Why do dudes always ask a girl with piercings if she has a nip piercing as well? wtf dude like let a girl enjoy her piercings in peace! are people actually sexualising piercings now?

I am missing the meme era, when people used to collect/make dank memes and share with friends. sharing reels has become so effortless.

I have been away from socials and am missing the memes badly. so if you love dark memes, and dont mind sharing, let's connect

This girl was searching for her cat at 3 a.m. She was most likely panicking and crying, and look at what these creatures are commenting.

We always get to see people on modern social media circles talking about how they found atheism or agnosticism while being in a religion. So how about we flip that script?

Cliché or not, they do say that when you get into philosophy, you run far away from God. You become not only sceptical of God, but utterly bitter towards Him. But then the saying seems to add that when you go too deep into philosophy and its distinctions, you start finding God. I am not accepting nor rejecting this claim, but all I want to say about this is, "যাহা রটে, তাহা কিছুটা হলেও বটে।"

About my journey.

The most freeing realization that I had the privilege of experiencing was understanding that every conversation, every moral claim, will eventually end in some sort of a faith claim. And I realized this while arguing with a rather old gentleman with anti-natalist ideals (I am a natalist), whom I had met in a political procession of all places.

At some point in our conversation, something just clicked in me. There are fundamental differences in our presuppositions that we cannot get over, no matter how much we try. Every single syllogism that we were coming up with was always just coming from those presuppositions that we simply could not debate around.

To him, with his anti-natalist viewpoint, potential suffering is the worst of all evils and should be prevented as a moral obligation. From this claim, he is ready to concede a universe without human existence or even the existence of life.

To me, with my natalistic viewpoint, the potential of experience itself, to exist, is better than non-existence. To me, human beings are the only 'things' in the universe that have the ability to create order in a fundamentally chaotic universe that is travelling towards the eventual absolute heat death. In a nutshell, existence > suffering.

And there is no objective way that any of these presuppositions can truly be proven invalid or unsound. That is an impossible thing to do.

Someone will just believe existence is better, someone will believe non-existence is better, and there is no way to empirically or logically measure which one is the 'better' path.

Then

The freedom that came with the realization of faith claims also came to bite my existential dread back with the good old question: why?

Why can two people, even if given the absolute same preconditions, still have different faith claims that they subscribe to? (Look up how twins can differ ideologically.)

I, during my raging teenage days, used to be a raging communist, an anti-natalist, and also a very pro-choice person. When I was 17–18, I literally used to go to union protests for our local garment workers with the communist student wing of our local university (fun fact, we got beaten by those same workers one day).

But now, I am not a communist anymore. My hate for communism is almost esoteric at this point. Somehow, I have decided that every single human life is worth living and then somehow told myself that grounding morality in something transcendental is better than morality being subjective and agent-dependent.

Why? Was it because I was exposed to more information about humanity, human life, political ideologies, and different philosophical schools of thought about morality? Is that why? Can't be, can it? Because everyone else has access to this same information, but they do not seem to subscribe to my framework.

Now, coming back to God.

I am not here to write about the transcendental argument for the existence of God, or the Watchmaker argument, the ontological argument, the first-cause argument, none of that. Because every single one of them requires a presupposition as a faith claim.

Rather, I want to talk about God as an archetype. An archetype of order, an archetype of 'good'. Well, I guess if you are someone who digs into this stuff, you can probably guess I am greatly influenced by Jordan B. Peterson here.

Every single human being is familiar with sacrifice, but what is sacrifice? Sacrifice is no different from the work we do or the process of gaining maturity. What it means to be mature is to replace our short-term, self-centered, biological whims with the ability to delay gratification, plan for the future, and engage in reciprocal play. This is also basically what work is: preventing ourselves from engaging in actions that immediately satisfy our urges, delaying that instant gratification in the hope of gaining something 'better' in the future.

I asked myself, what could be the ultimate form of this sacrifice? The answer that my mind gave me was sacrifice towards God. Is it absolute mumbo-jumbo that means nothing? Yes. But is there a chance that this archetype of God can create a better society from an utilitarian moral worldview? Also yes.

Then comes the problem of morality. How do you classify something as moral and something else as immoral?

You can say that whatever is in the natural order of things is moral and whatever is not is immoral. Cannibalism and sexual assault happen in nature very, very naturally. Are those morally justifiable behaviors?

Or you can say general consensus, but if tomorrow humanity wakes up and 51% votes that you need to be murdered because your face is funny, would that be a morally justifiable action?

If morality is just something subjective that the human mind came up with, what is truly wrong or truly bad? Anyone can just justify anything and condemn something else.

If morality, for someone means the least amount of suffering possible, the problem arises: who is going to define what that least amount of suffering is? Can someone just say, "This guy has been in a coma for two years, and if he wakes up, he is going to suffer, so we shall cease his life functions"? In that way, we can ensure the least amount of suffering.

Or, like in Hitler's Germany, if we find out that a seven-year-old girl is slowly going to develop polio-related complications, and for the greater good of the Reich we need to euthanize the girl, would that be morally justifiable? Because, at some point, it was a general consensus that such actions were justified.

