How pedantic of you. ;)
Waiting so long to cut off a toxic parent. Not spending more time with a good parent. Not going to therapy sooner.
Aw, thanks.
It's not about loving myself. I think I'm pretty decent. It's just luck of the draw that everyone around me has their head up their ass. I rationally know I should be loved. I emotionally feel the lack and don't understand it.
No idea. I posted like I usually do
Coffee. My dad was in the navy in the 70s and you could tell by the tar he drank. Never got into it. Early 20s I got hired as a delivery boy for a coffee shop. A perk was that it came with free coffee drinks. Turns out I didn't hate coffee, I hated the swill my father brewed. Good coffee was quite good.
Vtubers. I get the cute anime girl thing and I like fan art of them as I do other anime. But the models move wayyyyyy to exaggerated. It hits uncanny valley for me.
Also I don't get the parasocial relationship of chatting in a huge room of other followers. The chat is scrolling by at a hundred miles an hour and you're competing with everyone else for their attention.
Don't ruin a hobby with money. You will lose all enjoyment of it. Something changes when you get paid for it.
I literally cannot think about it. We are tiny boats on the sea of aristocratic whims. I just wanna make sure my kids are fed and try to teach them to be good people. If I start to think about the greater picture, I spiral into very dark places. I constantly remind myself to focus on what I can control.
Havent felt proud to be an American in a long while. I'm proud of loving thy neighbor as myself, not lining the pockets of billionaires. I hate that I'm powerless to do much. Representative democracy? My ass. No one represents me. They're all aristocrats. "it's one banana, Michael. What could it cost, $10?"
I'm not bitter about it at all. /s
For some, sure. For others, like me, that is exactly why I like certain things.
