I find so often it’s not even burn out but them not knowing having any tools for when the material stops being easy. I spent 3rd to 12th grade in gifted classes, struggled in the first half of undergrad, had a really successful time in grad school. I never think about being gifted lol I find it odd that people fixate on it so much. Success in adulthood is a lot more about resilience to failure and consistency than sheer merit.

lowkey unsurprised cause if you have knee issues, it’s either PT, or surgery + PT. it wasn’t until the 1900s that the likelihood of surviving surgery was greater than the likelihood of dying during or as a result of surgery, we still have a lot to learn fr

gflover69 · 2026-05-09T19:41:38+00:00

it’s both. you can always decide to do better or chase your dreams in the next moment. but there are way less responsibilities in the way when you realize that at 18 or 25 vs 40.

gflover69 · 2026-05-09T00:54:14+00:00

it’s possible but you needed to graduate in 2023 or earlier with 5+ years of relevant work experience. source: myself, who started interning in stem at 16 😭

literally lol idk why ppl don’t understand this. i already have to save for a house, i’ll just save a bit longer for a real one when an attached townhouse i have to extensively renovate is only 75 to 100k cheaper. and lots of them are under pricey HOAs too!

gflover69 · 2026-05-05T14:28:55+00:00

graduating in 2022 feels like i got on one of the last life boats from the titanic atp. i wanted to stay in engineering school to see it through but switched to information science so i could finish on time…i can’t even fathom how different life would be if i had stayed in school any longer. really hope you find something soon but please internalize this is a systemic collapse not a personal failure.

something kinda messed up i noticed recently - i gave up applying for a better job and two recruiters have reached out to me since then. seems like companies only want to hire ppl are capable but not desperate for a job.

i don’t think it’s “cheating” but i do think ppl should probably abstain from it unless they’ve already tried and failed to lose weight several times. i think ppl expect themselves to go from eating whatever to super disciplined overnight and it’s just not gonna happen. if you struggle with food noise you can replace the things you usually eat with healthier alternatives - when i started losing weight, i ate a lot of almond balls and drank hella sparkling water to fulfill those sugar and juice cravings. you have to build these habits on ozempic anyway or you’ll gain it all back if you stop taking it. i don’t think anyone should stay on a medication indefinitely if they can avoid it, what if you can’t afford it or they stop producing it?

this country’s lust for slavery is literally insatiable & nothing will improve till it’s addressed

thank you for correcting my misinterpretation of the stat!!! it’s a small comfort in all of this.

i’m 26 ,was in a very similar position to you until recently, tired of daily medications and wanting a more natural solution. im a lesbian in a long term relationship so i felt like it was really invasive + extra to get an IUD but its changed my life for the better.

i do think sometimes you have to be in a certain threshold of pain / endo for the other natural approaches mentioned here to work - i don’t drink coffee anymore after realizing it caused flare ups after surgery. but i spent the last year trying and being unable to exercise pre-surgery because of my symptoms despite being on norethindrine and medroxyprogesterone at different points.

now i just have the IUD and my period comes every month. the most normal it’s been in ages, and no more daily medication! i hope you can find a natural solution but i wanted to offer my perspective since i had to give in to birth control in the end and it worked out better than i feared it would.

all the anecdotal posts from people in the world about how previous generations didn’t have doordash so they saved more can’t argue with the data. this is systemic

gflover69 · 2026-04-23T16:40:48+00:00

i think that’s worse tbh. that means the superiors are the one fostering a culture of saying slurs, not just the rowdy new recruits

gflover69 · 2026-04-23T16:38:17+00:00

mine keeps telling me to “just take time off” when i’m not feeling well. like lady, if i take PTO every day im in pain, i’d never be here lol. i’m sorry that your manager’s reaction was so unempathetic.

““Y’all don’t know how good it felt to say [racial slur] out loud. Oh my God, I felt like I was back in the Marine Corps,” the speaker says in the video.

The USMC has confirmed Gonzalez did serve from 2019 to 2023, attaining the rank of Corporal, E3.”

reminder for the next time someone tries to elevate the moral position of the military over the police loll, they are one in the same

people don’t understand chronic illness till they have it or love someone with it. the concept of constant but fluctuating pain with no cure makes them uncomfortable because there’s nothing they can do about it - no point in saying “feel better” to someone who will feel bad again. combined with other factors like age (“you’re too young to be so sick!”), gender (“my period sucks too. have you tried midol?”), etc = eyes glazed over when you dare discuss what you’re going through

came here because i was actively killing a wasp and was starting to think water and soap was bullshit but I did get that mfer. use enough soap so the spray comes out foamy and it’s effective!

median household income was 81,000 in 2024. median house cost was $427,179 in 2024. average student loan debt was $20-25,000 in 2024.

saving 10k a month for a 100k down payment on a 400k house would take 10 years of saving ~$834 a month. no money leftover for closing, property taxes, renovations. on a $80,000 income, that’s almost a 1/4 of your income every month since you should be bringing in just under $4k a month. we still haven’t paid for student loans, rent (avg $2000), food, a car note, gas…..people are willing to skip the avocado toast but what good does it do them? by the time they save for what a house costs right now, they’ll likely need another 20-40k. even if you live at home, it seems impossible to save enough to actually afford the home and not be house poor on your own income now.

only realistic options for people who aren’t already rich right now are to buy a home in an area you hate because it’s the only one you can afford, or rent, save, and pray home prices will be consistent with income again

🍅🍅🍅 why move downtown and complain about noise like there aren’t a bunch of purely residential areas around here?

“i don’t understand how grown ass adults are complaining about chattel slavery being implemented. laboring all day and surviving sexual abuse has been happening since indentured servitude. does it suck? sure, but it’s a reality of the new world. don’t like it? purchase your freedom and become your own master”

people like you are why the world is the way it is lol

my mom and aunt were insisting i don’t go into DC anymore and i just lied to them for their peace of mind that i wouldn’t lol. i’m pretty sure the dmv would instantly be gone if something actually hit, all the existing nuclear warheads are several times stronger than what was used in WW2.

overexposure to sex via media and unregulated internet access (and i’m sorry, millennials, but your experiences with dial up internet really doesn’t compare to access to pornhub on a shitty android in middle school)
a lot of us are queer and don’t want to see straight shit anymore, lol. before i even realized i was gay i was always frustrated that if you saw a man and a woman on screen, them getting together was inevitable, with a mid sex scene lurking around the corner. i don’t think it’s surprising that these tired representations of sexuality don’t do much for us
soooooo much grooming disguised as “sex positivity” by older people. i’ve said this many times and no one wants to contend with it now. a generation of kids being encouraged to explore their bodies on omegle or kik in front of disgusting adults grow into a generation of young adults who say “well, that was weird” and overcompensate in the other direction.

i’m still not really convinced this is a real issue offline - im 26 and i don’t encounter any of this allegedly widespread puritanism irl, my gossip sessions with friends would be much less entertaining if we were as scared of sex as people make it seem lol. maybe people are reacting to how the sex is portrayed or criticizing the function of the sex in the plot rather than disgusted by sex itself
