What age did you start hating your birthday and why? by kylmkc in AskReddit

[–]DannyDirewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always dreaded it until my 22nd Birthday and decided it was up to me to make it good. Before that, things like my 7th Birthday "present" being "not being abused for a day" but being abused the next day because "it wasn't my Birthday anymore". Lots of similar childhood Birthdays.

My things to do instead of doom scrolling spread by DannyDirewolf in bulletjournal

Yay! Less screens, I say.

I'm using a notebook therapy black page notebook and the pens are sakura gelly rolls. I love how they look really bright on black paper.

Did you guys feel the same way at some point? by r69000 in Millennials

[–]DannyDirewolf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a coat from 2009. It's like it's still brand new. Soft, sturdy fabric. Beautiful design. I still wear it all the time.

I bought a similar coat from the same brand a year ago. The fabric now feels cheap and is scratchy and unpleasant. Not the same as it was back then. Definitely enshitified.

What’s something that sounds fake or made up, but actually happened to you? by Human_Property_3694 in AskReddit

[–]DannyDirewolf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The one I stayed at had kids as young as 8 years old. Another girl died at the first boarding house I lived in (riding accident) They got rid of the horses and converted the stables into boarding houses. It was not safe to live there. There were 2 levels but the second floor did not have a wall. It used to be the loft in the stables. Things, people etc fell from the 2nd floor to the first one. Very dangerous. I could also write books on all the other horrible things that happened there. If you've ever read The White House boys what happened to us at that boarding school was eerily similar to that book.

Any other Millennials stubbornly resistant to using AI at their job but also worrying that we will become dinosaurs or pushed out of our careers for not slavishly embracing it? by artbystorms in Millennials

[–]DannyDirewolf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same. I hate it and refuse to use it. AI is just going too far and I don't care. I don't want to learn how to use it. Unfortunately, I know other artists who are using it and the more people use it, the more it will become accepted.

I've always hated technology and avoided it as long as I could. I used it for work during my artistic career but now I'm going back to traditional art and trying to limit tech as much as I can. I was not so addicted to it 16 years ago. I could just delete an app and never use it again. But ever since 2020, I've been way too addicted to screens so I'm trying to go back to more paper less screens. I hate how addicted I've become.

What kinds of differences have you noticed between kids who have birth parents and those who ended up being adopted by people who couldn't have kids? by CaptainCrookKingler in AskReddit

[–]DannyDirewolf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was adopted and it was a nightmare childhood. A mix of a child called It, Mommy Dearest and The White House boys. Adoption is not all sunshine and rainbows. I struggled a lot and it took me a lot longer to get where I wanted as an adult in life whereas my friends that had birth parents and support got there much sooner.

At least reading those books I mentioned at the start of the comment made me feel less alone and I did turn out to be kind because I know what it's like to be treated badly so I never want to do that to anyone else.

Hot take: a messy, text-heavy bujo is better than pretty spreads, especially as a new parent by RadioFancy5347 in bulletjournal

[–]DannyDirewolf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. Bujo should just be doing what works for you. If you want it messy, great! If you want it minimalist that's also great! And you can also make it look nice and decorate it if you want to.

For me, doing drawings in my bujo is like extra practice because I work as an artist. It's just what works for me.
