- Comment on Anyone feeling like doesn't belong anywhere? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve lived in one country all my life and don’t feel like I belong anywhere, so I can’t really help you there :D
I don’t really care that much though, I’m personally just fine “belonging” to a few specific people I know, no matter where they are.
- Comment on What was the stupidest form of US defaultism you've encountered in real life whilst they're abroad? 2 weeks ago:
You did not notice that both of your examples have nothing to do with “US defaultism” but just normal properties of shitty humans?
I’ve heard Britons and Singaporeans speak like this about English, and I’ve even heard people whose language is not even the “world language” like Germans or Italians speak like that.
Same with the currency thing, I’ve seen people do that same thing with Euros and Yen.
This is not a US-specific thing, it’s just a privileged/narcissistic/patriot human thing.
- Comment on Land where 3 weeks ago:
Sounds good at first, it’s just that they splash down in water at 7.5m/s.
- Comment on Germany already told its workers to ditch four-day weeks and work-life balance—now the government wants to cut their pay for calling in sick too 3 weeks ago:
They don’t really care that much, they’re being paid for this, once they’re paid, they don’t care what comes after.
- Comment on Why are prop, non functioning guns way more expensive than airsoft guns? 3 weeks ago:
I would assume a decent amount also comes down to marketing. Airsoft guns are used by teenagers or just not seen as important to spend money on, while if you are idk, someone making a movie or whatever, you have more money to spend and thus the same/similar thing can be sold for more.
- Comment on Why is it that when the graphics driver freaks out in your browser when watching a video, the page always turns this specific shade of green? 3 weeks ago:
That doesn’t really answer the question though. Obviously it’s the side effect of some kind of glitch, but why is it always this green, why not orange or blue
- Comment on they say we never really touch something because our electrons repel.. so how does something like dirt stay on my hands when it's not really touching my hands? 4 weeks ago:
I recently made this comment. This post reminds me again of that :D
- Comment on The Sounds of Silence 4 weeks ago:
I’m not sure if “have to” is true. I’m sure they could refuse.
- Comment on Thanks to Artemis II mission, Kerbal Space Program records a highest concurrent player count since 1.0 release 4 weeks ago:
I actually learned about Artemis 2 because I was engaged in a KSP RealismOverhaul community that talked about it, so the other way around for me lol
But I definitely built a SLS+Orion
- Comment on Is it the American way to complain about the US, or is it that other countries aren't worth complaining about? 4 weeks ago:
What language do you think Japanese or Spanish people complain about their country in? How often do you visit places where these languages are spoken?
- Comment on It hurts. 5 weeks ago:
Lucerne
Or literally every city in Europe
- Comment on How do you fight abandonment issues when people keep abandoning you 1 month ago:
What helped me was roughly two beliefs:
- That “worth” is not necessary, life is/humans are entirely fine existing without any concept of it
- There are other people equally “unworthy” as me (or more) and I’d tell them it’s fine, so why wouldn’t I extend the same to me?
- Comment on What are some good, populated multiplayer games that have a free-for-all mode? 1 month ago:
Beyond All Reason regularly fills up FFA lobbies.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
The whole concept of “degenerate” is irrelevant. It’s a way to control behavior of other people via shame. It is irrelevant what you do as long as you don’t hurt anyone else with it.
- Comment on How do slugs not get eaten? 1 month ago:
Just to be a little more detailed than other answers:
Like they said, they get eaten a lot, but they also reproduce a lot more. Think about something like dust in a room. Dust has no chance against your cleaning, when you wipe off a surface, the dust is gone. Same if something decides to eat the slug, the slug is eaten.
But when you clean a room, do you always clean absolutely everywhere? Did you clean the dust from the top of the lamps? The dust from below the carpet? While you were off cleaning one side of the room, didn’t some new dust already settle on the surfaces you just cleaned? And so on.
So yes, you’re absolutely correct in everything you say. But defending yourself is not necessary when there’s just so much of your species that they can’t all get eaten at the same time.
- Comment on what should I do, or what can I even do? 1 month ago:
You’re online, so I would research ways to actually leave the country. I can’t help you with that, because I have no knowledge in that regard, but I’m sure there must be ways, it’ll not be easy though. I hope you’ll find a way.
- Comment on What happens to flies when you let them fly out the window of a car at 75 mph? 1 month ago:
My assumption is that they’d just be swept off with the wind and nothing else happening to them. But it depends if they hit the side of the car/the window frame once they go out, if they do, I assume it would end like the ones on my windshield, i.e. splat, if not, they just get accelerated to wind speed and once they are accelerated, it’s just like flying through 0 mph wind, even if relatively, they’re going 75 mph.
- Comment on So say, someone lives in an English speaking country and wanna see a movie in the threaters but they struggle to understand English, how are they supposed to watch it? 1 month ago:
I know it’s hard, I also have lots of experience getting over fears. I was myself extremely socially afraid and afraid of all kinds of things in a less severe manner.
I have an Singaporean girlfriend right now who is similar, who I’m helping through it as well.
Believe me, I know the struggle. It’s so unbelievably hard to do things you’re afraid of and the main problem is that it all happens inside your head. All the effort you’re putting in is basically invisible to an outsider. They might push you because they don’t see how much you’re already doing, which just makes it worse because you start feeling like you should be doing more, and then on top of feeling afraid you also feel like shit because you do “so little”, which is not little at all.
You can do it, I believe in you :D if you want any more words, I’m here, I don’t wanna ramble on and on lol

The separation anxiety doesn’t go away if you don’t separate sometimes.

🤣👍
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
I didn’t even make any argument for or against AI, just an argument regarding your behavior.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
This clearly shows that you are willing to talk out of your ass. The early Internet was filled with some of the smartest people alive, the mass of shitty content did not arrive yet because it wasn’t accessible to the masses. At the beginning, the Internet was literally only scientists. A little later, it was only very open people not scared to try something new and excited about the future and about foreign cultures, with corresponding amazing content.
Only after this initial period, when the internet became commonly used, did it turn shit. Stop trying to manifacture arguments for your position and truly do what you acted like setting out to do, understand other people’s concerns.
- Comment on Would you ever call your son a disappointment? 1 month ago:
I can’t be disappointed when I didn’t have any expectations
- Comment on I am only now discovering the sheer addictiveness of Sid Meier's Civilization. 1 month ago:
I helped develop Unciv.
Have fun.
- Comment on Anon introduces himself 1 month ago:
So as soon as you learn to talk, you can handle every social situation adequately? That’s news to me.
You may not understand this particular issue, because you never had trouble introducing yourself publicly. But you probably struggled at something else, and don’t you think training would (or did) help you there?
- Comment on Anon introduces himself 1 month ago:
How do you know how old anon is?
- Comment on Anon introduces himself 1 month ago:
Of course. But as the first thing overall with no prior training about it at all? No coaching about examples on what to say, no advice about your choices before the real thing?
- Comment on Anon introduces himself 1 month ago:
It’s not training though, you get thrown into the real thing immediately that decides the rest of your social time at school.
If you were encouraged and made to practice in private before, then I would agree with you.
- Comment on Anon observes a coworker 2 months ago:
As opposed to inaudibly shouting
- Comment on Why do they turn Federation into a dystopia? 2 months ago:
Then you should start with that :D
