The baby will have a very very high chance of getting birth defects.
The risks of smoking during pregnancy are serious, from premature delivery to increased risk of miscarriage, stillbirth or sudden infant death. A smoking pregnant woman will inhale about 4000 chemicals, and carbon monoxide that will go in the bloodstream and reduce the oxygen flow to the baby.

Do not smoke, do drugs or drink alcohol while pregnant.

How do you deal with getting older? Society doesn't value women as they age and this idea of needing to be successful while young. I'm barley mid twenties but I feel pressured to get my shit together asap or else things I do won't matter anymore.

Yes, babies are born with a nicotine addiction, as well as a host of other health problems and birth defects. Please dont smoke while pregnant. My aunt and uncle used to volunteer to hold newborns who were born addicted at their local hospital and they would talk about how heart breaking it was.

Not to sound dark but we're all going to keep getting older, and older and eventually die, so you just have to put things into perspective. We don't have a lot of time here, so let's just try to keep moving, do our best, and not obsess over dumb societal expectations who literally won't matter in the end.

No. 521244

>>521164
Other anons have already given good advice, but I'll put in my two cents too. You just get over the idea of being young and successful. You don't have to be young to achieve success, which is also an extremely relative thing. Is it being a millionaire? Creating revolutionary technology? Dedicating your life to ending world hunger? Starting a family? Running your own business, no matter how big or small it may be? You probably have your own idea of success, and you're allowed to achieve that ideal without a strict time limit. As long as you achieve it eventually, isn't that all that matters? Someone out there will always give you shit for it, whether it's because you haven't achieved it while you're young, or because they don't think it means you're actually successful. There'll probably also be plenty of people applauding you for achieving success, no matter what age you do it at! Do yourself a favor and learn to stop giving a fuck about what society thinks, because the sooner you do, the better off you'll be.

Whenever I see people so enamored with young people, all I can think about is how men usually love young girls because they are usually dumb and naive and easily controlled. Why doesn't society value women as they age? We're not that much different than aging men. Is it because our bodies become less valuable for sex in the eyes of men? Or are we worth less because we've become wise enough to say no? I personally in the idea of becoming old. I want society to fuck off, so I can do whatever the fuck I want in peace.

Getting your shit together when you're young is good, setting up a foundation for you to succeed in the future is good, but the things you do will always matter no matter how old you are. There are old people out there who have dedicated their whole lives to learning or doing great things, but I don't think you look at them and think "what they've done doesn't matter" just because they're old.

Wouldn't agriculture cause the opposite effect? Humans as hunter-gatherers would have eaten more meat and less plant material.

This is objectively a retarded dilemma, but I'll be spending about $90 on this pair so figured I'd ask you guys.

I'm getting initial earrings– picture attached.

My style is not "basic bitch" or preppy at all, so I don't really like the idea of the earrings being my actual initials. Is it dumb to have them be "X O" or "F Y" (for 'fuck you'– that was my sister's contribution lmfao)?

The nutritional point of the development of agriculture was having an availability of grains, so - carbohydrates. Fibrous plant matter is low in energy so I imagine the amount consumed stayed about the same/increased only slightly.

I worked at Whole Foods before the Amazon thing and it was pretty enjoyable

I don't know if it's changed much, and I hope it hasn't, but it was a pretty great experience and there were a lot of cool things to look forwards to as far as perks

This is probably a regional thing, so no guarantees, but my bosses actually listened to me. I complained that we threw away so much food at the end of the day, food from the hot bar and other places that we couldn't keep food from; really I just wanted to take home the food myself, but I thought at the very least they could donate the food to local shelters–they ended up talking to their bosses and they got it done!

I'm sure it will work out great, good luck and congrats!

No. 521532

the main reasons are
-varied, cosmopolitan diet instead of primitive diet so you can't reliably have ghost shits every time and you very well may get liquid shit even when you're not sick
-limited mobility so can't squat every time or
-thicc ass cheeks which evolved when we decided to walk on two legs and as a consequence shit can get on your ass cheeks

so yeah if we stayed ape mode we probably wouldn't need to wipe much but we gained the ability to abstract on multiple orders and make choices independent of our instincts and this is one of the many consequences of that

That can't be a coincidence right, did he stalk me or something? Can you find people on insta using their phone numbers? I have no idea how he could've otherwise because of how little personal info I have on my insta and tinder, I don't even use facebook or any other social media. wtf

You can, there's contacts option somwehere in discover tab, I think Instagram app is even doing it automatically. It takes no effort, so don't worry too much, he's probably not stalking but took a 30 seconds to check your insta or it's just algorithm on your side if you still have his number saved.
I suspect instagram is secretly using a lot of data, I created fresh art account last week to post cringy art, no name, no phone number, no connection to other social media, and the same day it showed in suggestions of people I haven't talked with for years. Probably it can acces data from google accounts and browser cookies.

No. 521637

>>521536
Theres a high chance tinder and instagram/facebook cross reference their users' data. If you read the user agreement, you will see these apps use a "unique identifier" for you that allows them to track what you do, what other apps you use, how often etc. It's highly likely this guy did not research you or anything but your apps just picked on his profile as you matched or whatever and oh, there he is in your other app that communicated with ours !

That's a prime example of why you should really read user data agreements very carefully. People have no goddamn idea what they give away in terms of privacy then these things happen and they're surprised.
And that's not even the worst of what happens with your harvested data.

How do photographers manage to take photos of random people (like poor communities, marginalized groups, women on the streets, etc.).

Or just in general, how do they take photographs of people?? Do you have to ask or something? Has someone ever had a problem photographing people outside?

I'm lost, I just want to know if there's any protocol/etiquette to follow when you take this type of photos. I want to go outside and experiment with my camera, but I don't really know where or how to begin.

Not sure about most other photographers, but here's an article that focuses on Brandon Stanton (the dude who runs HONY) on how he does it https://www.shutterbug.com/content/brandon-stanton%E2%80%99s-humans-new-york-power-storytelling-documentary-photography

He's posted somewhere else before, either a video or a text post somewhere about the specifics of what he does but I can't find it right now (chats with them and tries to make them feel a little more comfortable with him before snapping a photo or something). I think you should definitely ask for permission and maybe explain why you want to take their photo (e.g. something of theirs/about them made you catch their eye, what you plan to do with the photo, why you're taking photos in the first place of people).

Basically you have two IP addresses, a public one for the Internet, and a private one for private networks (like your home network for example).

Will I get in trouble for getting more merch credit than what was actually paid for an item? My mom bought an item that was on sale online but lost the packing slip and couldn’t find the emails and when I went in store I realized she didn’t give me her card that she paid with so I said a merch card was fine (I figured it was since my mom and I go there to shop a lot). I don’t know the exact price she paid but I know she got it on a pretty good sale price and that’s why she bought it in the first place, but in store it rang up full price and the manager told her to just credit it back full price then (even though I said we got it on sale too). I gave my ID for the merch card but now I don’t want myself or my mom getting in trouble for using it??? Will we get in trouble in the future? Can they even track stuff like that?

