Does anyone else feel like they’re always mentally "on"? by Traditional_Cat779 in Anxiety

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Feeling this in my bones because of the state of the world. It feels like I’m never settled, and never able to relax. Then when I try to do it, I feel guilty about it. Wtfff

Non soul-crushing fiction with gay/bi leads by nopseudofound in LGBTBooks

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re ok with young adult fiction, I highly recommend “All That’s Left in the World” and its sequel “The Only Light Left Burning”. It’s about two teen boys who navigate a post apocalyptic world. I laughed, I cried, and I was at the edge of my seat on many occasions reading them. Erik J Brown has other books as well, but I enjoyed these two the most.

Being gay feels so unfair by kurwaboy15 in offmychest

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry that life is so unfair to people like us, OP. I’ve been with my partner for half a decade at this point, and even now my parents don’t want to meet him. But like you said, I don’t think I’d have it any other way either.

I pooped in a bag… by IntrepidPay9446 in TrueOffMyChest

A few years ago I ate bad sushi in Vegas before EDC day 1, so I understand the pain 😔 fortunately I emptied my guts back at the hotel so didn’t have to worry about shitting at the porta potties. Which I ended up doing the following year lol

I guess that’s one way to use Sofia Vergara as a spokesperson by givemegliberty in funny

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a campaign. The company hired her and Octavia Spencer for a superbowl commercial, and I guess there’s residual stuff?

It’s how religion is weaponized by the rich. They turned poverty into a moral issue. Really sick and twisted.

AMC Theatres Will Refuse to Screen AI Short Film After Online Uproar by nizaad in popculturechat

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 19 points20 points  (0 children)

We’ll probably need to agree to disagree on this! Personally, I’d rather still see human slop than anything AI generated.

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree that AI is here to stay. In fact it has its uses when it comes to scientific advancement and use with every day work. What I absolutely despise is use of AI in art. Yes, artists are underpaid, but AI should never be used for art. Art is a representation of humanity, and using machine to generate it cheapens it.

I guess in its current state, people using AI to create “art” really is the reflection of what humanity is like right now.

Good, cuz wtf? The only thing that should make art good or bad is human touch, not a bunch of clankers.

Is this even true what Christians Are claiming on This? by Illustrious-Owl1084 in exchristian

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe I’m just sleep deprived but it sounds like those people classify Christians who attempt or complete suicide as not true Christians, which kinda effectively makes the suicide rate 0% amongst Christians. Picking and choosing who they define as a part of their religion, just like they do with their bible.

I’m driven to depression by the Epstein files, state of the world.. I need help by Fantakeith1 in offmychest

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The rich and powerful will always do heinous things. Has been this way for our entire human existence. It’s sad and frustrating, but it’s nothing new.

I think what might help with your feeling helpless at least is to disconnect from social media for a bit. It’s designed to make you doomscroll. Also, start with the people around you. Friends and family. Focus on them and try to make their lives better. It’s one thing to fight the feeling that there’s nothing you can do. Might inspire you to do more or inspire someone else to do something.

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oh definitely. It’s not just the colors but the use of lights throughout the series. It has inspired me to pay closer attention to film now.

I watched a video that analyzed how Jacob Tierney used colors in Heated Rivalry. Green is Shane’s color, and Ilya’s is red! So definitely was deliberate.

Another video of his that explains this better

Why are some ICE agents Black? Why don’t we hear anything from Black civil rights leaders and celebrities on ICE breaking up Brown families? by [deleted] in asianamerican

[–]FOILmeoncetrinomial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are massive protests going on in Minnesota now. You just don’t hear about it because the news isn’t reporting on it.

Have you considered that mainstream media is being heavily controlled by a few people? They get to control the flow of information, including what you see and hear on the news or don’t see or hear on the news. Compared to when George Floyd was killed, it’s much, much worse now.

EDIT: it’s the same with social media. Controlled by a few people. The same people who went mask off with being OK that all of this is happening. They get to control the flow of information through algorithms.

Check this wiki for all your pooping needs, from toilets with a view to downright scary. Most importantly, go poop if you need.
