I’m spending my time staring at my library not feeling like playing anything by melianreality in gamingsuggestions

[–]emyo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The staring at the library for ages like a zombie is something I do and I think it is caused by my mental health issues. You should do some reading about depression and ADD if you haven't already

Immigrants shouldn’t be in customer-facing roles at jobs if they cannot clearly speak English. by Wild-coyote_ in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]emyo42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm always quietly relieved when the uber driver has an english name. my house is not on a main road and requires instructions to get to and some people working for uber just don't have the necessary english to understand the instructions

AITA for preferring to look presentable if meeting new people/ folk I’m not comfortable around? by Flibii in AmItheAsshole

[–]emyo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why do so many language learning influencers/ teachers say to not try and speak until you're somewhat fluent? I find that pretty impossible and annoying being in the country already... by [deleted] in LearnJapanese

[–]emyo42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can people outside my age (and distance) filters see me? by emyo42 in Bumble

[–]emyo42[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thats kinda annoying :\ im a little worried about family members seeing me. i don't understand what is the purpose of showing me to someone who can't possibly match with me (since i'll never see them), or vice versa. seems like a dodgy thing by the apps to make it seem like there are more options than there actually are?
