You'll realize that lines total bullcrap in 10 seconds.

Aries works for this too.

My trick with astrology people is "i don't believe in astrology because i'm an aquarius".

my trick with astrology people is pulling down my pants and taking a shit on the floor (i've been holding it a long time so it comes out quick) whenever they speak

"Thank God I'm an atheist."

What if they hit you with a lil', when the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars ♫?

I'm not a formal "astrologist", but I did choose bulbasaur in Pokemon Red. This means I have all of the good traits and none of the bad ones. I can mate with any other sign or pokemon but choose not to because bulbasaur is the wisdom symbol.

Scorpios are okay but by the time you can make more than a couple of them you're better off using your workshops to make onagers or just saving the resources for trebuchets.

Picking up on just enough astrology is a good way to pick up hot people with that crystal aesthetic. Then they look at my chart and its a recreation of the beginning of Toby Dammit so it doesn't last long.

The downside is that they believe in astrology.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

yea the number of cute lesbians who have astrology brainworms is agonizingly high

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

True, but there's worse things that someone can believe in. Upside can get on their good side with very little effort.

I was just thinking it's been awhile since we got a good kerfluffle and astrology is juuust stupid enough to be right for it. here's hoping.

If you have misgivings about astrology it's because you hate women (pay no attention to the people who have been discriminated against on housing or jobs because of their astrological sign)

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 months ago

Not liking a system that assigns value to human lives based on immutable characteristics determined at birth is actually misogynist and homophobic sweaty

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago

Actually, it's because you hate women AND queers

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Oh we've had a whole bunch, they've just never been sitewide brawls like some of the more notable struggle sessions

The audacity to be born in April. I think someone should kill you

My partner just finished a certificate program for astrology. I was definitely a skeptic but I support her, especially in things she’s passionate about. I’ve come to understand it as basically an elaborate way of tracking patterns in living things from people to stars.

I’m fascinated how the astrological calendar lines up with other calendars. It’s clear Netanyahu is following the Jewish calendar for the war and it’s lined up with events in the astrological calendar. There are indications that something major will happen in the conflict - my guess is agression towards Lebanon - in the next ten days with the fast of the 17th of Tammuz on July 23. The Anaretic Full Moon in Capricorn is on July 21.

That being said, she probably would laugh at the jokes in this thread and loathes armchair internet “astrologers”.

an elaborate way of hallucinating a "pattern"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

Or the other way: A built-in schedule to follow, particularly if that schedule comes with predictions of good/bad luck.

Ask em about Geminis.

I used to live with some astrology lesbians and they were very insistent on knowing my exact minute of birth.

No idea what they ended up doing with that information ngl.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You fool, that's all they needed for the ritual to discover your true name, now you've granted them power over yourself!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago

Oh no, I'm being overpowered by the astrology lesbians? How awful! soviet-bottom

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago

I knew a lady that was a Scorpio. She had a mug with her sign and the little positive traits on it. Absolutely wonderful person and character in her own right. I can imagine it was an annoying thing to hear people talking shit with actual bile-filled intent.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Astrology is just a socially acceptable way to ask when your birthday is.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago

...and then make sweeping judgements about someone with it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

I just like astrology because I invariably get the dickhead signs in all the different ways people look at it.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Scorpio is the most common sign so hating scorpios is actually elitism or something.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I’m a cancer and that’s the best sign. Suck it

You gotta problem with scorpios???? This is anti-scorpio discrimination! anti-italian-discrimination

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

What's wrong with Scorpio?

I could care less than the fact that it exists...

That being said, if you're born beyond July 31 and before Jan. 1, your day of birth is probably lame... why didn't ye get out of the womb earlier, plus, it reminds me of the end of summer breaks

Other than that, I don't see anything that stops them from being their own person...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Okay, but do you KNOW Vriska?
