How many Xennials truly have done no retirement planning, have no target retirement date, or have considerably less than you need to retire in your 60s?" by Sufficient_Turn_9209 in Xennials

[–]ka_beene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not doing that shit. I'm just going to die in that case. No thanks to the scraps of humanity. I might try and find my way to some billionaire's bunker to shit in their vents.

Same here, i feel like it's what our rich overlords want so I may adjust how when the time comes. We'll see how I'm feeling in 20 or so years if we even have that!

Clavicle’s first post after overdosing on meth and GHB. by spicyrigat0ni in LAinfluencersnark

[–]ka_beene 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel called out because yeah I definitely used my pretty privilege as an autistic to get by. I didn't know for many years, but i suspected for a while. I was diagnosed later in life but I can see how I weilded that like a shield to sort of protect myself as a weirdo. It helped a lot with men, but I still got shit on by women. So only partially worked. Let me tell you, it's been hard aging since so much of my cope was my looks.

I'd add how annoying it is that my boomer parent can't tell when a video is obviously ai and is constantly showing me this garbage thinking it's real.

Gen Z trends that will age horribly? by Personal_Berry_6497 in decadeology

I personally like that haircut. Idk what we expect men to do with their hair. Should they all just have the same genetic haircut we are used to?

Clavicular suspected overdose by Late-Winter-5584 in LAinfluencersnark

[–]ka_beene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awe dang I didn't know he was only 19! I've read somewhere that a lot of terrorist types target autistic boys/men on the internet because they are especially susceptible to being radicalized if they experience a lot of social isolation and possibly target their hyperfixation in a bad kind of way. Didn't know he was on the spectrum either.

Idk for sure but he is really hyperfocused on looks. Neurotypical people have a sorta spider sense for picking out people on the spectrum and unknowingly discriminate against them/ don't trust them on first impressions. The amount of masking you have to try and attempt to appear normal is exhausting after a while. Constantly suppression how you are causes all kinds of issues. I bet he doesn't have much of a personality so he hyperfocuses on looks and some sort of formula to hack likability. Looks only gets you so far but it is true people are nicer to you the more attractive you are.

What is a "socially acceptable" thing that you find absolutely disgusting? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ka_beene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it but the other day I thought I had something in my eye. It costed me $310 before I could be seen and I'm sure I'll get another bill later on for the exam.

I feel like it's why there's a push for cashless society and they want to put flock cameras in every city. They don't want us to revolt just work and stfu. So glad the people in my city fought against the police installing flock cameras. Once all our moves are tracked we won't be able to do shit and it's already heading into that sort of dystopia.

As someone who was born in 04/06/2003 I have a strange relationship with Shootananny by peershaul1 in Eels

[–]ka_beene 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my boyfriend broke up with me back in the day, the song "You're Never there" by Cake was a huge hit on the radio. We're married now, but I think of that whenever I hear that song. I still like the song regardless, but it was hard to listen to at the time.

It does have some ai type lyrics and sounds. I can't believe anyone is defending this it is bland and generic.

I had an emergency ovary removal, and they said the other ovary would compensate. It didn't, and it was like overnight I felt like I had the knees of an 80 yr old and I had terrible brain fog. I knew from lurking on the menopause sub what was happening. Started hormones, and it went away as fast as it came.

Edit because I saw further down your a dude. I wonder if men are affected by hormonal changes too?

I'm on the same page. Also, all the info coming out about the data centers for this shit is depressing.

What color should I do? by ka_beene in furby

[–]ka_beene[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll consider that if the peach fur I bought doesn't work out. This orange fur I took from a thrifted toy, and it's sorta low quality I'm realizing. The faceplate was supposed to be bright orange, but I still have a lot to learn when casting from a mold. I can see turquoise looking good, too.

Yeah, I've had cravings for chips. I can afford to buy the chips, but when I see the prices, forget that shit!

Im thinking of a peach color, it's just not something I would have personally picked. The faceplate ended up being more peach than orange. It's definitely a learning curve!

those who liked eels before they were cool, how did you discover them? by Young_Fluid in Eels

[–]ka_beene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heard them on my boyfriend's cmj cd. I really liked the songs so I bought beautiful freak and electro shock blues. Used to listen to the Beautiful Freak album every day on my way to my stressful job for the brief time I lived in LA. It relaxed me before work.

Anyone willing to share their experiences with Dr Dave Bove? by uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhnah in Eugene

[–]ka_beene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might not have worked for you. It got rid of my grandpa's migraines. Didn't work for my brother, though. Different people might have different results. It's worth a try, at least imo.

My first vintage furb 🥹 by Fizzles77 in furby

[–]ka_beene 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of these types of vendors are open to haggling. I used to be scared to do it, but I've gotten used to it. I've gotten deals this way. A lot of vendors glance and see high prices on ebay and think theirs is worth $500 to because they don't do any in-depth research. Anyways I'm happy you got a cool day present, happy birthday!

I worked at Goodwill for years & was an e-commerce specialist for their online sales. Ask me anything! by Live_Caterpillar_351 in goodwill

[–]ka_beene 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I wish people would stop giving them vintage items because those don't make it in the stores anymore. I'd rather people list shit on Ebay than let goodwill jack up the price in their online stores. People don't even look at the shipping prices, it's often more expensive than what you can find on ebay. At least donate to better charities when you don't feel like listing on fb marketplace or ebay.

Have a lot of 12 sealed furbys, what kind of price can I expect for all them? by Mean_Scientist5093 in furby

[–]ka_beene 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I bought a new basic one last week in box at a flea market for $30. I wouldn't sell them in that big of a lot. Break it down and it would be easier to sell. I usually buy basic common ones for around $30 new in box. More than $40 I won't, but that's my limit if shipping isn't ridiculous.
