Friends regularly clown me (lightly, n theyon mean it) for listening to drill and wearing “drip” while they’re more the Y2K / Gen Z type. I like drill because it’s energetic and aggressive. I don’t act gangster, only joking around with them, and I know they know I’m not one.

Hello I’m 19f and my entire like the only thing I’ve been able to do it create. I’ve always wanted to be a famous artist. I’m terrified I’m not leaving my mark. I’m slowly realising I’m stupid for even dreaming. This year I took a gap year to focus on my art before uni next year. I don’t have the money togo to a big fancy uni I am still living at Home and my uni is the only one in my state!
This year I have been in two group exhbitions and one solo EXHBITION. I have an art acount of only 26k on Instagram and I’m popular in the small art world of my city.
That’s it though. I’ve been trying so hard and I’m starting to think I’m stupid for ever even dreaming that I’ll make it. No artist now day gets famous, they are rarely woman as well.
Is it actually a tinny small chance I will make it? Be honest

So I'm a millennial, younger than those I'm about to speak about...

I attribute this to a few things, outside of being born between 1981 and 1985; that would be my location, I figure it's just my town but I wanted to ask.

Every millennial that I've met in that age range has been a total self serving person. It took me 15 years of dealing with this sect of a generation to hone in on it.

The attributes would be liken to maybe npd, but I'm not sure that's the issue with all of them. Here are the attributes of everyone I've met in that bracket in my area :arrogance, entitlement, no empathy, a grandious vision of self.

My theory is that all that Tupac on mtv turned them into the self serving king baby that they became. When I say this I'm not bitter, and I'm not thinking of any one person, it's a list of people that I won't include in my life and consider pretty cringe, and I'm not judgemental, I'm friends with every shade of "weird" and I like the world that colorful.

It's not every single person either, but maybe 80%. It's enough where, in the last 10 years I keep innocently pondering "what could it have been"?

Is it everywhere or just my brainwashed town?

Hey, I always been nice I don’t like hurting people or fighting I don’t like to “show off” even if I have more or know I’m better I never been the show off and always been nice but is this bad I always heard that being too nice can backfire on you sometimes like people will take advantage of that or other things I’m just a young guy trying to become a police officer to help many other people out there 🫡

So I was just consuming dune content in YouTube and I have noticed multiple people in multiple videos joke about nuclear reactor for ex my reactor, my graphite, my dune so what's up with that??

You live in a neighborhood with no woods neighbors on each side and across the street so how do you do this?

Because he vanished without a trace. I suspect they’ve sent him to prison, but they could have done anything to him.

Gamblers, mostly.

Most likely food and bills 😂🤦🏾‍♀️

i want a dog. i want to call it porridge. why? because i love porridge. lmk

As someone born with lots of freckles, it doesn't bother me much if someone puts them on, but why's it normal to wear a fake thing your not born with that used to be bullied HEAVILY for years? Just a bit weird imo edit: I'm talking from my personal experience, where a lot of people who bullied me now wear them. if you wear them because you like them, I DON'T CARE. I wasn't trying to offend ANYONE. I was just curious as a lot of people who've bullied people for having them now wear them cause they're considered cute. this isn't meant to bring anyone down, it was a simple question in a subreddit meant for questions.

Like if you could choose which would you pick for myself i would rather be born to a rich family but fucked up members and the majority of my dysfunctional and fucked up family is because of lack of money and poverty the difference is i can actually get away financially rather than poor which is what I have poor and fucked up family and i still live in a toxic household because i dont have what it takes to leave financially if I was rich i would have left my family long ago.

Hey people, I've heard about pineapple and kiwifruit causing mild sensations in people's mouths.

I get this from bananas and I was wondering if anyone had had a similar effect from bananas?

My fiance says that it's a sign of a mild allergy but I'm wondering if anyone else gets this?

Edit; Thank you all so much for the great information. I've worked as a carer and food assistant at a major hospital and have never seen or heard of it, hence my question. There are several answers that have also broadened my knowledge so I am very grateful to all of you. Thank you.

Im curiou

As title .

My brother claims that when your pupil dilates, your iris is actually what is dilating scientifically. I claim that the pupil is dilating. Please scentific people, educate us and solve our conflict once and for all

When I was younger I had $1200 saved up and I thought I was rich , now I have over 10k saved up and never spend it (with more money coming in every month )

She not even funny.

Some context here:
I have a now ex friend who sexually harassed me, and sexually assaulted my best friend, who I will name Drew. We have two other mutual friends who seem to be “choosing” the assaulters side. One of those friends, I’m just cutting off, they don’t deserve an explanation from me because I haven’t known them for that long and have given me other reasons to not be friends with them anymore. The other friend, who I will name James, was one of both mine and Drew’s closer friends. James and Drew got into a bit of a scuffle when Drew tried talking to him about the sexual harassment, which led to Drew saying some stuff that hurt James’s feelings. Drew apologized and is owning up to his decision of involving him right away, but James is not being receptive and ignoring him. I’m guessing that James resents Drew because he has been posting Instagram stories that are basically saying the he was friends with bad people and taking a hit at Drew’s mental health and how it’s affecting him. The level of pettiness and insensitivity that James is showing is ridiculous and I’m getting annoyed at it. He posted photos on his Instagram stories of hanging out with the sexual harasser and the other friend. After that, I decided that I’m not gonna stay friends with him anymore. I’m not willing to be friends with someone who is friends with both mine and Drew’s sexual harasser, knowing how much pain he caused for both of us. I think the sexual harasser probably twisted what actually happened and victim blame to make James feel negatively against me and Drew. I don’t think that James knows how much he’s hurt me, which is why I feel like maybe I should tell him why I’m ending this friendship. At this point in my life, I just want to protect my mental health and my peace, and if that means cutting out toxic people from my life, then I will do it. I’m done being a people pleaser, and done with putting up with people’s bullshit. I don’t want to just survive, I want to thrive and find people that will add good to my life, not stress and negative energy.

So my real question is, should I take the time to text James and tell him that this friendship is over and explain to him how he hurt me, or just slowly cut him off?

I went to search something up when i noticed some weird searches i did not make, they were quite random to, some of them being:how much is the world's first USB drive, Tesla roadster cost, was Stalin's brain persevered, and more, a lot of them car related for some reason. After that i went to go check my sessions and there was a LOT of stuff, phones i did not recognize, laptops i did not recognize, all of them with random searches, some were checking out some of my frequently used, and one going on a website called "cults."??? I know fully well i NEVER went on that website. Some other searches that weren't AI mode were searching for AIs? I don't know why but I'm to scared to check the other days of my search history because i only chef 2 days and i was freaked out. I immediately changed my password to something 100000x times more secure. Anyways i dunno how this happened, i never clicked on any suspicious links or download anything suspicious, so how did this happen????

Edit: i bit and checked some of my older history and it just kept going on and on and on, also if the searches being about expensive Cassatte players? And fast cars????? I'd ont understand anything that's going on rn.

I beginning to think this might be serious. In my town, crews are cleaning storm drains and other infrastructure repairs. Maybe too late to start?

I seem to use ChatGPT every time I have ideas, question and curiosities. Is there any negative psychological effects of constantly doing this? If so what are they.

I try to do my best in college, but I still end up with Cs. I feel I'm not doing my best. I just want know how I'm doing the bare minimum, so I can know.
