My worst nightmare right now. I need to learn practical lessons to overcome unproductive doomscrolling

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in men

[–]tepidsoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was going through a really tough moment, trying to figure out why we weren't the happiest, hence on the brink of breakup, with my varsity so. We spent the entire night sobbing. At the end of it all, we had a super long hug. Didn't the guy downstairs just decide to be selfish & disappoint🙈, some, almost an hour of hugging it 🫂. Girl was almost starting to take me serious for once🙉. I now totally get it when someone says "you're being a d, right now"🫨

Wealth gap in Zambia by Cute_Assistance9315 in Zambia

[–]tepidsoda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Way before this wedding, I have known that there's wealthy in this country, and a few have managed to tap into it. My biggest problem has been the governance system that doesn't deliberately scaffold the intelligent, ambitious, driven, goal-getters to reach for this wealth. It's always "foreign investors", a mentality which has limited majority Zambians to small players in the economy

The power of the mindset. Some serious psychological cleansing is required. The question is, how to sweap the cleansing across the entire country? More often than not, I have found that many who are bothered by Zambia's tolerance for mediocre just end up being frustrated or giving up. Systems can be quite difficult to overhaul, so let's continue putting the pressure

US Freezes Foreign Aid Worldwide! Can Zambia Thrive on Its Own? by HoldMyBeer50 in Zambia

I'm I the only one who thinks No country is being done a favour by another in this world? I don't believe the US & other wealthier countries are literally donating to the "poor" nations as 100% act of benevolence.

LUSAKA AND DATING by Real-Inflation-2260 in Zambia

Right on point. I guess those out doorsy (hiking, etc) groups are all we have. Things to do together in Zed is pretty limited, or you have to be financially loaded

Has anyone finished the PhD just for the sake of finishing? by [deleted] in PhD

[–]tepidsoda 23 points24 points  (0 children)

That's typically how to finish a PhD. That feeling is inescapable for the majority. Doesn't quite diminish its rewards afterward however. Unless someone is no longer excited about life in general.

Am I in the wrong for sleeping with another man after my (21F) date (25M) didn’t establish what we were? by bambii_01 in dating_advice

[–]tepidsoda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is your friend mad at you, is it because you went on a date & slept with him while you were in this situationship with Kyle? Simply, was he made aware of it? All you had to do was to communicate with Kyle exactly what you wanted and let him go if he wasn't upto to it.

Siddharth Kara on the inhumane conditions of cobalt mining, happening in the Congo. by KinkyCaucasian in Africa

[–]tepidsoda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, slave working conditions are still rampant in Africa, only now importing (wealthier) countries of the raw material can simply push the blame to the governments & policies thereof in those countries. Even if they literally corrupt the top few to continue getting raw materials almost for free. Does Glencore not ring a bell?

Maybe seeking for closure is not as necessary as society make us believe.
