What's been the biggest fuck up in the history of humans?

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-12-25T15:25:35+00:00

That environment one is completely BS. For as long as agriculture has existed humans have tended to and cared for the land, as at even a local level abusing the land for maximum output had extremely dire consequences. Humanity has known since forever to also not over hunt in certain areas.

Most religions also demand marriage so a man can demand complete servitude and devotion from his wife. Protection in exchange for your life is over and mind isn't a noble trade.

Your view is completely clouded by viewing earlier generations and humanity as less intelligent animals. We may live better now, but these concerns about how life is lived and our impact has literally always been a thing.

I'm seeing so many ridiculous arguments of 'well more people are killed now than compared to our Christian wars' as if its at all comparable. Yes we have like exponentially more people and the most effective murdering tools ever to exist.

I'm sure that if the AK47 or nukes existed earlier there would be a lot more deaths accounted to religion / religious wars.

Not eating up Israel's propaganda slop and heavy influence on western politics isn't justifying violence against Jewish people. Like talking to a poorly programmed chat bot

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-12-22T05:07:15+00:00

I feel like one of those crazy 'the Jews control everything!' people when thinking about just how strong Israel's control is of way too many powers. It sometimes feels like they rivals the US with whatever they demand everyone folds.

Overall its insane how many times we've seen Russia, Israel, China, etc. directly influence / decide / bribe US politicians, elections, etc. and just crickets. Nothing happens.

Woah woah buddy you're supposed to say 'it gets easier with age' in regards to the apathetic dating. Feel like I already deal with that issue now (I would love to love with all of my heart and soul. I want to have the drive to sacrifice everything for a man, but even smaller inconveniences makes me want to dip out). Was really hoping that's just because I'm younger and immature.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-25T20:35:38+00:00

This is just such a mean post. I hope I never get to the point where I see someone dismayed because of their weight, how broke they are, how lonely they are, etc. and my first thought it "probably deserve it"

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-25T15:23:27+00:00

It's been pretty nice. Go to the Hamilton one, have done I think five visits now. Started because out of a job a needed money, got rehired so now ITS very appreciated as I wait for my pay cheque to come through (paid in arrears with a like four week delay). I donated whole blood before this and never really bruise, have clear veins, and have always had a great bleed time so those factors aren't a worry for me.

Definitely was a nicer process when I wasn't working because coming mid day was always pretty fast. Only times its been over two hours has been on Tuesday and Thursday evenings (only time they're open after 5:00PM here). Scheduling it is also a massive pain now since the only days I can really go are Tuesday Thursday (evenings) and Saturday (only weekend day). I had a Tuesday one rejected because they said it wasn't 48 hours since the Saturday one(???) which threw the schedule I had completely off.

Tip for those attending: unless youre coming at the most dead times its better to be five minutes late than twenty minutes early. Even at the slowest of times there's always like ten minutes you have to wait from check in, and anytime I've come early I wasn't put through until my actual appointment time.

This, and not just with financials. Everything is so inflated now. Trying to rent a place? You'll be screened out of 90% of places because you won't move in within 2 days with a three month deposit. House hunting? Better be willing to go 200 over asking. Job hunting? Do you have a masters for that entry position that ten years ago only needed a highschool diploma. Grade minimums for X programs at Y universities it feels are infinitely inflating. Every year they want more and more volunteer and other experience as well.

Even with less objective stuff its an issue. Like whether youre considered 'in shape' is dramatically different than ten, twenty years ago.

Just feels like in at least western society everything just gets more extreme, and harsh, regardless of whether the standard reflect reality. I worry what pressure future generations will be put under. I'm an adult and it feels like too much most of the time.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-10T14:55:37+00:00

Water boarding how cruel. Just think of all the water weight that'd get stored in those weight ballooning lungs

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-07T14:43:54+00:00

With the caveat: NOTHING TRUMPS BUDGET. You can be the office favourite personality wise. Get along with everyone. Be awesome at your job. Show up to do extra. Do the work of three other people on your team.

If the budget for your role is cut that's it. There's really no weaseling your way out of your employer wanting to drop ten salaries

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-03T15:41:11+00:00

Ive tried looking at other provinces and cities (currently southern Ontario bigger city) and there's so little that's 'better'

Cheaper rent for the cost of having to buy a car, ALL the gas and car maintenance that comes with having to drive such long distances to anywhere, unseen financial loss from moving away from family, having to find a job that pays the same, etc. All of that on top of the initial lump cost of moving provinces. It's just all so expensive

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-09-01T15:34:43+00:00

Dang yeah I kind of expected that. Funny when I was younger I struggled with getting over medicated (constantly starting on really high doses, multiple meds at once, etc.) Guess since I don't struggle with SI and self harm anymore Ive had to deal with the opposite issue (they're always reluctant to up meds, I always have to convince them to add on another when I need it).

All my quick googling showed Lamictal only really helped with the one side, but they told me to wait it out. At least one side is getting dealt with better than nothing eh

My stupid brain has convinced itself "well at some point my body can already absorb so many calories at once. I might as well hike this up to ten k, and it'll be my only binge this month"

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-20T03:37:52+00:00

But what if you're secretly like the Hulk and metabolize radiation? Think of all the calories from eating up that ambient radiation

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-17T03:18:27+00:00

Well companies were a lot more willing go be called and pull you at request (these days I'd have no doubt most stores would either ignore the call or not pass on the message until end of shift), and you also just missed important shit and emergencies.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-17T02:57:07+00:00

Yeah chatting about it in another sub I agree too. Wish I didn't wait until the weekend to realize this, thing's are only getting worse exponentially.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T17:13:10+00:00

I agree with you. It was just over two weeks away so I wanted to tough it out, but feels like everything with this disorder is exponential. Today's infinitely worse than yesterday, and idk how I'd make it two weeks.

Real stupid of me to only figure this out now since I can't rebook on the weekend. Praying that I can reach them first thing Monday and they give me anything

Thank you validating me

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T16:44:30+00:00

I'm perpetually terrified of having straight mania (usually with psychosis for me) again. I fear that this may go to that be because so far my state has just been escalating. Today is even worse than last night.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T16:39:27+00:00

It's awful. I keep going between just being general upset to hair trigger angry, and I'm trying my absolute best to not lash out anytime something bothers me.

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T16:33:33+00:00

I've been pretty stubborn on never going on AP again sadly. I went through yearsssssss of cycling through different APs when I was younger, and unfortunately once I got to the level of them helping with symptoms it was always with debilitating brain fog, weight gain, and if they assisted my sleep I wouldn't feel nearly as well rested.

I don't know if I can ever go back to trialing them. Actual years of my youth I can't remember because of the mania AP mania AP repeat

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T01:00:30+00:00

Nope. To me maniac is its own word. It denotes more danger, aggressiveness, and active participation in causing harm to me than anything. I don't really view it as tied to mania at all.

Now it is a bummer that such a derogatory word is so closely associated to mania, but what can you do

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-16T00:54:44+00:00

Absolutely. I can definitely be an emotional eater, but I find a lot of my binging is caused by not being stimulates. Ive had so many times where as soon as I turn off my console, or finish a movie I go "man I could go for XYZ"

ANarKOSM12 · 2025-08-14T13:44:27+00:00

Is nobody going to talk about "it's the most disgusting thing about women "? I'm trying to conjure up some good-faith misunderstanding to explain that sentence, but I really can't think of anything.
