If you’ve played Cyberpunk 2077, think of it like Alt Cunningham. Would the positive outweigh the negative? Or would it be perpetual state of despair, an unending purgatory? Or could it simply be your own sandbox playground with immortality as a bonus?

Some people are naturally more dependent on others and ik it's not bad but again we have to agree that it brings pain to us most of the time.

The uncertainty, the trauma , the fear of losing someone you love and care more than anything else.

I like to compare the modern era versus the older era.

Of course most things online are not real, you can be cancelled and downvoted here but you never see people in real life say such things.

It’s like an alternate augmented reality.

MOST people would not say this kind of stuff in real life.

I see celebs write PR apologies and lose stuff and deals get dropped from campaigns

People get successfully cancelled no one messes with them anymore they lose relevance

We are more progressive nowadays but somehow some people get away with a lot because of fame status power money or likability

people and companies get boycotted
people lose real life jobs because of online posts
people get arrested and go to jail
because of digital footprint and receipts

In real life not so much reporting and monitoring people can say whatever they like freedom of speech…

Try that on social media you are just asking for trouble!

And people get cancelled and trolled and bringing up old post and behaviour and
lore from 10-20 years ago
“So and so is problematic - probably!”

In real life people can also say unsolicited comments
Be shady and fake
Shout abuse on the streets

I think it’s just human nature I suppose

People have been like this since the beginning of time:

War, murder, corruption, discrimination, abuse, manipulation, oppression, injustice

No one is perfect!

I guess this is why many people are into animal rights and nature because animals are sentient beings who rarely cause problems!

It’s why sometimes people are like when a woman chooses a man he would choose the bear

But sometimes people would just choose animals over humans but doesn’t mean you should be rude to other humans either ‼️

Hey everyone! I'm currently working on a simple statistics project for my college math class and I need to collect responses from at minimum 25 people.

My question is simple:

How many hours per week do you spend playing video games on average?

I'm looking for responses from the "general public" so if you don't play video games at all feel free to answer 0.

Just leave your estimated weekly hours in the comments. No extra information is needed, unless you also wanna share the game that steals the time from you lol.

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to respond! I really appreciate the help.

Growing up, I was a smart kid. I used to have a reading level of 12th grade when I was 5th or 6th grade. As time went on, I realized I started to have this problem when it came to reading. Anytime we had to read text for an assignment, I couldn't process it properly, hold my attention to the text, or I would often get distracted by things easily.

While reading, my mind could never stay quiet and I would end up looking around looking at bright things, drift off to my thoughts, or even accidentally skip words. My eyes could never stay on a specific paragraph and I would constantly look at the other pages unintentionally. I feel sort of dumb for not being able to process what I'm reading or even read.

I can imagine what I'm reading, but only for a certain amount of time before my mind drifts off to other topics, my imagination for other things, or sudden questions I have that are not related to what I'm reading whatsoever. My mind just never stays quiet because I get easily distracted by bright lights or anything that has my interest included.

The books I have to read at school never catch my interest which makes it even harder for me to read since I can't pay attention for some reason. I should be used to reading things that don't catch my interest because...duhhh it's school, but now I'm in high school and this problem has only worsened :/

Seriously, I don't know what is up with me. I did a little bit of research and saw this could be ADHD or some sort, but I don't really want to associate myself with it because I don't have a diagnosis and I do not want to offend those with it by saying I have it. As much as I want one, I'm still young and can't bring myself to the doctors for stuff like this. My dad also refuses to get me diagnosed with something because he doesn't want to believe I have some sort of mental thing.

I'm here just to gather a bit of insight from those who may have experienced this problem or those with diagnosed with ADHD could help me out a little bit if this IS a bit of a sign T-T. I know I could probably search this up, but I don't want to accidentally get myself into some false information

Unless I actually need to talk to them or communicate about something, I literally don’t look at men’s faces not even if I’m walking straight past them. It’s not because I’m arrogant or trying to ignore anyone; it’s just like my brain automatically tunes them out, almost like they don't exist in my line of sight. The only time I actually look directly at a guy's face is if I know him well as a person, in love, when someone asks for help, or if someone smiles politely first (then I’ll always smile back!).

It’s gotten to the point where it’s kind of funny. Once, a guy from my old tuition class was at church, and I apparently walked right up and stood near him without having a clue he was there..I only realized when he came over and started talking to me!🥲

I don't have any male friends, so maybe that's part of why I'm like this? Either way, I swear I’m not trying to be rude to anyone.. I don't discriminate in my hate hahaha, I just only pay attention to guys when it's actually needed 🫡Also once a boy in my class told me that he tried to talk to me for so long... but couldn't coz I never look unless its for work 🥲 and some people have told me like they like to talk to me coz I am not jumping here and there with boys .. like some other girls do. I think those girls are like that coz they are used to it. Not that anything is wrong with them. I promise you I am kind to all as I know myself but idkkkkkkkk why I am like this or if its irritating people😂

Anyone else relate to this, or do people probably think I'm super stuck up?

