Reminds me of this video, the the impotence of proofreading

Oh nice. I missed out on the wiiu entirely, so I wasn’t aware it was as capable as it is!

Original Wii is a very capable CFW/piracy device as well.

I feel like when you’re talking corporations, hanlons razor needs to be reversed. Never attribute to stupidity what could be adequately explained by malice. We’ll call it Nolnahs razor.

There’s no ethical consumption under capitalism. And yet, we’re still forced into capitalism, with little choice but to participate or starve. You can object to a system and say that it’s unethical, but also necessarily play into that system.

We all gotta eat. Long as there’s our current form of capitalism, we all gotta pay rent (or mortgage). Until those needs relax, we’re essentially saying “pick between your needs and being a good person.” One of our strongest drives is to survive, and so if the only way for some to survive is off the backs of others, it’s the inevitable outcome.

Of course we should all be striving to change this. Effective change comes from slow, repeated effort though, not just fruitlessly chasing an ethical job. If you just stay where you are, then that’s fine. Do what you can from within, safely. We all do that, and we’ll slowly steer this ship.

You’re going to have a vocal minority that hates you regardless of anything you do, and they will find whatever insecurities you have and dig at them, because they know it hurts.

I see a ton of people here, giving you advice and support. It’s so easy to forget about all of those positive voices when the few hurtful voices are so loud and so very painful. Try not to focus on those, and focus on the more numerous voices cheering for you.

I don’t have any advice for your looks. I’m a cis gendered straight guy with about as opposite of hair and build as you as can be hahah. I think listening to some of the other great advice here about focusing on one thing at a time, small changes, etc will go a long way. Once you build a few things you feel good about, your confidence will grow and that will carry you beyond what any advice will.

Good luck, my friend.

See that’s the weird part. They stay on my face. I’ve always been a restless sleeper, and I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I learned to keep them on when asleep.

I’ve been making an active effort to not do so the last… Couple of years I guess. It’s a bit more comfortable when I remove them, but I’d say maybe half the time I still just forgot to take them off.

I don’t know, I have since I was a kid. My eyes are REALLY BAD so I think I just hated waking up blind and disoriented, so I just learned to sleep in them.

I’ve had the exact opposite experience. Last time trying glasses at a local place, they hurt my eyes and couldn’t figure out how to adjust them properly. Every pair I’ve purchased on Zenni has lasted multiple years of me sleeping in them or doing contact sports in them. I still have multiple pairs kicking around my house or car as spares.

You’re blind to the progress you’ve made, because it’s slow, and because you’ve convinced yourself it isn’t there. Keep going, every day there’s going to be reason to struggle. Your brain’s going to be an asshole, but you’re still going, still struggling, still progressing. Eventually, you’ll be able to quiet the shittier internal voices, and start talking to yourself like you deserve to. Love yourself, you’re going through the shit right now, but you’re ~still going~

Happy to see you post again, even if it’s not under the best circumstances. You got this, bud.

You honestly sound very depressed and like you really don’t know what you ARE. Try things, open mindedly, and you may find that some of these things are you, or can be fun regardless. Stop getting in your own way.

Sounds like you finally have a chance to be the adult in a room. Could be a fun, new experience for you!

They’re more seen at older businesses that have been there forever. Newer ones get newer signs, with more flashy displays.

Here in Portugal, most display useful info like date, time, outside temperature (with varying degrees of accuracy),

We have ones like this in the states too. My favorite near me is at a church. It cycles between temp and date, but the display has too few characters, so instead of just being two screens, date then temp, it’s 3 - day and month, a second screen that just says “/24” and then the temp.

Comfy bed.

I recently got into armored combat so, knights. If we’re gonna kill each other, let’s at least be civilized!

Bread and circuses. They’re already giving us scraps.

Reminds me of Jung’s theory around The Gaze, and how by ourselves we are our own subjects, capable of authoring our own paths, but as soon as another being is introduced and we’re subject to their gaze, their own aspect of being a subject necessarily forces some objectification upon us (and us on them). It’s interesting theory, and a good examination of why some people feel so incredibly uncomfortable with others around.

Dude this bugs me so much. More so when it’s in a personal conversation, and the person says idk Google it. Particularly if it’s something they’re clearly interested in. I’m not looking for the information as much as I am the dialogue.

Man, nut milks (hah) and oat milk are fantastic. I’m not vegan, but I absolutely support reducing the animal products you consume. Milk is a big deal for me, and while they don’t always quite satisfy in the same way, animal milk alternatives are pretty awesome.
