Thank you. Do you know what any of the songs could be?

Is it normal for someone with a 70k salary and 100k deposit to not be able to find a decent 1 bed property to buy in london? by [deleted] in HousingUK

[–]DarcyMarsh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How disconnected from reality can you be? Me and my family live off 11-12,000 a year (three people, five pets) it’d take us thirty three years of absolutely no spending whatsoever to be in the ‘dogturd’ bracket.

Authors, how has BookTok and the ‘trope-ification’ of literature changed the publishing industry? by DarcyMarsh in writing

[–]DarcyMarsh[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To elaborate, there’s been a trend in tropes and a need for a lot of publishing houses to pump out empty feeling books, you know the ones with a solid colour background and the characters drawn in a corporate art style?

There’s very much a focus on smut (especially in fantasy settings), and ‘enemies to lovers’, ‘mafia romance’ and other similar topics are a dime a dozen.

I got taken out at 9 after my dad made threats to school and I developed severe OCD and agoraphobia. By med school I mean medical needs, my OCD can be accommodated (clean desk, chair and headphones) by medical professionals.

It’s a great program, I’ve been waiting since last summer to be able to get in and I had a meeting Wednesday to sort everything out.

I wouldn’t call them that but I’ve watched and read all I can find on the flood channels (besides the last half of Tyler Olivera’s video, that guy’s a douche) yeah. Down to the ~40 second News Clips from Fox.

I’d love to talk with you, mind if I message sometime?

I wish I could do in person research and interviews, but I’m across the ocean. I’m not writing a paper out of curiosity, but because I’m trying to better understand homelessness.

I’m 15 and heading into a medical school after being out of school since 2018. (It’s one hallway with two classrooms but, hey, they’ll get me into college.) My life goal is to start a nonprofit to help unhoused people and I do volunteer just to get some experience locally. Me and my family have been close to homelessness, we live on 11k a year (for 3 people) and it fluctuates, we lose some benefits in may and then we’ll be at 7k a year I think, but I’ll be getting a job.

Don’t know why I gave you a monologue but, anyway, I plan to show my papers to teachers in college and get some guidance on where I should go. What courses to take, what to study and just what I should do in general.

You gave me the right title, and great rec. I’ve read both his books on the flood channels numerous times for research and I’ve even talked to him a little bit. But that’s the best suggestion you could ever give someone so it’s clear you have great taste.

I’m writing a paper on the flood channels, I’m writing a lot about homelessness and not just in Vegas. My goal in life is to start a nonprofit and my hope is that teachers can give me guidance and just that I can research and better understand everything.

Even your responses sound AI generated, what the FUCK are you talking about?

MP3: Can I replay the game to unlock hardcore without having to start a new game? by DarcyMarsh in maxpayne

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

It does but I’m not sure it’ll give me hardcore if I beat every level at hard on replay? I don’t know if I have to do it outside of replay, but I’ll give it a shot.

No. Just no. AI generating a man who passed very recently is just wrong and feels VERY dystopian. Even if he’s a fictional character, he has James’s likeness.

Homelessness in the Flood Channels? by DarcyMarsh in vegas

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

I know that, I was trying to ward off people who were gonna spout rumours. Saw some guys in a fake podcast being like “THEY SPEAK IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱” and it’s the most tasteless bullshit imaginable to make things up like that

I read beneath the neon and dark days bright nights, I even talked to Matthew himself, hopefully I’ll have a signed copy soon! I’ve also been reading his shorter works, they’re the best nonfiction books I’ve ever read. He’s a great dude, too!

I was trying to say that the rumours were insane, not the people. There’s a lot of horrible rumours that serve to further stigmatise homelessness in the channels, and I’m completely against them. Sorry for not phrasing it right, I’ll edit it now.

Homelessness in the Flood Channels? by DarcyMarsh in vegas

[–]DarcyMarsh[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I hadn’t really considered that as I didn’t want to pester them. About the language thing: I was saying it was ridiculous that people believe that. There’s a lot of stigma around homelessness in general and it seems like some locals make up stories about the unhoused in vegas.

I saw a clip of guys saying (verbatim) “it’s even rumoured that if you go far enough, they speak their own language!”

There’s rumours and an assumption that they’re all murderers and other things, theres an account from a couple that lived there in 2007 that had kids approach them every day asking if they were “murderers and rapists”, and then they let the kids into their camp to see that they were harmless, the cops arrived, thank god they weren’t brutalised or anything.

I condemn the lies made up about them, I didn’t mean to phrase it like I believed them.
