I had to zoom and squint so much while looking at this picture on my phone that for a second I thought it was Rick Astley

I was really starting to get worried that no one would point this out.

Why the fuck do you choose atheism over agnosticism? by Universalsecretsin atheism

[–]Universalsecrets 1 point2 points ago

lol no its totally ok, I only swore in the title just because it is something that has been on my mind for a long time and wanted to actually get an answer instead of being buried in the new posts. As someone who has spent most of their life considering the universe, I was actually shocked to find out that atheism does not exclude agnosticism. I was also very embarrassed to have not read the FAQ. So trust me, I feel more like the asshole :)

I did not, but thank you for kindly pointing me in that direction. I have learned something new today.

This is a calling for ALL pornographic sites to BLACKOUT on February 20th in protest of Lamar Smith's newest offense: PCIP, or The Protecting Children from Internet Pornography Act. Please, upvote this so it can gain steam! by pelicansurf123in politics

Having been a teenage girl, I can say with some confidence that if child porn is to include self-shots of horny teenagers, then 99 percent of internet pedophiles are teenagers.

I once read that if you do mundane activities with your non-dominant hand, it improves the plasticity of the brain. Is that true? by ashwinmudigondain askscience

[–]Universalsecrets 0 points1 point ago

I had a book about those kind of activities which are called "neurobics". It was called "Keep Your Brain Alive". I don't remember if they cited any studies in regards to the efficacy of the exercises, but I would be really interested to hear what others have to say about it.

College athlete to be charged with felony for pouring boiling hot water over pet dog. by slumdog-properin offbeat

Pigs have a very similar intelligence level to dogs. Too bad they aren't fluffy and adorable. Maybe then they wouldn't be synonymous with asshole.

Yes, can someone please tell this little girl that we are totally over the whole Down With The Princess Stereotype movement? I mean, we get it. Girls can and do enjoy things that are typically associated with boys. Although I'm not entirely convinced -- she tries way too hard to profess her love for the one thing we all know is associated with boys way more than trucks, tools, and sports combined - Volcanoes! And immediately denounces princesses. If you ask me, she is trying too hard to go against the norm. I hope this is the last article we ever see from this zealot.

I think someone just tried to follow me on my bus route home. Did I do the right thing? What should I have done? When can I turn the lights on in my house? by Universalsecretsin TwoXChromosomes

[–]Universalsecrets[S] 5 points6 points ago

Fair enough. It was certainly a learning experience and I appreciate all the kind support of people telling me better safe than sorry. My thoughts went back and forth from being frightened and wanting to seek safety in light and crowded areas to angrily preparing myself to kick the guy in the balls if he got near me, and this coupled with the fact that it seemed very possible that I was just being incredibly paranoid influenced my choice to stay on the bus as it pulled out of the town center. It was at that point the man walked towards the back of the bus to look at me while I was attempting to hide myself, and my sense of fear reached a whole new level. I think anger and frustration is part of the whole fight or flight thing - and probably not something to belittle someone for.

[–]Universalsecrets[S] 5 points6 points ago

That's a very good idea. Nothing remotely like this has ever happened to me before, but whenever I imagine being threatened with assault, I always feel like anything I would do to try to get the attacker in trouble would just result in them deciding to kill me because of it... like trying to secretly call the cops or taking a picture. But letting them know that others already have evidence takes the threat to the attacker out of your hands.

I'm actually not sure, I was so scared to look back but I wish I knew if he had even seen where I lived. You would only have to be a few steps from the bus stop to see my front door.

Thank you! He actually came home about an hour ago, and I had forgotten that I dead bolted the door which I never really did before. When I heard him rattling the door trying to get it open, I ran over to the door with a knife. I was relieved to see him in the window.

[–]Universalsecrets[S] 3 points4 points ago

I thought about it but there wasn't a good opportunity. I actually really regret it because I would like to have it in case I see him on the way home in the future, I am nervous that he knows which 2 buses I take at that time of day.

I'm the same way, I become very immobilized when frightened. I've definitely learned from this, all I could think when I was looking in my bag was "how to I not have a single thing in here that I could protect myself with?". I will definitely be getting pepper spray, thanks for the link.