If you go for it he will absolutely date you IMO based on your post, and if you have been friends who enjoy one another's company for that long there is a high chance that your relationship will work out long term, you just need to be able to communicate kindly to overcome the normal hurdles of romance.

Yeah, don't worry. I like to think I have a lot of knowledge of what makes a harmful person, I've had a LOT of experience with it – and the few times he's been kind of weird, I've told him so, and he thanked me for letting him know it was overstepping boundaries for me, and stopped. I know this is probably trauma-brain speaking. That being said, I do know that I was homeschooled my entire life, and through the things that have happened to me, it has stunted things. I'm working to get much better.

I'm very concerned too, it makes me really sick, it was an anonymous ask sent to me and they seemed to know a few things. My biggest fear is that it's my younger sister? But it doesn't seem like her, not just to do that but the way it was written, and we're so close that I trust her to talk to me straight.

I know on Instagram you can see which account viewed a story, but it doesn't show any IP address and the data is only available (at least to the account holder) for 24 hours.

Anyone has tips on how to reset a fucked up sleep cycle ?

Context : I'm temporarily on sick leave so no longer work like I used to. I have taken the bad habit to nap during the day (feel horribly sleepy all the damn time - more accurately I "crash" sleep without even realising sometimes, no matter how much coffee I down). Then night comes and I can't for the life of me sleep like I used to, I stay awake no matter how hard I try. And then fall asleep around 6am until 1pm/2pm. Since I no longer work it's hard for me to wake up at all.

I hate it. I tried sleeping pills but they make me have vivid nightmares and feel even more sleepy and worsen sleep paralysis. How the fuck do I go to sleep at 11pm and wake up at 6 like I used to ?

Im 5' 8" and 135 lbs and i look fat as fuck

How do I know if I have coronavirus vs the cold vs the flu? I commute to a city with a lot of international people and take public transit. A day ago I started feeling symptoms that I would normally attribute to a cold: shortness of breath, fatigue, stuffy nose/ear pain, legs aching, but now I'm afraid that I have the virus. I took my temperature yesterday and it was 98.1 F/36.72 C. Would my symptoms have gotten much worse by now if I had the virus?

Idiots will associate menstrual abnormalities with weight, but it's actually due to hormones.
Obese women have more estrogen because fat cells produce it, and that causes either heavier bleeding or a cessation of it depending on how their bodies cycle the hormones. It doesn't happen to everyone, and interestingly the problems can persist even after weight loss because the excess fat cells shrink but never disappear once they have formed. Some fat women can have normal cycles and others have irregular ones.

Time in the market > timing the market. The safest and most effective strategy is to regularly, consistently buy index funds/ETFs (look it up and get started with Vanguard, it's like buying a chunk of the market at once. Don't bother picking individual stocks) over a long period of time, and to start EARLY. Waiting a couple of days really doesn't matter in the long run. It's a good time to get started, but any time is a good time and sooner is always better than later.

I don't really have much useful advice but I started bouldering a couple of months ago and I'm going to a meetup later this week (seems like there's a lot of rock climbing/bouldering groups on meetup!) and I'm hoping it goes well because I enjoy it and I hear the community is super friendly (I am currently sad and lonely at my gym and want to make friends desperately lol).

Maybe take those very low investment art classes like where people get together and drink wine and paint drunk paintings? Or pottery, or even knitting! I think I can make new friends and get along with people pretty well in social situations, but that initiating that initial conversation is always the biggest hurdle to me. A language class might even be a good place to meet new people since you're forced to make conversation with the other students! Then you can later join a conversation table in your area if there's one and continue practicing your language skills and meeting new people. Good luck anon!

Has anyone else had a super high libido and then suddenly just had it die off? I feel like I’ve always be hypersexual (from an inappropriately young age that may or may not be from childhood sexual assault that didn’t really leave too much of a traumatizing mark on me tbh, I just know and remember that it happened) up until maybe like last year when I turned 24. I was undeniably going through some heavy periods of depression and depersonalization that I’ve been working through and nowadays I feel fine! Some mild episodes of depersonalization, especially around my period, but I do a lot better most days. My sex drive hasn’t really come back though. I can get off eventually if I decide to masturbate, but I’m never really in the mood to ever do it nowadays, I’m just so used to masturbating frequently that I’ll just decide “alright, time to masturbate” as if it’s just some chore to get done lol. If I used to daydream about some steamy stuff or read some fanfics I’d really get *~*~hot and bothered~*~* but nowadays I don’t even feel aroused for that long. I don’t feel “broken”, it actually feels freeing to not be so hypersexual and constantly thinking about the next time I can get off, but it kinda feels like my mind hasn’t caught up to how my body feels. My libido went from a million to zero in such a short span of time lol.

Is it weird not to care about people/friends much ?
I'm a loner and have been for a long time now. I do make friends, pretty easily actually, but never seem to be "proactive" at keeping in touch. I've had friends tell me off about my apparent lack of interest. One friend insisted for weeks that we meet for lunch, I just couldn't be bothered to meet. Another said she had to insist for me to come to one of her parties after I blew her off a few times. It's not the first time somebody told me that too.
If I'm honest, I do like my friends but deep down, I don't feel like i miss them, or need to see them much ? As long as they're fine, and are not in need of anything or in a bad situation, I'm happy to see them once in a blue moon…I'd rather be home on my own or out doing my stuff (mostly alone too).

They don't actually love them. They just project their fantasies onto them. I know because I had an ex who was like that, who I actually decided to go out with after knowing each other for a few years. It crumbled because I wasn't the cool girl(tm) he thought I was. I had actual standards and wouldn't stand for him treating me poorly. This guy who used to worship me online, telling me I'm the most perfect girl ever, would send me 300 messages a day at some point, but he couldn't bother showering for me daily or being considerate in any way.

>>525084
It took me a while to realize this fully, but pedophiles don't like children because of physical attraction. They like them because they are easy to overpower and control. It's not unusual for them to like women who are smaller, weaker, and have highly neotenous traits.

I fit that body type despite being in my (soon) mid-20s. One of the things I constantly think about when it comes to dating is that the dude is attracted to me cause I look almost a decade younger than my true age.
I don't wanna attract creepy fucks like that…i wish I could just look my age…seriously it's nothing to be happy about.

Does anyone else's cat go "hmph" when jumping down? My cats did this, they were mother and daughter so the daughter probably learned it from her mother and I haven't heard any other cats make that sound, but I don't know if that's just because the other cats didn't jump so frequently or because my cats were weird.
It sounds like a small grunt, like I make when I exercise, but really quiet and high pitched. It was so cute

Speaking as a burger who went to a state school, ymmv.

>How different is college from highschool in terms of schooling and assignments?

This really depends. I found college easier in some aspects, and difficult in others. I went to a highschool that had a >90% college bound rate for students, so the coursework in my highschool could possibly be considered tougher than the average highschool in my state. I'll probably never know, but I did struggle a lot with different subjects. I was a pretty average student in highschool, but I did pretty stellar in college. It's probably the combination of more time to think and breath (breaks between classes or even if I packed my schedule for the day, I spent no more than like 4 hours of the day in class) and subjects I actually wanted to learn about. How difficult your class is also depends on your professor too. I also found that having office hours to speak with your professors about shit you don't get (or just to befriend them!) and a dedicated tutoring center where you can get 1-on-1 tutoring for no extra cost, definitely helped me too. The material is definitely more challenging and you might be swamped with assignments (or have less assignments but they'll be harder), but it's not impossible to understand and I find that college has so many more resources to help you succeed.

