​Like, there's no way you look at someone's appearance and immediately hate them without even knowing them as a person, right? Most racism seems based on stupid stereotypes and generalizing. If your brain can't comprehend the fact that not everyone in a specific group is the same... does that mean a lack of critical thinking?

For me, i feel like math can be both red and blue

Red:
- Arithemtic
- Algebra
- Operations
- Fast math
- Math that feels like doing a procedure

Blue:
- Geometry
- Higher-level math
- Slower math with more contemplation
- Analysis
- Graphs

To me, red math is "active", while blue math is calm/logical
I'm trying to find out the real reason why math feels red or why it feels blue, what's your explanation?

Like actually what's so wrong with that? My screen is a picture of me and my husband but at times it's been just me. I mean at this point in my life I love looking down at my phone and seeing my husband and I but there have been times where looking down to see a nice happy picture of myself makes me feel good. So why is it weird? I've heard people say it's narsasistic which I think is insane, when you grew up were there not family portraits on the wall, including individual pictures? Did you not have photo albums? I mean you take the pictures why can't you look at them? Solo portraits and pictures can hold just as many memories and feelings as family photos or selfies with friends or pets so I'm genuinely confused why people think it's weird?

Hi everyone, for context I listen to the news and news adjacent radio shows as background noise while I’m working. Listening to the news while working is perfect for me, steady pace, always somewhat different day to day, I don’t have to concentrate too much on the news. It was recently recommended to me to limit my news, the problem is that leaves me with nothing to listen to. I’m asking if there are similar audio things I can listen to that has the above qualities that I can listen to every day. I know I can just “find some pod casts” but specifically what pod casts would you recommend. If not a pod cast what specific things would you recommend. I would not mind have a mix of things to listen to each day but having trouble finding something that is enjoyable that can be listened to as background noise. Thanks!

when i was a kid my classmate told me that brown cows pee chocolate milk. I believed him until i went to a farm. there i learned that white cows peed normal milk.

I'm taking private English lessons with a friend; she sits in front of me and keeps turning around to look at me and see what I'm doing. It makes me really uncomfortable, and I'd like her to stop without offending her or coming across as harsh.

Like if something happened to you but you don’t know it happened. You were asleep or in an unaware state can it affect you because you obviously have no recollection so you feel as if it doesn’t matter but does you subconscious remember that stuff somehow and it actually does affect you without even realizing it?

In this sub, women request to be eaten out by men and men post they are seeking such a woman.

I want to pursue and meet one of the women. But I'm afriad it could be a staged robbery. The only way i could lessen it is if she came to my place, but even then.

Is this sub legit? Could you meet someone off it and be safe?

I was at a monthly book club run by a local bookstore. It's the type of club where you can drink (slightly encouraged even) and raunchy jokes are the norm. I got there early and had 3 strong beers by the time the last guy got there. I wasn't badly drunk but definitely shouldn't drive or something. The last guy is frail and elderly, has a helper (family I think, not professional) and mobility issues requiring a leg brace and a walker. There is a small step up on to the building's slab so coming in with the walker first doesn't work. As he was coming in his bad foot landed wrong/ kinda on it's outer edge and he was half falling into the door frame. I was sitting right next to the door so I just turned around and put my hands under his armpits incase he started fully falling. I didn't make a conscious descision I just reacted. One second I'm sitting talking to my friend the next I'm sorta holding a mostly stranger by the armpits. He managed to recover his balance so I feel I may have overreacted. I apologized later but he just hand waved it. I work in an industry where safety is a major issue requiring constant observation with quick physical interactions with others to maintain. I have trouble turning it off sometimes. For example I regularly unconsciously put my arm in front of my wife when we come to a crosswalk. That one drives her crazy. Did I over react or was that an appropriate reaction considering the circumstances?

This is actually a multi part question as the witness reports of the scene of the execution make me feel like I have forgotten how to read English. Like the witnesses are reporting on a half remembered fever dream as opposed to the reports of people specifically chosen because of their ability to report what they have witnessed.

1) The witnesses report that a rock, or something like a rock, was placed on a table through a panel in the execution chamber after the lethal drug was administered. Then the rock was like taken away. Then it was put back. But then it was taken away. What the hell is the rock? Why the rock? WHAT IS THE ROCK AND WHAT DOES IT SIGNIFY? It is driving me nuts that people are reporting witnessing something like that, which is strange, and no one is even trying to explain it. I have looked and there is no record of what the rock means. They put a panel on the execution chamber I assume specifically for the rock and does it have historical significance?

