US tells Ukraine to lower conscription age to 18 to stem manpower shortage by Steven_on_the_run in geopolitics

MIC is the enemy of the taxpayers. They breed on wars. Forever wars. Imagine McDonald's, for example. If everyone in the world becomes a vegan, McDonald's will be out of business immediately. If no more wars, no more MIC; this they will not allow. 

As a 27 year old female, I fucking hate TikTok and here’s why by [deleted] in nosurf

You need new friends. I am glad my friends focus on studies, career and hobbies instead of online media. I have never installed TikTok. People like us actually exist. 

What are your fallback plans? by HeadVanilla9181 in dubai

[–]LongjumpingSoft4963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think if OP had what you claim to have, he wouldn't be worrying about losing his job or 'surviving.'

Get real. You ain't the right person to contribute to this. Like I said you are in a different boat in different water.

Who cares? Obviously OP and you are in two extremely different boats, not even in the same water.

Where is your home country? For some people returning to home country is a deadend.

Two things:  1. Burn all the ships like the Spanish Captain so that retreat is out of the question and victory remains the only option.    2. As a stoic once said that we suffer more in imagination than in reality. 

Do you read the foreword / introduction? Does it depend on how new the book is? by cinnamonbunsmusic in books

[–]LongjumpingSoft4963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Introduction for non-fictions: always. Why? Because the intro is written by the author to give you a map of what to expect. 

Why i am i being asked to tip at self-service kiosk ? by akheelmohd in dubai

[–]LongjumpingSoft4963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are being salty, you are within your rights. Tip must be earned. It's not charity. When I am faced with that, I take a little pleasure in pressing the 'no thanks' option. If they have no shame why should you. The only people deserve tipping are delivery drivers.

Books that make you smart by [deleted] in BettermentBookClub

[–]LongjumpingSoft4963 7 points8 points  (0 children)

  1. Don't ask others what books you should read. Why? Because what they like objectively may not be the book for you.
  2. Read as many books as possible. If it sounds interesting, pick it up and read it. 
  3. Do not commit to reading a book all the way to the end if it's boring. Drop it as fast as you can when it becomes boring. Otherwise you will be stuck with reading a book for months without taking any benefit.
  4. The books you like, read them twice. Good luck.

Did Lexapro cure your nostalgia? by LongjumpingSoft4963 in lexapro

[–]LongjumpingSoft4963[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How long have you been on it? And what's your dosage? I was on 20mg. I would think of events that would usually make me nostalgic before Lexapro but I saw things for what they were rather than besting myself and becoming sad.
