A paid plan on a chat application? Needs a catchy hook... Matrix Nitro, perhaps?

I wonder if there's a market here. I feel like a company that cleans up AI bullshit would make bank lol

I was like you once. Had to move back in with my parents, couldn't find a job for months on end. Floating through life without a fire in me felt like shit. Your problems aren't trivial. Things will get better. Forgive the platitude, but despite what you believe right now, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I had/have a terrible anxiety disorder (still working on it to some degree, but I'm able to control it now) that was eating my life and my happiness away. What helped me tremendously was looking inward and asking why I feel these things without indulging any thoughts that came up. Objectively analyzing each thought and feeling without judgement. Each new revelation was followed by "well, why is that true?" Your emotions aren't there for no reason, they're indicators of your internal state like warning lights. Asking why they're going off will lead you to the answers you want.

From there, I accepted that my parents were straight up emotionally neglectful/abusive. I won't delve into it for brevity, but I encourage you to objectively analyze your relationship with your parents. When I did that, I realized they were the source of my insecurities. Their constant criticism disguised as "jokes" and boundary breaking spawned that horrible anxiety disorder. Maybe your parents have done something similar?

Read The Body Keeps the Score. It echoes pretty much everything I've said here. The best part? It's empirically validated, no woo-woo bullshit.

I hope this helped even a tiny bit.

I actually just had this problem a couple weeks back. I was using revanced spotify but I had to keep re-patching it because it kept breaking. Eventually, I became so frustrated I said fuck spotify and found ViTune which is a fork of ViMusic (which is now defunct).

It workes exactly how I would want a music app to work. No accounts, no algorithms, just search for the song you want. You might get a playback error if you're using a VPN, but that's literally the only complaint I have about it.

it's just hard for some people to appreciate the good things in life. that's valid considering the state of the world right now, but we still need to celebrate victories where they appear. overt pessimism does no good for anyone

right on. this tweet is like saying "there's not a single country in africa that starts with the letter K." there obviously is, but it's targeting people who are knowledgable enough to know the answer but not intelligent enough to understand the point of the tweet.

Second season of The Last of Us. Never played the second game so I went in blind after really liking the first season. The writing and dialogue were godawful and I just could not give less of a shit about the direction it was headed. I get that the show is more about interpersonal relations in the face of extreme hardship than killing zombies and cool action scenes, but the second season was just so slow in advancing the plot that it left me completely disengaged.

in other words, a hammer "got absolutely wrecked" by a handsaw in a board-halving competition

so true. any real journalist would've scrutinized this study, but now all journalists need for an article is a 9 year old tweet from a guy with 4 followers

as a fellow artist, fuck those guys. they don't deserve to see your posts, so write "go fuck yourself" in a few more words and block em. they don't give your art any consideration, so why should you give them any consideration back? if they can't take a break from having their heads up their asses to view your receipts, then maybe they don't deserve to view your posts in the first place.

please keep posting. i've been more liberal about my use of the block button recently and it's been a real liberating experience.

it's not a point of US defaultism, it's that nobody in our respective social circles can give a shit about wrestling lol

"way to be yourself" is a great backhanded compliment haha
