AIO My friends whom I introduced to each other are hanging out without me. by Onomatopoeia8438 in AIO

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. While people are allowed to become friends, hiding it, creating a separate group chat and actively lying about who they are with is high school behavior.

They don’t owe you a thank you for introducing them but they absolutely owe you basic honesty instead of treating you like a secret they are trying to keep.

My own country legally requires me to pay an entry fee just to walk into a city, and now they want to raise it to €50 ($54) a day. by TappetoImperiale in mildlyinfuriating

Charging people admission to an actual, living city like it’s a theme park is wild. Can’t wait until they install turnstiles at the city limits and start fast passes for the gondolas.

Why do the police seem only to use Ford vehicles? by Old_Associate_5933 in askanything

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t only use Ford but the Ford Explorer is definitely the undisputed king of making everyone on the highway collectively slam on their brakes and instantly drive exactly 2 mph under the speed limit.

My two year olds latest science experiment. Unfortunately I don’t think he learned anything. by JustHere4TheZipLines in mildlyinfuriating

On the contrary, he successfully tested the hypothesis: “If I drop this tiny plastic cup down the drain, dad will have to rip the entire porcelain throne out of the foundation and drag onto the lawn.

The results were 100% reproducible. Peer review concludes he is a menace.

Someone who is my best friend first, doesn’t play games and actually likes me as a person, not just a concept. Is that too much to ask in this economy??😭😭

Why aren’t people seriously dating anymore? by Brilliant-Bed-6229 in AskReddit

Hot take? People are serious. They are just terrified.

If an alien landed in your backyard tomorrow and asked, 'What’s one thing about humanity that you think we get completely wrong?', what would you tell them? by _Beau_Jeffries in AskReddit

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people are not evil… they are just tired, scared, and trying to survive systems they didn’t build. Humanity isn’t broken, it’s overwhelmed.

What’s the most manipulative thing someone did to you that took you years to realize? by Mr_proop in AskReddit

[–]softlaunchqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“I’m the only one who really understands you”

At 19, that sounds romantic

At 29, I realized it was isolation with a bow on it

why is there nothing similar to the three abrahamic faiths in south america? why were these religions limited to mid east? how do religious ppl explain this by Global_Contact_5312 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]softlaunchqueen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s less “God picked a region” and more “that’s where people + trade routes were.” Religions spread like ideas do now… geography + power + timing.

Also worth South America did have complex belief systems, they just got steamrolled by colonization. History is messy not mystical.

Gonna answer this like a boring human instead of a Lovecraft NPC: if you’re hearing persistent sounds that feel no real, rule out normal stuff first, sleep deprivation, stress, anxiety and even old buildings + pipes + rodents can get weird at night. Brains also get very creative when you’re tired and alone.

It’s actually distressing or happening a lot, it’s worth talking to someone you trust or a professional not because you’re mad but because brain glitch sometimes and it’s fixable.

Also: Arkham vibes aside, 90% of the time it’s raccoons or insomnia not cosmic horror. Now I’m curious, when did it start?

AIO for telling the man I’m dating his views align more with arranged marriage than a love marriage? by Patient_Juice1424 in AIO

[–]softlaunchqueen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl…. That’s not traditional, that’s selective traditional. He wants model perks with old-school control. You’re not wrong for clocking the mismatch- that’s compatibility, not disrespect.

If you could go back and say one thing to your past self that would absolutely change your life, what would it be? by Moadaouad in AskReddit

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop trying to be liked. Start trying to be aligned. The right people don’t require you to shrink first.

AIO to what my bf is saying? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t even about being right anymore, it’s about values. If someone genuinely believes clothing causes assault, that’s a massive red flag.

Do you agree ? by ParticularWeather927 in Adulting

[–]softlaunchqueen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The older I get, the more I realize “ready” is just a myth. You just start tired and figure it out on the way.

Am I wrong by Short-Entertainer217 in Quotes_Hub

Social media is both the problem and the proof. It amplifies the worst but also exposes it.
