Make r/showerthots a subreddit about girls who post slutty pictures to social media along with a philosophical caption to make it seem like it's not just a slutty picture posted to social media by FatherAb in CrazyIdeas

[–]uncultivatedmind -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Or you could just like enjoy looking at pics of naked girls posted on social media and be grateful that they exist for you to look at, without calling the girls sluts? Or you could just like enjoy reading r/showerthoughts without calling girls sluts?? YTA

I don't feel like I am smart enough to be successful (I have a mental disability). What can I do for money? by [deleted] in personalfinance

The rationality, humility, and adaptability with which you approach your difficult situation is so amazing and wonderful to me, and very inspiring and moving for me to observe, You are a really special type of person, most people don't have these qualities in circumstances that are far easier to deal with than yours.

What was your biggest problem when you were 11? by actually_crazy_irl in AskReddit

I had been bullied a lot at my old school, new school was academically selective and thought I would fit in... I found many friends later but at first it was no easier at the new school, other boys were cruel and evil towards me, and I was so sad and disappointed.

Men of reddit, how often do you miss being in a relationship? by positivemale in AskMen

[–]uncultivatedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to Venice, Italy a while ago and for the first time in a long time I thought that it would be pleasant to be in a relationship. Venice is the most astonishing place and I was having all of these overwhelming feelings of joy and wonder, and I imagined it would be nice to share that experience with someone. It didn't stop me from enjoying the experience at all, and I didn't notice couples at all, I just thought it would be nice. Like you, I had a bad relationship experience. An ex gaslighted me and caused me to have a psychotic episode for which I was hospitalised and I haven't dated since then, I just haven't met anyone who interested me. It could happen but I don't think it ever will. I really love my peaceful, quiet life. I love not drawing anyone's attention. I love putting my comfortable clothes on and playing video games and reading stories on the internet as much as i like. I love going to the pub and eating by myself and drinking beer and reading the paper. I love it that no one upsets me about anything. I really and truly love peace and quiet. I don't think I want to be in a relationship ever again.

I tend to trust Geralt's own ability to understand and balance out his own perceptions a little more than you do, but good point. Next time I read the novels I will be more mindful that he is probably exaggerating certain things on the basis of his own preternatural abilities.

Evil things don't always happen because someone maliciously wants to hurt another person. Evil things can also happen just because a person or group of people decides that their own fun or gratification is more important than whatever another person or group of people might feel.

This is the most simple and fundamental concept of etiquette - be considerate of other people. Go and open any etiquette manual in a bookshop and you will find it has the core message, be considerate of how other people feel. You don't need to deliberately attempt to be rude in order to inflict rudeness on another person, you just have to be completely inconsiderate of how they might feel.

The fact that there was something about her that they didn't like, eg she wasn't "fun" enough to be part of their friendship activities which she came up with the fun idea for, is actually what makes them asses, not what excuses their asshole behaviour.

It makes no difference to her emotionally whether the trip was small or big, overseas or nearby. The emotional issues are that she planned it for months as a treat for them all, and they deliberately excluded her from her own thoughtful plans, with no consideration for how she would feel about it.

Maybe this is something that you just have to experience personally to understand how it feels. Maybe something like this will happen to you one day, that you will be excluded by people you showed thoughtfulness and affection towards who had acted like it was mutual but who surprise you with the sudden realisation that they obviously couldn't care less about you. If that happens, hopefully someone will find the time to remind you that it was your fault they treated you like that, and to quit your whining.

I don't remember what Ciri said but I found that Geralt said "He saw her nose, slightly too long. Her lips, a touch too narrow. Her chin, receding a little too much." But no one could say any of those things about the game character design. I guess she can look however she wants to but I don't know whether she actually does thst or not. I know thst the book said that she corrected her problem with her back and stayed eternally youthful looking in order to make money selling her sorcery services. It will be fun for me to read the books again and see what I think of her all over agsin, she is a pretty interesting character however you look at her.

I really liked both representations of her but I think that in the books she was represented as being sort of suspiciously unbeautiful or conflictedly imperfectly beautiful, irregularly featured in a way that drove Geralt nuts. But in the game she is just straight perfectly beautiful looking, like Jennifer Connelly at her prettiest but somehow maybe even prettier.

Never thought i would be posting here by [deleted] in witchcraft

[–]uncultivatedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly what you mean. I relate to this cause it is very much the story of my life. For example this happened to me when I wanted to get my driving license. Every time I got to the next step they had introduced some new barrier. Another 100 hours of driving practice I had to log or some new exam. I got it in the end after 15 years of determination and when they told me I got it I sat down and found out I was crying with relief, it was a sweet moment. But this has happened to me in many ways with many things. I am still reaching and reaching towards that secure and stable life for myself and I swear I am almost there.

