- Comment on Is creatine safe? 1 week ago:
I might be confused, but I thought creatine gives your muscles a minor"second wind" kinda thing so you can push yourself to do some extra reps? It’s not like a steroid kinda thing, I was told.

- Comment on Harm production 2 weeks ago:
I think there’s a huge spike in gambling if that counts.
House always wins, my main takeaway from a few high school probability classes, a horrible first time at a casino and Fallout New Vegas probably.
So many people are desperate and throwing their money and hope at that predatory and shockingly under-regulated industry
I’d say it’s probably worse and less manageable than most central nervous system surprises available at the gas station
Hope you’re less afraid? I am high, so I could all be, like, stupidly wrong.

You have to retroactively do what I did and cripple your attention span to a point where if you see any piece of text longer than a few sentences, your brain just automatically skips past it

I wanted to see my recommendations :{
Not rooted, or flashing a custom ROM, so I can’t delete the play store.
Also, my bank app wasn’t installing properly from Aurora. I don’t remember what the exact issue was, but it was too much of a hassle to figure out (or change banks)
But that second profile idea is smart
I should have done that

That’s awful. I’m sorry the local resources available to you are horrific. I’m sorry I sound like a fucking robot. I’m treading lightly. I’m not an expert. I don’t know what you or people reading this may be going through.
If the crisis line is going to send a psychopath with a gun to your home, do not ring that line.
There are international resources available that don’t dispatch armed units to your exact location. I haven’t used any of them, so I can’t vouch for them.
There is no one size fits all solution for a crisis. As I understand it, the main goal is just to get the person in crisis talking to another human being. Apparently that helps a lot.
It doesn’t have to be a crisis line. It could just be someone who might care.
Please go well, friend. I truly hope you have brighter days ahead.

Depending on how serious you are:
Choose weed instead
Or the crisis line. You probably already know where to find it. Help is available. You do not have to suffer alone. I love you homie.

- Comment on girlfriend 2 months ago:
You’re not wrong, although I feel like the implication in this context was slightly more antagonistic.
i.e. “It’s only a matter of time before she leaves your sorry ass”

He’s not accusing televangelist fraudsters, war criminals, or deceptive, charismatic, powerful world leaders that threaten religious freedom.
Isn’t that him and his entire social circle?
if you asked a random person off the street:
hi which one of these people do you think is most likely the Antichrist:
- Greta Thunberg (Climate Activist)
- Eliezer Yudkowsky (AI researcher)
- Peter Thiel (Chairman of Palantir)
I’m going to guess most people will pick option 3.
I didn’t even know who Eliezer was, I just skimmed his Wikipedia page.
I’m an atheist, but hearing about a billionaire defense contractor who goes on rants about the antichrist makes me think “hmm maybe this dude is the Antichrist”.
It just reminds me too much of those super anti-paedophilia guys who make anti-paedophilia their entire personality and then turn out to have terabytes of CSAM on their laptop.
- Comment on What are they hoping to find there? 🤔 2 months ago:
I had a colleague from overseas looking to visit Soweto
I said something to the effect of “Brother why would you do that, don’t you have a family?”
But apparently there are legitimate tour programmes that go in there now. Super safe for visitors. I had no clue.
I mean, you still basically get robbed by the tour company, but if you’re used to dollars or euros, you probably won’t even notice.
