  The number of upvotes on this is concerning. It means there are a super majority of people who voted on this comment that don’t know how to talk to others, and feel alone.

  Mate, similar to how others have commented, you’re in a self-fulfilling cycle. You have to learn to just be relaxed first, talk with people for the sake of it, making friends, having fun.

  Randomly approaching a woman, isn’t a great way to strike up a conversation that leads to something more (outside certain more familiar contexts like a party).

  If your intentions are only “I’m gonna hit on this woman”, then you’re always gonna be creepy.

  Woman are just people. Get to know people in general and you’ll have a much better time.

  There are dozens of times a day where you can talk to people: in line, at work with colleagues, on public transport (if someone happens to mention something you know about and it’s not a private feeling conversation), hospitality staff, etc.

  These are not suggestions of how to find a partner, but of low-hanging opportunities for conversation.

  You may still be unattractive, which depending on why, you may or may not be able to work on, but this STILL doesn’t stop you from making friends or generally enjoying being around others.

  The way you’ve commented is learned helplessness, and I truly wish you the best, and hope you take steps to pull yourself out of it, with the support of those around you (and professional help, if it’s something available to you).

  All the best friend.

  The cool thing was I could use the same MetroCard for both

  Has this not been a thing for like 60 years practically everywhere?

  RIP cities that don’t have this.

  In conclusion, I approve of your lifestyle

  No one’s freaking out, just don’t eat too much. Many, many packaged things have a bunch of salt in them. And in general, it’s good to be aware of.

  Salt requirements obviously vary from person to person and depend on your activity that day (losing it to sweat) etc.

  You’re not gonna die from a bit too much salt every now and then.

  But as all things: In moderation.

  Just because the situation with fat was stupid (and, in my opinion, was because of marketing by vested interests to take the heat of sugar) doesn’t mean all health science is quackery.

  “Too much salt is bad for you” isn’t a radical take.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cooking 😋⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I might make a big dish of lasagne, maybe the meat has 3 or 4 teaspoons of salt,

  Seems fine to me. That’s about 4 daily doses of salt, depending how many servings that is, probably totally fine. This isn’t medical advice haha

  In any case, at least you’re having something delicious 😁

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cooking 😋⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course, unless you’re being terribly precise, you don’t know very accurately.

  Though, with the exception of pasta water, you can keep track via number of teaspoons as an approximation, or if you have precise scales tare off your container to see how much you’re using.

  Packaged foods are much easier.

  I personally just try to keep it minimal while keeping the food taste nice. I don’t measure my salt.

  I’m not saying change your habits, just be aware that excessive salt can he unhealthy!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cooking 😋⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is probably a joke, but do try to limit your salt intake to something healthy: www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/…/salt

  This doesn’t seem intuitive

  I point out, not even China does this (in the vast majority of cases, I’m not gonna claim it’s never happened)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shape up.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  People who go on holiday to the USA have something wrong in their brains.

  The landscapes, food and historical locations would be cool to see, but man, it’s bloody dystopian.

  Wtf, I knew this guy was a nutter, but never really knew that much about him.

  The USA is so screwed holy balls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨5 tomatoes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ll never forgive the French for going from grave to gram to kg as the base unit of mass.

  All my other base units don’t have a prefix :(

  Such a pity.

  BRING BACK THE GRAVE

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨5 tomatoes⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If it makes you feel any better, most pipe standards around the world are based on the American system, as well as bloody valve coefficients.

  I am far too aware that 1" is 25.4 mm :(

  And I’m in Australia. Grumble

  Me when some projects I’ve been on decide to use bar as the preferred unit with two decimal places typically shown: My sibling in engineering, at that point why not just use whole number kPa 😢

  SI master race.

  Of course I’ll take bar any day over anything non-metric.

  * Cries in practically all valve manufacturers using imperial valve coefficients. 😭😭😭 *

  Hey, some of us just want to have the biggest instance so we don’t have to rely on people subscribing to things. (Australia, I have 2 accounts)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon saves up⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  4 weeks vacation 38 hour work week.

  I look on at countries in Europe with their 5 or 6 weeks and 35 hour weeks with envy.

  But yeah, we (Australia) do have it pretty good in comparison to many other places.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hope you like math⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There being absolute fucks doesn’t imply positive and negative fucks though.

  It implies we’ve set a point to measure against which we call zero fucks.

  Perhaps there’s an absolute zero fucks which can never be reached.

  There’s arguably much more support for that, than stopkillinggames.

  But the political opposition to stopkillinggames is far less.