>Do the classrooms look different?

Depends. I've had classes with anywhere between 15-30 other students, in a regular sized classroom with a chalk/white/smartboard at the front, and classes in HUGE lecture halls. Depends on the class you take. I imagine any college would have a mix of different classrooms (my school was considered small (roughly 6k students) and we had all different types).

>Can you pick when you go to school (different classtimes)?

Yes.

>Is it cheaper to live in a dorm or in an apartment with a bunch of roommates?

Probably apartment. Room and board made up the majority of my costs (my tuition was half the cost of room and board lol). A lot of my friends dormed the first year and then moved off campus after finding friends who they wanted to move off with.

Good luck anon! I look back on my college years quite fondly, and I hope that you'll have an equally, if not more, wonderful time! Join some clubs, attend freshman socials if your school holds them, and don't be afraid to talk to people! Everyone is nervous when entering college. There will probably be some mean shits, but they aren't worth your time. During orientation, a speaker told said to us "your GPA will be the average of GPAs of the people you surround yourself with" so hang out with the smartest people you can find. Not saying their smarts will rub off on you, but you can probably look to them for help if you need, and I found that surrounding myself with hardworking people who knew when to say "hey, can't attend [XYZ social event] because I have to study/write this paper/something related to academia" helped to normalize/instill good study habits and they would indirectly push me to work harder.

Also, befriend your professors. Seriously. It might come in handy one day if you've fucked up and need an extension on one of their papers, or when you need a recommendation for something, but also it's just nice to get to know them! I still email one of my favorite professors/major advisers to this day! He gives good life advice. During my last year of college, he really helped me with my undergrad thesis too! Even though he wasn't the one teaching the seminar/knew literally nothing about the subject.

Is a company committing unemployment fraud by firing employees, telling them to apply for unemployment, with the intention of rehiring those workers after an indeterminate amount of time? Someone I know just got laid off by this store that’s closing because of the coronavirus, but the company fully intends on hiring them back after this is all over but put out a public statement that said they were encouraging those employees to apply for unemployment in the meantime.

Two stupid questions here:
Has anyone else ever had their bladder weakened after getting a nasty UTI? I mean consistently. A few years ago in high school I had one, and since then my bladder has weakened significantly. I never had to rush to go to the bathroom before, I could just hold it. I caught a bad cold recently (it's entirely a wet cough, I don't have Corona) and now it made me realize it's a bigger annoyance than I thought since I pissrd myself a bit from coughing too hard. Most of the information about stress incontinence on the internet is mostly about menopausal and pregnant women with not much information about getting this as a direct result of a UTI. I know I should eventually see a doctor for this, but I wonder if anyone else has a similar experience?

And does anyone else get horny af from kegeling? Lol. I have to but it gets me too overstimulated and makes me want to stop.

It's definitely a thing but eventually with time you should regain control again. Mine improved. Not sure if it's the same kind of stress incontinence as a UTI though.

How do cello players know where to place their fingers on the fingerboard since there are no markings (as opposed to like, idk a guitar)? I know beginners use tape to mark off spots to put their fingers, but I'm still confused about after the tape comes off.

Just had a weird call from the clinic about my blood labs. It was my first time going there so my doc was new to me.
They were testing for stds (came back negative) but apparently they also did a blood glucose test and that came back as prediabetic so they want me to start metformin.

I wasn't told to fast and I ate a burger and soda 40 minutes before I went there. So wouldn't my blood glucose be really high for a blood sugar test I didn't know they were going to run? I wasn't asked if I ate or fasted beforehand either, I didn't know what kind of tests they were doing besides the one for the std. I've never been told I'm prediabetic by an office before.

Am I right in thinking they're jumping the shark to give me medication before I've even had time to make lifestyle adjustments or come back for a second blood lab when I've actually fasted? Thoughts?

I brought it up to the receptionist telling me about the result and medication over the phone. They're not medically trained, so she just asked if I wanted them to put the order for the med or not so I said to just do it. If it's a ridiculous price at the pharmacy I'll just not get it.

I have a follow up in a month. I'll make sure to fast that visit and maybe the medication could be useful in the meantime while I make some adjustments. I doubt it'll show prediabetes the second time if my theory is correct.

Just be an entertaining date. Flirty, funny, and have topics to discuss. Preferably if you can hone in on their hobbies, find some way to talk about them positively to endear them to you.
Talk about your likes and interests (aka introduce what you want them to buy for you). Vet the scrote to gauge what his buying power actually is, obviously a pizza man isn't about to buy you nice things on his wage. Go out on dates to places like malls or shops where men'll be pressured to pay and it'll be less on the nose when you coincidentally find something you like there.

Red flags that you will get nada from a scrote:
>he won't even pay for your meal
>he's too sexual and keeps trying to get you to come back to his place or send nudes
>he openly bitches to you about past hurt from ebil womminz
>you're putting in all the effort

Anon you should definitely get another blood test done, you’re absolutely right that your blood glucose would be high if you ate/drank before being tested. Also, ask your doctor if they tested your hemoglobin A1C because that’s a more accurate test which gives an average of how much glucose was in your blood for the last 2-3 months. Just testing blood glucose alone is not enough to determine if someone is prediabetic or diabetic, I’m surprised your doctor wanted to put you on metformin right away without testing your hemoglobin A1C. Also, most doctors would recommend diet and exercise to prediabetic patients before putting them on medicine, so I don’t know why your doctor jumped right to prescribing you metformin. Good luck, I hope you can get tested properly and hopefully aren’t prediabetic, that would suck right now.

Honestly, yes, to an extent.
Disassociating during a traumatic event is common and I think it can really fuck with a person’s ability to relate to themselves, their surroundings, reality etc, especially if they’re very young and abuse is severe, chronic, or inescapable.

It’s almost like they think their own thoughts aren’t really their own and come up with shit to cope with that? Whatever it is, I don’t think it’s entirely conscious.

Yeah having a sad 'inner child' is common based on this kind of experience. Trauma in the first few years of life is capable of creating that child inside but even the child isn't a seperate personality, Just feelings that couldn't be processed. That's why we have age regressors

For people with multiple adult personalities I'm sceptical. The most famous case ever reported of this turned out to be a complete elaborate fabrication and people believed it for decades. Without that case I don't believe these new youtubers would even exist with their stories now.

