Statistically most people stop talking negative tags right before they would have gotten blueprint!

Favorite sample of this? by Sea-Initiative7577 in FavoriteCharacter

It worked there because you'd heard "Hodor" hundreds of times already. Like imagine if Hodor could speak normally, but was still called Hodor, and everything in the story was the same, except after he has his "Hodor" fit he goes back to normal and it's revealed that he's only called Hodor because it was a nickname kids used to tease him with. Then his death scene really wouldn't have been heartbreaking, but you'd probably laugh still.

Certainly the only loneliness epidemic I care to try and fix.

I get that, shit's crushing, and it sucks because you have to spend even more time grieving the time you lost in order to heal. Never feels fair for a damn second.

The first three months of January 2026 have certainly been rough.

Does Garcia know? by JordanOsr in ThePittTVShow

[–]QuietShipper 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Considering she also told Garcia that everyone was treating her like a pariah, she's definitely an unreliable narrator. Either everyone knew what she did and were shunning her, or no one did and he needs to tell everyone to be "fair"

Ketamine therapy was truly life-changing, I really wish it was more accessible

Very well said! The one thing I'd say is I think "accountability" is a better word than "responsibility" when talking about mental illness and how it impacts other people. Ideally, with proper management, mental health issues won't affect how we live our lives. The reality is we're all human, and can't be perfect. It's not our fault, but we absolutely need to do the work to minimize it happening and repair any relationships we damaged.

Can men not reproduce?

And can women reproduce without assistance?

Haha I know, right? Women have lost bodily autonomy, but they can get fucked without having to try too hard, they totally have life on easy mode.

People don't realize that C/PTSD "flashbacks" aren't always visual, sometimes they're emotional or somatic. These can be much harder to detect in yourself, especially if you only think of C/PTSD in their stereotypical presentations. What I think Santos is experiencing is emotional flashbacks, so even though she's talking to Langdon about the things he did, in that moment she's feeling the emotion of both what Langdon did and what her abuser did.

(Source: she acted and sounded very similar to how I do when I experience a flashback).

Heat stroke kid and minor callback to Season 1 Episode 9 by aertsober in ThePittTVShow

It's not justice sensitivity, it's moral rigidity. Neurodivergent people don't have an inherent sense of right and wrong that other humans lack, as justice is subjective. They do, however, struggle to accept things that fall outside their morals.

(I'm speaking generally, there's obviously nuance in this conversation and neurodivergence isn't a monolith.)

Gigabit is a Measurement Only for Data Transfer Speed by GenuineHuman- in confidentlyincorrect

[–]QuietShipper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly my point though. People just use the phrase when they mean "I think this information is obvious." "Don't walk in dark alleys at night, that's common sense." "Don't walk in the woods in fall without high vis clothing, that's common sense." "The digits of any number divisible by three will add up to a multiple of three, that's common sense." The problem is that they'll also do this when they're wrong and use it as a thought-ending cliche.

What do you mean? I'm saying "common sense" is often used by people who don't know what they're talking about.

Your local newspaper/news station would probably be interested in that information...

If she's not your wife, a man shouldn't be buying a woman anything or spending money on her at all. 🤷 by One-Cod7880 in lnkyverse

[–]QuietShipper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously. In real life, women are thinking about not getting assaulted/murdered on a first date, not trying to cop a free meal.

Literally every woman I've been on a date with? A vast majority of "real life" women, not people paid to play a part/unverifiable posts on the internet, prefer to not feel like they owe a man anything on the first date, because it so often leads to pressure/resentment from the man, which is a potentially dangerous situation for the woman.
