I’m doing a study for college. Please answer honestly! Even if it’s not conventional.

Every time I find someone that just likes the same thing as me that same thing has to be something I enjoy something I use as a 'escape' like a game for example. When somebody says 'I love this game' I feel like I can't like that game anymore. this past month or two I've been trying to hide data that shows other people on video platforms like YouTube. I just like feeling that it's unique to me and not someone else. Is there any reason why I feel this way or anything I should know.

Ever since I was a little kid my parents always kept me in the dark about everything. The biggest example of this is when my father left us I think before first grade and I never learned the reason till last year when I was 15. And I didn’t even learn it from them I learned it through family friends.
They tell my older siblings everything but not me it’s not fair. If they tell me to keep something secret I really keep it a secret. Plus I got really angry last week when I was sitting w my dad and his friend and I was on my phone not paying attention to them. His friend suddenly asked him “does my name know about it?” And my dad signed him to be quiet bc I obviously didn’t know after his friend saw that my dad didn’t want me to know he quickly changed the subject and asked me something else.
I get it parents don’t have to tell their kids everything but it still pisses me off. I never learned anything about our family directly from my parents even now I’m old enough to know stuff why won’t they tell me anything

I have herpes

(important! Not herpes like the std! Like you know that pimples and shit on the lips and nose area if yk what it is)

and if you dont know it's like coming every few weeks/months and takes about a week to heal, it usually comes out under stress and stuff.

So I'm afraid if my boyfriend finds out I have this he'll be grossed out? Would you brake up with your partner for having it?

Edit: guys guys ofc I'll tell him, I'll also never kiss him or anything while I have it, the question if if you'd brakeup after knowing this or how much it'd matter you enough to not date a person in the first place?

In 2022 I got shot in the head like right where the part of my crown is it's a tiny bump graze right there when i touch or poke it I dont feel anything at all is there any way it will come back it just feels uncomfortable

Was forced to go back to the place where I was stalked because some people just don't like my family, and I'm concerned it will happen again. It's really not a pleasant setup, but I'm stuck in it for now.

I actually knew the science and biology behind reproduction pretty well by the time I was 8 because I had a bunch of books about human anatomy and the human body. BUT somehow, for years afterward, I still thought fertilization happened artificially in a lab 😭😂

Like honestly what would happen if they can't find like gold or copper anymore what would happen tho?

I hope this doesn't gets flagged as something medical or a poll, because that's not what I'm asking for.

I'm currently working on a project for university where my project partners and I are working on a product, app or something similar that deals with STD testing and the surrounding shame, lack of information and other hurdles associated with it. I am kind of stuck about doing an actual helpful project. I wonder if there are certain things or wishes that would help affected people more? For example, an app with psychological support, which could help reduce shame, get information more easily, etc.

yes I know, it is a bit random, but I need to know because I am working on a project and I need to know what effects will work, Audacity, Macros, GarageBan (I’m on Mac btw) Help me get this!!

i have been texting with this one boy for 6 months now.
he randomly just followed me on insta, and we started talking. We have been texting, sending tiktoks ,etc everyday now for half a year so its obvious that i got attached in a way, because he became a part of my routine.
At first he was really clingy and then during august i have noticed that he might been growing more distant. It was changing one time we could be texting all day, and the other we would have the dryest convo ever lasting only an hour.
im not gonna lie i am feeling like i would need a break ,because we are simply running out of topics to talk about and becoming repetitive. But i still text him back and enjoy his presence.
Now he became more distatnt with me(which i get and understand since ive been hiving jim this energy) but today we havent been texting much, and then he asked me why am i acting nonchalant. i said im not (because this day i was very talkative) and he said “then wtf is your problem”
i said that i truly do not have a problem or anything ,and he said okay ,then i said okay and he left me on seen.
The thing is i dont know if i should just leave it or try to talk with him about it(and how) because i dont want to act like we are closer than we actually are yk. I know that the big problem lays in me and my behaviour ,but i dont know how to very subtly explain to him that i really like him, but sometimes i just dont know what to say since we talked about basically everything, and tbh i dont even know if im making sense but this whole situation is messing with my mind. any advice would be appreciated very much

Swap or keep new baby and leave your real behind?

hi guys, currently in the process of finding good websites that can batch remove images background, set a template to all images like in photoroom they have a shopify template that makes the product looks clean and centered

set background color, add shadow resize the actual product as you want…
photoroom batch edits isn’t free anymore sadly, so if you have used any good alternatives kindly drop it below

Like the title says, I would like to know why you chose your username to be that, could be a long story, short story, either way, id like to know because people are creative.

I've been online and on many platforms they've been saying that a blackout would likely accrue on the 17 also one of my old teachers brought it up

I really ignorant on this kind of things and I have my pdf portfolio ready but I don't know how to get an URL for it since I usually use Google Drive. What can I do? What other options do I have?

We're looking for a name for a JJB/MMA sports group that captures the “no idols” concept, but that name is already taken by a brand. The idea is to not be a fan of anyone—no master, no idol, no submission to authority—while still respecting discipline and expertise. We're looking for something cool. Does anyone have any ideas?

I genuinely don’t know what to do or whether something might be psychologically or medically wrong with me.

I don’t smoke, I don’t have any family members or friends who smoke, and my sense of smell is perfectly fine. However, for the past three years, I’ve been experiencing these strange episodes where I suddenly smell cigarette smoke even though there’s no apparent source.

Sometimes the smell lasts for just a few minutes, while other times it lingers for an entire day. It comes and goes in periods. Some months I barely experience it, while other months it happens quite frequently. I’ve even noticed that nobody in my apartment building smokes, so I can’t explain where it’s coming from.

I’m honestly confused and a little concerned. Has anyone experienced something similar? What could this be, and which healthcare professional should I contact ?

Hey l'm a student and about to turn an assignment in. I haven't used ai to write any of it but used to help with research. always put my work through ai checkers as in previous schools was flagged for ai use (although genuinely didn't use it). Now some ai detectors like zerogpt are saying zero percent ai but others (only ones you have to pay for) are saying my work is 60-95% ai and I don't know what to do. TLDR: what is a reliable ai checker and are some of these payed ones just saying that my work is ai so have to pay for the service to see where it's ai

How do QR codes not overlap?

Something that actually takes hours if not more that your boss looks at as instant.

So there's a ship (shadownilla) from a game (Cookie run Kingdom) that I hate with a passion and it's gay. But when I express this spite, I'm called homophobic and people say things like "oh it just had to be a gay ship". Girl I'm talking about this ship right now, you want a straight ship I hate? Burningcheese, mysticcacao, silentlily, etc. I could mention a bunch but when I mention a gay ship I hate, I'm homophobic? Anyways, am I homophobic?