Yes, just not the way the media, pop culture and Tumblr LARPers have spun it. IMO, it just makes sense for the brain to sometimes malfunction to the point where different personas can take form, based on the person's need for protection. It just seems like a reasonable (albeit problematic) defense mechanism to intense trauma or stress, to me.
IMO, the main problems with the recognition of DID are the distorted, almost fantastical way it's been presented to the public, and the fact that people who don't have it can easily claim to just for attention, to reap certain benefits, or to avoid taking responsibility for their own actions.
You can probably tell someone's a faker if they're advocating for all their personas to be respected strictly as individuals with their own autonomy, with no responsibility placed on the "primary" persona. That kind of person has obviously never had to deal with things like waking up to their bank account emptied for no reason at all, finding themselves lost in places they don't remember going to, etc. I think people who have the disorder should have carers in their life to watch over them and ensure they don't make destructive decisions when they go into different mind-states. Even if the person is mostly self-regulating, it just seems too dangerous of a condition to leave to chance.
Adding to that, a lot of people seem to mislabel all sorts of dissociative disorders (or their symptoms) strictly as DID, and I feel like that mythologizes things too much. There's definitely a lot of crossover, but DID isn't exactly an umbrella term.
Just to give a break from the usual internet profile of this kind of disorder, here's an interesting document showing case studies of dissociative disorders in black South Africans, all adults ranging from their late 20s to their mid-50s (so you know it's not just young adults who watched a movie or read a book and are trying to be cool):

Look up how to find bedbugs online (you have to look in the corners of the bed against the frame and under the mattress, in seams of the sheets etc.) and show your parents the information so they can attack the bugs more directly. Otherwise in this situation you might be screwed. Bedbugs are a nightmare and usually require a professional to wipe them out.

PureGel works nice, but it may be hard to find outside of salons. You need the base/top coat as well. It's pretty easy to remove using acetone cotton/foil wrap.

Also make sure you get a nice buffer (like the blocky foam purple ones) to lightly buff your nails before applying the base coat or it won't adhere properly.

Even applied correctly, frequent gel polish can be rough on nails (especially if they are naturally thin) because of the buffing/removal process, and there's also the UV light from the lamp on your hands to consider. I still do it about once a month because it's a lot easier and faster than regular nail polish. I'm also not a professional, I just like nail shit.

it kills your tastebuds and gives you a risk of mouth cancer.

essentially it kills all the bacteria in your mouth, even the good ones, which is not good to do often.
if you brushed too hard and have a bleeding gum and are worried it might get infected, you can use it this one time, but then again hydrogen peroxyde is better for you and the taste is more neutral.
people who have receding gums gargle hydrogen peroxyde also bc it slows down the bacteria eating them down. peroxyde wears down your enamel but when your gums recede you're already old enough so that using it everydays buys time for your gums and only slightly weakens your enamel but not as bad as if you were 20 and subjected your enamel to 60 more years of peroxyde.

if you're worried about bad breath, just thoroughly brush your tongue when you're done with the teeth.

but why, what determines the value of money? Is it not just a totally man made system? Can we not just say how much its worth?

No. 531544

>>531522
currency economics is kind of confusing as it includes things like population, employment rate, production rate and things of that nature. mainly it relies less on the country's physical money, and more on their power and resources. simply put, a country having more money doesn't mean the money has more value. even within that country, making more money will cause the value of that currency to decrease. for example say the price of a gallon of milk is $2. it's not $2 because it is worth $2, but rather, $2 is only worth that much. this can even vary from city to city.
this happens organically as well, think how in the US even just 20-30 years ago $1 bought as much as $5 or so now. and with things like currency conversion, the conversion rates have to do with the country's economic standing and how much demand there is for it's goods.

i hope i could at least explain a little but, but ask me to clarify if you need.

No. 531545

>>531544
thankyou so much, idk if this will make any sense at all but say in theory, a country printed more money, and gave every citizen 200,000 annually or something, but put in place some kind of law that would forbid the rising of the prices of items, could that work? would that cause problems?

No. 531563

>>531545
that's the same idea as guaranteed minimum income, only much more extreme. if a country had the capacity to reach something of that level it would be easier to just get rid of money all together and just let goods and services be free. as nice as that sounds though, it would probably cause problems in a lot of industries since capitalism and money provide incentive to work specific jobs. despite this being an obvious ideal i personally don't believe humans are altruistic enough to do things without a tangible form of gratification. like, even if every good and service is produced and performed by robots, would enough people volunteer to build and maintenance them for free when the bulk of the population doesn't have to? logically, there should be but i'm skeptical.
to answer >>531542 money is definitely a man made system entirely. most currency systems evolved from direct bartering, and the idea of money was to create a kind of universal middleman to streamline trade. instead of trading goods directly, the use of currency means that your goods have a measurable value which you can use to buy other items. the more societies advance the more important it is to have a measure of value for goods and services, especially on a global scale.

No. 531566

>>531563
hmmm that's interesting thankyou. When you say the capacity to achieve it what do you mean, as in what would it entail? Bc I mean like literally just printing the physical money, giving it to people and then having a law against price gauging.

Also just out of curiosity about your opinion, do you think any industry other than capitalism is possible in a way that would be preferable/successful? I feel like I and a lot of others would volunteer to do things if it meant we could live in a society without money, because I would view that in itself as a tangible benefit

by capacity i mean like economic capacity. if everyone can just buy goods, money becomes worthless, so the economy would have to allow for enough goods for everyone. also honestly thinking about it, for a society with little actual employment requirement, it would be easy to create a "draft" system, so everyone has to work very little throughout their lives. it would be a lot easier than a volunteer system like that and no one would be able to complain. i think society without money can and will eventually exist.

I feel it's more born out of the desperate state capitalism keeps us in, but if you were confident that you would always be able to have what you need that there wouldn't be that desire for profit. But I guess certain people always will desire power, and the people in power obviously wouldn't want to give up their power to allow this kind of society.

Just saw Joker recently online, so where did the "incel" controversy even come from?

I apologize if this has already been asked, but: given the controversy about how it would supposedly "incite incel violence" I was expecting something very different with much more specific allusions to real-world "incels" - in the end, it seemed like Phoenix's Joker is a pissed-off white guy, sure, but the similarities end there. His grievances are pretty broad and held by all sorts of different people these days, far from just incel types, and there's not much in the way of sexual frustration implied.
This being the case, does anyone here think the controversy might have been overblown? I also wonder if certain reviewers have let their politics get too much in the way of their criticism and pre-judged the movie based on what they assumed the politics would be. cause I didn’t see anything related to the incel narrative at all

I mean if you have a very obvious mustache I think it's most likely a hormonal issue but could also be genetic. Almost all women have slight stache that's more or less visible depending on the angle, hair color, etc. Which is why many shave it off especially if they use makeup so it's more neat.

How worried should I be about my period being irregular? It's been irregular since 2014 when I was 16 sometimes really severely like going from a 15 day cycle to a 90 day cycle but sometimes only slight fluctuation. I've gone to the gynaecologist a couple of times over it and they are always pretty dismissive because I'm young and say it will probably become more regular with time and that it's nothing to worry about but I still worry about it a lot.

