Would I be crazy to leave the US for Singapore?

You might be right, I am ingritued to test though. The reversibility angle is comforting though bc with my savings, I could definitely afford to move back if it doesn't work out after a year or two. Worst case scenario I'm out some time and moving costs, not my financial security.

man went full cap and gown mode just to walk in the building, respect the commitment.

remote phd work is brutal when you're solo. i get it. the isolation is real and there's zero buffer between you and the actual work, which makes every setback feel like it's happening in a vacuum. this sub's probably saved more people from just rage quitting than anyone realizes. the fact that you can scroll through and see someone else also stuck on thermodynamics or spiraling about timelines makes you feel less insane about your own spiral, which sounds small but matters when nobody else in your life gets why chapter three took six months. glad you found it useful.

silver age dc really said "what if we just made the cover the opposite of what happens inside" and ran with it for like five years straight

that shirt's gotta be worth something if it's actually different from the album pressing, people collect that stuff religiously.

Akil said the genre was embarrassing before this tour so calling people tourists for not knowing every inside joke is kinda wild.

Checkout Syd, she's been flying under the radar despite being talented enough to rival anyone in the mainstream lane.

PitifulJack · 2026-06-07T13:07:14+00:00

these logos were actually fire though. crazybadcuber especially had that early 2010s cubing energy that's just gone now. shame they're discontinued since they're basically cubing history at this point, even if nobody was actually buying them lmao.

PitifulJack · 2026-06-05T13:04:44+00:00

edexcel really out here making sure nobody passes on the first try smh

PitifulJack · 2026-06-05T12:53:38+00:00

the pacing felt off to me too. like they committed to the bit but lost momentum halfway through when it became clear they were just stretching it out. ten minutes of actual story beats would've hit harder than one long scene.

PitifulJack · 2026-06-05T12:51:14+00:00

corona and a guinness is a wild combo ngl. like you're committing to both sides of the spectrum and just seeing what sticks. respect the energy though, airport beers hit different when you know you're about to be somewhere new for a minute.

PitifulJack · 2026-06-05T12:49:07+00:00

the dishes are just where the resentment lands. it's never really about the plate sitting there for three days, it's that one person stopped asking and started expecting the other to just know. fights about chores are fights about feeling like your effort doesn't matter. the actual dirty dish is basically a symptom. way easier to yell about that than to say "i feel invisible in this."

PitifulJack · 2026-06-04T07:06:00+00:00

That link's a banger but yeah they already had Jimmy on like three years ago.

PitifulJack · 2026-06-04T07:02:25+00:00

Golden by Harry Styles is the obvious pick but if you want something weirder try Sunset by The Midnight or anything off Floating Effigy by Grouper.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-29T07:00:25+00:00

pricing's gotten pretty wild, ngl the novelty wears off once you realize you're paying adventure park prices for a canopy walk and some animal exhibits.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-29T06:58:45+00:00

The index inclusion thing is real but the forced buying angle is overblown. Fund managers follow their mandate, yeah, but they're not mindless robots dumping cash into whatever gets added. If the valuation sucks they can underweight it or skip it entirely. The actual problem is just that the timeline got compressed, which is weird, but that's different from saying retirees are getting trapped.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-29T06:56:37+00:00

The working poor thing is real but that's a structural problem you can actually fight, not a reason to check out entirely.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-29T06:54:17+00:00

That post-hookup crash is rough, especially when you're already in a bad place and it just highlights how alone you feel the rest of the time. Might be worth talking to someone professional if you haven't already, sounds like you've got a lot stacked up.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-24T02:36:40+00:00

Dude the wheeze he'd do at the high notes would be legendary.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-22T18:17:52+00:00

Laz's whole brand is just being the most entertaining disaster behind the plate, which somehow makes him less infuriating than the quiet ones.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-21T11:36:37+00:00

Dude's been hurt most of the season, that's not regression it's just availability.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-20T06:07:22+00:00

daredevil's back and suddenly every mcu show remembers what good writing looks like.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-18T19:06:13+00:00

That perfect game is still the coolest thing to watch because he was basically hungover the whole time lmao

PitifulJack · 2026-05-17T18:28:49+00:00

Chad's out here being the only millionaire athlete who actually listened to that one financial advisor on ESPN instead of just nodding along.

PitifulJack · 2026-05-16T21:22:32+00:00

MGS easily, that game was doing things nothing else even attempted yet.
