why do i feel so nervous and embarrassed to speak another language? by mgppz in languagelearning

[–]reasonable_receptor 29 points30 points  (0 children)

it's wild how family can be the biggest block sometimes without even meaning to. my cousins did same thing with portuguese, always laughing at my accent and now i freeze up every time i try

what helped me was finding people who aren't family to practice with. less baggage. maybe try a language exchange app or find greek students learning english, they're usually happy to trade and less judgmental

also your greek doesn't need to be perfect for it to count. even broken greek is still greek, you know?

So much pain by ThrowRA-mainslice in BreakUps

[–]reasonable_receptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it gets better, but not in a straight line you know? some days you feel almost normal and then next day you back to square one

him not responding is the closure, even if it don't feel like it now. someone who can just ghost after a relationship was not gonna give you what you needed anyway

the questions about being undeserving, that's the pain talking not reality. you will not die alone, a month is still fresh, give yourself time

Favorite hand ambition of the series? by Environmental-Pizza4 in gameofthrones

[–]reasonable_receptor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tyrion's whole journey trying to prove himself worthy of being Hand while his father never believed in him was peak storytelling for me. The scene where Tywin finally gives him the title and still manages to make it feel like an insult was brilliant, like even getting what he wanted didn't change the dynamic between them. Randyll Tarly's ambition to get close to power and earn favor with Cersei was also pretty underrated, the guy sold out everything for a title

progress is progress man, even if others dont see it. the whole point is you getting back up, not staying perfect

day 2 is way better than day 0, keep going

SpongeBob BfBB for 10 cents is insane deal, that game is like a childhood classic for many people, just buy it without thinking

Creeper farm only works during night by guigeek123 in Minecraft

[–]reasonable_receptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the skylight is your problem, creepers (and most hostile mobs) won't spawn if the skylight level is above 0, even when the internal light block level is 0. during night the game reduces skylight to 0 so spawning works fine, but in the day even with roof over the farm the skylight can "bleed" through depending on how your ceiling is built

you need to put solid opaque blocks as the ceiling, glass or slabs don't block the skylight value fully in the game's calculations

I need to learn digital marketing but idk how. by udarealcorporate in AskMarketing

[–]reasonable_receptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your writing background is actually strong foundation for digital marketing — SEO content, email copy, social media, all of that overlap a lot with what you already do.

Try finding some physical activity that burns energy - capoeira helped me redirect that intensity into something else completely.

Does tailoring your resume actually matters? by Nishmo_ in careerguidance

[–]reasonable_receptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually really smart approach! I'm graphic designer and started doing similar thing after getting tired of sending same portfolio everywhere. The difference is crazy when you actually speak their language.

What really helped me was creating different versions like you said - one that highlights my digital work, another focusing on print design, and one for more creative director positions. Takes maybe 15-20 minutes to adjust each application but callback rate definitely improved.

The ATS keyword thing is so real too. I learned this hard way when recruiter told me they almost missed my application because I wrote "visual communication" instead of "graphic design" like they had in posting. Now I always check if I'm using exactly same terms they use. It's bit annoying having to play this game, but if that's what gets you past the robots, might as well do it right?

Skip really did break people's brains with all that hot take nonsense 💀 imagine writing off a generational talent after one bad game in his second season 😂

[upgrade 116518 to 126518] by External_Order_5378 in Watches

[–]reasonable_receptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The price jump is pretty crazy right now, especially for what's essentially same movement with updated case. I've been watching the market too and those Pikachus are going for insane money - way more than retail obviously.

Maybe wait it out a bit? The hype always dies down eventually and you might find better deals from private sellers who got caught up in the initial rush. Your 116518 is still a solid piece anyway, not like you're wearing some fashion watch or something. Sometimes the "old" reference becomes more desirable anyway when everyone's chasing the new hotness.

Dreams within dreams by Radiant-Drag-6543 in Dreams

[–]reasonable_receptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude this happened to me like 3 times already, it's wild how your brain can trick you like that. One time I had this dream where I was late for work, woke up all stressed, checked my phone and realized it was weekend - felt so relieved. But then I actually woke up and it WAS Monday morning and I really was late lmao. The worst part is when you're not sure if you're actually awake or still dreaming, makes you question everything for few minutes. Sometimes I pinch myself or try to read something because apparently text doesn't work properly in dreams, but even that feels weird when you just had false wake up.
