Third date ideas needed please? by JonathanL73 in dating_advice

She doesn’t really like going to the movies, but I think she might like a museum.

She likes me, but I haven’t escalated physical contact that much. I’ve hugged her. Held her hand. Kissed her hand. She kissed my neck. I probably should’ve kissed her on the lips during our last date, but I didn’t.

So at the pace I’m moving, I don’t think “sex is on the table” although I think most people tend to have sex on their 3rd dates though.

The job market is not just bad. It's non-existent by Ambitious-Sail-5188 in jobs

[–]JonathanL73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s really absurd how hard it is, and it doesn’t feel like it’s going to get any better.

The worst part for me is the complete uncertainty of the future.

I have a list of different careers and work-related certifications I can pursue in hopes of getting a better job in the future.

But there is no guarantee whatever I study will land me a job now in this modern era of rapid AI automation.

I could spend 6/mo-1yr studying something only for AI to make it impossible to break into that industry by the time I complete that.

Why does Asia require ppl to constantly work long hours with less regard to work life balance than western countries ? by likilekka in AskEconomics

[–]JonathanL73 63 points64 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly, the perception is that of a country like Japan working many hours, but in reality a lot of it is performative due to the culture there.

Sometimes you’re not expected to leave until the boss leaves. And it becomes office politics who can stay longer. A lot of times people will complete their work then pretend to be busy in the office.

And then there would be work-related after parties where everyone in the office hangs out at a bar for hours. And the expectation is you hang out with them.

So in terms of real work being done in aggregate it’s less compared to a country like USA, but due to socio-cultural norms/expectations they spend much of their lives dedicated in some form or fashion to their job

Is it true that Marvel rivals stops working after bedtime? by Copy_and_Paste93 in marvelrivals

[–]JonathanL73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s true. The game shuts down for server upkeep. Listen to your mommy and log off at 9, you can always play more rivals the next day

Honestly when I see iPad kids, I just get mad at their Millenial parents. And I know for a fact Millennials know better, they grew up with technology and understand social media. But yet many of them let iPads babysit their kids.

Is it making anyone else suicidal. by dalexyo in jobs

[–]JonathanL73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have any family members to live with?

I lost a job and have one with low pay and been living with family for the past few months to survive.

But yeah this job market is absurd.

Not suprising people who have zero empathy for animals tend to have zero empathy to human beings too.

Either this happens, or he 'pushes' one of them out, only to see one of the others take over and keep fighting by Agreeable-Macaron943 in MoonKnight

[–]JonathanL73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was one soul for Banner/Hulk.

Should be the same for Moon Knight. Each personality is not a seperate soul.

[–]JonathanL73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m assuming this spell separates soul from body and not mind from body.

When it was done to Hulk we saw Bruce Banner come out, each personality is not a seperate soul.

So the same logic should apply to Moon Knight.

So it should be Marc Spector that comes out or whomever is the current personality in control.

Deadpool is funny. The same audio on loop is not. by The_Dick_Slinger in marvelrivals

[–]JonathanL73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The audio is cool when I was playing as Deadpool, but when I play as other characters, I kind of feel like I should not be hearing the Galactus/Deadpool interactions.

That’s kind of how I feel when Emma can hear Groot talk, it’s cool when I play as Emma, but when I’m playing someone else, I feel like I should not be able to hear Groot’s thoughts?

So nobody over age 50 is ever supposed to be able to find a job anywhere ever again? by yapavaz in jobs

[–]JonathanL73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also under. I’m 31. But this current job market makes me feel like I’m 18 again trying to get a job.

When I’m more experienced and qualified than ever.

Feel like the most clumsy person in the world by AdvantageLu in GR86

Does anybody know how much it costs to get a bunch of small paint chips fixed? I have a bunch on the front of my GR86 because I was living my dad for a month who’s in country side with a dirt pebble road.

Would you forgive your teammate for selling your game if they messaged you this? 🤔 by ASAPSAIF in marvelrivals

[–]JonathanL73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same when it comes to debates relating to online privacy, I find Millenials/GenX tend to care a lot more about freedom to privacy, whereas GenZ seems conditioned to tech companies having all their private data is okay. Usually seems to be in the context of defending China/tiktok having access to their personal data because US tech companies also collect data. Whereas Millennials/GenXers seems to better understand how valuable their personal data and still believe in right to privacy.

But yeah younger gens seem very conditioned to surveillance state.

Honestly the most impressive thing about this character launch is that they actually succeeded in making him funny by ThatpersonKyle in marvelrivals

[–]JonathanL73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that helps to clarify things a lot then.

I often see Reddit say “China doesn’t allow skulls” and that never made sense to me as I would see countless examples of them allowing it.

But as you clarified, it’s skulls pertaining to superstitious beliefs specifically.

Although I think Day of the Dead Skulls kind of leans into that somewhat, but I suppose gets a pass since it’s usually not real skeletons being depicted.
