Dropped like 5% and has mostly recovered.
Just not as much as I’d want.

Literally any drug that is psychoactive can induce psychosis.
Yes. It is real.
However, not “causal”. Marijuana doesn’t cause psychosis (in the same way that 'guns don’t kill people, people kill people). Psychoactive drugs can induce psychosis is the accurate way to articulate this.
- Comment on How is the current AI bubble when compared to the .com bubble in the early 2000's? 5 days ago:
When you see a pets.ai that will talk to your let’s, you know we’ve reached .com level saturation.

Can’t afford a phone?
No discount for you!!
This is a discriminatory practice, and it’s been going on for way too long. Every offender needs to be fined wildly for this shit.

Ok if for some reason, let’s say I like, went viral for wearing a speedo on a dare, and suddenly the whole internet is like “yo wheres his OF at?”
Absolutely. It’d be a quick few fucking million dollars.
But like, as a nearly 40 year old dude who has no general recognition? I would earn $0. There are tons of penises to look at just like mine out there for free.

If this happened to my gf this person would be my new hobby. I would be thoroughly pwning everything theyve ever touched online. Kid gloves off, black hat on.
- Comment on Why would a UTF-8 MySQL backup contain invalid UTF-8 characters? 2 weeks ago:
It could be a lot of things! For example:
A PDF or other binary file stored in a text field might get misinterpreted as non-UTF-8 characters during a backup.
Similarly, audio or video files—or any kind of binary data—stored inappropriately in text fields could cause issues.
It could also be due to corrupt data or improper encoding when the data was inserted into the database.
Essentially, anything non-textual or incorrectly encoded could result in invalid UTF-8 characters showing up in a backup.
- Comment on No one: Laptop. Could this be hardware or software related? 2 weeks ago:
GPU.
Update or rollback drivers and see if it stops.

Exercise.
If you are literally only able to focus on inhaling and exhaling, the ruminative thoughts will not stand a chance.

- Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? 4 weeks ago:
Not everyone has stable income. And for them, attacking debt isn’t always possible, especially after they go to get their car inspected and have a $1000 bill to settle in order to get to work for their unstable income. That’s starting your emergency fund goes first.
You need your initial emergency fund to reasonably cover “a bump in the road”. You then get stable, attack debt, and build emergency fund to be 3-6months expenditures, in case of a serious emergency.
Only then do we begin gambling in the investment markets.
- Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? 4 weeks ago:
Terrible advice.
Emergency money literally must be liquid or it is not, by definition, emergency money.
- Comment on Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? 4 weeks ago:
Do you have emergency money?
First start emergency fund, then take care of debt. Then build a savings for emergency fund, then invest.
- Comment on Is it ethical for a parent to distribute inheritance based on the child(ren)'s mental capacity (aka refusing to give an inheritance to child(ren) with reduced mental capacity)? 5 weeks ago:
100%
Anyone who doesn’t understand this has no family that’s dealt with family breaking over money.
- Comment on Is it ethical for a parent to distribute inheritance based on the child(ren)'s mental capacity (aka refusing to give an inheritance to child(ren) with reduced mental capacity)? 5 weeks ago:
If you’re cool with that kid killing themselves in your name then yeah.
Otherwise what the absolute fuck is wrong with you (not you, OP)? No. This 100% makes you a horrible human being who should have never procreated to begin with and you’re a failure as a parent.
- Comment on Are there humans who require heating lights like pet reptiles? 5 weeks ago:
Not exactly but some people have weaker hearts/poor circulation/etc.
- Comment on Do you consider Taylor Swift to be of the working class and why? 1 month ago:
Is this a joke?
Anybody who does not have to work is not working class. That’s how it works.
Chris Pratt wouldn’t suddenly be “working class” if he quit acting and became a plumber.
He’d be a hobbyist plumber. Perhaps a professional plumber. But he is not working class.
Guy in my city got bonkers rich off of software in his 20s, fucked off to Thailand to idk appease his cultural fetishes, came home with a wife, and now they run a restaurant.
They do not need that restaurant.
Dude works hard. And if I were to ask him if he were working class, he’d laugh, say absolutely not, and buy me a beer.
- Comment on Am I a bad person if (as left as they come) I invest in American Private Prison contractors on the assumption that Trump will go through with his deportation scheme at least to some extent? 1 month ago:
Depends on how much you’re investing. Is it an amount that is not a drop in their bucket? Congrats, you’re evil.
Is it chump change to any millionaire? Don’t sweat it. You’re literally incapable of changing the course with your buy in.
- Comment on Why do people with lots of 'karma points' tend to be nothing but egotistical assholes? 1 month ago:
Because they’ve learned to write responses in ways that get them lots of ego rubs
The medium is the message.
Someone who is good at social media is good at what social media rewards.
Ego. A narcissist.
- Comment on how do you workout when you don't have much time? 1 month ago:
Can you walk to a place instead of drive daily?
I replaced a 10 minute commute with a 45 minute walk. Got me walking nearly 8 hours a week. ~20 miles.
I think building it into your routine rather than making it an event is key.

Yeah if you backpack you can make use of it.
Otherwise: no.
