My mom lost her engagement diamond years ago and instead of replacing it with another, she got a fat ass cz 😭 her friends were none the wiser and everyone was telling her she deserved it and good for treating herself and it was such a beautiful stone
I’ve done research, and I found them, All of their other accounts have been deleted but this one still exists. It’s quite unsettling, as it’s just them holding this same pose in silence for every video
One time on a podcast appearance Kelly mantle asked what you’re supposed to do during marvel movies and the person was like “what do you mean you sit and watch it” and she said “I always feel like i’m supposed to be doing something more”

While I was in the Army, there was a period in which they were overly focused on alcohol consumption. They made us do periodic questions about alcohol use.
Upfront, let's be clear: my entire life, I've never been much of a drinker. I'm a notorious lightweight because I drink so rarely. I'm a cheapskate who doesn't like spending money and I hate the spins and hangovers.
But, I am still a fairly normal man and so I'd partake occasionally. If I am drinking at all it is either to have a 1-2 beers at a function, a single beer over a restaurant lunch/dinner, or I am drinking with intent to get blasted. There's no in between.
During my time in the Army, this translated to usually drinking 0.0 beers a week, except for the quarterly party I'd go to where I'd down 10-20 at a time.
I took a questionnaire that asked how many drinks I have a week. I answered "Approximately 0.03." They asked if I ever drank to the point of blackout. Yeah, like three times or so in my life.
That was it.
This use was enough for the Army to flag me as a 'potential alcoholic' and require me to at least get screened by a provider. I worked out the math and explained that this translates to a decimal point of beers a week, and that was enough to get me out of the process, but that was insane.
You know what is even more insane? I've encountered people who think this is appropriate. They think having drank to blackout even once in life should have someone cut back.
Somehow in a culture of rampant weed, coke, fent, meth, high risk sex, gang violence, and overall degenerate morality, we have effectively created a teetotaling culture that views a single heavy night out as a warning sign of alcoholism.
No wonder nobody drinks anymore.
I have seen sooo many Rothko pieces in my life and have not been moved by a single one :/ but the first time I saw Newman’s The Stations of the Cross I started crying so bad
you're missing the painting--which exists, not in a cartoon-like two dimensions, but in a very subtly rendered three dimensions which, obviously, you've never seen.
ask yourself why you are so hostile to an entire art movement much revered by so many, yet dare to call yourself not a hearty unapologetic philistine --one of a very large tribe--but one who aspires to something called "culture."
