And yes, anti-theist atheists jumping on religious figures of speech culturally ingrained in non-Christian cultures is a form of racial/cultural microaggression. It is common for East Asian people to make comments based on religions we're culturally familiar with, like "karma got him" or "enemies in a prior life" and so on, whether we specifically subscribe to these religions or not. Anti-theists condescending to this kind of cultural expression is a bigoted ass move.
This is yet another reason I do not truck with anti-theists, because they so often use their opposition to religion as a way to intellectually justify their discomfort with and aggression toward religiously influenced cultural expressions of the "other." In many cases they're just outright alt-right buttholes.

Hot Take, Basically painting a target on my back
You know, the current Twitter discourse about zoos in the fandom is no accident, because the intersection between the surge of moral-panicky anti-zoo sentiments, and furry raiders/displaced furry kiwifarmers creating The First Furry Government movement is no coincidence.
I'd go so far as to say that anti-zoo sentiments are downstream of deeply harmful colonialist mindsets drawing from the disgust a lot of slave owners have towards their own getting into sexual relations with a black person, and how BIPOC were seen as less than humans like animals back then. This deeply racist sentiment exists even today.
Before you reply, I want to make it clear that this isn't about animal sexual abuse, it's about a kink/fetish that has been largely maligned. Animal sexual abusers are deeply disturbed people and they need to be stopped before they harm any more animals.

@Felthry I hope so too. It's been a rough ride this year.
CW Medical Trauma
So the long story short is, I almost died in May.
So around the 5th of May, I suffered the mother of all stomachaches, and I ended up vomiting at least a dozen times over the course of 7 hours. By the end of it, I was in extreme agony, and I made a choice between sleeping it off or getting hospitalized. I chose to get hospitalized.
I later learned how that was the right choice, because what I suffered was gallstone-induced acute necrotizing pancreatitis, and part of the organ had died off. Had I tried to sleep it off, I may not have woken up...ever.
I stayed in the hospital for 12 days while they put me on an aggressive antibiotics course, and monitored my heart rate, which peaked at around 144 bpm....yeah. It took a long time to finally recover.
Later on, they put a stent in my stomach wall to drain the biggest pseudocyst that had formed out of the dead organ and bacteria debris. And that stayed on for a couple of months, which made eating a bit difficult for a while. When they finally removed the stent, I ended up vomiting several times over the course of 3 days and was hospitalized on September 8th for a week.
I am still recovering from that.
@werefox 👀 💦 Wow, you are 🔥
Reminder if you have a Debian system to install the "busybox-static" package. Contains most of the standard Unix utilities in a single statically compiled binary with no external library dependencies - just what you may need some day to recover your system if you either fuck up or your filesystem is broken

@Felthry @heatherhorns It really is.
re: kinda musing over personal negativity in my posts
@heatherhorns Hot take, but the whole concept of sorting people into 4 neat groups is grooming children into accepting and normalizing class divides and classism.
No wonder the wizarding world is a neoliberal hellhole.