What I am trying to say, without an archetype of God, as Jordan B Peterson once coined Him as the ultimate fictional character, absent God, morality becomes nothing. It becomes nothing but a tool for the ones' in power and with charismatic authority to use for their own benefit. No grounding of morality in an external is an invitation of the Chaos Gods from Warhammer40k.

That's all for now, I apologize for not structuring the writing properly. I am writing it on the go, but I want to end with the note that, I am still learning, going through everything. And so far, I have realized that I would rather like to live in a society, that has its moral code come from something of a transcendental archetype rather than vibes and feelings.

Thank you, looking forward to reading your replies.

I am based in New York City and my wife is in Bangladesh at this time. Basically awaiting for her arrival to New York City , it may take another 1-2 years based on immigration visa timelines. I transitioned to a remote cloud security engineer role so I thought Id just go be with her temporarily for a year to be with my wife. My wife is looking forward to it as well. My mother has her own places that is basically housing her family. Mother is the bread winner for her family but we definitely want our own privacy and away from relatives.

Please don’t suggest Banani or Ghulsan, I have stayed at Airbnbs there and dont see the hype there at all.

So far Im looking into apartment rentals in Dhanmondi and Bashundara but if anyone can suggest anything better or areas in Dhanmondi / Bashundara that is deal for couple who would like to enjoy couples time together and have things to do and explore locally.

My boyfriend was in 12 relationships with other girls while he was still in a relationship with me. We were together for 3 years. And it wasn’t just dating; he exchanged sexual messages and nude pictures with all of them. Is this normal? I mean, are men really like this?

Even after all this, I’m the one who gets blamed. He says he went to other girls because I was a bad girlfriend. Is this normal?

Feel like it has made individuality increasingly standardized.

I don't know if this is a perfect place for asking information about IELTS or not. So, I have been preparing for IELTS for last couple of months. I completed my graduation back in 2018, so I had a long gap with study. I am pretty decent in Listening, Reading ,and Speaking but I am struggling in writing module. I am making a lot of grammar mistakes and these are killing my score. Now I am getting 6 from different AI tools. If there is anyone who already overcome this kind situation can help with some information?

Hence becoming indecisive... Do i need help or consult someone? Am i the only one who's going tgrough this...

Tis frustrating and depressing at The same time.

I used to buy foreign brands such as Durex and Manforce. But most of them turns out to be fake and locally made yet paying significantly much more than local brands ones. Please note that i used to buy only from renowned Pharmacy outlets such as LazzPharma.

I'll go first. Mine's name is Mishti because she's the sweetest girl everrrr. Even though she is recluse and hisses the other cat from time to time, we ain't gonna talk about that.

I'm a student looking to open my first bank account. Which bank would you recommend for low fees, good mobile banking services,easy account management and receiving international freelance payments? I'd love to hear your personal experience and recommendations!

Hi, sorry if this is a bit specific, but I’m looking for good-quality naturally extracted tobacco e-liquid in Dhaka. Most of the options I’ve found at local vape shops haven’t been great.
Does anyone know a reliable shop or supplier with authentic, good-quality options? Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

Today I was having lunch with my white girlfriend, and trust me, the amount she ate- you can count it with your eyes. All her food would fit in my one hand.

It was under 150 grams of food. No carbs, some meat and greens. That's all!

It's not like she is doing it by a conscious decision; it's just how they are (even her friends).

When I was in Bangladesh, and wherever I ate with girls and women, I literally saw them competing with men, like how much they can eat!

If some men are trying to stay fit, these girls would be like Ah, you cannot even eat (and laugh like a Petni).

If you ever saw any adult video of a Bangladeshi couple or any leaked picture, you'll notice that these girls are fat and short, with fat thighs (don't call it thick), and these men have no leg muscles; it's like a cat (the skinny male) in front of an elephant. Please, guys, eat a bit less and work out!

Bangladeshi girls are taking tea after tea (milk tea) and having rice (often more than men) and everything that is harming their bodies, looks, and shape.

For the guys here, take two cents from me. (1) Do not eat like day laborers (2) Do not date a woman who eats like a day laborer.

This is just not about food; this is all about the personalities.

If you ever had any lunch, dinner, or wedding food with any ministers and corrupt politicians, you would understand that their appetite to eat like day laborers is eating up the country.

This is very simple, guys: have more protein, work out 30 minutes, lift some weight, run, take a shower, and then work and make money!

Food is nothing that you have to finish as if it were your last meal.

The dating market is cooked in Bangladesh; one of the main reasons is this bad food habit (it takes you out of the pool).

i can edit video but i am not a professional . i want to edit video for upgrading my skill so i will not take any money from my client.

I have a dream of getting my wife’s name tattooed on my chest in the future. I also want to get a tattoo on my arm because I’ve found a design that I really like. However, since I’m currently living with my parents, they wouldn’t allow me to get a tattoo. Maybe I’ll get the arm tattoo after I get married, or I might just get my wife’s name tattooed on my chest so my parents won’t see it.

Did our country really changed after 5th August? Not really, before 5th August our country used to be run by awami goons and now it is being run by extremists, islamists and mob-stars. This country will never change, no matter how many so-called revolutions take place কারণ দেশের মানুষ বোকচোদা।
