I love my progressive friends, but it really is crazy how negative they are. They are like recreationally miserable
I really do think it’s socially desirable and encouraged in progressive culture and it’s not all just an organic response to hardship or mental illness
Im no longer paying a landlords mortgage, I've legally been able to personalize the place to my liking, its not cramped when I have people over, and when I own it in 10 years (not 30) I can rent for dirt cheap to friends who are less fortunate to fund a second property.
explaining to people why taking on a 30 year mortgage for a 95% leveraged asset with a declining population and a median buyer age of 58 for a house is a bad idea
Owning a house is objectively godlike. If you're trying to be a real estate mogul and failing you're probably just not smart enough. The average person purchasing within their means is winning hard. You might not be able to afford dense metropolitan on low 6 figures !!
One time I showed a girl the movie Perfect Blue and she was so distraught by the content that I vowed to only show women sanitized movie choices from then on.
A girl showed me Love and Pop last night and I've never been more confused. Sometimes you just roll the dice I guess.
at a job interview
"whats your biggest weakness?"
"understanding the semantics of a question but ignoring the pragmatics"
"could you give an me an example?"
"yes i could"
guy at the bar saw me drawing and we got to talking and i asked him if he drew or painted and he said his art is playing baseball and i unironically love that. fuck yea dude. there is art in everything we do. go paint with your bat.
I feel like I called myself a philosopher somewhat as a joke and years later of embodying that identity Ive come up with so many useful lifestyle and mentality hacks that improved my perception of reality immensely lol
even if its wrong, if you have trouble emotionally regulating after reading troubling information online practice these positive affirmations
"its just an ai deepfake"
"this is engagement farming"
"both the OP and everyone replying to it are all bot accounts run by the same ppl"
I think mental illness would be a lot less severe in the modern era if we hadnt forgotten the ancient wisdom that actively disliking something actually gives it more presence in your life. Tfw alcoholics in therapy could teach a thing or 2 to internet addicts.
I use a WASD hitbox for 2XKO and for both 7 and 9 jump cancels I hit them with index middle. 7 ends up feeling weird but it way more consistently avoids neutral jump misclicks cause index-ring "chording" is in my fucking rhythm game blood. Middle-ring not as much
