Let's talk about rules.

265 Upvotes

Howdy, folks!

This subreddit hasn't had codified rules in a while, mostly because the people here have usually been really chill with one another.

However, the vibe has changed over the past few months, and we've noticed some nasty behavior popping up and lurking around our community.

We don't allow bigotry like racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia on this subreddit. Generally speaking, we expect folks to be civil and decent towards one another.

Recently, we've noticed a distinct uptick in the amount of trolls who have been showing up in the comment sections of the various protest posts. We know they're trolls because they're almost always attacking the OP or trying to diminish the protest, and they usually have user activity across many state and local subreddits.

These aren't local folks - they're people coming into our space from elsewhere to stir up trouble.

Since this sort of behavior has only been getting worse, let's discuss our subreddit rules and which ones y'all think would be good to have for this space.

For a start:

  1. Be civil and respectful towards one another.
  2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or bigotry.
  3. No spam.
  4. Follow all of reddit's rules.

What other rules do you think we need?

Howdy, y'all. I guess it's time for me to tap the sign again, because every time there are protests in the Triangle, someone goes around and mass reports all of those posts.

Strangely, we also tend to get a lot of people who post in all sorts of local area subreddits, all over the country, just to act like they're upset about this protest or that protest, and yet have never commented in our community before. Fancy that.

So there's some underhanded fuckery afoot, and y'all should be aware of it.

This subreddit is devoted to the protection and well being of our community at large. That means all of y'all. We cannot support the extrajudicial detainment of anyone, citizen or no. This country was built on laws and principles, meant to be a shining beacon of democracy where people would get a fair shake.

One of the cool things about America is you can come here and become American. It's one of our country's major strengths.

As a country, our diversity has repeatedly protected us - patriotic members of German and Japanese communities helped the US translate enemy communications during WWII. The Navajo code talkers weren't declassified until the 1970's because they were so effective - their codes were never broken. There's also the Tuskegee Airmen and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all-Japanese unit which became the most decorated unit for its size in US history.

Today is also November 20th, a solemn day for trans folks across the US. It is the Trans Day of Remembrance, when we remember those we've lost to murder or suicide over the years. Unfortunately, I recognize more than a few of those names, and I hate the way the list gets longer every year.

Times are tough for our Hispanic and LGBT friends. People are anxious and scared. Bigotry and bullshit have been stoked and set loose upon the country; hatred has been running rampant. People are going to need protection, support, and resources.

This space is meant to be a refuge and a resource for our community. If you can't respect that, or if what I have said here is somehow objectionable to you, please leave.

Rehab locations?

Trying to find info about rehab locations that aren't $10,000. It's not court mandated. I want to go to a place that doesn't allow substances for 2 weeks. Is that possible under $5k?

Anyone else have bad experience with Triangle Sinus Center despite their great reviews?

6 Upvotes

I walked in feeling optimistic and walked out feeling like I'd been dealing with a fast talking used car salesman.

They provide a free CT and then use that to tell you how bad your sinuses are with little regard for actual symptoms.

I was charged far more than my insurance co-pay. They said I hadn't met my deductible yet, but in reality, it was for the nasal endoscopy they planned to do even before examining me.

My chart is full of fabricated symptoms and treatment history to justify the endoscopy and pave the way for surgery I don't need.

The few negative reviews I could find sound like similar experiences. In this day of high deductibles, this is quite costly for many people.

Looking for others with similar experiences with this office.

Any place that sells seaweed soup (miyeok-guk)?

Have a friend whose wife is giving birth soon. They are both Korean. I read that it’s traditional for new postpartum moms to eat seaweed soup. I’m too nervous to try making it myself, so I’m hoping someone knows of a good place to buy it!

Belief and Nonbelief in the Black Community

16 Upvotes

Triangle Freethought Society is excited to be present Candace R. M. Gorham, LCMHC, the President of the American Humanist Association to speak on Nov 1 in Morrisville. More information can be found on our event page. This event is free and open to the public.

Title: Belief and Nonbelief in the Black Community

Black atheists, humanists, and nonbelievers have been increasing significantly in recent years. However, Black Americans remain the most religious demographic in the country. This talk will explore some of the history of religion in the black community, how things are changing, and the future of non-belief in the black community.

Candace is a licensed professional mental health counselor. A former ordained minister turned atheist-humanist activist, she now writes and speaks on the intersections of race, religion, and mental health.

Candace entered the secular community by joining the Triangle Freethought Society (hey, that’s us!) She gained greater recognition with the release of her book The Ebony Exodus Project, which examined why Black women leave religion, and she has since authored On Death, Dying, and Disbelief and contributed to Women v. Religion.

Built a free/quick tool to check if plants or foods are toxic to your pets before you have to rush to the vet

0 Upvotes

Quick side project: I created PetGuard AI after getting tired of digging through conflicting forum posts every time my pet got near a random plant or dropped snack.

You can snap a photo or search an item to see whether it’s safe, mildly toxic, or an emergency for dogs and cats.

Links if you want to try it out:

Would love your thoughts and suggestions on how to improve it!

Natural Hair Salons

7 Upvotes

Hello, I am a African American woman looking for a hair salon in the area (although traveling is not an issue) to help me maintain and care for my 4c natural hair. Even though I don't have anything against these styles: braids, perms/chemicals, locs, crocheted add-ins or curl softeners... I love all of these styles, but I'm looking for someone to help me with maintaining my natural hair.

If the salon isnt in the area, that's fine and I will travel, I just need someone who will focus on the care and healthiness of my hair. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated.

My wife needs a haircut and is constantly complaining about the price of women’s haircuts. Men’s haircuts aren’t cheap anymore either. Will you please recommend some women’s hair stylists for her. Cary preferred, but at this point willing to travel.
