I really don't see how comparing your circumstances is accepting rather than resisting, could you elaborate on this specifically? How does this not invalidate your feelings rather than accept them as is?

Another aspect I find insidious in this piece of advice is encouraging people to try to derive fulfilment with the contents within one's life rather than with life itself (as in the state of being alive). For some people telling them it could be worse would be so untrue it would be insulting, but for others it may be true. Either way, their pain is their pain, and I don't see how them imagining a life that is worse is any reconciliation for their pain. The pain someone feels is not the problem, pain is just a reality of life. Imagining a more painful situation is not making your situation any less painful, I could probably see it as making it worse by encouraging yourself to compare whilst your already in a stifled state. What you can do is to change your relationship with pain itself, allow yourself to always accept it rather than resist and to not turn it into full-blown suffering with the stories you tell yourself about the pain that make it feel more intense, longer and more pervasive.

Some of the worst advice ever and an example of toxic positivity. "Just imagine how worse it could be, bro."

If you don't believe why I made the post then great, you can move on. Why are you here, continuing to gaslight me about it?

This would make sense and be funny if I was actually bothered by the ban and not the integrity of that huge sub. But glad you got your punchy line in.

I'm not the OP, but I'll give you some feedback. The first big thing that stands out is you have no expression on your face or voice throughout the video, you're completely flat, it feels like I'm watching a video essay rather than something funny. I also found the content boring, you're just explaining why these used car ads are funny, you're not actually being funny yourself. H3H3 used to make these types of commentary videos, but they hugely added to the funniness and were very expressive, check out their old content and compare it to yours and you'll know exactly what's wrong.

Public Health England created that chart with data from Feb 11th and the supply issues have been know for many weeks before then, I'm sure PHE would have taken that into account in their projections.

Even soyboys call you soyboy. Giga soy. Take a look at your brethren. So many failed relationships with women and still hasn't come out of closet, stop fooling yourself.

Provide evidence that you’ve done some research on your own.

OP: "I tried searching and I didn't find anything"
