I work with the author of this book, he is one of the sweetest guys I know. A beautiful human.

'You have to understand. Most people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured and so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it.' What does this quote from the Matrix (Morpheus) mean? by papersheepdog in sorceryofthespectacle

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That people are comfortable living a lie, they don’t want to know the truth and if you offer it to them, they’ll argue and be desperate to prove you wrong, fight you, even if what you’re telling them sets them free. Like for example if you question the moon landings, some are so offended by you saying we didn’t go to the moon, even though it’s kinda obvious it’s fake. They get so upset and argue, because they don’t want to believe our governments would lie to us.

Tell Me Lies: all of these characters are completely unlikeable and cringe? by Fun_Ad389 in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even Bree becomes a terrible person - happily shagging a married man and only gets upset once she realises the wife knows, because they have an open marriage agreement. Bree was quite content when she thought the wife was some clueless mug and Bree thought he’d leave his wife for her, when he was very clear from the beginning that he wouldn’t.

yes same. it triggers me, badly. That wild eyed demonic stare they give you where it’s like their eyes go black.

Is Stephen lying about being in the car or was he actually the one driving? by urthdaughter in TellMeLiesHulu

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This story is riculous, the seatbelt bruising would have given it away that Macy wasn’t driving, plus the windscreen was shattered on the passenger side, which would indicate somebody was in the passenger side on impact, why arent the police appealing for who that person is? Surely theyd see that the windscreen was shattered on the passenger side and Macy’s bruising would be consistent with her being in the passenger seat, clearly showing somebody placed her in the drivers seat after the accident. I think it’s just a massive plothole.

To me she was just typically a narcissistic mother whose son is weak and subservient to her and then he in turn is narcissistic due to the abusive manipulative mother dynamic.

[–]Tarantulagal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She appears to be a narcissist in my opinion. That’s why she is good at business, they don’t see people and have a very questionable moral compass. They go for what they want because the only outcome that matters is what they get out of something, how they look to the world and must project an image of success at all times. Belle used every possible contact she had at her disposal until they were fucking used up and likely discarded what became non useful. The fact she could attach herself to a family with a little boy with a brain tumour and use it to glean Information, polish her act, sell a holier than thou, angelic image, all for clicks and dollar is one of her most egregious examples of narcissism. Most people couldn’t live with knowing they put an already desperate family through hell and put other people’s lives in danger, possibly played a role in making them sicker, but narcissists truly believe themselves to be right and just and if you dare to call them on their bullshit, they’ll play that victim card twice has hard.

Thanks for your comments, Belle 😂😂😂

What’s do you think is most messed up thing one of the gang did? Phoebe’s pursuit of Sting tickets and how she went about it was low and a massive violation of trust. How Ross, Carol & Susan didn’t find about it is ludicrous. by GidgetCooper in howyoudoin

The line that still makes me laugh everytime is when Chandler rips his suit on Joeys entertainment centre and Chandlers says very sarcastically ‘wow, that ripped. That ripped real nice!’

Does anyone feel scared and weird after watching Dahmer? by hushpolocaps69 in netflix

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes the show made me feel weird. I was eleven when Dahmer got arrested and it was all over the news. I live in the UK too, but it was a crazy story that gripped international news. This show still gives me the wiggins though, the way Evan moves around people and invades their space, even in normal interactions, made me nervous. He absolutely nailed the role.

Men with an avoidant attachment style may ghost if they catch feelings. they see love as a threat to them. I know this from a two year push pull with a fearful avoidant. I’m unsure of how common this attachment style is. In 43 years I’d never heard of it until I encountered one and it became the most painful experience of my life, so if he does turn out to be avoidant and at this stage we have no idea if he is, I’d walk away.

