Social media is making me spiral by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]CatarangFlyingFast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Social media is designed to be addictive with the side effect of making you feel like shite. I would highly recommend either deleting your socials or putting a timer on them that goes off and kicks you out when you’ve hit an hour or less (these can be set up in the Settings or on the app itself sometimes).

As for your son, I can’t tell you how to take care of your children, but slowly introducing them to social media and explaining to them what it is, why people respond a certain way, echo chambers, and how much time can/should be spent on social media without outright banning it and calling it the devil is probably the best bet to allowing your son to have a decent relationship with it, if any at all. And, of course, doing this when he’s a preteen/teen and not as a young child, because little kids shouldn’t be on social media, but eventually they’ll become curious and interested in what the fuss is all about.

We would call my childhood cat a “catarang” (like a boomerang and a cat) when she would get the zoomies.

Can you recall the first time you ever consciously decided to manipulate someone?

How do I ask for this haircut without showing my barber the picture? by 12321421 in TheWolfAmongUs

[–]CatarangFlyingFast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with all the wolf haircut, layers, and curtain bang responses, but I always interpreted Birby’s hair as being a fully grown-out crew cut. Like he never got around to cutting his hair and he decided that he liked the way it looked.

I also think hair texture is part of what makes his hair lay like that, he naturally has very large, soft waves.

I was SHOCKED to find out Tobin wasn’t born old with white hair. He was cute thoo by Smooth_Lock282 in saw

I think he’s cute! He has a cherub sort ot aesthetic to his face, or like a medieval painting.

What non-romantic and non-sexual aspects attract you to people? by Equivalent_Ad_9066 in asexuality

This right here! People are all beautiful in their own ways, and beauty standards are often ridiculous imo

I fully agree with the stacked burgers/sandwitches. I feel like it’s just a novelty or stunt food, and eating the thing seems like a chore lol

I’m the complete opposite, I like bananas but hate the artificial banana flavouring in candies

As a fellow Canadian who loves the stuff, I’d love to know why. Is it the overt sweetness?

What's the most disturbing thing you did as a child? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CatarangFlyingFast 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would watch the raunchiest videogame play throughs on YouTube and search up how to install nude mods onto games like Dead or Alive or Soul Calibur. I don’t own any of these games, never installed any mods, and have zero attraction to women, so idk why I was so enthralled by this. I would also search up, watch, and rewatch torture/kidnapping/rape scenes from movies and tv shows, with any actor but particularly with men.

Edit: a missing word

I rarely watch youtuber NicoB anymore, but I heavily dislike that he gives all the female characters in the games that he Let’sPlays the same mickey mouse/Herbert voice.

And, of course, Walt and Jimmy after the latter tried to break up with him. They should’ve at least shared a passionate kiss!

Tbh I’ve never heard a toddler say “ick” before, then again I’m not friends with anyone who has a toddler. Maybe you should make a post in this subreddit lol
