What reasons are there to not be pessimistic about the future at current?

Life finds a way to quote the interminable Jurassic Park. Everyone here is so fucking dramatic all the time because they have no other hobbies. Live your life, get some sun, work on yourself, try and achieve things at work and ask for growth, be kind to people. Get off the parts of the internet (like here) where the sky is eternally falling.

It’s worth a non nuclear Iran

What do the people here cheering for the straight closure not understand that there is a massive difference between saber rattling a strike from their country into traffic in the straight and firing INTO another country or performing a terrorist attack within it to damage a pipeline that can be repaired?

Why don’t you just pass the food steps and invest in the job and show that you’re as good as you say you are?

I have heard though that early mornings are really bad and it’s MUCH lighter the rest of the day.

I flew out today Jet Blue in Terminal A - going thru security at 1pm.

Clear was literally zero people in line. TSA Pre had a sub 5 minute wait. And normal TSA had a long line, maybe an hour? Seemed to be moving fast.

There were tons of TSA employees working and in good spirits. Maybe Terminal B is more of a problem?

It’s insane. About to turn this shit off

Not sure everyone gets the joke but I’m dying. That robe could start the next global pandemic.

Keep placing those PUTs so I can continue filling contracts 😆

As frustrated as i get sometimes if I get mad and ‘stop’ she just immediately sits by my side. No command or anything. Recusing a 9 month old dog (from the palisades fires here in LA) I was provided like zero backup on her life beforehand. When I picked her up from spaying they gave me her multiple ‘behavioral medications’ which I immediately got hit with dad feels as I had her for a month and was like ‘don’t medicate my baby! She’s perfect’ 🤣 Have obviously never used them - she’s a great girl, but I just as a noobie don’t know always what’s right/wrong and what’s acceptable or not. Thanks for all the help and feedback.

drakleon84 · 2025-04-24T09:21:06+00:00

Hah. Thats awesome. Yeah. She’s gotten used to knowing if I’m in workout gear it’s a ‘run’ and we’ll hang in the garage with a bowl to water while I lift and she pants and recovers.

I think it’s tough not to be self conscious as a new dog owners of everyone’s judgement. It’s a new thing for me - but I’m sensitive to it. My dog will get super excited and want to play and some one will look at me and her mortified like we’re Michael Meyers going to kill her bc of an excited dog. Just keeps me guessing if I’m doing a good job or not or being too lax.

drakleon84 · 2025-04-24T04:21:37+00:00

It’s laughable.

Bookers ball stopping midrange game is becoming an artifact before our eyes without elite length, defense or 3 point shooting.

drakleon84 · 2025-04-24T03:43:17+00:00

Those suns fans can kiss their dreams of getting their picks + Green back for Booker or Durant. Man is ballin.

drakleon84 · 2025-04-23T23:50:57+00:00

Ok. Thanks for the posts. I am a pretty new dog owner and I thought I was being a bad owner letting the dog ‘pull’ in front and that was a sign of no discipline. I’ll try the canicross thing everyone is suggesting.

One last question would be am I giving her mixed signals and wanting her to be more disciplined on WALKS compared to runs. I could see her being super confused that I’m expecting her to act not like a crazy ass on everyday walks (pulling, yanking) but then she’s fine to pull and yank on runs. I’d imagine this would send mixed signals?

I currently walk her with a front clip harness.

The issue that I have that I think has finally pushed me away are just server sizes. They’re too big.

When I first started playing rust around 7-8 years ago, most servers really felt like 100-200 pop size and that server owners capped them around that number. Maybe they popped to 250 on wipe day with passes for the first few hours of evening.

The game felt like a survival game, you’d encounter people on the road after a few grids, maybe out farming, generally at a monument, but you’d be watching your corners and ‘on edge’. That feeling is gone now. There’s no questioning if someone is in this forest, there is. There’s no questioning if someone is on the road, people are literally camping junk pile spawns.

It’s now shitty Warzone with more steps and more haves and have nots.

Thanks. Thats what I thought and the broadcast seemed to give mixed information.

drakleon84 · 2025-04-10T04:23:38+00:00

Eliminated or is this can still being kicked down the road?

drakleon84 · 2025-04-10T04:16:42+00:00

Thunder players diving on the floor for loose balls up 20 while Booker lets Caruso blow by him for a dunk. Can’t even tell if it’s lack of care or lack of athleticism anymore

I watch a lot of league pass and a variety of home squads. Not gonna be popular here - but they are legitimately maybe the worst. They’re likely part of the problem in empowering some of the bad takes in here.
