Well, hard water means it could be Ca+2 or Mg+2 ions, but it doesn't have to be. Any metal or mineral in a "high" concentration (often as a dissolved salt) would make water hard. e.g. Salt water is hard compared to tap standards.
The water for the above user certainly could have been corrosive, or an allergic reaction could be the explanation. With a rural, rock ravine environment, any number of minerals could be in the water. You're also more likely to get other contaminants like toxins in water not properly tested and treated.
Almost. I'm not acting in bad faith and actually want to understand the viewpoint. This last time I was getting empty and irrelevant platidudes to my direct questions, and they didn't like me pointing that out. I've ended plenty of other conversations saying that we clearly have different opinions or values, but I understand better where they are coming from and thank them for explaining it to me.
Edit: I suppose I did sealion at least once back in high school. A girl snarkily asked me, "why are you wearing that?" And when I started to answer, she interrupted saying, "see, I don't really care." I told her that was too bad and she probably shouldn't have asked before following her until I was done with my extended history over my t-shirt.
Claiming a basic false thing as something true and saying that everyone keeps trying to gaslight you might work. Same as the stackexchange effect, people will engage to correct you more than anything else. Making it relate to insulting a large group would probably help too ig.
I take my time to request they explain their entire "argument" until they are so frustrated with their own inaccuracies they decide to stop commenting. Just had some fun with that yesterday. Make it clear to those who come after.
You saying “In bad faith” = i cant I am not trying to meaningfully disagree with you
You can prove it's in good faith by explaining your resoning. i.e. How is it worse, specifically? How will they possibly "sort their own mess out"?
If you don't want to, that's fine. Spouting empty platitudes is all I've read the past two responses. Any more will be met with shitposts by me to match your energy.
Ahh yes, because that solves the bystander effect which is why Kitty Genovese did not die from being stabbed in 1964. Also why the Uvalde police are heros for not participating in that school shooting. /s
You still haven't explained any of your reasoning, so I will assume it is in bad faith.
Finally, your quote is about interpersonal conflict, not violence and murder. Mr. Dyer was a therapist.
Can you please elaborate on that connection from your perspective. I imagine there must be some context I am overlooking.
Willful ignorance of atrocities does not have any chance of stopping or slowing them.

Yes. The only tatoo idea I have for myself involves dice, chains, and the words "Let's tempt Fate." While I would prefer an ideal situation, it's taking too long. I will support any act that brings aid, supplies, or more notoriety to the plight of Gaza. Even Al-Capone had a soup kitchen for the hungry Chicagans of the Great Depression.
Ty for the response. Glad to see another actually doing groundwork. Love all three bulletpoints, though it is really dejecting so many states have banned the use of ranked choice voting. Been advocating for that system for over a decade, myself.
Edit: oh, forgot to mention that it's easy for the internet to assign blame to those that protested voting the last election cycle, but that's only because they view people that voted FOR Trump as a lost cause already. I'm not willing to stop having serious conversations with those people, and more personal outreach would be my only bulletpoint to add.
I mean, it's fight and risk dying or stand aside while family, friends, neighbors, and children are dissappeared. I know what I would prefer in that imaginary scenario and am definitely not advocating for people to be violent against the national guard, ICE, or other federal organizations.
Can't really agree with you on this one. I would welcome and fight for more people doing the right thing for personal benefit. Seems a lot better than the current circumstances.
Hey, I don't want to assume; did you involve yourself in the last primary elections for the democratic party frontrunners? I don't have respect for people who protest voting AND don't even participate in primaries.
