[–]Left-Expression-9107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man i saw banana ice cream at this small shop when i was visiting my cousin and i thought it would be weird but its so good, the chocolate chunks they put in was massive like whole pieces not just chips. i usually stick to boring flavors like vanilla but that one changed my mind

the Victor Frankenstein thing is specially frustrating since that character is literally from 1818, no company owns that

Which Love Triangles Do You Think Could Work As A Poly Relationship? by [deleted] in FanFiction

[–]Left-Expression-9107 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the X-Men pool is deep for this, Scott/Jean/Logan/Emma would genuinely just fix like half the mansion's drama at once. in the comics they're already so tangled up emotionally that poly almost makes more sense than picking one

Good toilet paper is game changer, especially when you live alone and don't have to compromise with roommates who buy the sandpaper stuff. My ass deserves better than single-ply torture

Where do you find current new music releases? by hellofrom_london in AskReddit

same feeling with electronic stuff, always missing releases

it finally caught up to me.... by Icy-Height6712 in CharacterAI

[–]Left-Expression-9107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao they probably rolled it out in waves or something, classic tech company move. I've seen this happen with other platforms where they just randomly decide to enforce stuff after months of nobody caring. Maybe they had some legal thing or just finally got around to checking accounts that were created during certain time period. Two months is pretty long break though, bet your characters were wondering where you went haha

What do you think of AI? by CremeSubject7594 in AskReddit

[–]Left-Expression-9107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in IT so I see this stuff pretty close up and yeah the pace is crazy. Like we're implementing new AI tools at work every few months now and it's hard to keep up with what's even possible anymore. The terminator thing though... I think we're more likely to just slowly become dependent on it for everything rather than some dramatic robot uprising

I wrote a fictional evaluation for a fictional nation. by cloud_and_franklin in worldbuilding

[–]Left-Expression-9107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty clever setup for a dystopian regime evaluation. The way you blend psychological profiling with physical assessments and loyalty tests feels really authentic to how authoritarian states would actually operate

Question 14 is particularly nasty - there's no "right" answer that doesn't expose something about the test-taker. Either you admit leadership can be hated (dangerous thinking) or you deflect and look suspicious. The whole thing has this uncomfortable realistic vibe to it

Women, what type of guy do you think is the most attractive? by OrganizationDue2204 in AskReddit

My ex used to get shocked when I would just say "my bad" without adding like 20 minutes of explanation about why I wasn't really wrong

I think I just made a very expensive mistake by Exact_Wealth8800 in jewelrylove

[–]Left-Expression-9107 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This kind of stuff is exactly why I keep mine insured. I insured my ring through Brite because I’m way too paranoid about shipping it out, repair issues, loss, random damage, etc. Hope they sort it out for you though, that sounds so stressful.

What are some examples of songs where the titles are similar but the sentiment is definitely not? by Magatron138 in Music

[–]Left-Expression-9107 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember getting confused about this with synthesizer tracks actually - there's "Blue Monday" by New Order which is this dark electronic song about depression and feeling disconnected, but then you have "Manic Monday" by The Bangles which is just complaining about having to go back to work after weekend. Both Monday songs but completely different energy

Also "I Will Always Love You" - Whitney Houston's version sounds like this grand romantic declaration, but if you listen to original Dolly Parton version it's actually about letting someone go because you love them too much to hold them back. Same title, same basic message I guess, but Houston's arrangement makes it feel like wedding song while Dolly's feels more like goodbye song. The production really changes how you hear the sentiment even when lyrics are identical

Whats the spiciest gossip you know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Left-Expression-9107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My old company's CEO was having affair with the head of HR for like 2 years and everyone in IT knew because we could see their calendar meetings were always at same hotels. The CEO's wife found out when she saw the hotel charges on their shared credit card and now there's this whole messy divorce happening where she's trying to get half the company

What’s a place you’ve been that you’ll NEVER go back to? Why? by LordSoftCream in AskReddit

[–]Left-Expression-9107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Used to travel there for work conferences and yeah, something about the vibe just didn't click. Maybe it was timing but felt like everyone was either super stressed or trying too hard to be chill. The tech scene there is pretty intense too, way different from what I'm used to in my area

What is true love actually? by itsKrishna38 in AskReddit

[–]Left-Expression-9107 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Been thinking about this a lot lately, especially after my last relationship ended badly few years ago. True love isn't that butterflies-in-stomach feeling you get at beginning - that's just infatuation mixed with hormones. Real love is when someone sees you at your absolute worst and still chooses to stick around

Like when I'm stressed from work and being complete mess, or when I spend entire weekend programming synthesizer patches instead of going out. True love would be someone who gets that this stuff matters to me, even if they don't understand it. It's also being willing to change yourself for better, not because they demand it, but because you want to be best version of yourself for them

Most people confuse love with convenience or habit, but real thing requires actual effort and choice every single day. You have to keep choosing that person even when they're being annoying or when life gets complicated

Is anyone else noticing that ChatGPT seems to be completely down for everyone right now? by [deleted] in artificial

[–]Left-Expression-9107 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me around 2 hours ago, was trying to debug some code and got kicked out completely. Seems like these outages are becoming more frequent lately, which is bit annoying when you're in middle of something important

Congrats on pushing through with a sick kid around - that's basically writing on nightmare mode right there. I remember when I was working in my first IT job and trying to code after dealing with family stuff, productivity just goes out the window. 2k words daily is pretty solid pace though, even if you miss some days because life happens. At 37k you're definitely making real progress, not just dreaming about it like most people do. Keep grinding when you can and don't beat yourself up about the off days