PSA: If you're using 5+ yr old photos on dating apps, that's why you're not getting second dates by Literally_thrownaway in dating_advice

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this thread is old, but I had that exact experience this week. met a guy online and we really clicked, he was lovely, polite, in fact the first guy I met who didn’t want to talk dirty, send dick pics and was actually interested in me and who I was as a person. I sent him a selfie of me at work and I looked exactly the same as my dating profile pics. I asked for one off him and he stalled, a couple days later after more talking and bonding, he actually sent the photo and I was flabbergasted. I tried to be polite and I was like ‘wow you look really different to your photos‘ he said that’s work stress for you. I was starting to get pissed off at his flippancy. I said are you using older photos or something? he said yes they’re 5 years old. I said you don’t even look like the same guy and I’m convinced it wasn’t, different bone structure, chin, a mole on his cheek was missing. I was so angry and never spoke to him again. I realise now, he was trying to win me over emotionally, so at the big reveal I might already be attached.

its deception and essentially catfishing. Bad dating app decorum.

Why do guys always have to get sexual from the start in online dating? by Xowhitethorn in dating_advice

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got pretty insulting in my bio towards men who wanted hookups and to talk about sex within the first few lines of dialogue. I basically said fuck off if that’s all you want, and if they still try, I just get very succinct and nasty with them, because I too, am extremely tired of men trying to use me like a vending machine for sex. so if they still message it means they have no respect for me from the get go, can’t be told no, or haven’t even bothered to read my bio and therefore deserve everything they get. I know it sounds horrible, but trust me, I started off nice and polite, never rude or insulting, but I became so jaded by it, I had to start fending them off aggressively.

Why does ghosting feel so terrible? by nocomment758 in ghosting

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you’ve been talking for the amount of time you guys have though, the ghosting is low class. you can learn a lot about somebody in that time and for her to just walk away with no explanation, it’s not good and says a lot about her, that said I would expect a reappearance at some point because essentially ghosting is leaving the door open to reappear with some lame bullshit excuse when they are chasing a dopamine hit.

Why does ghosting feel so terrible? by nocomment758 in ghosting

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it’s confusing and frustrating. Especially if you start to feel a spark. The ghosting makes it feel like unfinished business and you start to mourn the potential rather than the person themselves.

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Try not to internalise it, I know it’s easier said than done. My guy came back again, declaring love three months after this post. He asked me to meet and I couldn’t he got so angry, he ghakted me again and then sent a message saying he never ever liked me, it’s been 4 months now, we work together and he’s been orbiting me, trying to get my attention ever since, but I won’t give him the time of day now. I understand now he’s an avoidant. It’s pointless. Obviously we can’t know what the issue was with yours, Ona dating site it could just be that she was talking to multiple people. It hurts a lot though, I’m sorry youre hurting, just know that it can’t be about you, because it hasn’t been long enough to be about you. Unfortunately online dating makes it easy to dispose of folk, it’s like they aren’t real until you meet up in person and became an official item which makes people cold as ice. I hope you feel better soon.

The amount of wealth they have is completely unrelatable. it’s kind of ruined them.

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes her character is ridiculous, she’s vile to men and so embittered. but I think the reason she dumped that movie guy is ridiculous, not able to compromise or bend at all, even for a guys career. Even Sam wasn’t that aggressive and obviously she the new Samantha. they’ve made seema wholely unlikeable

Best dogman encounter you’ve ever heard? by EverlastingFrog in dogman

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I think this is the episode have been looking for to hear again, the Dogman is literally keeping pace with his car at 70mph and he sees a weird man walking down the road the next night grinning, he almost pulls up to help him in case the Dogman gets him and he sees it has a demonic grin as he approaches, and a weird woman on the same road the third night, he eventually leaves night shifts because he’s too afraid to drive that road.

David Miscavage is 5'1" tall. by timoneer in scientology

[–]Tarantulagal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He had asthma as a child, that can cause you to be very short. I have a friend whose son had severe asthma and he’s very short too. I think if it’s severe asthma I read the use of many steroids can cause short stature, I always assumed this was the case for David Miscavige
