Who is stopping you from taking a break? My hot take is just a general recommendation, especially for people you love.
Being naive is not the same as being optimistic.
Realists are just pessimists.
You should be an optimist even if you are faking it. To lift others up.
Thank you!
Also changing diapers is not hard at all. You get used to it after second change. It becomes boring task you do not think about - like going to the toilet yourself.
I could not agree more about my wife! She is totally awesome and I really love spending time with her. We are constantly goofing arround. I had a crush on her since we have been 14 and started dating. Now 10 years together we are married and got our first kid. I could not be happier.
She is just changing diapers right now and I am thinking how lucky I am to have her.
I also believe actively trying to have positive/wholesome view on a world helps a lot.
This is why I really like this community.
One should not use boolean just because variable has only two states.
I believe when you use boolean when enum should be used is called “boolean blindness”.
Eg: isFemale instead of enum Sex {MALE;FEMALE} It also gives you an option to simply extend code if requirements change and there are more than two options.
What? Weird! This is against what this organization is supposed to represent. Sad.
TLDR: Scouts are about nature AND religion. Not just nature. There are many organisations that are just about nature. Feel free to join them.
Why should they not discriminate against atheists?
For real. Just because you believe it is about nature? Scout organizations are clearly about nature AND religion.
Join an organization that is just about nature.
In my country we have two strong scout organisations. One religious and one not. Religious one focused more on a personal growth and the other one more on nature skills. (Well some of my friends in religious one were atheists they just had to practice the same activities)
Churches do not accept atheists. Chess clubs discriminate against non chess players.
But if they would include non chess players, chess clubs would have no meaning.
One can see you do not hold religions in high regard, but please allow people with the same interests and believes to meet and express themselves together in a peaceful manner.
Not recently. But few rules I collected/made up through years, that are quite usefull to me:

This is a good explanation of racism.
But this is not the reason coloring yourself with skin color of another person is considered racist.
As have others explained it is due to racist use of this practice.
I used word “personally”. I just added European for a context. I know a lot of Europeans know a lot of stuff. I myself just do not know a lot of stuff.
(And yes I know I could probably express myself better. I have never been good with English.)
I knew it is considered racist - and would be considered racist also in Europe. I just did not know why. I believed reason for it being racist came from american history. This is why I asked Americans.
I believe it is very well explained in the comments.
Yes. How did you know. 🤦♂️ I genuinely wanted to know why is this act considered racist. And got explained very well in the comments - no thanks to you.
Nahh… May be true in other cases (in extremes you have everything). But not in this case. As have others explained due to historical use of this act, the act itself is offensive.
Like using swastika as an ancient symbol of sun. People will perceive it as nazi symbol no matter what are your intentions.
Thank you! That helped a lot to expand knowledge of my ignorant ass :)
Well thank you! I can see there is much more to it than just “coloring your face to match skin tone of character you are trying to represent”. The coloring itself has been historically used as a racist act.
So I get it now. My question now reads as “What is wrong with swastika - old symbol for sun” or something like that.
Good for you. Or something…
I hope you feel good about yourself. Knowing stuff and all. God forbid you share your knowledge with us who know nothing. /s
My hot take is targeting “realists” who say: “Your idea is bad. Do not pursue it. I am just being realistic.” Even though their idea has maybe small but fair chance of succeeding. This is just discouragement - which is more often seen in pessimists.
Actually at this point I do not even know enough about words and definitions to continue.
I think we should actively try to encourage each other to act, also by believing in others ideas (still do not believe in winning the lottery).
