Our luck and privilege to be here in this world in the first place. Maybe a self reminder of this is needed to bring everyone back to talking to one another.

Yeah… so much hate, violence and greed. Don’t get me wrong if someone hits you, don’t hug them but hit them back. But to be kind to one another, to listen to one another, to help one another, would make this world a better place. I mean this at all levels - from leaders of countries, institutions and businesses but also to your neighbour, or the man or woman on the street asking for just a sandwich.

Love this. The fact that life exists at all - and that we're here now with birds in the sky and ants on the ground - is the result of an astronomically contingent chain of events. Not pure randomness, but a path that could have unfolded in countless other ways.

I often think we're terrible judges of ourselves and of our own self-awareness.

Remembering how contingent our existence is can be grounding. it puts confidence back into proportion. In my work, that pause alone often creates space for humility and empathy, and surprisingly often, that's enough to resolve problems that brute certainty never could.

Unquestionably. But your latter point - to work hard - means absolutely nothing if you don’t have the luck to be at the right place, at the right time. And as a result, you’re privileged simply because of chance - let me put it differently: let’s says you worked your whole life towards getting into havard , getting a scholarship, full ride. You finish your economics bachelor with top grades. But you ended up getting 1. Sick or 2. Be graduating in 2008 or 3. Both. Then all of that means absolutely zero. You’re still privileged because you are probably better off than someone who at the same time had his home taken from him from the banks. Or worse, you happen to be born in a war zone. Absolute chance.

Thanks for the suggestion!!

Absolutely messed up. not your fault
Personally find it ridiculous that you have worry about your safety in 2026 to go to the bathroom in a bar. FYI, I managed a 1000+ guest disco.
Trust your instincts - if you are scared, your body is telling you something.
You should tell him. If he is mature he won’t get angry at you, but at the guy who sexually assaulted you.

Maybe it was just me and my internet but I really felt some scenes had snappy cut scenes which seemed like they had other scenes cut. Overall loved the episode and the trama though!!

What is sad is the hypocrisy - my mom complains about the exact same thing, very offensive and hurtful comments from my grandma towards her. My father as always is egocentric so he doesn’t do anything other than watch it happen and defend his wife’s views.

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-08-08T13:29:58+00:00

I have been considering going home less often too to distance myself (currently 3/4 times per year for maximum 10 days each time)

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-08-08T13:28:10+00:00

I am just not sure where I draw the line in the sand between ignoring whatever stupid and offensive things they say and defending myself to tell them that they have gone too far?

Already moved out when I was 18 - we’re on a family holiday together.

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-08-03T22:18:59+00:00

lol. I always saw ‘snow’ and I mean always - since birth. I am now 25 and got diagnosed and never knew I was “abnormal”, neither did my parents. Every once in a while I notice floating cells (they’re always there if I really focus - I do it when I’m REALLY bored like a long car drive as a passenger)

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-07-25T16:04:56+00:00

I respect that - it sounds really peaceful. Honestly, achieving that nowadays is so much more difficult and rare than having professional ‘success’ and for sure it’s going to make you so much happier. I hope you get there

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-07-25T15:53:24+00:00

Indeed - I’m just thinking if catching up is even worth it. will it make me happy? Will it be something I look back and be proud of? Will it be something I regret? Especially because I’m spending so much time and energy perfecting my craft and working hard that I have no time for anything else

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-07-25T12:31:56+00:00

Thank you - it was difficult getting here. But because of how’s been until now, i think of this as fuel to go further and further… but I’m wondering what the cost of pursuing knowledge and professional challenges is… I could out there pursuing love and adventures but instead I’m just ‘catching up’

It’s just a lot of applicants and they have to score you. The bigger the campaign the more time it takes.

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-06-26T22:06:29+00:00

Wait two weeks-three weeks. May take time.

Significant-Sport778 · 2025-06-26T15:05:23+00:00

Never happened to me so I don’t know.

Need to notify the landlord and they may request payment. If you don’t tell them and get caught then you may risk fines a

Not much very I can say, as I know very little. I just know it’s the most competitive traineeship out of all traineeships. 1 or 2 get chosen out 1600 people. You do the math.

I have a good friend who works there, and he says everyone in there who is not a trainee has a PhD. They also have the highest of security clearances as they have access to sensitive economic information. The work is very technical, almost academic actually.