No I've never been on birth control, they suggested it but I felt like it would just mask the symptoms and not help any underlying problem. I got my hormones tested in 2014 and 2016 and they were normal but should probably get them done again, if they were normal would that mean I couldn't have PCOS? I'm just worried I'm infertile or something and won't find out until it's too late and I could have done something earlier on

It doesn't have to mean anything but it doesn't harm to get some tests done, especially since you're worried about fertility and all.
PCOS symptoms differ from women to women. Sometimes the hormones are off, sometimes it's only cysts, irregular period etc. and sometimes it's all of it together.
But having pcos doesn't necessarily mean you can't have kids; it'll "just" be harder to conceive.

i think the general concept of fame is inevitable. in even small groups, there's always going to be someone who has a certain magnetism, who is popular for either positive or negative reasons, and who people are interested in. it happens naturally all the time: kids in high school who were inexplicably popular but there was no particular reason why, internet famous people who didn't really try but who amass thousands of followers, local legends who were household names be fore even film, personalities in history who people keep attracting people's interest long after their time, etc. but "celebrity" is usually an attempt to artificially create that phenomenon for people who don't actually have an "it" factor. a lot of celebrities aren't the type of people who would ever get famous or popular organically, so they have to force it with media manipulation and money. that particular version of fame is man made and has only been around for a short time, and it might not last much longer imo. just look at this site, a lot of people find random people more entertaining than curated celebrities if they push the right buttons, and a lot of celebs are desperately trying to follow memes and internet trends as an attempt to have natural fame. i think it's possible that eventually people will get bored with that kind of celebrity for good. especially because celebs used to be able to trick normies into thinking that celebs had some kind of unattainable beauty, but now that we have endless makeup products and tutorials, cheaper plastic surgery, and facetune, we all know that if we wanted to turn ourselves into some kind of celeb looking thing we could, so it's not special. the mystery is gone. models still might have exceptional genes, but most models are not in fact celebrities. "beautiful" celebrities are the same ugly-average inhabitants of your hometown but with an extremely curated image. now that we plebs can also curate that kind of image if we want to, what's the point of even looking at celebs?

Find a writing discord server that doesn't allow minors (since those that accept kids tend not to actually write/read). You'll be able to get critique on individual chapters/scenes/however you break up your writing, and if you make friends there they'd probably be willing to read larger pieces (and some members might be pro editors, though that's rare). If you're writing an entire novel/screenplay it might be hard to find someone willing to read and review all of it for free, though, unless they have work you can review in return.

Also, if you're willing to interact with people who like shit text games, Choice of Games' forums has an ad section where people advertise their services/can recruit others. Most people on there aren't very skilled but a bunch will be willing to do it for free.

It's a hard question but just for me, I found that I do this mostly when the decisions I'm making are not truly what I want but more for external validation or what I think others want.

No. 533002

>>532970
set goals for yourself that are possible but that you find genuinely respectable and important, and take steps to achieve them. it's ok if it would take years to complete them, your self esteem can still improve from just embarking on them. also, decide BEFOREHAND how much effort you think is reasonable for achieving these goals. how many days a week? how many hours a day? if you don't decide ahead of time you might compare yourself to people who work more or less than you.
basically the trick is to shut up the part of yourself that says "that's not good enough" by giving it no more material to work with. if you decide to dedicate yourself to something you really respect, you can't logically think that you're a loser or insignificant. if you decide how much time and effort is healthy to put into your goal, you can't logically say that you should be doing more or you should be further along by now.

when i've compared myself to others in the past the most it was because i had no real plan and a very vague idea of what "enough" effort is.

I dont mean to be the TND of lolcow but I have a 12 year old python I've had sense a baby who I feed 2-3 mice to at a time depending on frequency. (I like rats and the amount is sufficient according to vet).
Anyway I always buy from petco, I know I should start my own colony but I'm living free at my bfs moms, and she is afraid of mice and I promised they would be gone within seconds.
The issue is my state has a shelter in place ordinance. Pet stores are open but even the local ones have closed off their small animals to have less for the staff to worry about

So where do I get mice?? I know I can go to some creepy guys absent from reptile forums but like I dont want to do that?

I suggest if you really need to feed your snake you bite the bullet and go get feeders from the weirdos.

I got my bottom two wisdom teeth removed a few months ago because they were impacted and causing a lot of pain. The surgeon recommended I do all four, including my top ones that weren’t impacted, but I was paying 100% out of pocket (no health/dental insurance) and even though the non-impacted teeth were cheaper for removal, the impacted ones themselves were a pretty penny so I opted to get them removed later (i.e. if they ever started causing issues). Well now… one is starting to hurt and I figure it’s going to try to erupt… I know it isn’t impacted because of my xrays, but my mouth isn’t really that big so I worry that they can’t come in properly. Would letting it erupt push my back molars out of position? Would it be a dumb move to put off getting them taken out until after the worst of this pandemic passes? Not the highest priority I guess, my biggest worry is it shifting my teeth out of position because I had to deal with braces for so long and I’d like to keep my aligned teeth that I suffered years for lol

Is there anywhere I could go where I'd see like a collection of breakup/bad relationship texts or communication?

Because my friend had a shitty bf, she sent me the screenshots and he was gaslighting her. He was deflecting, and when she presented solid proof he would switch to another charged point she had to defend herself from that so the proof was all forgotten. And I knew it because I'd seen it in my past relationships, then in hindsight I was like wait a damn minute. Because I was helping point out the faults in what he was saying and he found out he fucking hated me and tried (and succeeded tbh) to distance us.

And I think when you're involved in the relationship, if you're not familiar with what they're doing and you're going off the basis they care for you as much as you do them then you can be easily manipulated. So it would be nice to see text directly from a manipulators mouth in other situations so it can trigger a warning when you're in the thick of it.

Since you feed your snake regularly missing a few weeks isn’t going to kill him just make sure he’s hydrated.

Although we both have had that struggle where we don't have any career we really want to do (that pays well), so I think he truly understands rather than getting bitter like most men would. Then again, he makes enough for both of us so it's not like we're struggling at all. If he couldn't support us both I would obviously start working.

You just have to find that person who doesn't find you a burden and rather wants to be with you because they like you as a person. I know plenty of people would find me a burden, but my bf and friends don't and that's what matters. And the most important part is not taking it personally if they don't want to be around you. There are always people that will want to be with you and support you, the hard part is finding them.

At least with the internet now it's a little bit easier. Just be careful because I'm not going to lie, there are men who will want to manipulate you. Be sure to vet very carefully. And don't just accept shit or abuse because I can tell you have an inferiority complex. Just because you have your problems doesn't mean you don't deserve genuine love and acceptance from others. If you become financially dependent on someone your life is in their hands. Make sure you have money stashed away in case you need to get out if things get serious. My bf realized that I might feel uncomfortable and that's why he let me keep my own account and money while letting me access his if I need it.

It's not wrong, and I think you could meet someone. NEETdom will turn off some, but you're looking for someone who sees past that. But please anon, try getting to a better mental state before dating if you can. You might love someone, but having other friends and being able to spend time away from each other is helpful. If you're online dating, you're going to go through a lot of idiots. Also take into account your finances. Down the line, if you're with someone shitty and don't have funds to leave, you're fucked. So you should have a bit saved up (which must be hard on govt money, unfortunately).

I'm so confident I want to do this with him. I'm totally in love, we are graduating this year and I've already got my first industry job in another city. We both need an appartment this summer anyways so this seems like the next logical step.

People tell me it's a big step, and I don't want to downplay that, but falling asleep with him every night and having him cook for me seems like a dream. I think we can make this work, but a few of my friends say we're going to fast. By the time we'd ideally move in, we'd be together for almost 11 months anyways.

