Distractions. You need a lot of them. Good company. Good hobbies. Something.
It is never a great idea to let your mind wander off for too long, because it’ll go places you wouldn’t want it to and you’ll sometimes just be held down by it.
Hangers with those hooks on the sides that I guess are meant to slip the collar of the shirts into? They don’t really serve as a good use plus they seem to get tangled with other hangers at times and hang securely anyways. I’ve seen better hangers at work where there is a strip of some rubber compound on the top sides of each hanger, they hold things much better and I feel that’s the more better of the design for a hanger.
I would inform potential dates that there really isn’t going to be a family for them to meet and that I am probably the last representative of that family. If they ask me if they’re going to have a father-in-law or a mother-in-law, I would tell them it is probably in title only.
The goal is to spare your dates or would-be newlyweds from getting involved with what drama or dysfunctionality your family has gone through. You are doing your date a huge favor.
When phones got developed so much, you can virtually do half of the things on them as you would a laptop.
It sounded like you didn’t see what the point things were when they arrived around your time. But I can tell you, the passing 90s and 2000s just straight shot technology faster than we can comprehend.
I see you’ve asked this very thing and it didn’t go over well for you in the other instance.
America is not entirely immune from the problems you’ve seen in Europe. Different continents, different sets of problems. America’s problem is how it takes any and every chance it has had, to be a more prosperious country and pisses it away by allowing very few rich people and corporations take it entirely over.
And it is at the expense of the populace. What’s there to be grateful for when YOUR country is the one offering free healthcare, when America has pressurized it’s people in a ‘pay or die’ situation?
Yes, 3+4 remakes. I’m for it. It has to be.
Coffee/Monster Java. I really feel like I can’t function without either. I can go without Monster Java for a few days, but the coffee is something I can’t go without in it’s absence.
Porn. While this has been gradually getting better with not stockpiling tons and tons of images and not stroking off as much. I do spend quite some time looking at porn and falling into old habits from time to time.
Food Portion Control. I have poor portion control, I really do. I’ve long stopped going to chinese buffets which is a great step in progress. But I’ve substituted it with going to BK time to time and grabbing things that are just as bad if eaten in a day’s worth.
This isn’t Reddit. Karma points would matter if it was reddit because they stupidly make it where the less points you got, the harder it’ll be to post anywhere. That isn’t a thing on the fediverse, you can have -1000 and still post.
It’s just a stupid internet toy.
When you eat something so perfectly good.
I am still using a computer case that was from my ex-roommate 4 1/2 years ago. I bought his old system when he was upgrading and while I had long gutted and got rid of the old parts to make way for newer ones a year after having moved out from him. I’m still using the case.
For me in a way, yes. When I used to read books on a regular basis, I found it more easier to digest if I had nobody or nothing around to make noise. I can deal with small noises like random cracks or a pop here and there. Long as it wasn’t amplified or anything. When I listen to things such as music or take in sound in general, my mind goes everywhere and it can’t focus on the pages of a book.
I always hated it when people try talking to me when louder noise is present and expect me to hear them perfectly. My mind is not focusing on your words, it’s focusing on that obnoxious noise that’s disrupting things.
But according to some of the mods here in the fediverse, you’re AdVoCaTiNg violence as if there is somehow a magical whimsical answer there to solve all of the world’s problems. /s
I am still waiting by the way, for anyone to tell me what is there left to really do to try and tell the most powerful classes in society, to convince them to stop their bullshit. So far, I’ve heard none.
Because there’s really nothing worth investing in, with people who just scream at eachother all day. The only social media platform that is probably worth acquiring in their eyes is Facebook because Facebook actually has more going for them and has acquired other companies too. Twitter was just…Twitter.
You start grasping for the past again. You may have at one point when you were younger, have gotten tired of people telling stories of their past and how things were in the day. But before you know it, you will do it too. A lot of people already are doing it and they’re in stages of their lives that the older people once were who also did it.
You feel like the world becomes greyer and greyer when you read the news about some celebrity that played a role you remembered them in be it a show or movie that passed away. This also applies to knowing about the individuals through the cracks that don’t get as much coverage, like pioneers that helped make things you take for granted, knowing of people that took part of something that made you realize that they were what made something work and not who you thought did.
You get increasingly annoyed at just noise. Dogs barking. Children loudly playing. Babies crying. People shouting. People clumsily doing things that make something break or whatever. You yearn for periods of silence.
You could become isolated by choice, like caught in a web of indecision as to what hobby you want to enjoy. You’re getting older, not younger, so you feel like you have to try to enjoy what you can before you really can’t anymore.
And above all else, you grow more and more distant from the connections you once called your best. There will be a point in your life much later on, where you will be in a nursing home or whatever and you may not have a way to stay in touch with your friends. All of you are on a course of this same life and the sad part is all of you are also racing to your ends.
He’ll probably find it then be surprised that he’s prosecuted for it. Play stupid games…
I was a simple kid back then. I remember having seen 3D renders of south park characters back in the 90s. Marvin the Martian fansites. The #Trivia room in TalkCity.
MAGA and ‘Justification’ don’t belong in the same sentence. Do they feel they need a justification for…ANYthing? No, they don’t. It’s all about ripping and tearing the fabrics of democracy for sheer self-entitlement and personal gain at the expense of everyone else they don’t like because the Orange Fuhrer duped all of them into believing that’ll he will lower egg prices and bring the country back to being ‘great’ again.
If one wants to be forgotten, just go to a remote location that they’re sure nobody will be around. Preferably somewhere uninhabitable.
Because, someone will eventually bother you, someday one day. They will get overly concerned and if they can’t do anything as to what they think will save you, they’re going to notify someone else. Worst case, you’ll be thought of as a criminal. Police and authority do not really register how someone wants to be forgotten. They’re always going to draw their own assumptions and conclusions, just complicating and frustrating the matter that you simply want to be forgotten.
This is something you have to plan carefully because we’re just not in that kind of world where you’re simply left alone.
Do not entertain an argument of any kind. We’re no longer in a realm where people can be reasoned or rationalized. People mostly just want you to be wrong and will break you down in trying to make you feel wrong. Block the moment someone starts swinging back at you.
If you see someone out in the open giving someone else a hard time, you can bet that they’ll do it to you so block them also.
Never go too open with someone beyond your comfort level. People online can be notorious for abusing sensitive information for ammo, personal gain or to do with as they see fit.
Even if you’re right, why the fuck add in unnecessary features to a simple word program?
