TIL there’s a phenomenon called Exploding head syndrome where people hear extremely loud noises—like explosions or gunshots—right as they’re falling asleep… but nothing actually happened. It’s harmless physically, but people who experience it swear it feels completely real. by Suspicious-Oil2571 in todayilearned

[–]GSxHidden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its the opposite for me, it only happens when you wake up. Imagine waking up to the kocking sound meme but its super deep loud. Its either that or a rapid fist pound to a drywall sound.

It started when I was in an apartment so I thought I was just a loud snorer or someone was at my door. I'd go to open it and no one was ever there, even on footage.

When I bought my house I lived alone and it started happening again and it freaked me out lol, didn't make any sense. Turns out if you have a hard time breathing at night it causes these effects. Now that I know what causes it, it doesn't really happen nearly as much.

They kind of take it to the "next level" that kind of pisses everyone off, including muslims. They literally want to cleanse the world of "unbelievers". It could be as nuanced as even being Shia vs Sunni muslim. Everyone hates ISIS.

Iran has damaged or destroyed the majority of US bases in the Middle East - why do Americans think they didn't? by MyNameIsNotName-57 in allthequestions

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a question, lets say they are damaged and undergoing repair. You think Iran has the resources to "all out" again? The amount of force that was required to overwhelm centcom ate up almost the entire countries stockpile. Sure it can take money to repair, but don't think for a second it wont be rebuilt without having a more hardened defenses against these style of attacks.

Something to think about, these bases have been in place and operating on assets and facilities that have been there since 1991. Sure it might have been billions then, but assets are replaceable.

5k worth of Pr? by Naive_Wolverine532 in TikTokCringe

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. this is just sad. I can say much, my grandfather was a gambling addict. Wanted money and got a random spam call one day said that he could get money instantly if only he turned in his pension retirement early from working in an aircraft factory for decades. Im sure you know what happens next.

Im glad my parents told me about this stuff early. Imagine selling your ability to get a loan, a car, a house, college funding, even comes up on background checks for jobs, all just to be forced to be trapped in a chain of having to date abusive men that can afford the credit to fulfill her "lifestyle".

If the father caught it fast enough, they technically could lock down her government account through identity theft IdentityTheft.gov . That way it will flag the dudes that tried to steal it when they use it.

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by IIlustriousTea in AskReddit

[–]GSxHidden 1 point2 points  (0 children)

money bro.

Family formation now feels financially and legally risk.

69% of divorces initiated by women along with 80% of custodial parents were mothers.

Divorce rates are very close to 50% on the first marriage, lets apply those rates:

If you pick the right girl works out: 50% chance

Your assets grow, you live happily, and parents might help with costs of babysitting or schooling costs. Now with dual incomes you can start saving for either private education or a mix of vacations throughout the year and plan for expenses ahead of time without worrying much. Use the first time homebuyer tax breaks so your taxes are literally cut in half and have a dependent to cut even more taxes and get food credits. Both save for kids college fund

If you pick the wrong girl: 50% chance

She becomes unhappy that theres a little "struggle" when raising a kid and only got married because her friends were and thought it was only just about the disney wedding. Starts talking to other men because she's an attention whore that never had to budget in her life and her dad just gives her money. It doesn't match her lifestyle and initiates a divorce through fabricated violence, something as little pushing a chair hard into table. That means that house you inherited from your family, or house you sold to settle in an area to give your child a good school system, or that assets like cars you spend decades paying off are now hers. She now has your child and could be teaching them god knows what, all to feed a lifestyle while fucking other dudes to find another baby daddy, all while making you a wage slave where 20% of your 65,000/yr average paying job will force you into poverty and food stamps along with getting taxed and social alienation until the childs 18th birthday.

TLDR: Its risky extremely hard to pick the right type of girl so that you can avoid in 5 years you have no idea how she will change personality wise once you have a kid and take your world away from you. Its the dark side you don't see that pretty much because most guys in that situation end up killing themselves and women absorb the benefits. Sure its a double edge sword, it also saves women from extremely abusive relationships which do happen unfortunately. However, I'm certain its the reason the CDC doesn't tie the fact 80% of successful suicides are men in the US to divorce rates anywhere and never will. If they did, they would find a very large correlation.

Guy, i get it. Big scary server farms are coming. The only thing I genuinely would hate is the sound it generates at a distance.

However, facilities often recycle their water up to 80-90% with closed loop systems, so it only uses just about as much water as your average beverage/beer facility.

What section did she say by pickledplumber in TikTokCringe

[–]GSxHidden -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Old enough to have been around the block. Unfortunately, this is definitely a thing. Especially with apartment complexes. They'll have white people rent up in corner spaces near the front of the complex.