You can't force yourself to have DID, retard. The difference is knowing that tulpas are a part of your mind. As far as I see it it's either a fun thing to do with your mind or a coping mechanism. And there are way worse coping mechanisms that don't involve meditation or active visualization

I remember some old, old drama about this IG (I think?) famous girl (pic related, or someone with hair VERY MUCH like this, I can't recall for sure) who claimed the hair was all natural and it came out it was extensions or wig or whatever.

Did this actually happen/does anyone else remember this? Or am I mandelaing lol?

No. 534916

Never had IG or know of this drama but my googlefu turns up Imogen Fox? She has or had a business that sold hair extensions.
I mean I don't doubt the picture you posted is a combo of her real hair and extensions, but it's obvious she pushed all the hair in the back towards the front and teased the fuck out of it for max volume in that specific picture.
She can't do it irl as evidenced by the video, and even at the start she admits to extensions and yet the final result isn't like the pic you posted at all. If she was trying to sell her extensions based off her shooped photos then I can see why people would have called that dishonest presentation.

I think she has nice hair but she's oversold it in pictures. From a glance I notice she often uses strategic angles and cropping to hide the weird shit she's doing to her parts and hairlines to get those shots.

I might still be misremembering but I think the girl the drama was involved with also may have said (or lied) about being "race-mixed" and that was part of the scandal. Like she was coveted as making natural curls popular as some sjw-race-justice thing and then got slammed when it all came out false sort of deal

I've gone through pick me and low standards phases through my 20s, at this point I'm looking for a man with an acceptable level of emotional intelligence and empathy, and not be shut down when I'm expressing my emotions. I assume many women have also been thorugh the journey of learning to respect themselves and believe they should be respected in turn.

How common are good men anyway? Looking into the characteristics of my male best friends they both suffer from repressing their emotions and being unable to talk about their issues, same with my little brother. Do all men turn out this way? Am I actually expecting too much from a man to have emotional intelligence?

I'm not scared of never having a man, but I am scared of choosing a single life, and having beloved friends who drift away when they partner up and me being doomed to repeat that cycle because I won't lower my standards for a romantic relationship.

I know fabric masks are useless, but they’re better than nothing and now my state is advising for people to just have their faces covered. I’m planning on making a thicker (probably like 4 ply) fabric mask, and I know higher thread count is better, but how can I check online on say, Joanns, what the thread count of any given fabric is since it doesn’t seem to be listed? I can do basic sewing just fine, but I’m shit at fabrics.

I hope that you get some good responses of people who have had 30s+ dating experience anon, and not just snarky one liners
I'm nearing my 30s myself and have the same concerns. I'm currently in a great LDR but seeing my friends go through the hell of dating and pinkpill threads makes me nervous that if my relationship ever did go bad I would 'settle' out of fear of the dating lottery game. From my older friends it does seem that eventually "all the good men are taken", and any 40+ decent guys were freshly on the dating market through divorce or else were cripplingly solitary types that they only encountered through work instead of actively dating. I try to keep optimistic by hoping that if enough women raise their standards then men will have to adjust to it, or that I'll be happy with only cats as company, but it's hard to live this fantasy sometimes.

It does work but its so much harder than it looks.
Dont let those gymbros fool you into thinking its so easy and that all you have to do is put your mouth on the roof of your mouth.
There are many problems and difficulties such as tongue mouth biting at the beginning especially if you have a narrow palate.
And there is also the problem of trying to keep your mouth as close to the palate but at the same time to avoid touching your upper teeth to not deform them.
and if you have a asymmetrical jaw then mewing is even more harder because your tongue will try to go to the left/right side of your mouth depending on your jaw.

PLEASE ANONS ! I'm a complete fucking retard and I know it, I just need advice on what to do here:

Stray cat gave birth in garage about a week ago. She trusts me enough to get about a foot from her nest, I leave food and water right outside and shine a light to check in them. Tonight I thought for sure they were dead so bf and I got then out of the nest and took them inside for 10-20 mins. She went and hid somewhere in the garage. Turned out to be ok just a little cold. we put them back in the nest as they have a better chance with her.

Is she going to abandon or kill them? Should I keep them and take care of them or hope she comes back? Can't really sit and wait to see what she does as the nest is in a weird spot. CaN only hope and maybe check in an hour but I fear they will be dead from the cold by then. I know I fucked up by grabbing them, I just really want to know what to do as I feel like a massive piece of shit now.

there's a possibility she could or would kill or abandon them either way because of stress. i would take them in even without you touching them. if the cat is very stressed because of the weather and her surroundings there's a very real chance she could kill or abandon them anyways. seen it happen unfortunately many times because people assume the mother will definitely take care of them as long as left alone. also more likely if she's a young mother. if it's too cold for them in the garage you need to take them in regardless of her reaction.

Recently I saw a bunch of nitpicks about her 'flabby' 'cheesy' ass. She's slim af with a perfectly decent butt, I couldn't see any cellulite at all. Most girls would be happy to have one like that or to be as thin as her, even if it's not the ass of a professional athlete. It's like anons lose all self awareness when they can nitpick with the excuse of a cow being a bad person. I have to wonder, do the anons posting that have perfect asses? Are they instagram fitness models? I doubt it, or they'd have better things to do than sit and criticize random cows. I'd be incredibly embarrassed of myself shitting on someone's body if I didn't have an amazing one myself.

Obviously nitpicky anons have problems, maybe they are unattractive and insecure or they are attractive and it's made them nasty and arrogant. But the lack of perspective blows my mind, it's like they've never seen an average looking female body before and make judgements relative to models and celebrities.

the first type are fine in moderation and can be funny if the cow deserves it. the second type is obnoxious and makes the site look bad, and the people who do it are always the most defensive and accuse you of being a wk/the cow if you point out how dumb it is.

Some people are just mental and the isolation and having access to internet has drawn it out from them. Fat people are easy targets for punching down on when other people can't regulate their stress and anger properly.

I'll be honest, I've seen that behavior elsewhere on the internet. Some people act HAPPY that groups they don't like ie. fatties, boomers, etc. might be high risk. Whereas I've never met a stranger that pissed me off so much that I'd wish plague and death on that person by hoping a characteristic they share with a common group of people takes a hit. On Reddit yesterday I saw an upvoted comment that said something like "CORONAVIRUS IS GONNA PUT HAES TO THE TEST!" As if it's worth it to have people fall seriously ill and die just so they can feel right about internet arguments on haes. I don't know about the patients, but I've known a lot of overweight doctors and nurses. We sure as shit cannot afford to have them fall sick and die right now just so fat hate redditors can feel smug for five minutes. People can't get a grip on themselves, they'd be screeching for a fat doctor to help them if they were ill.

Ok since we were at this topic a few hours ago and I do have a question, why are some people here so quick to defend an anon who writes something like how she's a decade older than a boy she met (most of the time the boy is like 18) and she's interested in him and all that jazz? It's not the first time this has happened either, I've seen my fair share of anons who are way older being interested in 18 year olds.