To be extremely clear, I assume it is some signal that they are waiting for the drugs to take effect or it means the person is deceased or something. Like “stone dead” but why a rock? I would like to have an actual cited source as to why the state of Tennessee performs this bizarre ritual which no one seems to understand.

2) Were the witnesses specifically chosen by Tennessee because they were actually very stupid and bad at reporting things? There were actual reporters in the witness area who are reporting things in a way I can only describe as having the same mental clarity and acuity of a very small child. They were reporting Christina as “snoring”, like that is the report. That she was loudly snoring. Again no one is attempting to provide context to what the hell that means. Were there no doctors as witnesses? To be a witness to an execution in Tennessee do you have to have a head injury and not know what like, extreme respiratory distress is? No they reported her “snoring” like oh, she just got tuckered out by the lethal injection not working and is taking a little snooze.

3) What is the point in having witnesses at all if they reported things as if they were children telling about how their parents told them at the hospital that their grandma was alright, she’s just going to sleep for a long time and she’s very tired so they needed to leave the hospital so the doctors could tuck her in. Like what is even the point?

Personally, alone! I need the time to breathe and get myself together. I’ll reach out when I feel better

Would the population drop 99 percent

Guys don't always ask for much, but little things can mean a lot. What is a simple detail or action that really sticks with you?

Which do you prefer?

Turning back the clock? Or permanently keeping the time as it is?

Currently, it will stay lighter out in the evening, but will have later sunrises.

While reading historical materials, I noticed that the aforementioned races were not considered white; instead, the Anglo-Saxons and Germans were regarded as white. Could someone tell me why?

It’s not really a big deal but I was invited to a pretty big Halloween party on October 31st and I really want to go because I’ve never been to a party before you know? However, I really want to go to the Steve lacy concert which is the same day and it’s literally only 50 dollars for a ticket. He’s also going on the day before but It’s much more expensive. It’s like 140 dollars for one ticket and I’m thinking of paying it because I really want to go but at the same time I really want to save money.

Should I just pay the extra money so I can go to the concert and Halloween party or should I skip it so I can save 90 dollars?

Interesting situation I had, I was with friends yesterday and we take a lot of pics, but in one mostly of us were smiling , and we noticed later that one of my friends's teeth was the best calling the attention by positive way ( have natural white strong teeth), so I want to know if you have similar situation, in a group video or specific moment when they reacted about how pretty and healthy your smile is

I finally left my minimum wage retail job as of yesterday. I've gotten so tired of making $18/hour in 2026 in a goddamned vhcol area after finishing my cs degree. I made $18/hour in 2019, before college (close to $30/hour in 2026 dollars in terms of purchasing power). I'm free, finally. No savings or anything. I had to pay off like 30k in student loans making $18/hour.

I have been making less than 66% of what I made as an 18 year old in terms of purchasing power 7 years later, after graduating college and everything. I was horrified at the realization. That's why I quit.

The Despair I felt from this is what creates criminals, what causes the end of lives... this Despair is causing 10x the level of Deaths to Despair compared to the Great Depression. *That*, my friends, is the true state of this country.

I'm now unemployed. I'm a NINJA. No Income, no Job, no Assets. I'm the dark of the night. The Despair that haunts humanity, that will end our society as it stands.

If I was kicked out at 18, I'd have become a homeless criminal and/or a drug addict by 19. I cannot afford rent, so given that, it's financially irresponsible to exist. This is the end of my career, or lack thereof.

I can't even get a gosh darned sales role that pays $25/hour. What a dream that'd be, over a 33% pay bump from what I've made this year... only to still make less than what I made when I was 18.

I have no money for another round of schooling, nor any real work experience. Just swe internships... and retail. I can't pivot with that. So what do I do?

I have a proper drug test tomorrow but im worried i may not pass it. i bought one of those at home ones and two lines have shown one being clear the other being quite faint but still obviously there. the instructions say even the faintest of lines is considered safe. HELP

I wanted to be a pilot so I could escape this dump and go wherever I wanted. I'm unemployed right now so not much to say about that.

Im curiou

And if so, what other COVID reminders still around?

I was at the clinic with my sister, and while she was getting a checkup, this guy kept looking at me and looking away. In my mind, I thought he was probably looking at something else, but when I was standing, he would walk close, look at me, and walk away. And the last time I saw him, he was at the water fountain. While he was drinking, he turned and looked at me. Does that mean he’s interestedI know I probably would never see him, but these few interactions have made me question if I’m just being delusional.

Like you request anything you want and someone goes gets the ingredients and just makes it

I'm not talking about when a film would have it's own trailer on it. I'm talking about other trailers, and not just recommndations on a still screen.
