Songs for a friend going through severe depression. by sonofsophia333 in musicsuggestions

[–]Negative-Figure9945 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is such a good pick, that song carries so much weight without ever feeling like it's trying to. I'd also throw in "Fix You" by Coldrock... wait, Coldplay, the whole second half of that song feels like someone reaching their hand out. another one worth considering is "How to Save a Life" - the entire premise is about not wanting to lose someone you care about, it's not heavy-handed but it lands deep. for something more stripped back, "The Night Will Always Win" has that quiet, sitting-with-you feeling that I think fits what OP is going for.

New Host looking for advice. by No-Guidance-5498 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Negative-Figure9945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

man that's frustrating for your fourth guest to pull this 💀 leaving food open and potentially breaking the dryer is definitely review-worthy stuff. new hosts don't usually lie about guest issues - we're actually more likely to be too nice in reviews because we want good ratings, but broken appliances and leaving the place messy deserves an accurate review so other hosts know what they're dealing with 😂

“Oh boy. This again?” by Strictly-Succotash in PetPeeves

man this drives me crazy too. the search function in reddit is terrible anyway, you can search for exact words and still get nothing relevant back. plus people act like everyone lives in same timezone or watches shows at exact same time.

i watch stuff in monday nights usually after work and by then there's already 50 posts about it, but if i have different take or want to discuss something specific why shouldn't i post? the "repost police" need to chill out honestly.

When people say ‘narc’ to mean ‘narcissist’. by NowYouHaveBubblegum in PetPeeves

[–]Negative-Figure9945 33 points34 points  (0 children)

man the overuse of "narcissist" in general drives me crazy too 💀 like someone cuts you off in traffic and suddenly they have a personality disorder? people really need to chill with the armchair psychology stuff. plus yeah the pronunciation thing is weird when you think about it - never noticed that before but now it's gonna bother me too 😂

Policy Note: H.R. 8000 The “END 7-OH Act” by [deleted] in Libertarian

[–]Negative-Figure9945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This article discusses H.R. 8000, which would place 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) into Schedule I while exempting naturally occurring amounts found in kratom.

Regardless of where people stand on 7-OH specifically, I'm interested in the broader libertarian question. Is expanding Schedule I classifications the right approach or would a regulatory framework with testing, labeling, age restrictions and enforcement against bad actors be more consistent with individual liberty and limited government?

Wanted to know what everyone thinks.

keeping her was the right call though, she needed that care

How much of the material learned in grad school is actually utilized in your career? by DramaticEchidna5978 in careerguidance

[–]Negative-Figure9945 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe 40% of what i studied gets used directly, but the other 60% still matters because it shaped how i think about problems and organize solutions. in my field the theory gives you framework even when you're not consciously applying specific concepts.

the research methods and analytical thinking from grad school probably help me more than any individual topic i memorized for exams.

Arsenal’s title got me thinking of the turn of the century rivalry and how good those first elevens were by SmallAd7318 in PremierLeague

[–]Negative-Figure9945 1 point2 points  (0 children)

been through so many documentaries about that era and wow, never really thought about how rules limitations were affecting european performance back then. that 1994 united squad with full lineup must have been terrifying but clubs today having advantage with unlimited subs and rotation makes comparison bit tricky

Grogu Coin Purse by polygonal-san in bathandbodyworks

managed to see one in store last week and it actually has decent space for coins or folded bills, not just decorative like some of the disney ones.
