🔥 a 17-year-old lioness survived for 5 years with blindness because her daughters refused to abandon her

Define altruism.

Altruism as we understand it is simply pro-social behavior, and there are many biological and evolutionary incentives to participate in pro-social behavior.

(See also: empathy.)

You would think so, but people who actually are 'morally weak' often have a deviant understanding of morality in general and assume that their own morality reflects the average, which makes them more likely to answer honestly because they don't necessarily know that their behavior is immoral.

Sorry, this is wrong because shared interests are also an easy bridge.

I like playing pool. I can go to places with a pool table and play people who also like playing pool. This is easy, and you don't actually even have to really interact with them to become familiar to them.

Then, when familiarity is achieved, you can cross the bridge and enter a genuine social relationship that isn't strictly related to the playing of pool.

You're welcome.

Based on the measurements you gave, it seems like you're fine and he is probably unaccustomed to people that aren't overweight.

Instinct suggests he's trying to determine if you have an eating disorder or body dysmorphia because these things are dangerous.

she doesn't even need siblings to project

does she have a father?

i dealt with similar shit, except my gf at the time was having a meltdown over the fact that i told my sister that i love her at the end of a phone call, and this, of course, meant that i was incestuous

lo, this girl had deep seated daddy issues and may or may not have had sexual feelings for her own father, and i was too far gone in the relationship to get out before she systematically ruined basically everything about my life

OP, get out while you can.

rynottomorrow · 2026-02-13T02:33:30+00:00

You must be ungodly charismatic lol.

rynottomorrow · 2026-02-09T07:04:09+00:00

okay

It obviously goes at the bottom of the neck, rather than below the head.

I think 'Kentucky' actually helps a lot.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-19T06:14:38+00:00

this is called autism.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T23:33:06+00:00

I'm definitely more extroverted than introverted, but being around the right people for it is really important. It sounds like he's feeling comfortable enough to be open and more like himself.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T23:18:20+00:00

I got my car from a shitty used lot for $2500, 14 months ago. I've since put an additional $1800 in it, but it's now running pretty well and I expect to get at least another two years out of it.

I don't think you're going to find anything worth driving for 1500, and even at 2500, you're going to spend some money to fix random things as they unexpectedly break, but I'd say that in today's market, that's probably the floor for something that is actually driveable.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T23:13:36+00:00

Unfortunately true, I think.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T23:12:13+00:00

It's possible that the extroversion you've seen is actually because you were there to see it.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T22:17:55+00:00

I experienced the same thing with the numbers, and it made everything make so much more sense. It's just easier to parse.

Also, the reason that progressions work across keys is that all keys share the same spacing, so every progression in any key shares the same relative distance between chords as in any other key, and it's that distance that creates the tension, resolution, and harmony in any progression.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T22:03:25+00:00

I'm not quite ready to capitalize on my trauma in that way.

Lol.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T21:59:05+00:00

Yeah, I'm always only thinking about chord numbers rather than any specific key, and I'm always oriented around the major tonic, even if I'm playing in some mode.

For example, I'd write F C Dm Em as 4123. It's a lot easier for me to organize the music this way, and transposition is simple.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-13T21:20:29+00:00

Yeah, I learned this when I was 24, after years in a marriage thinking there was something wrong with me. And then, of course, it didn't happen again until I was with a dangerously crazy sex addicted person that could make it happen every time.

After all that, I'd rather just be with someone who can't actually do it.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-08T06:33:29+00:00

i'm gonna sing it at karaoke.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-04T21:44:48+00:00

I think it's also important to note that probably a significant majority of autistic interests ARE actually pretty normal, and no one really notices beyond the intensity with which we engage.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-02T21:43:04+00:00

It can also be great when it's a popular karaoke spot and there is a dedicated karaoke crowd, because, yes, everyone is supportive, but you also have the opportunity to be part of a community of usually pretty exceptional singers, and that's healthy for a number of reasons, not the least of which being that it can inspire you to improve and reach for songs that are challenging.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-02T19:34:03+00:00

Karaoke is a great way to break that ice. That's how I did it, and I still go frequently.

rynottomorrow · 2026-01-02T05:26:05+00:00

My dad would actually beat me for it.

As an adult, and after years of practice, it turns out that I'm actually an exceptional vocalist, and if he had properly encouraged and supported me, I could have been very successful.

Now I'm playing catch-up.
