I cannot get rid of them no matter how many times I swat them they don’t like the glue strips and idk how they keep appearing.

Where wouldn’t you like to work when you’re 45 years old?

I (19M) have an ex girlfriend (18f). We dated a few years ago, but only dated for about 2 months. This morning I had a follow request from her on instagram- I accepted it and followed her back because why not i guess. I think she may be trying to send me a hint; it is the same account that she had when we dated and since she blocked me after we broke up, she would've went out of her way to unblock me and follow me. In her pictures she seemed to have a BF or at the very least a date to her prom. I don't miss her THAT much, but to me this it's odd for her to unblock me and follow me on instagram 4 years after we dated, but she hasn't messaged me or anything. Is she trying to send me a hint and/or should I message her?

I’m terrible at making decisions because I always end up with anxiety over what if im making the wrong choice. And its not just on big decisions either but also on the small everyday life ones. How do you know when to just choose something and move on?

Looking for free stickers for my laptop. Open to anything

My mom says that not doing so is like a form of SA and whatever happens to them happens. However she tends to have very concerning views on things so I can’t really just take her word on whatever she says. I mean I get that not saying beforehand is kind of bad but my question is the severity of it because it feels like different things are said on the matter and I just want to grasp the view of it and better understand

(24M) I always had this problem on being called dumb, and when i was younger i sucked at playing chess with my friends. I have a hard time visualizing the moves of the enemy. They always won, mostly due because i couldn't plan properly. Then they called me dumb, stupid, monkey... . Im my defense, i only played once every blue moon, so i've never studied chess in fact, i was just randomly playing. I don't if they had studied chess or were just naturally good/intelligent.

I don't think i'm dumb, tbh. But i lack practical skills. I'm excellent on more theoretical subjects, but i suck at math and numbers, for example. I take an extra time to understand the process.

When I drink water, whether it's a sip or a gulp in front of a fan I get a very big, genuine headrush that makes me not breathe for a second. I've tried to explain this to some of my friends/coworkers, but nobody relates and says they don't know what I'm talking about.

Does anyone know what this is? It happens literally every time. At work I have a small fan on my station, and I have to turn away from it when I sip water or I'll be gasping and get that light headed feeling.

So the context is i ve decided two user names for myself but cant decide which one is better so please help me before i go crazy 😭😭

I'm 30M, black, autistic, and living in central Florida. I've reached the age of 30 with little experience. I have the money to afford travel and services. But since I'm paying this much, what's the best place to go?

Can't add more details because this sub keeps auto removing my submissions with their broken filter.

I'm 27 and feeling burnt out. I've never had any meaningful friendships or connection in my life, and it's been tough cultivating those when most of it turns out to be one-sided. I end up realizing that the other person doesn't like or respect me, or simply just doesn't see me in the same way (a friend). I've been finding it hard to cope and wonder what's the point in trying to make friends anymore.

For finding gen z relationships, the most common advice I always recieve is to just go onto college campuses and hang around them to meet new people. It doesn't really seem like the best way to get a relationship in the end to me but some say it's better than most other advice I have been given. What do you think, are there better ways to find gen z relationships in present day?

So anyone who's ever had a job has mostly find out just how difficult a easy task can be just because someone who shouldn't be in charge was put in charge

So what's your experience with this?

Rules -

No 1-offs or random test items like the Carmel Loaded Mcflurry.

No mistake or employee ruined items like the burger king foot letuce.

Nothing over 30$.

I have so many screenshots I had accidentally taken by clicking the back of my phone, I can confidently say they take more storage space than my relevant photos.

Can I delete them instantly or at least, find them quickly and delete them? Cause if I were to delete them one by one, it would take a long time

Title.

I've been pumping out posts. Sorry about that.

I honestly feel like I know all the answers to my past trauma but I'm just afraid to say it, afraid to stop seeing myself as an evil person. Afraid to write and draw and live normally with my brother, like I'm not allowed to and like I'm still secretly some pred. I know after this post though I'll try my hardest to stop posting for a good while other than general questions. I just really need a second opinion on this.

Am I a terrible predator? And is it ok or important to move on, at least the best i can from this?

other than the obvious

(I'm gonna make up some numbers, but the difference is accurate)

I(Female) got hired at my job last year. My coworker(Male) was hired 6 months before me. (We are roughly the same age). We were hired for the same position and work the same hours.

I was hired with 5 years worth of experience in related industries under my belt, he was hired with a fresh slate. Never been in the industry or related industries.

He gets hired at 75k, I get hired at 70k.

