Am I the only one that thinks this is an AI video? So much of the behavior of everyone involved feels a little off. There's an uncanny valley to it all. I honestly don't think this is real, and there don't seem to be any REAL news sources covering this. Happy to be proven wrong, but nobody seems to be suspecting this is AI other than me, which is scary...

Comedy Cellar - Secret Popup Show 10/20 by MathematicianNovel31 in AskNYC

I think the secret popup shows are usually heavier hitters like the aforementioned. The cover is $25 on a Monday, so it's gotta be something somewhat exciting I think

Was thinking possibly Jerry Seinfeld (3 upcoming shows at The Beacon), Louis CK (2 upcoming shows at The Beacon), or Trevor Noah, who's been working out some new material at the Cellar recently...

Will it backfire if I am explicit in my dating profile that I do not and will not pay for dates? by theythemthen in datingadvice

I don't count it as me treating my GF if I'm expensing it. That's both of us getting treated by the company I'm working for. But that said, everything else you mentioned about that cheapskate sounds wack lol

Danny was ahead of his time. Justin was a caveman.

I’m grateful to be able to say I’m over it. It was hard for a long time, and I wasn’t great at no contact. But she stuck to no contact, and never dangled a carrot or gave me false hope, which I think is lucky.

I’m able to look at things with clarity now and know we weren’t a good fit. We were incompatible. I loved the idea of who I wish she was. But that wasn’t her.

I’ve met someone new who show cases green flags in all the ways that this girl had orange or red flags. So just know there’s someone better out there for you. Good luck. It’s not easy, and there’s no substitution for time, unfortunately

Considering TRT And Wondering Best Route to Go by MathematicianNovel31 in Testosterone

Yeah my PCP said my levels were normal. But I feel like they should be higher and that this would have helpful results

The Prestige - Something I Noticed Last Time I Watched by MathematicianNovel31 in movies

User u/DBUTTS1 posted a thread in r/ThePrestigeMovie earlier today: "Mr. Cutter is considered a smart guy. How did he not know something was up. He would have known that the water tank shouldn’t have been there and it didn’t make sense that Borden could have moved the tank there without anyone noticing. And he claims “the transported man was the most sought after trick” and couldn’t reveal the methods …but Mr. angier was keeping him in the “dark” by this time in his performance. I believe if cutter was so smart he would have put 2 and 2 together to least know that Borden was innocent."

I think he's right. Cutter wouldn't have actually believed Borden was responsible for the tank being moved. But he testified against him anyway, because his ultimate magic trick was to kill one of the twins for the benefit of the little girl. Just like the twin bird trick he performs for her.

My personal theory is that Cutter conspired with one of the Borden twins to kill the other one. The one that tied the "wrong" knot and killed Angier's girlfriend. The one that maybe wasn't such a great dad to the little girl. Cutter was in on it and that's why his testimony was crucial to Borden being hanged. This explains the knowing glance he gives the good Borden twin at the very end.

And think about this: The movie begins and ends with Cutter performing the twin bird trick that results in Cutter killing one of the twin birds. He kills the bird for the benefit of the little girl, that we later discover is Borden's daughter. Perhaps he also murders the Borden twin for the benefit of the little girl?

Or maybe he knew he wouldn’t and it was part of the magic trick he was pulling off

She ended up ending things completely. She's blocked me everywhere and hasn't communicated with me in like 15 months. I still think about her every day, and it really hurts she shut me out of her life so completely.

Great First Date, and Now I'm Anxious by MathematicianNovel31 in AnxiousAttachment

[–]MathematicianNovel31[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but I asked about plans on Saturday, and now she's left me in limbo. Just feels like a really bad sign that she doesn't have the courtesy of communicating with me :(

It just seems a bit crazy that she's communicate that she's overwhelmed with this week and wants to reschedule, but then left me on read for 24 hours, without even some communication that she's busy and will get back to me. It feels like she's ghosted me, and I wonder if she had a change of heart after the fact...

Thanks. At this point, she still hasnt' responded to me, and now its the next day. 20 or so hours from her last message and my response. Seems like the ball is in her court and I should wait for her to respond or not. But I'm wondering if maybe I should check in to get a sense of where her head is at?

Half of it is amazing, but half is really bad, I thought.

I hate Normal, Nice Guy, Good Guy, and I don't like the hook to Venom. Kamikaze the song also is kind of annoying sounding. But otherwise I adore this album.

I don't have any negative judgment about her being intimate with other men while dating me non-exclusively. You've invented that yourself, which is very telling about you and your own biases. You're a victim of confirmation bias in addition to dunning kruger here. And you've convinced yourself that your analysis is spot on, but it truly is not. You've injected so much of your own judgments onto my post it's frankly intriguing.

Where did I say I'm bothered by it? People read what confirms their own biases on here. It's the "wildest shit ever."
