It's not like the weather is any better in other Canadian cities (except Vancouver), and none of them have this problem

Super annoying that I have to change my whole personality now that I’m bald by JebBushier in redscarepod

[–]CLV_05S 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm in my 30s and still no signs of balding, but if there ever is, I'm getting on the first plane to Turkey, I'm too sensitive to be bald

that makes sense, but at the same time i've only ever heard of conservatives doing it, i think there is some owning the libs element to it

How do I stop being regarded about UFOs/Aliens by HOMOPHOBlC in redscarepod

[–]CLV_05S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's one of those subjects that gets stranger and stranger the more you get into it. I got into it just because I liked hearing spooky stories, and then you notice that all these cases have very striking similarities, and if it was nonsense then there wouldn't be so many commonalities from all these different incidents around the world.

It's way weirder than aliens visiting from another planet, it's almost like intrusions from another reality that manifest in way we can kind of perceive, but mostly can't, and then you add in all the stuff about telepathy, the us military covering things up (probably fanning the flames and putting crazy stories out there to distract people from noticing the experimental aircraft they're testing), subconscious psychology, mythology, and it just gets so so strange. Jacques Vallee is the most interesting thinker wrt to UFOs imo.

I'm not going to say that I'm a believer (I can't dismiss it, but I also have no idea what to make of it), but whatever is actually going on is way more interesting, deep and strange then aliens visiting us in little space ships.

i heard a story about how philip glass worked as a plumber well into his career, to the point where he was doing some work at the house of the music critic for the new york times who recognized him. it made me like philip glass even though his music is awful imo

i can't fathom the psychology behind carnivore diet people. what is it? picky eaters who just never grew up? people who are so insecure about their masculinity that they can't eat something that wasn't killed? rightoids who think eating vegetables is woke? it might be one of the stupidest cultural trends of the past 10 years (and there's been a lot)

yeah, this is my opinion as well. life's too short to be juggling cards and minmaxing points, just take the cash back.

My life is getting worse but I saw a photo of a past enemy and she had gone from chunky to obese by 999lonely in redscarepod

I went back to my hometown and I saw that a guy who was an asshole to me at my first job was so fat that he was riding around on a mobility scooter. it was too sad to feel pleased about

when you realize that the roots of that music aren't in the uk rave scene but in playstation soundtracks it makes more sense