I mean not to sound like some #Equality faggot right now but if a man that old was interested in an 18 year old girl, everyone here would be shitting themselves and calling him a creep/a pedo and telling her to please leave him, but when it's the other way around and someone calls the anon a pedo, others are defending her until their last breath and how sister is just a late bloomer etc.

Genuinely not trying to sound offensive or start an argument, I just don't understand this logic at all. Sure, an 18 year old is legal and they can do whatever the fuck they want and be together with whoever the fuck they want, but it's still so weird and mentally they are still teenagers and haven't even experienced the "real world" at all, so I don't understand the appeal of wanting to date someone that young.

My boyfriend is 6 years younger than me and is 18 lol I still feel bad about it tho but since the beginning I told him that I am waaay too old for him, and I always make sure to listen to what he actually wants. I've been groomed at 13 by a 35yo man and many other older men so I know to be careful.

I think it's pretty obvious that the older person is just looking to use and take advantage of something that the younger and more naive person has got. (I'm talking major age gaps though, 8+ years or enough time for them to be at different life stages).
However the difference between genders determines the extent and duration, from my observation. Obviously more often older men date younger women than vice versa, it's a stereotype for a reason. I don't expect too many grown women to carry on with immature young men because the reality is most women look for stability and equality in a long term partner which is something young men notoriously don't have. Whereas with older men, they aren't looking at a young woman's ability to provide or be an equal for instance. They're looking at her for validation as arm candy and how well she can be controlled up until her expiration at 30 and then they replace her.

I know creepy women x younger men can happen (ie. Raven on /pt/), I just think it's more on a per case basis and not as common so as to sound alarms like old man x younger women.

No. 537523

>>537507
i dont defend that, i think it's personally weird but older women don't wield the same kind of power as older men, and society doesn't compound that power imbalance the way it does with older men and younger women. it's not comparable at all. older women don't have the same level of power at all, not even close. assuming anon isn't like, raven old, it's not as fucked up. it's still personally lame.

It's all about patterns. There is an ubiquitous, widespread pattern of older men preying on vulnerable younger women (or just going after them in general) and telling women their own age that they are worthless old hags. There is massive social pressure on women to date older men, because they too believe they will be worthless old hags if they don't find someone, anyone, in their 20s. There's basically an active movement to convince women they prefer old men with dadbods, and men have so much power that it works.

There is no such social pressure on men to date older women. When a younger guy dates an older woman, it's because he thinks she's hot and/or likes her. He hasn't been told by society that he's going to die alone if he doesn't. When an older woman dates a younger man, it's for the same reason, not because she's had constant positive reinforcement to do so and thinks it makes her an alpha tradchad.

No. 537561

>>537507
Because men and women are different. It definitely feels better to act like the dynamics are totally interchangeable for the sake of keeping things just and equal, but if we're brutally honest with ourselves, they really aren't.
In most cases, an 18 year old guy isn't really the same as an 18 year old girl. It's kind of been part of society to keep girls/women naive and "pure" to a certain extent, not let them get into too much shit, etc until they reach their 20s at least. Things are definitely changing, but parts of that concept still remain, except in dysfunctional homes.
If the late 20s anon had given actual creep vibes, like she was gushing over him being so much younger than her and "tiny", "naive" and "innocent" or whatever (like a scrote would), and/or she was his teacher (or in any other significant position of power over him in his life, instead of some random person he's casually dating in what's most likely a stream of other women), I'd have felt differently, but she didn't do any of those things. She didn't come off as someone targeting him for his age or looking for a power trip.
Even looking at rape/sexual assault/sexual harassment stats, women aren't nearly as predatory as men. When boys and men get preyed on, it's overwhelmingly done to them by other males, not women. There are definitely exceptions, but they're dwarfed in comparison.
For all these reasons, I can give that anon a certain benefit of the doubt I wouldn't lend a man in the same situation. I know it's not "equal", but honestly, it feels dumb trying to pretend the two sexes are totally the same in this regard when I can see in the back of my mind they're not.

Hey can someone please translate this to Spanish:

-Has a removable "filter" made from fabric interfacing
-Filter is optional but adds a layer of protection
-Completely washable- use hottest water possible, separate filter from mask
-DO NOT use fabric softener- use 1/2 cup distilled vinegar added to wash instead
-Store in clean plastic bag when not in use!
-Recommended to wash hands before putting on mask and before taking off
-Wear with pleats facing down. The opening for the filter is the bottom of the mask.

Men are pretty vocal about not liking negative profiles and I admit, I don't like men with profiles like that either. Even if it's totally fair not to want those traits, it's not a good look to assume the worst in people and attack them before the fact.

Maybe a profile like that would get you fewer matches but fewer duds too, which isn't bad. But if you're worried about coming off as rude you might be better off just being extra careful about filtering. Like going for guys who don't look older than their age, who specifically say they don't have kids, bringing it up early in conversation.

Perhaps shes b/p to cope with the stress of the situation. Maybe spending quality time and watching movies together, going on short walks can distract from that. Make sure she's hydrated enough so that her magnisum or potassium levels aren't too low. If she's okay with it ask her about what's specifically stressing her out. In extreme cases it can help to lock binge food away at night.

Thank you both, I appreciate the advice! We spend quality time often, especially now since our city has a stay at home order. It's been rough and I know her anxieties really rile her up now hell even I'm having a hard time. I smoke her out a lot because she says it helps I thought she was doing good and it caught me off guard last night. When I talked to a friend of mine he said it's just like an addiction, she's gonna have relapses and I have to realize that. The reason it makes me mad is because I worry about her health now & long term and I feel so helpless in the situation. She's my best friend and I have always prioritized having her back and helping her (& she's always had mine it's just she's the more sensitive one out of us two) so it bothers me so much to watch her hurt herself while idk what to do. I've thought about taking a shower after dinner so she can't use the bathroom & staying in the living room at night but I read that bulimia is a control thing and I don't want her to feel like I'm trying to control her actions.
We talked about it today & I apologized for how I came at her about it. Before this corona shit she had a therapist come to our house once a week but she hasn't come by since Feb, my sister decided to call her to set up phone or skype appointments so that makes me hopeful that she wants to do something about it.

I’ve never worked a job where I could work from home before, but is it inappropriate to ignore calls that I get that are work related outside of office hours? I work as a receptionist and we set up the front desk phone to redirect calls to me (caller ID also shows up as whatever I’ve named the work phone in my cell so I have no idea the number of the caller). Sometimes I get calls waaaay after what our office hours are and even if I’m awake, I wonder if I should pick them up. We do get a lot of spam calls, so usually if I don’t get a second call I know it’s spam… but I’ve had an instance of someone calling 5 times at like 1 in the morning when I happened to be awake and I knew it was probably an actual person on the other side but I ended up ignoring it…

Buncha dudes clearly disliked her before that. definitely reeked of "she's fat but confident, we don't like that, can't wait to be able to call her out on something" which is why if she's ever brought up on a male-dominated space, like credit, her past transgressions will be the excuse dudes use to wish her a terrible life, and to claim that female comedians aren't funny.

