If you've invited a lib into your apartment, it's entirely on you. Don't be surprised if they start colonizing your apartment and call it "Aid" or "Democracy" or something.

[-] [email protected] 33 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah, it's like inviting a vampire into your home and then being surprised when it tries to drink your blood.

If you don't invite a lib in, they're bound by arcane laws of civility to stay out.

The scorpion wouldn't sting me while on my back, then we'd both die.

The scorpion complained about wearing a mask during the pandemic. The scorpion fears not its own demise.

I can't tell people not to I touch things in my apartment? Fucking what?

Don't these people worship property and ownership?

[-] [email protected] 33 points 3 weeks ago

Only as a convenient vehicle for dominating their surroundings. The moment it conflicts with what they want they snap.

You already know the person who wrote this article wants to keep their shoes on in the apartment.

They care about property, not possessions. It's why they're anti-piracy even if you're only using your own possessions to do it.

This is the stupidest take on hospitality I've ever seen. This person needs to be beaten over the head with a copy of Derrida's "On Hospitality" until they become unconscious or learn something, whichever happens first.

[-] [email protected] 19 points 3 weeks ago

That's the Derrida book I think about the most. Unironically a great read

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

It has informed so much of what I do, working with food and conviviality. I come back to it every now and then, and it's still fresh.

It is a source for one of my favorite ethical essays, too.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 3 weeks ago

Have you read Levinas? Derrida's later stuff takes a lot of inspiration from his ideas about ethics and justice

As a cracker, when I enter someone's house I immediately go to their couch and begin rubbing my dirty shoes into it while yelling "fuck your couch!"

Do some crackers actually wear their outside shoes in bed? I see it in movies sometimes and it's such an absurd annoying detail.

Please don't ask people to not shit on your floor when entering your apartment. It's rude.

When you invite people into your home, you need to let go. You can't be like, "You can't piss there" and "You have to stop shitting everywhere" and "If you jerk off in my living room, you are in trouble." Hosting is letting your guests enjoy themselves.

I will simply not be friends with anyone whose idea of comfort is shoes on in the house. Freakish behaviour.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Why do they not want to take off their shoes when they're someones' place? I don't understand the weird hills these jackass white libs want to die on.

you're either taking off your shoes at the door or leaving my apartment, so take your pick

Even I don't walk in my home in my shoes, ain't no way a visitor is either.

Wtf I support castle laws now (but only against white libs who refuse to take off their shoes).

[-] [email protected] 28 points 3 weeks ago

The solution to this is to just not let anyone in your home, like I do.

People of colonial complexion apparently have a different definition of what is "rude". In any Latin American country I know, for example, "rude" is doing whatever you want in other people's homes. What to expect from a culture that normalizes staying in bed with shoes on. And if you're supposed to act like you're at home wherever you are, why leave your house?

[-] [email protected] 17 points 3 weeks ago

it's the individualization of the mindset of colonialism. so at least they're being consistent here.

I love to make people feel comfortable in my home and I feel like taking off shoes helps with that because it makes a visit much more personal and homely for the guest. Shoes off is so much more comfortable, I don’t understand why anyone would want to keep their shoes on in someones home.

I live in a place where it’s abnormal to remove your shoes as guest but no one has ever complained.

I'm sure this Romilly Newman is 26 years old just like Wikipedia says, but if this article is anything to go off of, then she

Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. ^2^ With his wife’s full knowledge he kept back part of the money for himself, but brought the rest and put it at the apostles’ feet.

^3^ Then Peter said, “Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? ^4^ Didn’t it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn’t the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied just to human beings but to God.”

^5^ When Ananias heard this, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard what had happened. ^6^ Then some young men came forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.

^7^ About three hours later his wife came in, not knowing what had happened. ^8^ Peter asked her, “Tell me, is this the price you and Ananias got for the land?”

“Yes,” she said, “that is the price.”

^9^ Peter said to her, “How could you conspire to test the Spirit of the Lord? Listen! The feet of the men who buried your husband are at the door, and they will carry you out also.”

^10^ At that moment she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband. ^11^ Great fear seized the whole church and all who heard about these events.

Going into someones house with shoes on would very much be considered so rude where I live.

I mean in winter shoes are covered in snow, in spring and autumn they are often wet. Or just otherwise dirty. Why would anyone do that to someones home?

My work puts me in peoples homes and the first thing I do is take off my shoes, because of course I do.

I used to have a AmeriKKKan partner for a while and the dude lived his life with shoes on. Like put them on getting out of bed. Even had them on lying down often. Seemed so uncomfy to me, but I suppose if the insides of houses are treated the same as the outside, you would want shoes on because the floor must be dirty all the time.