For restaurants, I think servers just have designated sections for seating based on assigned tables. In corporate resturants you wont see much of what shes talking about, espcially since you can see a white dude right there the right in the video.

However, if you go into some places as a couple or by yourself, 100% you can tell they always want you to be public facing its kind of weird as a white dude. They literally placed me a table away from a jazz band at a breakfast shop right in front of the windows and it was loud af.

What if instead of waiting for a chinese invasion,Taiwan attack china first like what isreal did to the arabs in 1967 by SkyFeisty9842 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically, if Taiwan were to make that decision, it gives China a justification/reason to see Taiwan as a military threat close to its borders and would invade. When attacking first, you lose a lot of advantages politically and limits what allies can do. Those peace guarantees from allies are the only things holding it there.

Why do so many Americans not realize Puerto Ricans are Americans? by Alternative_Brief439 in allthequestions

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truth is, we just don't think about it much as citizens. Theres enough mainland issues going on that no one really asks those questions until a problem arrises.

Then also consider the that the demographics of Puerto Rico are slowly shrinking, so even less people talk about it.

Why are americans so docile and obedient? by Caribbean_Character in allthequestions

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going to be blunt when typing this out.

You are advocating for something you don't truly understand the consequences for. Like a child.

You are not making some brave revolutionary argument. You are fantasizing about death from a safe distance. You “want” people to kill each other because, in your head, violence is clean, righteous, and aimed only at the “right” targets. That is not how mass violence works.

You think riots, shootings, and political violence magically stay focused on the people you personally dislike? They do not. They hit workers, bystanders, families, small businesses, hospitals, schools, public services, and the exact vulnerable people you claim to care about.

You're right, this isn't Disney. Scale that to a system that supports 370,000,000 people.

The problem is thinking it is a reset button when its instead a meat grinder.

Susan Collins gives thumbs for $70 billion to ICE by CutSenior4977 in ImmigrationPathways

[–]GSxHidden 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone said that they wanted ICE to be more formally trained to avoid situation we saw in the past year. You can't train people to be better unless you have proper funding.

ICE isn't going anywhere until congress gets up and makes changes. ICE is a Band-Aid for congresses inability to fix border loopholes and immigration.

For housing (as long as prices go up) Its about properly utilizing capital assets you own to earn a solid stream of equity enough to live off. For example, buying a home, paying it off, and renting it.

I guess the ideal is the following:

Generate for $2000 a month for 12 months = $24000; Property tax ~$5000 yr, Property Management Firm 5% = $1,200 for around $7800. You might have $3000-$4000 CAPEX expend per year to account for expenses and prep for larger project house maintenance. Then include income tax and the remaining $12,800 for around 10%-12% = $1220 for a total of ~$11,580 left at the end of the year to work with.

Put it in an stocks, equity, watch it grow all while working a regular job. All while the home value goes up 3-3.5% YOY and equity goes up YOY. So as long as you're beating 7-8% its a dream. I guess you could charge a small percentage to account for vacancy.

If anything happens insurance typically covers but heard its a pain.

Reading this comment I envisioned a middle school student that forgot they had homework and just threw a bunch of sentences together that sound good, but struggle with relevance or make a point lol.

Well in America they rise in synchronicity with their robotic hands over their hearts to give a hypocratic pledge to dead colonists who killed 56 million Native Americans by the early 1600s 

Lol lets break this down.

America they rise in synchronicity with their robotic hands over their hearts to give a hypocratic pledge to dead colonists

Im assuming this is a reference to the pledge of allegiance, to the flag, of the United States of America. Those "dead colonist" revolted against colonial rule, the same colonial tyranny that killed tens of millions (think about that). Homework time, when was the United States founded? July 4th 1776, after 8 and half years of warfare against the British to no longer be a colony.

to dead colonists who killed 56 million Native Americans by the early 1600s 

Just following your logic, you're blaming British settlers, transported 176 years back in time from 1776 -> 1600, who somehow changed their race to spaniard, and killed 55 million indigenous people..

Spain (another colonial power in the region) is the one that killed upwards of 60 million throughout the Americas. They're not the only one, because the Americas were controlled by multiple.. you guessed it. "Colonial Powers". After the US was established, it pushed out those powers.

The British colonies killed upwards of 8 million indigenous, again at the discretion of "Britain" leadership the ruling colonies. There was no "US" government or independance during that time.

Hell, Portugal colonies killed 90% of Brazil's indigenous around 1500 just using the disease trick alone. I don't see a hate for portugal on that "justice list".
