OceanSoap, to news in Philadelphia journalist who advocated for homeless and LGBTQ+ communities shot and killed at home

Yup, which is why I’m inclined towards #1. Newer articles today state people close to him think it’s either domestic or drug related, which again, points more to scenario one.

This is one of the most cartoony things I’ve ever read.

I’ve been in tall buildings during an earthquake before, and yeah, it’s scary.

But if you look into how buildings are fashioned to withstand earthquakes, the swaying is built-in. You want that sway, basically.

And you were in probably one of the safest cities to have an earthquake when in a building ever.

Still, scary!!

I’ve thought about camping with my great pyrenees mix before, but he’d immediately bark as loud as he could at those hogs, and would cause a stampede. I’ll just not camp.

I just had a meeting yesterday where my boss talked about a guy at a substation site who literally tried to lean a metal ladder against a bus.luckily he was stopped but he said the guy got so close he was sure he was about die right in front of them.

Yikes. I was in Thailand for a bit and packs of wild dogs can be so scary!! I’m glad you I got away!!

OceanSoap, to asklemmy in What values are most important for you to instill in your kids, and why?

Honesty, integrity, self-control, perseverance, and how to treat others well.

and how to navigate media to get to the truth of the mater, no matter if it agrees with your ideas or not.

Two likely senarios:

  1. It’s someone he knows in the LGBT community who has beef with him over something not related to his activism. Maybe he pissed off someone he was trying to help. Maybe he was caught in a weird romantic triangle. Maybe he just befriended someone who is psycho.
  2. Or, it’s someone anti-LGBT who did it due to his activism or related to that.

Could be either at this point.

I mean, shootings in bad parts of Philly and Camden aren’t new, but they’re gang-related. This sort of crime detailed in the article is not common, even in Philly. This guy was targeted. Someone he likely knew was in his home, because no one had to break in (I highly doubt he didn’t lock his door), and 7 shots is overkill. Journalists aren’t being targeted like this on the regular.

OceanSoap, to memes in any soapy cilantro enjoyers?

Uh… yes, I do, does having all three of those mean somethimg?

OceanSoap, to unpopularopinion in I see no point of taking pictures of monuments or tourist spots.

So what if you know what I look like, I’m taking the picture for me, not for you.

Not sure how old you are, but you sound young. Unless you’ve got a photographic memory, your recollection of things will start to fade, and those pictures will bring back memories you’ve forgotten. I’ve been traveling consistently for around 20 years now, and the photos are so precious. It’s not about capturing a monument you can look at from other photos, it’s about capturing you in that time as you were.

OceanSoap, to asklemmy in What game did you play a ton of in the past, that you were never good enough to beat?

I’m not a gamer, but I got really into ff8 in high school. I tried a bunch of other rpg games back then too, but I could never beat them. I always got to a point where I wasn’t strong enough to win a battle but didn’t want to go back and grind, so I’d eventually give them up.

…not sure what that says about me as a person.

OceanSoap, to asklemmy in Does the American accent or British accent sound better?

I’m always so curious when this is the answer, because I’ve traveled a lot, including to those three places, and no one has ever said they hate the American accent in my presence, even those who hadn’t heard me speak yet.

Why do you think my experiences are so different from yours? Am I just, in all my years of travel, lucky to only run into nice people, and you rude ones? or is everyone simply lying to me, but being truthful to you, for some reason?

“Most of the world” is a pretty ridiculous claim to make for this statement of yours.

OceanSoap, to asklemmy in Does the American accent or British accent sound better?

Curious, what makes an American accent sound like nails on a chalkboard to you?

What do you dislike about them so much?
