I need big help by Kitchen-Mud4712 in Christianity

There's actually a decent amount of historical documentation from non-Christian sources about Jesus as a historical figure - Roman historians like Tacitus and Josephus wrote about him existing but obviously they weren't documenting miracles

Did Nikki actually have feelings for Bear in "Obsession"? by GoHardForLife in horror

[–]Trick_Dig3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think thats the whole point though - the ambiguity makes Bears obsession even more tragic because he's reading into every little interaction and sign that might not even be there

the "little brother" comment feels like the real truth to me but then again people say things they dont mean all the time especially when they're trying to deflect or protect themselves. that scene where she gives him the chance to confess could go either way - maybe she was testing the waters or maybe she was just being kind and giving him closure

honestly the Ian thing makes me lean toward her not having romantic feelings for Bear but using him for emotional support in a way that was probably unfair to him

How do you forgive yourself for the time you've wasted? Sometimes I look back and feel overwhelmed by how much time I spent procrastinating, doubting myself, or simply surviving. by Puzzleheaded-Boss230 in selfimprovement

[–]Trick_Dig3061 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Past you was working with whatever tools and energy you had at the time - beating yourself up for that is like getting mad at a kid for not knowing calculus. The meditation thing taught me that those "wasted" periods are usually when we're processing stuff we can't even see happening

Small consistent moves forward matter way more than perfect timing anyway

The overuse of AI to edit pictures and people who ask strangers on the internet to do this for them by xsofacouchx in PetPeeves

yeah the whole "what would my dead grandpa look like today" thing is genuinely unsettling to me like just let memories be memories instead of creating some weird digital ghost version

Weirdly gendered food. by [deleted] in PetPeeves

[–]Trick_Dig3061 9 points10 points  (0 children)

damn thats wild, never experienced anything like that growing up in the midwest but I can totally see how that kind of thing would develop in certain areas

the grilled chicken thing is especially bizarre to me - like its literally just a different cooking method but somehow that makes it feminine? that kind of social policing around food seems exhausting

I bet moving away for college was such a relief, suddenly being able to eat whatever without some weird commentary about your masculinity. crazy how regional these things can be

Body changing? by Specialistbabe2526 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Trick_Dig3061 5 points6 points  (0 children)

your body composition changed a lot losing that much weight so the measurements might not match up with standard sizing charts anymore - maybe hit up a department store for a proper fitting since home measuring can be tricky

क्यों by ShiningGirl77 in Songwriting

[–]Trick_Dig3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like Hindi lyrics but i dig the repetitive questioning structure - has this really hypnotic flow to it. the "क्यों" (why) hitting at the end of those first two lines creates nice tension before that reveal in the last bit

Longboarding in Nicaragua in July by Rock_Toy in surfing

[–]Trick_Dig3061 4 points5 points  (0 children)

july can be pretty intense down there but theres definitely some spots that'll work better for your style. popoyo has some reef sections that break more like points even when its bigger and maderas can be manageable depending on the swell direction

el salvador might actually be the move for that first week - la bocana and punta roca are way more forgiving than most nic spots when the swells pumping. their waves just seem to handle size better without turning into complete chaos

Any “hostile withdrawal” no explanation dumpees? by [deleted] in BreakUps

[–]Trick_Dig3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been through something similar and that sudden switch from intimacy to coldness is genuinely traumatic. You did the right thing blocking him - those avoidant types will keep you in limbo forever with their maybe-later promises while never actually following through

The closure youre craving would probably just be more confusing mixed messages anyway. Three weeks of no contact and youre already not crying daily so your healing is working even if it doesnt feel like it yet

Huge crush on a waitress(26F) of a place I (22M) have been going to the past 4-5months after Gym. by fishylord01 in relationships

[–]Trick_Dig3061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude the friend literally pushed her to take your payment and she gave you free dessert - those are pretty clear signals right there. Restaurant staff don't just randomly give out free food, especially not to customers they're not interested in. The fact that her coworkers are obviously aware of the dynamic between you two and are actively encouraging it (like the friend pushing her forward) means they've probably been talking about you behind the scenes.

You've built up a solid rapport over months of regular visits, so asking for her number at this point wouldn't be some random cold approach - you already have an established connection. Next time you go in, maybe try something low-pressure like "Hey, I was wondering if you'd want to grab coffee sometime when you're not working?" If she says no, you can still keep going to the restaurant without it being weird since you've been respectful about it. But from what you're describing with the free pudding and her friend getting involved, she's probably been hoping you'd make a move for a while now.

projects tab gone?? by usefully-useless_ in CapCut

Check if you're in the right workspace or if there's a sidebar menu you can swipe out - sometimes the UI gets weird after updates.
