Everyone has one. lets try to recognize and be grateful of what we have!
Being born into a place and time where I’m not killed or imprisoned for being autistic and LGBT+
yep, the past aint so bright as the future
My hair turns copper-gold in the summertime when I’m out in the sun for a few days in a row.
Thats rad!
Being born in our times.
I never felt the need to compare myself to others. aka, I’m competing with no one but myself.
I consider that a huge advantage, but who knows maybe I’m wrong.
i have a decent understanding of unix-like systems.
Other than randomly being born in a western democracy ranking high on living standard, happiness etc.
I was a good boy and put in the effort in school. I get paid accordingly and have a relatively stress free job.
I am helping many needy peoples.
i live on one of the richest, most developed countries in the world with a good social system and universal healthcare and retirement.
Eventually I get to die and my suffering will end.
I don’t feel any part of me that itches to make posts like this on the internet, and I appreciate that advantage.
Gottem
Born and raised in Scandinavia, life here is amazing in almost all aspects.
good public facilites?
Facilities as in toilets?
Nvm… That’s just what my dad says when he goes to the loo…
Yes we have good public facilities, at least where I live. But on the other hand, I do live in one of the richest countries in the world, so would expect it to be good too.
I have thick thighs and a good understanding of Linux :3
oh my ;)
That warrants a proof pic
Looks like a cozy space!
Its very cozy with my programming socks and blahaj :3
Huge dick.
You should try being nicer.
I dunno. I feel I get worse and worse at things the older I get.
So, you did not die young?
yeah that ship has sailed.
White, male privilege.
Yeah nothing to be proud of but I can’t discount how powerful this one is, now that I’m “woke” to it.
Like I have worked for people for years and just not known they were racist or sexist, only for them to let it slip. And then you see behind the mask.
Realising why there are no people of colour in my office, or women with any kind of power. Realising I would not have this job if I was not a white man.
As a queer person, it feels even weirder. Like I’m a spy and my cover could be blown at any moment.
Even as a straight I kinda feel that way sometimes, all theses assholes keep telling on themselves to me. It’s also depressing how many of them there are
The number of times I’ve been “accused” of being gay just because I don’t have a problem with homo couples. Sometime in the 200Xs I stopped correcting people and went with “so what if I am gay” which added a real satisfying record scratch moment to arguments.
Let them believe I’m gay if they want, it’s none of their fucking business, and they should be aware there are queer folk in stealth mode literally in every aspect of their lives.
I also like to act like I have no clue what the punchline of the racist\sexist\homophobic\hateful joke they are making is, having them explain it out loud gets em really awkward
Yes! Weaponized naivety is a powerful tool.
I hate it when you see those images on other SM of poor white people and some knuckle dragger says “I see no white privilege here”.
Why do you hate that?
