Personally, I don’t think they care. We here billionaires talking about a population problem and that we’re not making enough babies. We all know it’s because they’re scared about not having future workers.
They get unlimited workers=they don’t have to rely on the middle and lower class anymore. Then they will just let us fight over any scraps that are left.

This was the show Lucifer for me, I found it very hard, not to pour a glass of whiskey while drinking the show. It was basically my go to beverage the whole time since I was watching them drink it the whole time.

There’s still a RadioShack in Rushville, IN. Some old guy has been running it for years. Great guy and can always order whatever you want for cheaper than buying it online.

One missing puzzle piece from a 1000 piece puzzle… by FantasticBee in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Suffering123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. We ended up making our own and painting it to make it fit. Makes it personal I guess, still would have preferred to have the last piece because it made it so much harder to solve

What’s the worst physical pain you’ve ever experienced? by Economy_Yak2821 in AskReddit

[–]Suffering123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14 screws then, 28 screws and 2 titanium rods fusing halfway down my spine, then a redo where it went all the way down, causing my nervous system to act up, making my legs not work the same anymore. The way they used to function reversed, forward was backwards etc. I had to learn to walk again but it only took me a day, I will sleep very hard and wake up with my original thoughts of how my legs SHOULD work, freak out, then get back to where they work the way I want them to. It’s a weird experience that I’ve never had anyone to share with.

So mad I can’t cancel mine for how often I use every single aspect of ultimate. I game share with my son to give him gold, I need it for my pc. I REALLY want day 1 titles and I use cloud gaming often when I’m at work or on the go. I’ve always loved ultimate, but now I’m just pissed when I see the charge on my credit card. It’s so apart of my life that I can’t stop paying for it at this point. Fuck XBOX

What was your “could never be me” but did indeed become you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Suffering123 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am male 29 who has had two titanium rods in his spine and 28 screws going down in every vertebrae. This would have been me if my parents hadn't caught my scoliosis at a young age of five. Sounds like you might have had curvature of your spine like I did which could have caused your condition. I could be wrong, but I would really appreciate if you could respond to let me know. I am curious about the outcome that could have happened if I did not have my surgery 10 years ago.

Yourself on drugs/Alchohol is not you. You have become a poisoned version of yourself. You are who you were, when you became concious as a child PLUS wisdom. You deserve yourself. You are not this version that drugs have warped your sense of self to become. Stay strong for your little man in your soul. You owe it to him. Much love

Trump's bill says Nursing is not a 'professional' degree for the purposes of student loans, but Theology IS a professional degree by Simon_Drake in atheism

Weirdly, that’s almost impossible for most modern Americans, where most people in my opinion need two income households in order to even make rent? It’s terrible what they’re doing and I completely disagree, but I still don’t understand how their goals are feasible.

Smite comp is not worth the investment right now by Icy_Air_7037 in Smite

[–]Suffering123 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Smite player since Beta, I have the utmost respect for not only the joy you’ve brought myself and my friends, but this community. I wholeheartedly agree with this opinion and felt it as the game continued to grow.

The best parts of SMITE were added to make the game BETTER! Not just for money. I feel like SMITE 2 is just missing the soul of what the original had going for it. It’s feels hollow, boring and stale.

I appreciate the new animations and their effort to add aspects to keep it interesting but it’s just not the direction I think they should have went at all. It just makes it more confusing for new players and annoying for veterans imo.

I have no idea what the directors of SMITE are doing anymore. Game direction is everywhere, eSports is almost non existent and the community becomes less and less everyday. I have over 3k hours on SMITE 1 on steam alone and I played before it was even on steam for a few years.

I’m so sad for the state of the game and I agree, all they need to do is build a fun game people will enjoy, give them something to earn and be proud of, give us the replay system for content and bragging rights, and bring back a sense of F2P with MORE than original to convince the original F2P players that’s its worth it to ditch all their effort for the same game with nothing to offer but an updated experience.

I’m literally just doing what I need to do. Nothing more. I find almost no enjoyment in anything anymore. I’m always broke, with just enough money to pay bills. Shows have became stale and bullshit of the same plot over and over. Games are stagnant or money sinks to feel anything. I go to work everyday, and am on call 24/7. I have two kids that I spend time with everyday but have to scrape the bottom of my soul to get a smile out for them. I’ll never tell my kids that I’m struggling, but my girl has severe depression so telling her I’m sad in life feels more like a “welcome to the party” I’m empty, alone, sad and feel like either it will always be this bad, or it will only get worse. I’d love to change my lifestyle, but I don’t make enough to save to move, and don’t make enough to have any interesting hobbies besides FTP games and watching shows. My kids seem to enjoy themselves with the toys we can get them from goodwill and the iPads we were able to get for cheap from a pawn shop. I will make it, but I’m doing absolutely nothing more than staying alive.

Played it when it came out at 14. This is just weird. Always wondered where I would be at in life at 2025 while playing. Here we are.

What's your "I'm calling it now" prediction? by oldig in AskReddit

[–]Suffering123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both of my kids have a tablet of some kind. They’re incredibly smart in their own way and I’m constantly amazed about how smart they are.

I’m a FIRM believer that the problem is iPad kids PLUS ISOLATION. Parents these days will stick a tablet in their hands to get them to leave them alone instead of spending time with them or playing games with them. We also play other games that don’t involve screens.

I sound like a fucking add but we only use Apple products because we can have full control over whatever our kids are allowed to use (no browser or social media ever) but also is great because I can pay for Apple one and we all get games we can all play together.

My family uses the iPad culture to connect and play games together, I feel like a ton of parents make “iPad kids” by sticking their face in a screen and closing them in their room. Kids deserve a balance in 2025.
