Skincare tip(s)

This is going to sound so obvious to some of you but I’ve just started doing this and it’s worked really well for me. I’ve had acne all my life (in my 30s now). Sorry if this sounds silly: Wash your face with hot water to open up your pores. Put soap on it. Wash the handsoap (preferably cleanser) away with cold water. Do this in the shower as well. It actually works lol

Who is the modern day Trotsky? (In any medium/field)

The once great hero who just became annoying as fuck and an out and out nuisance who undermined everything he believed in.

What is the differences between love and infatuation?

And how meaningful is the difference? I have told my best friend a couple of times that I love her , and she thinks it’s infatuation and that it will come to pass. In our two years knowing each other, we have been through and done so much together. she has her reasons to say and think this way, her life is incredibly complex. She says she really does believe it and she says she has a better perspective since the feeling is familiar to her since she’s a girl. I obviously think differently but I have to defer to her at the moment.

I’m sorry but as a brown dude, having a hot white female friend is pretty much a cheat code in life

I was out tonight with her, and some gay dude called me the n word, and instead of me having to confront this cretin and make a scene with me looking like an aggressor, I told her about it and she fucking called this dude out in front of the entire hotel and not only had him kicked out but literally crying and making him and his friends aplogetically begging the staff lmao Like, out of all possibilities, with me perhaps fighting this dude in front of his entire lib ass posse, this was probably the safest and most satisfying lol. It sucks this entire world works like this but get a pretty white girl on your side and you’ve got everyone shitting bricks

Too many of you are g*mers

I’ve always understood this site to be anti-gamer but for some reason I’ve always chosen to blind myself to the fact that many of you are just selfdepricating gamers. You’re not really invested in the cause. I feel like I’m in an Alcoholics support group and I’m the only one not drinking while you guys just hate on yourselves. I feel like a clown, feeling supported by TRAITORS. I stand alone with a double barrel shotgun surrounded by people double handing gamecube controllers what the FUCK

Lot’s of books/therapeutic tools focus on how to deal with self-criticism, self-doubt, negative self talk. How do you deal with external criticism and attacks from others?

A lot of us are trans/queer and/or brown and I feel like a lot of selfhelp and modern psychology books don’t really delve much into how to deal with verbal harassment or even self-hatred that’s a result of hatred from others. Any good advice on this? Any good books on there on how to deal with this?

Anyone ever feel personally insulted by a scene in a TV show/movie? The entire line by Queen Maeve saying ‘take your fucking twink and get the fuck out of here’ was so mean ;_;

So much visceral meanness. What did twinks do to her? https://youtu.be/oSzo9jF8JXA

Anyone watch The Man in the High Castle

The premise of this show was great, the sets and cinematography were great, there’s scenes and whole episodes ghat are absolutely fantastic, show even starts off great. But the liberal brainrot would never have allowed this show to become much more than low effort fantasy. Somehow turns an interesting setting of the US being occupied by the Nazi empire into some fucking Haruki Murakami esque fever dream about butterflies and time portals, without any mention of the soviets. This show had so much potential

STEM dorks, gather around and give me some interesting topics to learn

I’m a mechanical engineer. well, by education anyways, and I’m unemployed at the moment. I’ve literally zero specialty and I pretty much don’t know shit and while I’ve got time to endlessly masturbate in my parent’s house and read, I might as well get some inspiration on what fields I should pursue. Right now I’m reading this Molten Salt and Thorium reactor textbook https://libgen.is/book/index.php?md5=3443A53C8E110C4700A45CBC34CE3328

Anyone ever have a therapist/psychologist who was any good at dealing with people who didn’t already have their shit together?

Like, I’ve had several therapists/psychologists/psychiatrists/counselors throughout my life who either seemed disinterested or flat out unfit to deal with people like me, and I don’t even think I’m the worst case scenario (who knows, maybe I am?). What’s their main demographic, who do they even help? Yuppies, professionals, people in manager positions who already have had successful professional, social, and dating lives? They’re already too expensive for most of the population, they seem to be absolutely oblivious to the problems of most men of color or trans folks or most gay folks, they can’t help early career young people, definitely not working class people, like what the fuck are they good for? And can people just shut the fuck about ‘just go to therapy, honey’, ‘men will do anything but go to therapy’ like fuck off. I went to therapy, and holy shit yeap, the world still sucks and society is still extremely hostile to me. Oh I can change my reaction to things? to live in delusion is almost what they seem to be prescribing and nah, I’d rather just save the 100 dollars per session and spend it on 2 months supply of fucking OxyContin. And motherfucker, if you’re a psychiatrist, and I’m here for adderall or anxiolitics or fucking laxatives, you had better fucking give it to me. I didn’t fucking pay 150 to prescribe me children’s medication or to be lectured about the importance of therapy.

Any good iOS/web games?

I don’t have a console and it’s been a while since I was a gamer but every once in a while I desire to play an immersive game, and my laptop probably can’t run much. Any games you all recommend for AyyPhone?

I haven’t been able to find a job in 16 months and it feels like I have to pass through the eye of the needle to have a life

I got a bachelors degree in mechanical engineering from a ‘good school’ and yet I never got a good entry level job in the field so I was just wandering the wastelands for a long while before I got a good corporate bullshit job from which I got fired after 3 years and now I have no actual engineering skills and tens of thousand in college debt I’m 33 and live with my parents and I’m in this constant cycle of living with them until I find a good job in some far away city. They live in a remote place where the only jobs available are 7.50 and yet the living costs are absurd so really, you’re pretty much working just to work. The problem is I can’t move out and do human things such as live by own and have a meaningful because I need a decent salary to survive, and that can only happen if I get something in a far away big city. I don’t want to have to fend for peanuts living paycheck to paycheck(i’ve already tried that a couple of times) in some rathole in a city but I also hate living with my parents so I’m forced in an all or nothing mindset where I need to have a decent salary. I wish I could just take a low wage jobs in some other city but the logistics don’t allow me to. I feel like I’m rambling, I just feel incredibly stuck, my social life and dating lives are nonexistent and I’m completely fucking broke. I just masturbate all day in my parents house. I have a degree that should be lucrative according to this shitass society, I’m not the archetype of a basement dwelling reddit loser because I do have drive and have moved from place to place and worked and clawed my way through life and stay fit and know how to talk to women and I constantly feel like I shouldn’t be where I’m at but…I kind of am a fucking loser. Experience shows me that, I guess, this too shall pass and I should land on my feet but god damn I’m regressing constantly and every aspect of my life can’t be moved forward if Instay with my parents in this town. Sorry to rant

Do people actually think the far right is going to do anything more than fart if Trump loses?

https://www.reddit.com/r/TikTokCringe/comments/1ekr2fe/if_harris_wins_political_violence_is_almost/ I swear to god dude, out of all things that will precipitate the balkanization of USA, it’s Trump losing, it’s officially clown fiesta of a reality. It’s 2024, tomatoes are 25 dollars a pound and a dozen eggs costs a 15 year mortgage, we are absolutely fucked if this is what mobilizes this country.