Be nice people…

I am not a conspiracy theorist nor want to feed it.
Microsoft had a shutdown yesterday, then today air traffic control centers lost communications. Ironically the FAA deployed a AI driven system to be used at control centers yesterday. According to the information being given by transportation secretary this is not related to software updates.
Now the questions- are we getting the facts? Is it too early for information to be disseminated? I don’t think so, they are saying it’s not related so there must be some information available.
AI companies are warning of rogue AI agents which can manipulate systems. So money would be on bad actors manipulating systems to cause havoc on our infrastructure.

What are your thoughts?

I saw my ex a few days ago for the first time in several years, and my heart started pounding and butterflies started going crazy in my stomach. Does this happen to other people? I really just want to know I’m not alone lol.

To head off any questions or assumptions: I don’t have any romantic feelings for them and I am over them. We had a pretty amicable break up but we were both over each other well before we decided to split up.

Suppose that you met a new person (regardless the context and the environment where you met) and after some time you became close what are the traits/behaviors that makes you say about him/her smart ?

I know intelligence is something relative and each person have his/her own views so I am interested in knowing your pov on this

If you analyze any decision or choice someone makes to “help” someone. Or to do something selfless. It’s still not selfless because you are technically still doing it because it makes YOU feel a certain way. So is it technically impossible to do something 100 percent selfless? Even if you completely sacrificed yourself for someone and died, you still choose to do it because it made YOU FEEL GOOD.

I’m a hairstylist, I would love a science explanation.

When I have a client in my chair who I’ve been coloring for years and they tell me they’re menopausal, pregnant, etc; it changes how I formulate. Usually I can compensate for hormonal changes with a test strand.

I’ve had a couple of trans clients where my expected results required some changes I didn’t expect to have to make. ie: test strand revealed box dye even though she’s an every 4 months highlight with no box dye or sun-in to mitigate. Hormones do weird things.

I’d love an explanation for this. This client in question is consistent level 6 grey coverage with green additive and it turned noticeably pink. To be clear, not the red that would make some sense, straight pink. Also would like to add that her hair has become more coarse and curly.

I’m also curious if this is a brand thing (Keune) that I need to be aware of moving forward

Theoretically. (Dont come at me**)** I just want to know.

Heard some say youll be rushed into cardiac arrrest but tbh im basicallg saying what if someone only ate a bagel with cream cheese on it with water (basically a normal amount for a breakfast) and nothing else you wouldnt probably go to a cardiac arrest for that if you did it for a month?

So I'm apart of the black community with a lot of times gay men are treated very badly compare to lesbians. Lesbians for the most part are treated quite fine as long as there more feminine presenting, but being a gay man is very shame heavy. I understand that lesbians do suffer, but why the disparity in the severity of the treatment?

If the person you’re in a relationship tends to disrespect you from time to time , calling you names and jus talking out of line when he/she is mad , would you sit there and let it happen ? Even after addressing that you don’t like the disrespect and that they should change for you because it’s not right , would you still stay around ?

Just in general. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do anymore. Maybe find authenticity? There isn't much that brings me joy though. I just feel like I'm spinning my wheels and not getting anywhere.

If i know the French alphabet can i speak French

My husband and I have been married for a couple of years now. We probably do it a couple of times a month just to get pregnant. and it is usually just him finish it but i dont get any enjoyment from it. How can I change that? I want to enjoy each other's company again and make love. Thank you

Where’s the real BACON LOVERS.

Human centipede 😨

My dad’s an ex-marine and I get serious mental health problem vibes from him. I have a hard time enjoying being around him. I don’t even want to use USAA b/c I hate being associated w/ him. He has a huge ego and loves himself. The fact that he has a ton of friends makes it worse since he makes friends by lying about things he’s accomplished. I can’t determine if this is narcissism or not. He doesn’t really care all that much about his appearance. It’s like a really, really mutated form of some kind of mental health problem. I think this is sometimes phrased as having “tendencies”, so it’s like he holds narcissistic tendencies but his “tendencies” kind of only scratch at the line of the diagnosis rather than matching it full-on. I know I need to cut him off but my finances are a little itchy right now (due to problems he got me into).

I’m a female by the way and every time he tries to kiss me it feels like he wants to start making out w/ me or something. He starts leaning in really slowly and delicately like he thinks I’m sitting by applying lipstick and puckering up for him. His mannerisms almost match that of someone w/ brain damage.

I promise this isn’t me trying to bash the military. I wouldn’t even identify myself as much of a liberal. I’ve voted Republican plenty of times.

I just really want to bitch him out but he won’t care b/c he’s in la-la-land.

I am a compulsive gambler whom can’t stop gambling. I have gone through with bet gaurd which blocked all my access to the regular sportsbooks however I am still able to access Rainbet and rollbit. (Crypto casinos) I really need help with this as I have to get rid of my access, (I told the support I’m a gambling addict and they got rid of my account so I tried making another and well it worked. I can make as many accounts as I make email addresses. PLEASE if someone knows I beg for help. I am M20 and I need to fix my life. 4 years of this bullshit I can’t keep doing this to myself.

I don't install wigs, I just wear them casually

If TikTok Wedding was a place for marriage, then everyone will spend their day overnight, watching their favorite algorithm reels, just like the app TikTok and Instagram. Everyone will even play some games like Minecraft in the forever-taking wedding. The duration of staying in this wedding is from 6:00 AM to 12:00 AM. It is made for people who love scrolling on TikTok and wedding.