I've been called weird so many times just because I'm an introvert who listens more than speaks when I'm around people I don't know very well. I for sure has some S.A but I work in a field that requires extensive socializing and I'm one of the top rankers. I just have problems connecting with people on a personal level because my brain goes blank or I feel that no one gives a shit about what I have to say. It has ruined my self-image.

Things like trust, communication, common sense boundaries, etc. are all things that need to be maintained as time passes and the situation with your partner changes due to things like career shifts, living circumstances, and other desires. It takes work to communicate with and understand someone else every day and remembering how their circumstances, upbringing, and personality all play into why they do what they do right now and how they do it. It's a lot of cerebral effort on top of all the physical issues.

Does it appear outright bitter or passive-aggressive to delete someone off your friendslist on social media? The guy hasn't done anything outright wrong but we sort of dated and it didn't lead anywhere and I've been very heart-broken over it. We haven't spoken to eachother since last year, he's already been visibly moving on and although I'm trying to do the same and forget about him I'm having a hard time. I already blocked his number on the sly but I'm kinda worried about stirring something up or looking like I"m visibly petty when I've been trying to take the highroad.

Why do people get so mad at cheaters even if they don't know them personally?

I'v seen so much shit said about cheaters that can't really be said about thieves for example. Like saying "Castrate all cheaters" is socially acceptable but not "Cut off the hands of every shoplifter" etc.
I mean I just don't get it. At least thief steals something that has value to you while cheater only betrays your trust.

I get hating pedophiles and the ilk but cheating is just so immaterial that I the whole thing seems overblown. Just why? I see this shit all the time on lc

No. 538931

>>538929
Cheating destroys often years long relationships and families which means a lot more and has a lot more ‘value’ to most people than some inanimate object that can be stolen, and can have long term psychological implications for the person being cheated on. I don’t think anyone is genuinely calling for all cheaters to be castrated in the way that shoplifting has genuinely been punished with hands being cut off in other parts of the world, but if they were i’d agree with you it’s overblown, even though stealing is still a poor comparison

No. 538933

I agree with this. If you've been married for 10 years with 3 kids and a mortgage, it sucks if your partner cheats. You can't just exactly cut ties and move on.

Just be passionate and less business-driven even when your main goal is commissions. This is the grade A mistake I saw people on boards like /ic/ were making.

Retweet other people's art, like their posts and once you did that a few times, interact with them, get into conversations, joke around and so on. And regarding art, don't just draw characters on monotone backgrounds but also art of them interacting with situations or other characters, them having dialogues or even draw small comics. Basically, just be a fan and have fun.

Very normal to be jealous, and it's your husband's attitude that's problematic (though I guess you already know it's not the likelihood of his crush actually being his soulmate that's an issue). If he's convinced that that person is the one he should be with, what happens if they become available, what happens if they approach your husband? Hell, is he checking on her to see if she's available, will he make a move regardless of if she is at some point?

It's just pragmatic to ditch the male who you're fully committed to, but he says/thinks "this woman who is not you is the one I should be with".

Thing is even if he's loyal, you'll always know that he doesn't consider you the one. I guess the question is are you willing to settle for someone who you know is settling for you?

This thought came out of nowhere and is obviously not relevant ATM but do any other anons hate when parents allow their toddlers to frolic naked on the beach? I always feel uncomfortable because I keep thinking that a pedo might be lurking somewhere and those parents help create a great environment for sickos to creep on kids. Plus I hate it when I have to look away because some kids privates are at my eye level when I sit or lie down.
Feel free to let your kids run naked in private spaces, but please make them wear a costume at public beaches.

It's very political.
People who voted for brexit of course don't see themselves as European and are mostly Right wing leaning. They think Britain is still some kind of independent powerful country and that the close political relationship with the US proves this.
Most people who voted against Brexit take pride in being part of Europe, they want to have travel and good relationships with our neighboring counties. There's more of a mix of left wing and right wing in the anti-brexit section, though.
Also different countries in the uk vary on this stuff overall

idk anon, as much as men like to meme about women expecting them to be mind readers, men are way worse about it in my experience. Anon's husband could have meant that he felt like he and his ex were soulmates while he was dating her and no longer feels that way, and expects anon to just be on his wavelength and understand what he means without him having to explain (defense would be "of COURSE I don't think she's my soulmate anymore, why would I say something so hurtful on purpose?")

My glasses are slowly breaking apart (nosebridge piece broke off, I’m holding it together by gluing it back on with some e6000 but its broken back off like 2 more times) and I’m debating getting new ones once things settle down with the virus. I’m uninsured right now (working a temp job), but if I pay out of pocket and somehow land some health insurance that also covers vision, would I be able to go to the insurance company and say “hey, I paid xyz for my current new glasses, can I have that reimbursed/counted towards my deductible” or something like that?

You don’t really have to be ‘in’ the situation, it could just be things you see on the news maybe or hear about, when you see people who are in devastating or traumatic situations are you able to see it from their point of view and ‘feel’ the pain from their perspective and put yourself within their frame of reference as oppose to just logically knowing ‘this situation is sad’ and therefore acting accordingly

You don't need to "feel" their pain, you just need to understand their reasons for doing something. But even then, saying something "edgy" doesn't mean you don't have empathy because some people's (real) reasons can be quite infuriating.

Yeah I feel sad for them, it’s not like an extreme sadness where I am deeply affected by it but I can imagine and feel how it would have felt like for them and feel sad for them in the moment of that makes sense?

No. 539984

>>539977
ntayrt but that was just an example. think of something like, your best friend comes to you after a bad breakup.

sympathizing with her is more logical. you recognize the situation is sad and that your friend is sad. you tell her "i'm sorry, that really sucks."

empathy is emotional. you remember your last breakup, and understand how hurt, confused, angry, etc. she must be feeling. "i know how that feels. it really sucks, and i know it feels like you'll never get over him, but you will. i know from experience"

something like that?

it depends how much weed usually costs in your area. i think that's expensive.
think if you have a low tolerance and want to get stoned, that's about 10mg. i looked on the website and it says 90mg per bar. so, if you want to get high nine times for $4.65, go for it.
>>sry for autist explanation. hope its helpful.
>>also currently stoned

i personally am not a fan of edibles because they're more expensive and i have a high tolerance. so for me, who would need 40-50mg to get a good high, i don't think it's worth $19 for that one night.

i will say, the body high is really nice, so i do recommend you try it if you're not familiar with edibles.

No. 540656

Yes. Nobody really likes being in the city. The poor people make minimum and live in cramped apartments. The cheapest shitty bachelor's are well offer 1k,1 bedrooms 1.5k anything more is 2-4k a month and that's the crappy ones outside the downtown core. They live withmultiple people. Like you'll get a 1 bedroom with 2 people in the bedroom and 2 in the den. They're pretty miserable and work constantly and do drugs.

The rich people don't want to be their either. They're incredibly entitled and spend every moment getting out of the city to cottage and such. They don't like the riff raff on the streets, either.

The traffic is the worst in the world because every single surrounding town is full of commuters. With traffic, a half hour drive is s minimum hour and 30 minutes. People only work there because that's where all the money is in almost every industry.

There's a major disparity in income, a huge grid lock, horrid expensive transit and almost everyone is miserable commuting or living there. So they aren't very friendly or happy.
