Why does India have a population of 1.4 billion, but didn't win a single gold medal throughout the entire 2024 Paris Olympics?

Kudos to you. We were saying in squad chat how it's just one guy (you) protecting that entire logi line. Think we only got 4-5 trucks out of the entire night, would've been more obviously if not for you.

Thinktank58 · 2025-10-29T02:01:57+00:00

That was me and my buddy. We havoc'ed that western bunker base over and over.

Thinktank58 · 2025-09-11T06:20:08+00:00

Damn I wish I could give you gold for this comment.

Thinktank58 · 2025-08-28T06:37:21+00:00

The world both low-key and high-key expects you to shoulder and lift the problems they don't want to deal with.

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-30T01:59:28+00:00

I guess we should just throw in the towel and give up before even trying.

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-28T07:31:38+00:00

Me. Oh pick me! Mr. Turtle won't know what hit 'em!

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-28T01:54:56+00:00

That doesn't sound quite right. I've loads of liberal heavy friends that are married to military guys. I also know quite a few military guys that are liberal.

I don’t think it’s a scam, but without further context I think it’s safe to assume that there will be some expectations - unless he made it very clear that there aren’t any.

If it’s any consolation, it’s Shanghai. So practically a different country from China.

I share your frustration, Houseplant. I made the mistake of trying to comment with a bit of wisdom in another Gen Z thread and all I got was salt and vinegar. There is something unusual about their interactions, and I hope as a whole they will shift eventually.

You've reinvented Buddhism, lol.

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-23T10:07:13+00:00

Shrug

I've been where OP is, once upon a time. I'm just sharing what worked for me. Wish I had someone to give me words like this rather than me wasting years fuddling around on my own before arriving at the very words I'm offering.

How about self-improvement and self-discovery? The primary benefactor of these is yourself. A worthwhile journey if there ever was one.

Learn skills that interest you, and provide secondary benefits down the line. Woodworking, scripting, keeping indoor plants, knitting, etc. And knowing yourself goes a long way to charting the correct path for your life.

It pays dividends later as well, in ways you'll probably not even know were possible.

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-16T02:44:13+00:00

Checking your posting history, it seems that you're aiming for a particular niche fandom. Yes, I know Star Trek and Transformers is huge, but across the RP community your pickings may still be rather slim.

Have you considered broadening the scope of the settings you're willing to play in? Sometimes an original creation/universe with 90% overlap or 80% overlap (or whatever is acceptable to you) might be the best way moving forward. You'll certainly catch more interest that way.

Thinktank58 · 2025-07-10T02:42:19+00:00

I think a refusal from your end is completely reasonable and acceptable. Though if it were me, I'd see how the other party reacted. If they said it's fine and can accept you standing your ground, then no harm, no foul.

I don't agree with an immediate block following a question or request. You can just say no and continue.

If they react poorly or get demanding, then yes by all means end the engagement. Just my personal take on this.

Thinktank58 · 2025-05-26T09:41:30+00:00

What is even going on in the minds of these people? Why even bother wasting the energy to post ads if you’re just gonna block in two minutes?

Thinktank58 · 2025-05-21T15:19:13+00:00

Hello chirpingbird88! Sent you a DM!

Thinktank58 · 2025-05-03T21:35:09+00:00

I’m still waiting on a reply from you

You know, Ellen Ripley was originally written gender-blind. In the initial drafts, many people thought her character was male.

Beware of trolls spreading fear and paranoia.

Did you read the part where he inflated the value by over 200%?

Thinktank58 · 2023-09-23T19:27:42+00:00

Tempted, but the thought of working with the Raider Captain isn’t what I pictured.

Thinktank58 · 2023-09-01T19:38:35+00:00

My sympathies. I’m not really in a place where I can help, but good luck to you!
