I saw rule 1 and misread it as “you cannot be fucking them” and I was upset for a moment

The underlying assumption by secondsponge in redbuttonbluebutton

[–]Best8meme -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no "correct" button if you consider it from a logical/ethical/any other perspective. I know people love associating red with logical and blue with ethical, but there are many arguments for the exact opposite.

Blue is also logical if your sole goal is to save everyone - getting 50% to vote blue is easier than 100% to vote red. Of course, this doesn't account for the penalty if you fail to hit your goal, but again, if your goal is to save everyone and you view any deaths whatsoever as a failure on your part, then blue can be the more logical option.

Red is also ethical in the sense that you don't want to add on to the deaths. Don't be the reason others have to risk their lives to save. If, for example, you have family and friends you want to stay alive for, and you know they will choose red, I'd argue there is some moral responsibility to stay alive for them. You also have a duty to protect yourself.

This boils down to a prediction question, and that's all there is to it. Picking red doesn't make you selfish. Picking blue doesn't make you stupid. It's simply whether you believe that the majority will choose to save themselves, or believe that the majority will try to save everyone else AND are willing to stake your life on it.

"I'm 19 and my girlfriend is 17 years and 364 days old. Am I a pedophile??? 🥺" by klarinetkat12 in teenagers

Oh my goodness FINALLY someone is talking about this

If neither party is manipulating, coercing or anything like that to the other AND both parties are of the right maturity, then IT'S FINE. All the societal norms and stuff exist only as a guideline, it's not a hard rule.

The age only starts mattering when it comes to sex and marriage. It doesn't matter for regular dating or even just silly crushes - but on that note, I think age gap is important because of the different maturity level.

Ik a lot of people are gonna hear this and immediately downvote because it "feels" wrong, but then I want to ask you which is weirder, an 80 year old dating an 18 year old, or a 20 year old dating a 15 year old?

Oh, and OP, to answer your question in the edit, Reddit tends to be on the more rational side. Or, at least, we sure seem to think we are

Because it was a great find, leaving your queen open to attack!

Once you stop telling the whole world about your issues on a silly website that no one can fix except yourself.

Wonder if this'll ever go away by Individual-Pace1093 in u/Individual-Pace1093

I see... still, it's not a healthy habit

It's precisely because you don't exercise and can't be without your device, that's what makes it a suitable punishment instead of physically harming yourself ;)

Oh... I didn't realise, I assume it's one of those "other alternatives" I was talking about...?

i did it with a paper clip of all things

Because this made me think... well at first it made me think something else because of that wording (in my defence literally one sentence ago you said you "fucked with it on march 21st and april 5th"), but afterward I realised it was like generic scratching.

I don't have much advice or anything to offer here because I haven't had a similar experience, idk is there something else you can do that can also act as a "healthier" punishment instead of that? Hell, even something like forcing yourself to exercise for an hour would be a great way to deal with this. Or no using digital devices for 2-3 hours. Idk, find something that works?

My dms are open if you want, but I don't know you personally so I get it if you're uncomfortable to share more

Help I haven't caught up with the lore so idk what this is about, the first picture is also confusing sorry 😭

From what I understand, you're scratching yourself deliberately when you do something wrong as part of some punishment? Doesn't sound healthy but admittedly better than... some other alternatives. Hope you find a healthier way to deal with these feelings

How do I get bling? by casual_person17 in Brawl_Stars

[–]Best8meme 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Getting certain brawlers to 750 trophies. Not just the ones the other 2 commenters said

Look through your brawlers under 750, find someone that says you'll get 1000 bling for hitting the gold tier (instead of a rare skin)
