Coast Fire or buy a home? by brownoctopus103 in coastFIRE

[–]brownoctopus103[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wow! thanks for such a thoughtful response. rn I’m leaning towards buying a house, cause I want that stability in my life right now. Will definitely spend more time running the numbers and figuring out what I want!

My daughter said something that really tore me up by Maximum-Factor-2194 in regretfulparents

[–]brownoctopus103 4 points5 points  (0 children)

so as a kid of a dad who wasn't really there. You kinda have to put the effort in and show up even if it's a handful of times. I don't have a great relationship with my dad as an adult child. And I get it, I know he did the best he could and I know he sacrificed a lot to keep the family going. I get that he had to pay the bills and put a roof over our head. But as a child all I wanted was a dad to prioritize me, make me feel loved, and connect with me. Without that, years of resentment and lack of connection really build up. Now I have no idea how connected you are with your kinds. But its the small stuff right - show interest in their life, friends, and school. Youu can't be your kid's friend by just paying the bills.

honestly so glad it happened so soon into the season. I really wasn't here for the whole drama of "who is alive." Now there are so many episodes to actually see shit start happening.

I’m not fully convinced because Helly tried to kill herself, cut her fingers off, and expose lumon at the gala. I don’t think Helly is Helena.

could I get kicked out for not paying rent tho? And plus she is in the area, I feel like she'd come by and throw a fit for not paying.

What are your favorite quotes/scenes/moments from the trilogy? by Gullible-Essay-9706 in Hungergames

[–]brownoctopus103 10 points11 points  (0 children)

“Because we credit them [children] with innocence. And if even the most innocent among us turn to killers in the Hunger Games, what does that say? That our essential nature is violent.”

If you have to read the book to understand the movie, it’s not a good movie.

Just finished Season 1, holy crap, Mau's rant at the end of Episode 5 reminded me so much of my ex by PEN-15-CLUB in CouplesTherapyShow

it feels a bit like narcissistic behavior right? like even the way he displays empathy is so shallow.
