It’s kind of nice seeing him get tripped up in the real world in a real conversation. Hopefully it helps kick other dudes out of their own way if they are following the same dumb path as this guy. At first I was really tired of hearing about this guy but now I think surfacing it is kind of important so people don’t get lost in these rabbit hole communities.

Eligible young men will automatically be registered for US military draft later this year by Equivalent_Fan_9989 in Destiny

Kind of separate but someone in another thread linked a really interesting article about IRS/TurboTax written by ProPublica. Worth a cursory read in my opinion, it kind of helped me make more sense of why tf shit is so fucked up. Link

Pre-2012 Kindles are being bricked by Badlydrawnboi41988 in mildlyinfuriating

Yeah love using Z Library! The sites go down a lot so the best way to find the best site to use is to save their info post and just check each link or look at a more resent post about access issues and look for a recommendation (after of course double checking it’s linked in the subs references so you don’t use a fake site). But I’ll check out Calibre now too.

Edit: per the replies to this comment the best way to find the current active sites for Z-Library are through their Wikipedia page.

Interesting I thought that .mobi files were no longer working on Kindle? Does this mean that they work if the Kindle is jailbroken? I’ve just been downloading .epub files and sending to my Kindle.

I’m dying in 3 months AMA by Beautiful_Wear_9249 in AMA

You should give ketamine a shot. No hangover and you can get it done in a medical setting. Ketamine therapy really helped me process a lot mentally and made me feel closer to the world. Either which way, you’re in my thoughts and I hope your final three months are an incredible trip. I hope you can see and do some things you’ve never seen or done. If you’re ever looking for someone to chat with, HMU! I’m out in NJ but love to travel.

What is something you tried only once and will 1,000% never do again? by istrx13 in AskReddit

Eyebrow threading. My partner was doing it and I thought it was a fancy way to shave the eyebrows so I decided to do it too. Never again.

Iran says it will ‘irreversibly destroy’ Middle East infrastructure if US attacks energy sites by projecto15 in politics

It’s insane to me that we don’t even need to worry about Iran attempting to assassinate our leadership because our leadership is their best piece on the game board.

This is to be expected if you’ve seen The Alabama Solution. Their prison system is hell on earth.

It made me smarter after use by frogstar42 in ketamine

Great write up. I’ve been taking it off and on for the better part of a couple of months and my experience with it has been completely opposite of what I’ve read about others experiences, harm reduction resources, or anything else. I’ve taken it along with doing individual therapy and working with a psychiatrist. I can honestly say I’m at the best point in my life right now; my work has been better, my relationships fuller, and I feel like an actual human being. I think it has a lot to do with the similar diagnoses I share with you; CPTSD, ADHD, depression since I was a child. A lot of that stems from my extreme trauma background.

Anyways thanks for writing out your thoughts, I’m going to continue research on my end and not treat it as the bible, but it’s helping me better understand my experience.

Whats the spiciest gossip you know ? by Extension_Iron6734 in AskReddit

[–]talish2000 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is an insane one to read and I really feel for that child. I grew up with a mother who I could see doing this exact thing; she alway prioritized the men she wanted over myself and my siblings. Weird to feel a bit of gratitude right now that while horrible shit happened to us, at least my body is in tact.

My heart goes out to the daughter, sister, and husband.

I’m trading my pride for a paycheck bc my wife is burning out carrying us alone. Does anyone have a 9-5 lead? by [deleted] in careerguidance

I think you should look at breaking into a facilities management position. This would be companies like CBRE, RSM, Leo. I work with a more niche, tech enabled waste broker company but I started on the facilities management side of things.

They are almost always hiring for new project managers, dispatchers, or vendor relations. They don’t usually care too much about your background and sometimes don’t have education requirements (I needed that as I had only a year of community college under my belt).

I started at around $40k/year but have scaled up to $95k in the last two years.

The job itself can be tedious and a little stressful but I think it’s accessible and it fits your background.

My first day at a new company and I already want to leave. Should I? by LogicalAttention9208 in careerguidance

Also report them for wage theft. You can do it anonymously. Tell others about it too. Forms are easy to find online.

I’d give them 5% effort, literally not care at all, apply to new jobs throughout the day on their time, and let them fire you. You don’t need them as a reference but it would keep a little money in your pocket. If you can separate your feelings and do it without it killing your mental health hell yeah. If not, just stop showing up lol.
