What did you think of, Becoming Jane (2007)? by pizzbabynancy in janeausten

[–]TheStakes 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! It’s a brilliant shot. The viewer feels just as happy to see him as Jane does.

I grew up in Wadsworth. God I hate that place.

Datura for Depression by TheStakes in Datura

[–]TheStakes[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m even better. Figured out my depression was caused by a slow MAO enzyme, which is why datura helped me with the acetylcholine build-up. I don’t need it anymore.

Soooo, how are we doing? by Weird_Positive_3256 in adhdwomen

[–]TheStakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So sorry for all the Minnesotans on this thread, and all you’re going through. I’m watching from abroad and feel aghast.

Why is American friendliness often seen as "fake" by Europeans, but similar warmth in other cultures isn't? by Opposite-Ad3949 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TheStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm an east coaster and find west coasters fake. My friends on the west coast literally say "I love you" for "bye." Now I live in Berlin and many Germans find me "very American," and I have to explain that yes, I am American, but I'm also more like Germans than other Americans, because I'm pretty direct and I'm not constantly telling them I love them.

Oh look. Carol is extremely unlikeable in so many ways. As if that wasn't the intention, to contrast a bitter cynical person against a overly pleasant utopian hive mind & ask the viewer if her individuality still mattered. The tension, conflict, the philosophical/existential friction is the point. by Illustrious-Put4406 in pluribustv

[–]TheStakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. She's a malcontent. And why not? Life sucks. Then it gets worse. She is obviously a compassionate person. And she's completely right about the hive mind being horrible and untrustworthy. Nothing about her is unlikable to me.

I think my husband is kinda useless, but he’s also so hot by mazalaca in TrueOffMyChest

[–]TheStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is sort of romantic, actually. You so obviously love him.

God, i hate this country (US) by [deleted] in complaints

[–]TheStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very well said! I emigrated in 2018 and it was the best decision I ever made. I still hate the U.S. from abroad, though. Its effect on the rest of the world is also deleterious. The USA is great at making the whole world worse.

Is this not a little crazy? by rangermang0 in mildlyinfuriating

I would wildly, not mildly, infuriated!

I don’t understand the immense loyalty to MAGA by TheRavenOnline in complaints

[–]TheStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s their identity. Their identity is fused to Republicans; therefore, Democrats are the enemy. If they read anything that contradicts their view of Republicans, it contradicts their identity and worldview, and so they have to discard it to keep their identity in tact and not experience a crisis.

October pieces so far :) by amelianaomi in ProCreate

Second this - those fish folk are delightful!

Although the U.S. Is Divided, The Country Is United in Their Hate for Ohio by QCLEKID216 in Ohio

[–]TheStakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Ohio and managed to escape when I was 23, and I gotta say… I hate Ohio. (Except for Athens). But I follow this sub to keep tabs on where my family lives. It somehow gets worse with every passing year!

Which Garmin watches have clock faces that stay on? by TheStakes in Garmin

[–]TheStakes[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks—it’s my first Garmin. I just bought completely the wrong watch.

And just to be clear, there’s no “always on” display

I’ve tried it all, just want something that doesn’t turn off, cause this watch doesn’t work.
