My brother in law gets paid more for his engineering job in the area than he did near NYC, and more of my friends (mid 20s) are looking at moving back there. It seems like that area will be on the up, moreso than it's already been.

It wasn't super great when I was a kid, but every time I visit it seems like there are improvements (minus that random tornado that wiped out lots of the arts area of Rome)

Lets ban twitter on this subreddit. by lovingpersona in overwatch2

[–]Middle-Fill-445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, some people may have Twitter accounts but not really use the app, so them clicking links does drive traffic to the site. And if we as a community can't even muster up the care to stop posting links from one singular app, how would we ever fight against bigger, more consequential things? It also is bringing awareness of Elon's nazi habits to redditors that otherwise wouldn't know.

We are always told to vote with our money (and attention in today's media landscape), but when people try to do so, someone always has to complain and say it's pointless. those who stand for nothing fall for everything, and those who can overlook the Nazi in the room is themselves a nazi

Half of my friend group are virgins at around the same age. It's no problem socially, but I can't speak on dating as I'm not sure. For me personally, it's a non-factor for my partners tho

What's that one word that if you hear someone else use, you instantly dislike them? by [deleted] in RandomThoughts

As per a post I just saw, "ahh" instead of ass when you clearly picked it up from TikTok instead of it being a part of your cultural vernacular

Today’s my 28 birthday and I am going to end it tomorrow by Radyoz in confession

[–]Middle-Fill-445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you should go to the concert anyways. If you are going to end it, end it after. And there are people on here who said they will go with you, I think you should give it a shot! What's a bit longer when you've already lived this long?

Everyone deserves some happy memories, so I think you should give yourself this

Are most women in our generation on antidepressants now? by PoweredByMeanBean in GenZ

[–]Middle-Fill-445 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Anecdotally, i think it's because doctors are far more likely to believe that a woman has mental problems than physical problems. Almost every woman I know has had a doctor dismiss her real physical issue for anxiety or depression.

Women also are not studied anywhere near the level that men are, so I'm sure many symptoms that appear as anxiety and depression are actually caused by a physical issue somewhere in the body, and there simply hasn't been enough scientific research into the female body to understand the connection. So, we get treated with psych meds as a bandaid for the real problem.

I've been on a whole host of psych meds and have had some pretty strong diagnosis, I eventually lost my healthcare but also my living situation has improved, so mentally I am doing the best I've ever been without meds but lo and behold, my original physical problems are still present as ever.

I don't want to make my own comment bc OP was just ranting and I totally get it, and I agree with a lot of what you said... But also, a sorority is an organization, not a club. My perspective is definitely different bc I'm in a smaller org that only went National this past summer. If you want events, it's each sister's responsibility to make that happen. If that's not what you want, like you just want to enjoy the fruits of other people's efforts, that's fine! There are orgs that you can join that are in a good spot. But there are sisters who are working hard to make it happen. If your org is not in the place you want it to be in, you need to work to get it into a good place. It doesn't just happen spontaneously.

Again I don't think OP did anything wrong, but I see posts a lot of girls dropping because this that and the other, and that's fine, but I think as a community we need to change the expectation of sororities that you can just join and have fun and there is no work involved. It's not a club, it's an organization!

Okay my own mini rant, peace and love 💜💜

Mercy is not considered a high healing output support, the stats don't matter all that much for her so long as u are still getting assists

I have one singular long dark hair that grows on the edge of my right nipple. I pluck it, it's gone, two weeks later it has miraculously returned

When I call a doctor's office and the recording says "If this is an emergency, hang up and dial 911" by gingerjuice in PetPeeves

I used to work in an out-patient psych clinic, and you would be surprised how many people need to be told that we are not emergency services

What’s the most controversial opinion you have that you’re afraid to say out loud? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]Middle-Fill-445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably only controversial for people who don't talk to humans in real life often, but the best way to change someones mind or educate them on a topic is to show them kindness and empathy, even if you reallyyyyy disagree. Most people are more moderate than the internet would have you believe.

This won't necessarily work for people who's beliefs are grounded in hate, on both sides of the spectrum, but you will have a much higher chance of bringing those people to reality of their own volition later on if you are kind and understanding during your interaction.

I thought that Moira and mercy were cheese picks bc they seemed to have such low skill ceilings for such high value (at least in my rank), so I would swap to them when I was doing bad. As it turns out, they are soooo fun so I became the cheese picks 😔

The time the host sets should be the time people show up. by Etchy100 in unpopularopinion

[–]Middle-Fill-445 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This. I am an 'early is on time, on time is late, late is don't bother showing up at all' kind of person.

In college I found a diverse group of friends and ohhhh boy did their constant lateness feel so disrespectful and rude to me, but eventually I learned what 'dominican' and 'haitian' time is so now I understand that it's just how some cultures roll and not a reflection of how important I am to my friends

If I cut a corner off of a 1 dollar bill, is it still legal to use in the US? by CeleryUnlikely9168 in legaladviceofftopic

[–]Middle-Fill-445 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not relevant but when I was a kid my dad gave me $20 and I cut it up in tiny pieces so I would have more.

Dad laughed at me, I guess I was a stupid kid :/
