And it’s endangered in most of its range!

I’m pretty sure it’s mostly his tone of voice and presumptuous attitude. But all that aside, given how many people in this country have said they want to see me and mine dead lately, I will be hanging on to my firearms, thank you very much, and if that makes me a ‘gun-toting readneck’ then so be it.

That’s the part that I think perhaps wasn’t communicated well enough. So much focus is put on the women getting it that their little pea brains decided that women were the only ones affected.

…Or maybe not. They disapprove of sex outside of marriage for men too… officially.

In reality they have a much more complicated relationship with it; a man who doesn’t sleep around isn’t virile enough, but in their eyes marriage is sacred, so boys are told ‘don’t have sex before marriage’, with a pretty hefty nudge-nudge-wink-wink and boys-will-be-boys attached.

But if they get sick for it, oh well, they were warned!

They knew. They knew that it prevented something that a woman could get during sex. So obviously getting it would just encourage girls to have sex, because they knew they were safe!

I guess that’s kind of like dozens…

Thank you!

I preface this by saying that I’m just a very amateur hobbyist, and even an expert would never 100% call a stone without physically seeing it, so if you really, really want to know I’d ask a gemologist. The ones in my area throw fairs a few times a year, and I’ve found many jewelers can actually be quite helpful about id-ing a stone, especially if you approach them on a slow day.

But to me the crystals look entirely wrong for agate and don’t seem quite the right shade of green for Prasiolite. The crystals don’t seem quite right in color or shape for Brochantite either.

Aurichalcite is a possibility for the stones in the second pic, although the crystals don’t look as orderly as Aurichalcite usually does.

The left stone in the first pic looks a bit like low-quality beryl, actually. Although I might see banding? Which would be more a calcite or fluorite thing. It’s hard to tell in the photo if it’s actual banding or just light play off broken crystal.

The right stone in the first pic might be chrysocolla, although usually it forms nodules rather than crystals like that. Calcite or fluorite might make more sense for that one too.

I do see some quartz in there. I keep trying to zoom in but then imagur switches me to some bullshit about net neutrality.

Their ‘Christianity’ says that as long as you go to the proper church and agree with everything the pastor says, you have an automatic ‘get into Heaven free’ card, so you can be an evil, mouth breathing cunt and it doesn’t matter.

No surprise, it’s popular among the lazy set that prefer to be told they can be as evil as they like, rather than being told they have to improve themselves.

Don’t those laws have caveats for tipped jobs, so the businesses don’t have to pay their employees minimum wage?

Optimistic of you to think they’re thinking of the next generation at all.

Seriously. I wish people would stop posting shit like this. It’s obviously written just to be left-leaning copium.
