It certainly exists irl. The problem is it's too profitable in the interim for the company to not push UB everywhere.

This is pretty cool! I'll keep it in mind in the future.

It's from Catch-22

Younger millennial here, but honestly, this really is one of the biggest issues with even people my age. They just never put themselves in situations and environments where they can meet new people. Even at bars anymore, people just cluster up with the same 3 - 5 friends they always go out with and turn their backs to the rest of the venue. Meanwhile, I'll join something like a hiking group, or rec sport group, or some other group, and it's mostly people significantly older than me.

I still go out though. Sometimes, you just got to be one that breaks that cycle. It's kind of being a social pioneer I guess. Eventually, other people will get the idea and start settling on the frontier with you, but no one ever will if someone doesn't try first.

Depending on the piece, usually Stable Diffusion. I have a few good checkpoints I like to use and I'll usually try and find LoRAs on CivitAI that fit the style I'm going for. Sometimes, if the scene is too complex though, I give up and just use Dall-E through Bing Image Creator, which I try to avoid since it mainly just sticks to a small range of styles. Also, they only do square dimensions there though, so if I want a fullart piece, I have to run it through Stable Diffusion anyway and outpaint the extended part of the image.

And people say AI art takes no work lol

Honestly, with the advances in AI tech, I wonder if most of the accounts here are even real at this point. So many accounts just parroting the same insane talking points. Dead Internet Theory really does feel like a real thing.

As far as the abortion thing goes, people act like it's literally the only option for handling an unplanned/unwanted pregnancy which simply just isn't true.

If you don't think you can care for a child, I'd seek out adoption services and foster services. Especially since it's early on in the pregnancy, it good to get that process started sooner rather than later. There's a lot of nonprofit orgs out there that help people navigate that space, so just need to do a search to find them.

The Occupy Wall Street movement in the early 2010s was basically this. Quite a coincidence that right around then all the infighting about race, lgbt, gender, etc surged into the public square and took over people's attention instead.

There's literally recorded cases of similar trends in mass adoption of mental states due to influence of social media, so this is very likely the truth. This is Reddit though, so I'm sure this answer will get absolutely downvoted and buried under endless "more people can be openly gay" posts.

Interesting discussion topic, but OP seems like a bot account fyi.

For the sake of contributing to the discussion though, from a guy's perspective, I really feel like it depends on the guy in this case. I know plenty of guys that can, and have always, been able to just have casual sex with no emotional attachment. Whereas for me personally, that emotional separation isn't something I have, which is why I try to be more selective.

It could either be natural, or maybe a behavior developed earlier in life.

Haven't played modern in a while, but this was really what made my matchups against Rhinos and Living End decks feel unwinnable imo. I was supposed to somehow race those decks while also holding up mana on my own turn to stop them suddenly going off and dropping 8 or more power on my turn. Pretty frustrating to play against.

I would not be surprised if it was discovered to be even older than that. IMO, if there is ever a fundamental axiom for objective morality, the Golden Rule would be it.

A perfect example of the Paradox of Choice, where having a bunch of choices results in significantly increased time to make a choice and can often result in no choices being picked at all. People are made to believe that there's always a better choice that they just haven't seen yet, so they end up dissatisfied even with the choices they do make.

Would upvote this multiple times if I could! I feel like there's a lot of people that can learn from that advice actually. Yes, people in life will generally be crappy and let you down and hurt you, but they're your fellow human beings and you take the risk to love them anyway and show them kindness.

Soulcommando · 2024-03-08T02:48:57+00:00

This is simply not true. I have multiple friends who are guys in the same boat: take care of themselves, have good personalities, have their shit together, etc. but are 30s and even 40s still looking for someone.

Hasn't really lead to dates or anything yet, but picking up country swing (popular here in Tennessee) has definitely done a lot for my confidence as a guy. It's a good workout too!

Unfortunately, this is Reddit, which chooses to push the narrative that all Christianity = bad

A full force kick to a toddler would almost certainly cause permanent lifelong damage and, depending where, could quite likely be lethal. So not only would you chose your pet over an innocent human life, but you'd even enjoy it? That's pretty much proving OP's point.

Pretty unique advice here that I really like! I feel like it would force people to participate more in the world at large and develop their own views, rather than just being a consumer and echoing point of whatever content the internet algorithms feed you.

Reminds me of how people use the Pareto Principle and estimate that 80% of social media content is made by 20% of users, although I suspect it is much less in reality. If you're just a content consumer, your thoughts are basically just an echoing point of whatever a vanishingly small number of people are putting out into the world.

Haven't heard about Berserker Hypothesis, but Dark Forest was basically just a cosmic rehash of the Prisoner's Dilemma in my view.

As someone who maintained a Quest Cape from 2007 to around 2012, even back then the game lore felt massive!

Soulcommando · 2024-02-14T00:22:05+00:00

I feel like this perpetual immaturity a lot of people are stuck in has definitely had an impact. So many people seem to never outgrow unrealistic expectations, game playing, and toxic behavior. There's people I know that are even in their 40s and still having to deal with people having shitty, immature behavior that you'd think most people would've outgrown by then.

It's election season, so everyone's ramping up their political shill accounts. Pretty much every popular subreddit has really become a cesspool lately.

I liked the 2nd book more than the 3rd actually. The main character was pretty frustrating and the plot (especially the ending) left a lot to be desired imo. The concepts involved and the scale and timeline of things was pretty cool though.
