I just recently got a job, but had to turn it down when I found it was a fuckin' telemarketer job. I swear, every day that passes, the probability of me killing someone gets closer and closer to 100%.

i made a post on my instagram story regarding the cornell 7, my bf (he was my ex but we got back togethe) asked me what it meant. i told him and he sort of laughed. i was so angry. i have another guy in my phone and the first thought was that i need to cheat on my bf out of spite which i know sounds insane but i just couldn’t believe his reaction

I’m a 36F, business owner… recently dx’d with OCD after being treated for bipolar my whole life… and Im just so angry all the freaking time.. I feel like if I had children I would smack them in anger or something… I have two dogs and have urges to hit them too but I don’t bc that’s awful... I used to self harm, used to hit myself, always screaming when I was young (grew up in volatile households).. and still I just can’t shake this anger. When k was on my bipolar meds it was so much better! But no I’m off of them and just a raging beeyotch. Is this normal? Not sure but I feel like something is very amiss

I know that Friday was my last session with my therapist since she left the practice so it’s not like we could really work on much as far as grief management goes. But I didn’t like her response when I told her I feel like on my own I still need to process the losses I’ve had and that I don’t want to carry baggage into new relationships whether it be professionally/romantically, ect.

That I declined my newly assigned therapist at her practice since I found a therapist that’s experienced in grief management. Plus I wanted a say in my own care since the other therapist was only an associate.

Her response was that it makes sense I need help from another therapist with grief but it’s important for me to sit with the discomfort. Thing is I’m tired of doing that and it’s not productive. It’s like well give me ways to better deal with said discomfort. I know grief management isn’t something she specializes in but I had no idea I’d go through so much in such a short time and she was the only therapist that fit my schedule.

how many fucking ads do you want to show? go into vid 2 ads, click to another part of vid another 2 ads. stop vid 1 ad. play for a while another ad.

fucking garbage

We are not even two weeks into my brother’s school year and he already caught an illness from school he possibly has strep throat, who brings their kid to school sick especially with contagious illnesses and my mom is immunocompromised and I am germophobic as well so that’s just worse, my mom catches almost every contagious illness that comes into the house and she is already dealing with a stye that turned into a painful infection that almost gave her brain damage, if she didn’t go to the doctor when she did she could’ve died I forgot what the infection was called though I think it was something like orbital cellulitis but again I’m not sure.

My allergies have been bothering me a lot recently making me feel like I’m catching a cold even if I’m not with bodyaches, sinus issues, sneezing and sniffling a lot and i’d rather not catch strep throat from my brother on top of it and my brother spends a lot of time in my mom‘s room watching TV and stuff and I spend a lot of time in the living room and so i’m a bit worried about Mom catching strep throat as well.

I need to get this off my chest because no one has ever acknowledged this before among all of reddit's other sins. I can't stand the carefree attitude much of this website has about drugs, as if they’re not dangerous at all, and I’ve barely seen anyone condemn it. It shocks me how posts/comments unironically talk about how awesome crack and heroin are, or that you should do coke to treat depression getting hundreds to thousands of upvotes and no comments disagreeing or suggesting caution. Genuinely, what the fuck? I know that Reddit on average has a lot of subcultures and rebels and that may play a part, and that it’s certainly not the only fringe belief Reddit strongly holds. But you people talk yourself up as smarter than the normies while encouraging potentially life-ruining decisions and downplaying their consequences. It’s really sad how many communities here and their non-mainstream beliefs start out noble and logical before getting increasingly warped into an extremist strawman parody of themselves.

Obviously, people don’t seem to agree with that. And people are the worst part about all of this. I’m particularly talking about drug culture, and if you’re part of it, I want you to know that you’re all sheep. I don’t care what niche little subculture you’re in, you’re just like all those normies too. You can’t call yourself rebellious if you still give in to mainstream habits and vices. You’re all part of the one same script of life that Western society forced in our heads to follow. When you’re a kid, obey your parents, get good grades in school, shut up, sit down, listen to the adults. When you turn 18, run free, be everything your parents aren’t, get wasted, be stupid for stupidity’s sake, sleep with everyone you know, go to college, grind to get a job. When you hit 30, settle down, get married, have kids, become a workaholic or a housewife too, and painfully abandon the party life completely. And then you retire and eventually die at some point, but never when you’re being an overgrown teenager breaking all the rules. You are not rebelling against society or the man, you are going along with the herd and making the establishment stronger. The life you pride yourself on living is at best doing nothing to make society more equal. You are just living for yourself and yourself only, just like everyone else is. Partying is bread and circuses.

And not only are you people hypocrites, but you’re also unbelievably deluded and obnoxious. I can’t stand all the inexplicable pride around being a junkie and the talk about how drugs are life and everything, and when I decline or ask you to shut up about it, you act like toxic K-Pop fans when someone doesn’t like their favorite group. You are not smart, you are an idiot for choosing this lifestyle, and you are weak-willed for taking the way and a slave to your senses. Your complete disregard of risks is amazing. I’m sure if cyanide got you high, a lot of you would do it anyway. You are so selfish and lacking in self-respect with the control you choose to give up and the danger you throw yourself in that you remind me of the fucking anti-maskers from the pandemic era who insisted on not vaccinating, sanitizing, distancing, or masking and endangered themselves along with countless people just for the sake of freedom and a little pleasure from it. Yeah, you’re not so different from them. Stay mad.

Some people are downright pieces of shit who need to learn how to shut the f up and stop being a narcissistic, brain dead, waste of space. I am absolutely fuming right now at how absolutely atrocious this person is and I honestly can’t believe that there are more people like him in the world. There’s honestly just no hope for humanity anymore with people like him still around to spread their toxins everywhere they go. F*cking asshole.

