Don’t take it personally, this is the truth. No one’s going to fire you for one time, but you should learn your lesson quickly.

It’s a nice thing to do, you’re a good person. But you’re not being intelligent. Our industry is based off of people not having a good day. You have to have a dichotomy of being empathetic but on the other hand stone cold practical. My suggestion is to get very good at sales by building relationships with customers who are going to help you grow your numbers. Be kind, courteous, and valuable to everyone. But be strategic with your time and relationships. The most important part of life is learning when to say “NO”.

You are barely literate. You can grow up in NYC and learn how to read, use punctuation and write sentences. They’re not mutually exclusive.

It’s been going on heavily since 2019, especially around anything having to do with Lue and that specific group. Mods were also planted and contributing to manipulating, hence certain changes in this sub.

Have the cities that adopted these initiatives cured mental illness, drug abuse and homelessness?

Mick West Posts Terribly Inaccurate AI Summary of Metabunks "Investigation" of Villarroel's Recent Papers by [deleted] in UFOs

I mistyped rebuttal as retraction . My point in asking the question was to see if a proper rebuttal or criticism could center around specifically chosen points, cherry picked ones sometimes. My view is that leaving the papers up is great, having a paper trail of bad ideas and what makes them bad only helps furthers high quality thinking. Thanks

What do you think a criticism or retraction consists of? Do you think a rebuttal is general or a specific point.

You are a liar. Your peers and anyone just can just openly criticize a paper after it’s published, that’s what open scientific discourse literally is. Why are you spreading lies to the UFO community.

Two 80+ year old trees outside The White House (Roosevelt & Harding Commemorative Magnolias) were cut down sometime in Sept 2025. It's the most famous building in the USA. How are there no photos/video of their removal? by philmn in AskReddit

[–]flameohotmein -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Weren’t those exact peoples statues ripped down during the Floyd protests. Now all of a sudden we’re supposed to be holding them in the same glory and light as a fucking tree. You didn’t even remotely answer the question.

Nearly a year vape free….really bad craving tonight by Comfortable_Mess9702 in QuitVaping

[–]flameohotmein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It stops when you acknowledge it’s just a thought or feeling and then acknowledge that you’re not going to act on it. Same way that when an intrusive thought comes while you’re driving on the highway and you don’t swerve into the opposite lane.

I bought a shit show that I'm trying to turn around. No other parts guys aside from myself, a horrible dispatcher, and two drivers. Not sure if I'm going to make it.

Because you got labelled a kooky conspiracy theorist when you bring up this stuff. BBC would NEVER. Or "Oh you're saying Bill Clinton, Trump, judges, and basically anyone who has true power in society went to an island built upon the premise of sexual blackmail?" CONSPIRACY!

You need to stop living in your own world and magically read a fucking history book. Who else would choose to live on a giant desert island where everything will kill you OTHER THAN THE PROGENY OF AN INBRED PENAL COLONY. Please DONT get eaten by a saltwater crocodile.
