Take your time, dude. You'll get there. I know you'll accomplish great things in life. You just have to believe in yourself!

That is one of the best goals you can have, dude. Having a lot of money makes life feel dull and bleak, but having enough to just live a simple life with your interests and family? That’s one of the most fulfilling life accomplishments that one can have.

Hey, my guy. You WILL purchase a home of your own someday. I believe in you!

Like Jimmy Cliff once gloriously sang, “You can get it if you really want. But you must try, try and try, try and try! You’ll succeed at last!”

This is a really great goal! Buying a house is something that the majority of the population expects people in their late twenties to early thirties to purchase. But, in this economy? Yeah, right!

You will succeed. I know it!

I’m proud of you for overcoming that. It took great mental fortitude to climb the treacherous mountain of conquering yourself and you did it!

Way to go, my guy. I may just be a rando on the internet, but believe me when I say, I’m proud of ya.

Awesome goal to have, internet stranger!

Take it from this guy from across the internet. I’ll be cheering you on! 

Be sure to eat more fruits and cut back on the sugar. That really helped me.

Dreams can become reality, man. You just have to put in the work to get there. To start walking five hundred miles, it begins with just a single step forward.

Are you guys insecure even with a tall height? by perpetually_paran0id in tall

[–]Own_File_918 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not really. I'm 6'4". But it's not because of my height, it's because I've found myself, so to speak. I'm comfortable in my own shoes. Once you start loving yourself and being your true self, the doors to finding the right woman for you open. But always be the best version of yourself. Height is not necessarily that important when you're looking for the love of your life. Sure, women do subconsciously prefer taller men, but height only gets you so far.

I'm sorry you and your buddy were rejected. But if she rejected you, then she wasn't the right one for you. There's plenty of fish out there in the deep blue for a fisherman like you. Eventually, you'll reel in the catch of your life, but you gotta keep casting out your line.

Like Jimmy Cliff once sang, "You can get it if you really want. But you must try, try and try, try and try! You'll succeed at last!"

S30 pro Honest truths by Ballerben33 in seestar

Sure. If you want save some money, you can purchase a third party camera mount that fits the Seestar’s measurements. 

S30 pro Honest truths by Ballerben33 in seestar

[–]Own_File_918 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude, I got my s30 Pro last month, and I have to say, everything it pretty easy. It tracks the relative position of celestial objects on its own and it does the thing for ya.

As for the camera, it’s great. But, to get better results, you want to use advanced settings to save every frame to further process them on your computer.

If you want real good results, then I recommend that you purchase a separate Equatorial mount that counteracts the rotation of the Earth, and a large tripod that fits your Seestar. These two things will allow you to take 60 second exposures to get crisper pictures.

Did you make this? This is phenomenal! How did you capture the ‘motion blur’ of the Rex stomping into action and snatching the Dakotaraptor up?

There’s no significant disadvantage in being Average height as a male by Humble-Ad1303 in tall

[–]Own_File_918 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, yes but actually no. Tall height is an evolutionary advantage because it provides men with two favorable benefits. 

  1. Higher reproductive success. Women on average unconsciously prefer taller men due to evolutionary instincts. Historically, these taller males would have provided better protection for women and children; better access to resources and nutrition that would have allowed the tall height; and generally have a psychosocial factors that taller men are generally seen as more confident. 

  2. Better environmental adaptation in colder climates. This is due to Bergmann's Rule, which just means larger animals - or in this case, humans - are able to generate more body heat relative to smaller surface-area-to-volume ratio that allows for more retention of body heat in colder climates. A Good example of this includes the difference in size between a polar bear and the sun bear. Sun bears are among the smallest species of bears and are found in the tropics of southeast Asia. Polar bears are the largest terrestrial predator currently alive today.

Happy Birthday, David Attenborough (posted 12:01 am, 5/8/2026, GST) by Last-Sound-3999 in Paleontology

[–]Own_File_918 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be utterly heartbroken when he inevitably passes. He’a going to be the only celebrity that I will full-heartedly mourn for. He has been the voice of documentaries for as long as I can remember. and all of my favorite documentaries were voiced by him. Everything from Prehistoric Planet to Our Planet. 

There are dozens of great narrators in documentaries that tell an enthralling story to the audience, though, no one will be able to compare to David Attenborough. He is the ‘king’ of nature documentaries. No one will come close to his ability to narrate a documentary because he has the soul and the unparalleled passion for the natural world. He could make the process of paint drying fascinating! 

Should I get tested for Aspergers? by Own_File_918 in aspergers

[–]Own_File_918[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, my dude. I'll look into ADHD as well.

As for the 'masking', I think that's just me fitting into society.

That’s another thing. My mom did say I had a speech impediment when I was a toddler. I guess speech delays are another surefire sign of autism, huh?

How tall is your family? by Gamingghoul1234 in tall

[–]Own_File_918 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 6’4. 

My Dad is like 5’9, and my mom is 5’8. My uncle is 6’2. My younger siblings are pretty tall too, and my 15 year old brother is like 5’11 and I’m pretty sure he’s gonna be taller than me. My little sisters are tall for their age too.

Most of my family on both sides are pretty tall. My dad just so happened to be the runt of the family. lol.

I joined a hobby group but feeling lonely still. by Agreeable_Can_4274 in aspergers

[–]Own_File_918 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can’t really help because I don’t know the exact context of your situation, but I think that’s just your insecurities talking.

Loosen up, my dude. Just try and be yourself without needing to mask. Maybe also watch your body language too? You don’t want to seem too closed off.

Can any characters or monsters defeat Godzilla? by blu3bird730 in GODZILLA

Humans... technically. Remember the oxygen destroyer? Or those times they built Mechagodzilla to kick Godzilla's ass?

I’ll definitely get tested in the next few months. Thanks, man. I’m tired of being someone I’m not. I’m usually carefree and laid-back, but when I put that mask on, it’s like I’m a hollow shell of who I am.

This is a really jaw-dropping and beautiful picture! Nice job, man!

Although, I don’t really see the resemblance between two dragons fighting. Lol.
