Thanks for the explanation!

If only we could have a nice unexpected downturn that wouldn’t affect “us” right about now lol

But how do they pay off the loan? They eventually need some sort of cash of their own right? Do they literally borrow to pay off a loan and do that infinitely?

Honestly having the time to take those courses was why I even left my last job to take this factory job, but then COVID happened and everything got put on hold and the “omg recession” cycle started.

Unfortunately no, the shitty factory job gives nothing but some pie before thanksgiving. At least they give something I guess lol

I’m 39 and feel like it’s definitely too late for me. I’d be 42+ by the time I’m done and with the way the economy is and the job market in general I don’t think there would be any positive for me to go through that expense.

I basically just missed the boat, all my friends went to school for computer science when they were ~20 so they’re safe now and make an absolute killing. If I were to try that now I’d just join the like millions that can’t find work in that field… For the last 5 years every single day the news has been “omg a recession is coming, it’s coming, it’s definitely coming like tomorrow! Be afraid, it’s coming!” So I never left my shitty factory job, but now I just feel stuck…

Can I add more trolleys? Can the highspeed rail go back and cover the same path the trolley took? Please?

In a similar position, nowhere near what my perfect life would be. Not even remotely close to it ever happening.

Be in a loving relationship. (Been single for ~10 years. Longest relationship was 8 months…)

Have a secure job that pays well that I enjoy. (I’m 40, uneducated, and work in a factory.)

Own a home where I can have a garden and a workspace for crafts.(See #1&2 for why that’s never happening, currently renting a garage “apartment.”)

Fixing things. Mostly if it’s for someone else.

Unfortunately as far as work goes, two of the things that make me most unhappy: driving, traffic, are tied to the job of fixing things for people so I quit that job :/

This is how I feel literally every single day, and somehow every single day gives me a new reason to feel like this… I’m so sick of this timeline…

I haven’t smelled it in a while, but I don’t think I remember it smelling rotten. It wasn’t pleasant but also wasn’t really disgusting, it was just odd.

I don’t know what it is, but I can smell a somewhat metallic type smell on some specific people’s breath. It always smells very similar between different people. They generally aren’t very healthy, but no one seems to know what I’m talking about.

It’s either LSA or LSH, it’s been almost 20 years since I made it so I forget which is which, but basically the process involves extracting one of those and turning it into the more potent other.

For me it was like a much weaker LSD, but you still felt it quite a bit.

Lol a few days straight, but then just sporadically over a few months. I didn’t notice much as far as tolerance buildup over those few days

I did LSD for a few months when I lived with a few friends, I loved that stuff.

LSA is pretty cool too and you can make it yourself without any risk of poisoning. Not sure about the rules so I won’t explain how unless someone says it’s cool lol

As far as what constitutes a good sense of humor I think there are a few ways to see it. One way to see it is being able to “take a joke,” to know that you shouldn’t be offended depending on the joke.

Another way to see it is the actual understanding/ability to make jokes and to know when to do so.

A third way to see it is with your eyes.

…ok I’ll leave. :P

The hard part is that you have to be opposed to the marriage as well. She has to choose you, latch on, and then yandere you down the aisle against your will.

I’ve been single for the last decade, resisting it that much will be impossible lol

They’re saying you’re taking things too literally and not thinking about the potential meaning of the sentence.

There is a belief that a lot of Vegans basically preach to others and look down on people who still consume meat. Their use of AI Vegan was meant to utilize that background and apply it to AI, so they don’t want to come off as someone preaching or being a snob about their issues with AI.

The Costanza Rule is real, but any attempt to utilize it is a paradox.

Rule: any decision I make is the wrong decision because I made it therefore I should always do the opposite.

But to do the opposite is also a choice I am making and therefore it too will be the wrong choice.

Ah yes the Incels famous novel: Atlas Sucks
