- Comment on Do you think Social Media is just exaggerated as being placed of being the source of all problems? 2 days ago:
Social media as a concept is not evil or whatever, but a platform with millions and millions of users under corporate control puts a lot of power and influence in the hands of a very small elite. This is the problem. Not the technology itself. With regulation or decentralisation the problem can be fixed. Imo.
- Comment on Good to exercise at home instead of gym? 4 days ago:
So my biggest tip, if you want to start out exercising make sure you have a clear goal. For me the goal is to feel good in my limbs and body, so I don’t have pains and aches and have more energy. For others it is looks or muscles or mental health or whatever.
If you know why you are doing something it is a lot easier to do. I think focus often ends up on the visible aspects like looking better or losing a little weigth but these goals will take a lot more commitment than just feeling good by exercising, so make sure you know what the goal is and that you are realistic about it.
For doing at home, you could start with easy yoga and some weights and a RUBBER BAND. Rubber bands are fucking awesome for at home exercise. Put it under your foot, around a doorknob… Whatever. Short jogs are underrated. Five minutes around the block is a good warmup.
Jog five minutes, do a yoga set 20-30 minutes (find on youtube for example, eventually design your own), then rubber band exercises for ten or so and done. That is a good exercise you can do at home in many different ways.
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 1 week ago:
That’s true, there is some really cool stuff that isbrarely mentioned.
- Comment on What mythologies have poor representation in media, in your opinion? 1 week ago:
Zoroastrianism would be cool. Basically the answer is anything not europe or specifically egypt but I always felt that for example a hindu god killer game would be fkn sick. Like either GoW format or Diablo-like.
- Comment on Redditors told me to go to a therapist but I can’t afford one nor pick one from thousands available. What now? 1 week ago:
Translation: I have written a post about my thoughts online. I was told to seek therapy, but I don’t have enough money to pay for one. What now?
Tis a joke.
- Comment on Why are autistic people so odd?? 1 week ago:
Maybe you are odd to us! I think many neurotypicals are odd, but not because they are neurotypical specifically.
People are different and it is generally a bad idea to assume it is because of some diagnostic they got or not.
I think the more you get to know most people they seem stranger and stranger, especially as you grow up and start to understand the reasons people value what they value and just how different everyone is.
- Comment on i’m scared of my boyfriend because he’s dry and doesn’t want to initiate a relationship, should i break up because of the latter part? 1 week ago:
Bots or teens take your pick… But yeah there have been several odd similar ones today.
- Comment on Anon is dense 1 week ago:
Oh god I just had a flashback… I remember a festival I was at in my teens, after a week of doing acid, molly and RCs I was more or less not present, smoking a spliff watching Sexy Sushi play as the sun came up. Two girls come up to me, take my spliff, take a hit, blow it into the others mouth with a kiss and then mine. I am on way too much acid (and way too inexperienced) to do anything but keep smiling and smoking… I don’t think I could have done much else even if I wanted too, but it really didn’t even register as any sort of flirting at the time. I can’t remember them leaving but I guess they did? Anyways, I feel you anon…
- Comment on If I use winrar to compress 80gb of tv and movies. Then can I compress it further by making it an iso? 1 week ago:
Man compression is way cooler than I imagined.
- Comment on How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach? 2 weeks ago:
I’ll be honest, I never hear anyone say vos in Spain, except an Argentinian who said it all the time and it sounded really odd
- Comment on Spotify Premium "Ad Free" plan 5 weeks ago:
Nice. Any chance my existing spotify accound could get banned or something? I want some QOL changes but am afraid of losing ~400 playlists…
