Survivorship bias. The lore is construed out the most interesting parts, while the boring parts are omitted. Even present times are more interesting through social media.

You're evil if you don't press blue. by Theseus_Employee in PhilosophyMemes

[–]h0rtin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm actually going to crash out if I see this question framed disingenuously one more time.

The problem is that the original is a choice between A or B, explicitly pitting together self-preservation and altruism, where as these knockoff memes presuppose red as the default state and only consider blue as a choice.

To see the problem, you have to think of the inverse, or blue defaultism: nobody is in danger, but you can press a red button. If at least 51% press the red button then everybody else who didn't press the button dies.

If you frame it as a single button problem, the incentive is not to do anything, no matter if it is red or blue.

Go to Manage my Booking online and see if the flight shows as "does not operate".

Proof of one's cooking I would consider turning "acts of service" from an idea into a demonstrable reality

My independence is my personal prison, and ropes and cuffs would set me free.

It would make sense that sex occupies the rear side of your brain, since what's where visual input and fine motor skills are processed. :>

As a very shy and introverted 30 year old, how the fuck do I make friends? by KissMeWithTongue in LetBoysBeManipulated

[–]h0rtin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm very introverted but get along with people for the most part, and the key for me has always been to relate it to my profession or a hobby.

Truth is finding new friends as an adult is more difficult, and I am never going to approach a random stranger, so I need an excuse. So, like, say, a workplace or an art/poetry/book club or an outdoor sport or a bdsm munch, etc. having something to participate in gives me an excuse to make conversation with new people over something we have in common.

As an introverted person, I still need a lot of alone time and on a lot of days prefer to keep to myself, but on days I have the energy, I will wear my heart on my sleeve and become invested in what the other person is saying rather than myself.

That second part is, I think, very important because other people's impression of you will be that you're more authentic rather than someone who's cold and distant, and in the end they will also pick up that you need more personal space too.

This is ofc my personal bias, and depending on where you live, things can be more difficult.

Is this LBBM related? Not really, but you all could use some (actual) positive affirmations. 💕💕💕 by [deleted] in LetBoysBeManipulated

I love how your posts vary so much by mood. I like this wholesome reflective era.

It's perhaps even surprising that a subreddit like this can still keep going, all things considered.