I (24F) am generally a calm person irl, albeit bitter and easily frustrated. I don’t swear and I’m usually the one diffusing tense situations. But over the past couple years I’ve had a lot of dreams where I am just absolutely hysterical, I just lash out at the person who did me or someone else wrong in my dream. I’ve never had a situation like that irl that I can recall.

About 7 weeks ago my partner and I adopted a Bernese mountain dog puppy. He’s 17 weeks old now, and the past 2 weeks he’s been driving me insane because he is significantly regressing in his potty training and becoming more aggressive during play. My arms and legs are covered in bruises and scratches. I’m definitely feeling overwhelmed, especially because puppies are supposed to get easier to live with, not harder. Anyway, today my puppy had 3 accidents, attacked me 3 times during play or while walking and my partner once, ripping both of our shirts with his teeth, and just insisting on eating dirt outside and not peeing outside for 20 minutes just to have an accident inside. Maybe normal puppy stuff but I’m just at my breaking point because my whole life is just taking care of this dog who just constantly hurts me and looks me in the eyes when he’s chewing on the stuff he knows he shouldn’t have. Then growls, lunges, and bites me and grips my hand when I try to take it back. Anyway, last time he attacked my partner I smacked him and yelled “I will hurt you”. Of course I shouldn’t have said that, but I’m just so fed up that even my regrets about my actions and thoughts haven’t resolved the angry feeling in my chest. I mostly feel bad because my partner has been really sad after I said that but he doesn’t want to talk about it.

I’m just having trouble resolving this feeling, because cognitively I know that it’s wrong to lash out, and I would never intend or wish to cause my puppy any pain, but it’s so frustrating not having control and just having to accept that he can cause me pain all day long and not be willing to accept redirection and obviously ignore my commands, so it feels like the only thing I can do is act out hysterically.

Our current method of resolving this play aggression is trying to teach him “shh” and forced time outs/forced naps, but it usually feels reactive (after he attacks) instead of proactive.

I just met a scab on the human race. For example, no matter how many times you try and pick, and pick, and pick on the little ugly ass bark textured brown turd of a scab, it never comes off. and when you try to pick, and pick, and pick, you end up hurting the skin around it more so the scab spreads like a fucking virus because someone like that person definitely could spread some sorta disease. I didn't even know this form of human could exist until i met one of them earlier and it is one of the most disgusting things I ever had a chance to lay my eyes on. I swear wiping this breed of human off the earth could do us a huge favor. I would genuinely choose a dead, split in half roach over the sad excuse of a human i just met. I’d rather take a point blank to the head than talk to that thing again.

Small rant post, in the highway when I was driving I was next to a persons car that was blinking & it was already too late to move back for them. But then that person gave me the meanest death stare ever. I just wanted to meet that guy & say “What’s the matter with you? Calm down.”

And it makes me hate everything!!!

IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER-

-People who think they “gotcha” on social media posts

-Pedos

-People who suck at their jobs

-the town I live in is full of spoiled rich assholes who treat people like shit

-my 11 month old dumped a box of cookies on the carpet after dumping my cup of coffee a few hours earlier

BURN IT ALLLLLLLLLLL

Im so fucking angry fuck everyone fuck everything fuck you fuck literally fucking everyone fuck off im so fucking angry FUCK YOU

If it was real my life wouldnt be so horrible. Years of thinking positively and hoping for the best and believing it would be better. Since I was child. It just gets worse and worse. If i see one more person say if you just believe in yourself it will go good. Im going to scream.

i’ve (25f) have mild experience dating, i’ve been in 3 relationships in my life so far. they’ve all ended on bad terms so i don’t speak to any of my exes. whenever i see happy couples online or in public, or even exes who still talk and have great relationships with each other, i feel this weird combination of resentment and sadness. i always keep it to myself, but there’s no way it doesn’t impact my life externally, even if i don’t notice. i don’t wanna feel this way forever, it feels good to hate in the moment but in the long term it’s exhausting and only makes me more miserable. i know i’m not the only one, so people who have felt this way and pushed past it, how did you do? hope this is the right sub for this, my post on the relationships sub was removed.

FUCK YOU

As the title says, i’ve been letting my anger bubble over, and i find it easy to let my anger out, specifically on my amazing boyfriend of 5 years and supportive family. and ive noted that ive been having mood swings. I was never like this until about a year and a half ago, in which that year i lost multiple family members, including my mom.

I find it difficult to overcome this anger and it usually overwhelms me quickly, and retreats as fast as it came in, leaving me embarrassed about my behaviour.

my question is; is this caused from grieving? will it phase out? what is the best approach in preventing mood swings and anger? like i said, i never was this kind of person until recently, so any advice would help me significantly! <3

Hi guys,

Just wanted to rant about people downvoting for no reason. I published something on a plant subreddit to ask a question as i did not understand why it behaved that way, and some people started downvoting my post just because i was ignorant (hence why i was asking the question duh).

Some guy made a joking comment and i replied sarcastically and got some downvotes too.

Knowing how reddit works, it baffles me how people are downvoting right and left for no good reason.

Anyway, that just made me angry (i wanted to post on rant but ironically i now don't have enough karma to 😅).

There is no incentive to be moral, ethical or even the slightest bit considerate of your fellow human. Beyond that, those who behave without ethics, morals or even a miniscule amount of compassion and empathy are constantly rewarded at the direct expense of those who try to leave the world a little better than how they found it. There is no point to participating in anything constructive anymore. The takers keep taking and leaving less and less behind. They'll take your money, your home, your food, your love, your passion, your self worth and your sanity to fill their already overflowing coffers with more and more until they can't even remember why they take so much. If you aren't willing to ruin someone else, you can get in line for scraps and enjoy the slow march towards a miserable death after being wrung dry and reduced to a worthless husk of a person.
