Star racism is still racism. I don't make fun of it, I simply reject it as esoteric bigotry.

A friend set me up on a date with a coworker of him. then she spent about 20 minutes drawing my astral chart. She had notes, books and even an iPad app.
Eventually she concluded we were not compatible, while I concluded the same about 20 seconds after in.
Unless of course they're born Giliac, in which case they need to be rounded up and put in cages for the safety of humanity
Most of the insane women that are crazy enough to spend time with me are, at the very least, in to horoscopes/tarot, so I maintain a base level knowledge on the subject.
They find it charming when I use I Ching to consult the Oracle when they can't decide what they want for dinner.
I ditched someone when she attributed something to her star sign, because I have no interest in a relationship with someone stupid
Astrology, tarot, any religion whatsoever
I'm not going to be able to respect them, and no relationship works without respect
Lol no, I make fun of astrology with my girlfriend
In the same way I feel bad for all the women out that had to put up with conversations about crypto for the last decade, the astrology for dudes
Crypto really is the astrology of white guys isn't it.
I have no idea why you are bringing racism into this.
It’s ok to be casually racist against white people because it’s “punching up”. Which implies white people are superior. Which is racist against non-whites wait…
... that's like saying billionaires are superior, because you punch up at them. It's not about being better, it's about privilege.
I'm an expert in this field. i went from atheist YouTube in 2008 to what the trillbillies call "spooky pussy" in 2009 and i have remained in the spooky pussy camp since then, I don't regret it.
well, i regret it a little
So what does any of this mean to those out of the loop?
it means that the transition from evangelical child to edgy teen atheist to normal functional adult puts you at a crossroads much like the dichotomy presented in this meme. when i was 19 years old i did indeed have to choose whether to mock spiritual people, or "wrong" people in general. it was in fact a pretty witch who convinced me not to do this, and as a result i spent the next 10 years learning how to be normal to people who do not share one iota of my relationship with truth. Nearly 20 years later i do still enjoy talking to witches, in fact i can't resist it. i maintain a staunch secular humanism, which serves as a narrative anchor for anyone who wants to manipulate me with their magic spells.
I see this wall of text and wonder why "Nearly" is capitalized but no other words are. It's like reverse German. 😆
Or he could find a woman who's not superstitious, or go gay.
How do you "go" gay?
I've heard that a huge percentage of people have latent homosexual/ bisexual/pansexual leanings. So just lean into it I guess.
