I think OP was just doing a funny! It’s a cartography joke community.

No it’s just a lot of blood relatives in there it seems

Not legal children, I meant children of other members of the community. Not overt pedophilia, just weird bordering incest that I understand people being averse to.

They say they aren’t letting blood relatives have sex but I would still feel odd belonging to a relationship with my dad and sister where everyone is having sex with all of us.

I feel like downvotes kinda make sense given that they said group has a lot of parents/children and siblings. I don’t even know if this is bait or not.

I’m not sure about the founding fathers, but isn’t that exactly why the pilgrims came to North America?

It’s one of those things that doesn’t hurt anyone. If you’re not completely sure they’re into it, follow them whenever they leave. A lot of times they try to pick up pace but that’s cuz they’re excited to lead you home so make sure you speed up too! (Genuinely terrified of anyone taking this seriously so just a little disclaimer)

I got mine off of redbubble. I couldn’t find the original artist at the time, so it was probably stolen art to be completely honest. Maybe you could reverse image search and find it? That was something I didn’t know how to do at the time.

As for finding a partner who appreciates it, I think the best thing to do is go up to anyone of your preferred gender or presentation and say seductive phrases such as “let’s see that smile” or “where’s my hug?”

I feel morally obligated to say that I have a t-shirt with this on it and it scored me my boyfriend of over five years that I fully intend to spend the rest of my life with

Thank you for taking the time to respond and that makes a lot of sense! I really appreciate your perspective :)

I always feel like I struggle with a lot of the beliefs behind anarchism, but can I ask how being a pastor works in combination with it? Religious doctrine sounds like it would be at odds. (I’m sorry if this sounds condescending I’m just not smart about political theory and I like hearing people explain their viewpoints)

Old Friends by Simon and Garfunkel?

I wasn’t familiar with it either so here’s something directly copy/pasted from Wikipedia:

Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process by which molecular nitrogen, which has a strong triple covalent bond, is converted into ammonia or related nitrogenous compounds, typically in soil or aquatic systems but also in industry. The nitrogen in air is molecular dinitrogen, a relatively nonreactive molecule that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms. Biological nitrogen fixation or diazotrophy is an important microbe-mediated process that converts dinitrogen gas to ammonia using the nitrogenase protein complex. Nitrogen fixation is essential to life because fixed inorganic nitrogen compounds are required for the biosynthesis of all nitrogen-containing organic compounds, such as amino acids and proteins, nucleoside triphosphates and nucleic acids. As part of the nitrogen cycle, it is essential for agriculture and the manufacture of fertilizer.

It looks like something in the family phallaceae to me! I know them as stink horn mushrooms. They get into some pretty wild shapes and they smell dreadful

Thank you!! I haven’t noticed any weevil communities yet but I’m in as many bug groups as I can find lol

I normally find turtle chips in international markets where I live! (Mid-Atlantic United States)

Hey! Hope you’re doing okay :)

I wanted to update that I’m doing super well!! I commented on the first post in this community and things have changed so much for the better. There are times where I even like my body!

I’ve found my trans friends through school and through friends I already have! But if you want, I always love to have more friends :)

I have all of those games but I don’t have as much free time as I used to. Lemme know if you wanna talk!

If you wanna talk about it I’m open. I’m not past dysphoria or anything but I think I handle it okay and I definitely get what you’re going through! I’m sorry you’re feeling that way :(

Yeah I’m not usually one to be like “oh civility is of utmost importance” and I recognize how necessary unpleasantness and sometimes outright force is necessary to enact serious change. At the same time I really respect people who recognize situations where everyone involved can gain from a mutual discussion. Thank you again for helping me out! It genuinely makes me want to talk more on this site haha

Thank you so much for that response! It really layed out what I was curious about in an accessible way. Also just wanna say you’re super active on here so I see you a lot, and I’m always interested in your takes. I definitely don’t agree with you on some things but I respect your viewpoints a ton because of how you back them up with good faith arguments. I don’t need to hear more about small communities because I feel like you’ve outlined the things I was curious about and my general focus is more on how we can address larger societal issues, which I feel is best accessed through larger communities. But I definitely wouldn’t turn down anything you have to say about small communities if you wanna get your thoughts out there!
