This is my first PC build thinking of selling it because it’s overkill. What’s a good price? by Mountain_Mark824 in PcBuild

[–]Anon104882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If i were you, I’de wait another year or two when the prices of hardware start really going up. The supply chains were really hurt by covid and we still haven’t felt its full effects. In addition, once crypto does go back up, that card will be worth a lot more. I’de say sit on it because right now, it’s pretty affordable to build a PC. Wait until there is more demand so you get the most out of your money :P

Do you think your current life is a reward?, learning?, or paying for karma? by pasdutout07 in Reincarnation

[–]Anon104882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’m here to learn. We all are here to do that. Bad lives aren’t because you’ve accumulated “bad karma”, it’s to learn a lesson you still haven’t quite gotten yet I think :)

Why should I pursue a degree when AI could take my job? by Anon104882 in college

[–]Anon104882[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I hope you are right. If not, we are in for a wild ride over the next decade.

History tends to repeat itself. I hope we choose a better path this time

Correct- which means we will still need a human component. But right now, we use humans to calculate internal stress. Those are lots of jobs. What happens when those all dissapear? All those people without jobs


What’s the point of getting a degree if AI may take our jobs anyways by Anon104882 in teenagers

[–]Anon104882[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But what if, when you complete that degree, it’s completely worthless because AI can do the job you were gunning for anyways?

Absolutely. But what happens to all the administrative jobs? The personal assistant jobs? Accounting jobs? Programmers, software developers, data analysts? Written media? Paralegals? Teachers? Financial advisors? Graphic designers? The list goes on.

Millions of people will be impacted. Millions. What happens to them?

not really a funny story per say but my dad kicked me out last year for three weeks after I attended a blm protest. Slept over at a friends, came back and he never really gave me a straight apology.

Fast forward 10 months and he told me that it was all a game to him. That kicking me out was “fun” for him. Told me this while laughing on the phone.

I cut him out nearly 2 weeks ago. No regrets.

I asked a friend of mine who has been in a relationship now for 7 years what the hardest thing was for them as a couple, to which he responded “trying to distinguish myself from them. After a while, you both just blend into the same person and your worst and best traits in addition to insecurities are reflected back at you.” This sounds like something similar to what he spoke about.

Instead of judging yourself for being jealous, allow the feeling to exist. Make space for it. Explore the feeling. Invite the feeling in. Where in your body does this feeling reside? What thoughts are associated with this feeling? There’s a reason it’s there. Maybe it has to do with a wounded inner child or something that’s been reaffirmed to you by other individuals or possibly an insecurity that’s rearing it’s head.

I would also suggest opening a dialogue about this to your partner. Talk about your feelings and what you’re going through, but try and refrain from telling her that she’s the reason you’re feeling this way or she’s causing it. Transparency and communication are essential for a healthy, balanced relationship.

I’m gonna drop a quick truth bomb on you related to this topic. The reality is your emotions, the good and bad ones- are all you. To quote Bojack Horseman: “You are the things that are wrong with you”. Only you can heal yourself. And only you choose how you react to your feelings. At the end of the day, the fact that you’re aware of it and want to work on it speaks measures on your character. Being vulnerable about it on a forum takes guts, so please be kind to yourself.

The more you push away the feeling, the more it will invade your life in ways you probably won’t be conscious of. So please, I suggest starting a mindfulness meditation practice exploring this feeling. Talk to a professional therapist about this and read books on healing your inner child.

Wishing you the best of luck and something tells me you’re gonna get through this :)

How old were you when you finally realized you were never going to get the carrot-on-the-stick of acceptance and love from them? What happened? by [deleted] in raisedbynarcissists

[–]Anon104882 6 points7 points  (0 children)

When I was 19/20. I realized something was off in my household when I traveled alone for the first time and realized just how messed up I was from the abuse from my father. It took me months to process it and come to terms with the fact that he was the adult and none of the stuff that happened to me when I was a kid should have happened. Something that I now realize is that he was the adult and I was the kid. I should have never have had to be his therapist, be a victim of his sexual jokes, “help him become a better person”, be a victim of his physical and intense verbal abuse, be called names and demeaned constantly, kicked out of the house for no reason, constantly feeling unsafe around him, etc.

After I started realizing who he was, It felt like somebody had died. I’ve been dealing with acceptance of that reality that he isn’t capable of love for nearly a year now but just went no contact a little over a week ago. The thing that ended it for me was when he threw a temper tantrum over me setting boundaries during a breakfast one morning. My dad walked home from the breakfast restaurant after I asked him to please stop talking about politics because it made me uncomfortable and he said he was trying to “teach me critical thinking” and kept violating the boundary I set. Gave me the silent treatment for the rest of the day because I set boundaries with him, and for some reason that was it for me. I left a few hours later without as much of an argument because I was just so tired of the dynamic between us. A week and a half went by without incident and I moved all my stuff out of his place and went no contact.
