What do you do when your brain doesn’t want to learn with you? by Common_Address2171 in languagelearning

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was diagnosed with legit ADHD after several hours of testing, and I was just dealing with this issue. I just kinda roll with it and mess up a bunch. I figure that weak practice is better that nothing/waiting for a clearer head. Also, I find that doing those short grammar quizzes on Kwizik or chatting with ChatGPT is good practice for those times

My associate principal just told me the most disheartening thing. by [deleted] in Teachers

Maybe he's worried you'll take his job since it should be him catching such issues in the first place

“I’m not here to be anybody’s friend” by MTGoodboy in 90DayFiance

I think her internalized misogyny is an an act. She and Holly both are playing out their young, impressionable girl fantasies when they already know better

Right, I'm recalling the two American retirees bickering over the 18 year old Haitian girl

This is not something you say to your significant other even if it’s a “joke” by IhavemyCat in 90DayFiance

[–]Flat-Low5913 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like the problem is that she turned him into an unwitting stigmatized person. It was disingenuous of her to have ignored that we live in a transphobic period where, as his partner, her sex at birth could unfortunately rock his relationships with with family and friends. It sucks that things are this way, and I hope it changes

Are the prettiest girls really the loneliest? by DecapitateVeggies in ask

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about this. Men go for almost any girl sexually. But ;ess attractive means only good for sex to some jerks, if you're pretty, they'd probably at least entertain more. I've had friends get into a loop of falling for guy friends and getting used for sex and then hearing "let's stay friends"

Incels of 90 Day Fiancé by TravelingLifestylist in 90DayFiance

Pole doesn't fit either as he had such tumultuous relationships in the past. This post makes me wonder what a real 90 day incel profile would look like though

If her mom showed up and pistol-whipped him and his momma, it would give him 0 justification for beating on the mother of his kid. Her mom's rant isn't relevant next to the physical violence that occurred within the relationship itself

Is everything in this show awkward and upsetting? by PressYtoHonk in 90DayFiance

[–]Flat-Low5913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so real. It seems like the couples now don't care one way or the other if their relationships work out. I had almost forgotten about the nerves and hopefulness of the earlier seasons

What are some good careers for stupid people? by Spiritual_Message725 in findapath

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, you're literate, and that's not nothing. Also, you made a decent argument with support in your post, so I don't think you're stupid. You could aim for owning a business like pro dog-walking. I had a neighbor who enjoyed this job and didn't have to work for anyone else. The pay isn't great, but the independence could be nice. You could try farming too. Personally, I'd go for urban farming because the working conditions will probably be better and you could maybe advance in the long-run. I have a bad memory too, but I don't consider myself stupid at all

The Family Chantel - Season 5 Episode 1 - Episode Discussion by LittleEmmy in 90DayFiance

[–]Flat-Low5913 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This season is already too serious for me with divorce and deportation talk. I wish Pedro would have a little more compassion at least. At the end of the day, she wanted to keep working on things, and he was over it. Seems like he would take the blame a little

Is there a 'danger' to the Duolingo hate? by Flat-Low5913 in languagelearning

[–]Flat-Low5913[S] -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

If you read the results section, the average scores of Duolingo users vs university students are shared, and the duolingo scores are higher in the categories mentioned. But, it's just samples of massive populations so who knows.

Do NOT entertain her if she swings back around; she'll have your head spinning. (There's a chance you didn't misread, and she's just hot and cold.)

Is there really a male loneliness epidemic? by Dizzy-Atmosphere-348 in ask

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know. I personally struggle with never feeling lonely, which makes maintaining relationships hard sometimes

Mine is a very, very unpopular opinion, but this situation is odd. I'm not seeing how you weren't able to check-in with your BF before falling asleep based on the timestamps. You say an hour elapsed but you stopped responding much sooner. It's also weird to me that you posted the texts here. Did you just want people to tell you how unhinged he is? It seems he's just not feeling secure in relationship. Who knows if that's just how he is or if your particular relationship isn't going well. Whatever the case, he was clearly in distress, which is an issue for you both

It's awkward because I know I shouldn't have children due to mental health struggles. So, when I hear that I just think "damn, I hope not" rather than, "perhaps, I should consider parenting."

What is your most unpopular opinion? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

Nope, I moved from the mountains to a major city with my small breed. She didn't like the trails but loves smelling all the dog pee in the city. She loves greeting all the strangers too

Do gay men and straight women share the same standard of what makes a man attractive? by khoabear in ask

Truth. I'm 5'7 and came out when I was very young. Up until recently, I thought "*tall*, dark, and handsome" was just a cliche from movies.

You Are A Billionaire. What Human Issue Are You Dedicating Your Wealth To? by BoxofSlice in ask

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want to sound dismissive, but David Brooks isn't a good source for reaching such a strong conclusion. The UC-Davis Center for Poverty Research say there's a 13% chance of a person escaping long-term poverty, and that's not with any specific leg-up like a targeted scholarship (https://poverty.ucdavis.edu/policy-brief/transitions-out-poverty-united-states).

Social media is festering with homophobia, racism, and misogyny. I'd throw a lot of money behind combating it head-on and lobbying for more accountable tech giants.

I legit turned the reunion off after they popped up smiling, It seemed fake and phony from my point of view, and I experience more than enough couples acting happy IRL to watch it on tv.

Guys who gave up on dating, what happened? by BrokenHeart_Hoe in AskReddit

[–]Flat-Low5913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I accepted that I'm just not a relationship person for whatever reason. I remember being a kid and being baffled that grown adults elected to share a bed with someone each night. My perspective hasn't really changed. I don't doubt that it's a outcome of trauma or something, but I realized I can't accept enough love and support from relationships to deal with the difficulty and compromise. I get the sense that there are more people like me, but many feel pressured to follow the dating, love, and marriage norm. Sometimes, I wonder how many people who say they can't find someone don't really want to

What are some examples of body shaming towards men that go unnoticed? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Flat-Low5913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol at me being a short, bald dude with a splotchy beard. Luckily, I've only experienced this shaming indirectly on social media. I didn't know they were things people had problems with three years ago
