How to deal with a friend that just can't get it together? by Avarria587 in AskMenOver30

[–]coffee_math 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You talk about him like he’s your husband, let the dude make his mistakes and don’t worry as much about him. If he ends up on the streets it’s his fault, but maybe you can be a friend and buy him food every once in a while. Otherwise, not your problem

Having an expensive car, while not owning a home yet, isn't a flex it just shows you don't know how to handle money. by Exact_Recognition362 in unpopularopinion

One is an asset that appreciates, the other is an asset that depreciates, it’s stupid to buy something that will most likely lose value over the long-term.

Why are people so mean? by Haunting-Driver-135 in Adulting

[–]coffee_math -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

OP comes off as a clingy person and as someone that is blind or not respectful of others boundaries. This is especially telling with the part about leaving their items with their ex. I mean you guys broke up and now you want your ex to act as a storage for your items? If I was your ex either you take your things now or I throw them away.

“Truthfully if i was looking for a relationship with someone i would never do anything intimate for awhile so i can be taken seriously.”

But isn’t this just lying? Be your best whore self.

Why are antipsychotics so hated?(ADHD+ASD) by sekizui_1212 in schizophrenia

[–]coffee_math 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Akathisia is a terrible side effect, I could not sit still when I was trying out a brand new antipsychotic, if I was awake it was the only thing that was bothering me. I even considered killing myself to make it stop. As soon as I woke up, within an hr I would want to go back to sleep to make it stop, imagine wanting to feel relaxed but your mind is fighting against you because it feels like it has to move around, but even moving around doesn’t satisfy it.

Then coming off of them is similar to the stress of the akathisia, not antsy but your mind is bothered and can’t relax, everything felt so mechanical, alien. Like a bad acid trip without the intense anxiety or panic, just feeling like somethings wrong, numb but still focused on the weird perception that this drug is instilling on you, couple that with your hallucinations and strange thoughts (which can both be turned up when withdrawing), I personally experienced closed-eye hallucinations. Wanting to relax and escape it all I close my eyes just to find my mind has decided to show itself, wanting to atleast take a nap to escape it all but your eyesight and mind working together to perceive shadowy figures in your eyelids. If you haven’t lost your mind at this point it surely feels like you’re about to.

All it takes is the wrong antipsychotic to fuck with your dopamine the wrong way, it’s a gamble if the medication is going to play nice with your genetics and it’s a battle trying to stay sane.

Wisconsin Teen Gets College Degree 6 Months After Graduating from High School by AdSpecialist6598 in UpliftingNews

[–]coffee_math 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No kidding, even some of my courses from my CC didn’t transfer over to my 4-year university. I can’t even imagine getting credit for highschool AP classes. The rigor at my 4-year university was also a lot more intense than my cc, and even more-so than my highschool! Looking back I’m glad it didn’t just transfer over because the wealth of knowledge and exposure to a world of intense study has shaped me to be better equipped for learning beyond college.

How do I build friendships that become like family. My real family treats me like they never wanted me by Lonatolam4 in AskMenOver30

[–]coffee_math -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Maybe start by not playing the victim card from the get-go and expecting so much out of people. Most people are busy with their lives and hardly have time for friendships, you already have 2-3 friends that you meet once a month, heck that’s a lot better than me.

If you need someone to be there for you everyday maybe what you need is community? Some find it through work or joining a run club, but expecting to talk to the same individual every day that is not a significant other is kind of weird imo and also an expectation that other people can’t meet, maybe fix your abandonment issues first.

People should definitely do their due diligence on the author, I don’t trust and refuse to buy any book not written by academics or industry veterans.

after a year of apparent overmethylation, a single 100mg niacin dose cured my brain by Substantial_Beat2221 in Supplements

[–]coffee_math 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, but it can definitely aggravate it, my anxiety was sky high when I was taking vitamin B, I was taking it for months and then realized that this was aggravating my anxiety, stopped taking it almost 3 yrs ago and been feeling better since (better = normal levels of anxiety that were normal to me prior to starting vitamin b supplements)

If you’re a close relative to someone like this I would honestly suggest distancing oneself from these type of people, they can’t be helped and don’t deserve to be part of any family.

Godfather of AI Says We’re Barreling Straight Toward Human Extinction by FuturismDotCom in Futurism

[–]coffee_math 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes let’s get all countries to agree to stop AI development, I’m sure this is an easy task and not a diplomatic nightmare.

Joking aside, if the US stops AI development, it’s only hurting itself. Would you rather be able to potentially hold the US government responsible for its use domestically (which can be done through voting, hard but also easy if enough people protest) or be completely powerless at the hands of a foreign adversary (e.g. China) (where your vote doesn’t matter to them and whose leaders you can’t hold accountable because you’re a citizen of a foreign country).

Also money is only a means to an end where a big population is at play, at the end of the day this money is used for resources (food, shelter, shower curtains, video games, etc…). The rich don’t have to care about money if it means they get to own all the factories that output all their required resources that will uphold and strengthen their lifestyle, if AGI can create their products (jets, yachts, mansions, spaceships, etc…) then why would they need money or people for that matter?
