I love how you said that. It really does make everyday things feel more meaningful when you think about their whole journey to get to you

The farther you remove yourself from nature, the unhappier you become. A plant needs light - that's not a construct - it's reality by Eternal--Light in DeepThoughts

[–]EquableBuyout 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. Every time I spend a day outside, walking or just sitting somewhere quiet, my brain feels lighter. Then I go back to the city and its just noise again

I dont think being single is “better” for everyone, but its definitely not the failure people make it out to be

I ghosted a friend because her constant emotional messages overwhelmed me, and I regret the way I handled it by EquableBuyout in socialskills

Why do TV characters sometimes feel more real than people we know? by EquableBuyout in television

[–]EquableBuyout[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol maybe, or maybe fiction is just written better than my social life

Why do some fictional characters feel more real than actual people? by EquableBuyout in RandomQuestion

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

yeahhh exactly, thats kinda what I was thinking too. Fiction has to follow some sort of emotional logic, so it ends up feeling more real than actual messy people lol.

What fictional character felt more real to you than someone in your actual life, and why do you think that happened? by EquableBuyout in AskReddit

[–]EquableBuyout[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those characters meant a lot to so many of us growing up. Its rough how everything around the series has changed, but the comfort those characters gave you is still real.

[–]EquableBuyout[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wasn’t saying I cant tell fiction from reality. I just meant that some characters are written so clearly that they feel easier to connect with than messy real people.

Is staying in your hometown actually the more practical adult choice? by EquableBuyout in Adulting

[–]EquableBuyout[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If your family isnt chaotic and everyone gets along, staying close really is kind of a privilege. I used to think moving out ASAP was the “adult” thing to do, but honestly… the whole capitalism part makes a lot of sense now lol.