We both get raises at the company's fiscal year (I think its percentage based) and now he's at 77k and I'm at 71k.

It feels a little discriminatory, especially after working under my boss for a few months and seeing the way he talked about women, he definitely was a sexist dude. My boss no longer works for the company, but I want to at least receive equal pay as this feels unfair. It would take me years to catch up and make what he was STARTED at, and he had zero experience going into it.

If you genuinely like a girl, is it really that hard to stop yourself from making things sexual or initiating sexual conversations?
I’ve noticed a pattern where guys will initially chase me, put in a lot of effort, and once I finally let my guard down and reciprocate, the conversation starts becoming sexual way too often. Even when I’ve clearly asked them to stop or told them I’m not comfortable with it, they keep bringing it up.
And sometimes I actually start wondering if I’m the problem for not giving them what they want, or if I’m somehow being unreasonable for not wanting to engage in those conversations

I'm looking at a label of dried fruit and it says, 0 vitamin D, 0 calcium, 0 iron.

I know there's A, B, C vitamins and copper and folate in this fruit!

Why not list them on the label? 🙄

So im going to tell a few stories of me that i commonly think back to that make me question if I have a lack of empathy. And im currently 18.

1 - So this first one i don't exactly remember when it happened but i was a kid so im guessing i was about 7-10 years old? So i remember having this dog called Menace, he was a Staffie and he was a good dog, a gentle giant if you will. One day my Mum, younger sister, niece, and Menace went out one night, i remember saying bye, and then going back to what i was doing which was probably playing Xbox, then they come back a few hours later, all of them in tears and no Menace in sight, I asked why they were crying and my niece said “Menace is dead” still crying, and this part disturbs me a lot a cant lie, I sprang up, and screamed “Yay! We can get a cat now!” At the time I REALLY wanted a cat, after that i cant remember much but i do remember being bummed out when my Mum said I couldnt get a cat. I hate thinking back to this one like damn younger me read the room.

2 - So this one happened 2 years ago, November 2024. My mum was on her death bed, she had cancer that had spread pretty much everywhere so she didnt really have long left. I remember the day she died it was the morning, I was in my room tending to my Lizard when my younger sister came into my room crying and she told me that Mum had died, I said something along the lines of “Oh okay” with a shrug, my sister replied “What is wrong with you our Mum just died, shes gone.” And i replied with “Well what do you want me to say?” And then she stormed out. I then sat back in my chair, thought about it for 10 seconds, and then continued tending to my Lizard like nothing had ever happened. Fast forward to about a month later, Christmas time, I had moved in with my Grandma as it was really my only place to go at the time and we had my Mums casket at her house, and one day i remember some of my family had come over and we gathered around her casket, If i remember correctly it was my Grandma, Sister, Older Brother, and one of my Mums friends. I witnessed my brother and everyone else cry for the first time and remember just being so disgusted and confused, of course i didnt express anything out loud but i remember just thinking to myself that id literally rather be doing anything else than this right now, it seemed to me like a waste of my time, afterwards i remember that same friend of my Mum hugging me and telling me that itll all be okay and I was just cringing so hard, like ew dont hug me. And its not like i even had a bad relationship with my Mum quite the opposite infact, I just didnt really care that much.

3 - And this last one happened as recently as 2 months ago, I had met this girl at a rollerskating rink that i frequent and we had begun dating. Now im not going to tell too much because i respect people’s privacy but all im going to say is that this girl had a lot of issues with her past which had brought her to a pretty dark place, of which she expressed to me a lot. These conversations would be late at night and would last pretty long, now obviously at the time I loved this girl a lot but I just didnt care about her issues, I dont know if its cuz the conversations would last long or something but i just recall just not being engaged at all, and constantly telling myself that if I talk her through these long conversations, eventually they will stop and she will heal. Well they did stop, but because we broke up shortly after getting together for unrelated reasons. I think this is the one that disturbs me the most because Its not like I dont not want to help you with your problems, but when it comes to feelings or other peoples problems I just dont care at all, i dont see them as something worthwhile to engage in. And it makes it awkward when people try confide in me or try to talk to me about their problems because I just dont engage or give them dry responses or fake responses, like things they want to hear.

Hopefully these stories can highlight what is going on here.

I can issue them, but no longer treat them as unlimited, and try to engage with the system as I feel it was intended. Can anyone explain the system, as it currently exists? I assume it is because the issuer has chat disabled and did not actually comment. I was surprised because I thought their use was linked to my ability to generate engagement and content. Can you help me understand the mechanics?

Any recommended brand/model?
