I’ve noticed many introverts get exhausted socially because they’re maintaining a “persona” in public. They’re less drained with partners/close friends because they can just be themselves.

Ah, yes. Nothing fires up a debate quite like making someone else’s problems about you

Mu dude, ad fellow tesla driver, I fully concur!

I know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but here goes…

I have this friend who I used to invite to every social outing. Without fail, they’d turn me down, just like in that comic. After a while, I just stopped trying. I mean, you can’t expect me to always chase after someone who clearly doesn’t want to be included, right?

Now, here’s the kicker. I sometimes get comments from them or mutual friends saying they’re not getting the chance to join because I haven’t considered inviting them. And honestly? It makes me bitter.

Look, if you don’t want to participate, that’s fine. But your constant rejection has consequences. Consequences you brought on yourself and shouldn’t be my problem to fix. I’m not a mind reader, and I’m not going to keep extending invitations that always get shot down.

Maybe I’m the asshole here, but I feel like there’s a limit to how many times you can reach out before you just have to accept that someone isn’t interested in hanging out. And when they complain later? That’s on them, not me.

Somewhat boring, but I just love my merino wool t shirts. They don’t have any logos or swag, but they are incredibly comfortable, don’t smell and you just air them out every evening instead of constant washing. They are also expensive as he’ll for those considering them

I wonder if there is some definition gap in what Bethesda thinks makes a good game and what make a good game in the eyes of players.

They have probably done a lot behind the scenes improvements that warrants them to say that this has been the best to work on, but clearly it’s not the best to play.

This is just heartless 🙁

Reality check: Life’s more “flickering office bulb” than “cyberpunk neon dream.” Guess we’re stuck in Blade Runner: Budget Cut Edition.

I had bad acne issues as a teen. If I would give one simple advice to myself then I would say “just go to the doctor and get the tetracycline already. You don’t have to live with it no matter if you are bullied or your parents give you alternative remedies. Just go to a doctor and it will get better!”

The worst part of acne was that it bought severe depression, and not necessarily the kind that is easy to recognize as a teen.

Money doesn’t corrupt people; it’s more like a truth serum for the morally flexible. It’s not that money changes people; it just gives them a megaphone to broadcast their inner used car salesman.

Suddenly, those “creative accounting” skills you never knew you had emerge faster than a politician’s promises during election season. It’s like money has a magical power to turn “I would never” into “Well, just this once” quicker than you can say “offshore account.”

No one is perfect, and money reflects the not perfect side very well in many!

Some argue that the keys should not be able to pass through the door, even with ghost interaction. I argue that my keys can metaphysicaly appear and dissappear, also behind closed doors. So those are apparently my keys! 🔑🗝

Common theory l, that I have heard is that if business owns their office space then it’s value is inherently tied to profit margins. If office goes unused, value will drop, which affect bottom line, which affects boards willingness to pay out large CEO bonuses. So getting employees back into the office becomes vital for the leadership.

Thank you for highlighting the major political motivation

I just dont get it. The man rules the world’s largest country by landmass and is richer than the richest people in the universe, what the fuck are you going to do with more land like Ukraine. More importantly, why do so many people have to die for it. And how the fuck are you so incapable of admiting being in the wrong that you threten to nuke the whole world. Why are people in power like this.

This is just what I was hoping for. Thank you!

Been paying for years now, got a 50% price hike. Canceled on the spot. I like the creators I follow, but recommendations have sucked for me for several months now anyway.

Any advice for streaming ad free on Chromecast or Samsung tv?

John Wick, I mean who the fuck brakes in to a dudes house and shoots his dog.

Look, I get what you are saying and I do agree. However, I don’t think that comparing pedophilic relations to LGBTQ struggles is fair. One is consented relationship between consenting adults, other is exploitation and high probability of setup for lifelong mental struggles from young age.

I must admit, amount of comments that are defending AI images as not child porn is truly shocking.

In my book, sexual images of children are not okay, AI generated or otherwise. Pedophiles need help, counseling and therapy. Not images that enable something I think is not acceptable in society.

I truly do believe that AI images should be subject to same standards as regular images in what content we deem appropriate or not.

Yes, this can be used to wrongfully prosecute innocent people, but it does not mean that we should freely allow AI-CP.

Thank you for voicing the sensible, human and empathetic argument.

I would not fire the guy from his job, however, I would give him endless shit for using a work computer to watch porn. That’s just dumb.