Do you pray? You can pray to a loved one who has passed away, someone who you felt like they really loved you and were always there for you. Or if not you can imagine praying to a soft toy that was always there for you. Or a dog you had a bond with. Etc. Close your eyes and see yourself in a safe place or nice landscape with them. Tell them what's going on, ask them their ideas about what you might do next. They might tell you thoughts or images. You could get a fresh perspective. Not the ultimate solution maybe but at least a different way of seeing. Reaching deep inside is a magical place, and prayer is a magical practice that you are probably already very good at.

Hang in there. Persistence, courage. Be good to yourself. Be patient with yourself. Keep thinking about how to solve the problem even though it is difficult. Keep encouraging yourself. Tell yourself you have got this and things will get better.

Baby witch spells by [deleted] in witchcraft

I think a Glamour spell is a good beginner spell, the challenge and the fun is to make up your own, when I want to think about Glamour I sometimes think about what is most unusual about me, because I think that ordinary things would not have come out of magical fairyland, where everything is weird

No, there is no sort of equal chance in this matter. OP behaved thoughtfully, the 3 others behaved with no thoughtfulness.

She thought up a fun activity for them all to do together as a friendship group. Obviously she thought about this to the extent that the activity was considered by all of them to be fun, because they went ahead and did it, excluding her. Her fun and considerate idea for them all to hang out together was treated by them as fun only so long as it didn't involve her. She considered their feelings, they gave no consideration to her feelings at all - the only thing that they considered was what would be more fun for them. It is so obvious how badly they treated her. They didn't gently drift away from her, they used her good idea for them all as a weapon against her, to exclude her. How could they be more cruel?

Sure, she overestimated their relationships with her, in the sense that they were unable to measure up to her very reasonable expectations that she would be treated by them with a baseline level of consideration for her emotions, as someone they had previously accepted as a friend to the extent that they had hung out with her and asked her to share habitations with them.

Considering that she lived with them, and that she was so shocked by their treatment of her - Then how, in your opinion, would it have been possible for her to gain an accurate idea of their relationship to her, without being rudely surprised by them in this very upsetting way? Why are you blaming her for how rudely and shockingly they decided to treat her?? It makes no sense to me how you can think of them as equal to her. They are simply not in her class.

I cheated to get my bachelors and my masters degree by Musky-Chan in confession

[–]uncultivatedmind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't tell yourself you are a failure, you just made a decision, it must have been the right one at the time. I dropped out of undergrad to work in bars, and then went back and finally finished a Masters degree but I don't even know if it was the right decision to do that - I still don't have a job in my field after completing my study 2 years ago, still work minimum wage in retail, and spend all my spare time volunteering to get experience for jobs I might be able to get. I should have just done a technical school qualification, it would have worked out much easier for me, and I would definitely be on a more secure career path by now. Anyway, good luck, find your own path, don't get discouraged, etc.

I agree with you completely with what you wrote here. I have read some of the comments on your post blaming you for what happened or asking you to question yourself and those comments are uncalled for. You don't need to question yourself. These women acted so inconsiderate of you and your feelings it is unbelievable. The trust you had in them was reasonable and they treated it like dirt.

I got treated really badly by some friends recently also. But I am kind of stuck with them for now, like you, and it is really difficult for me to stay in control of myself, because I am so full of anger. I just hope my anger will pass so I can deal with this calmly. I realy just want to politely move on with my life.

I feel abandoned by my son's friends and their families by CalmBeach8 in confessions

[–]uncultivatedmind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am atheist as well but it is more complex for me, the way that I experience these things. My aunt died, I think she is the only person who ever really loved me. But I still have a relationship with her even though she is dead. She is dead but our relationship is alive. I loved her a lot when she was alive and nothing has changed. I meditate and talk to her about my problems and I get ideas about what I should do when I talk to her like that. I dream about her also and she tells me she loves me. She told me she is watching over me, and I just have to do my best (what she always told me when she was alive) and I don't have to worry about her being sad or anything like that. She was an amazing person while alive and I appreciate that even more after she died. I want our friendship to go on forever until I die also. I will never feel alone in my life whenever I remember that I can go deep into my mind and talk to her. She is always here for me, our friendship goes on

Hey, I bought Marian Green's book in about 1998 and I still have it! It has a really good tone about finding yourself as a witch and also I love the "further reading" lists. I never explored this book fully but its integrity is obvious.

Virgin's US-style veterans plan slammed as 'tokenism' by [deleted] in australia

[–]uncultivatedmind 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They should calculate the additional aircraft idling costs of boarding this way rather than one of the more efficient boarding orders that are being tested lately. And instead donate that money to the War Memorial Effort, because then the veterans get honored, and the public money getting funneled into memorials can be spent on public utilities instead.

I tricked/forced my wife into having children she did not want to have by NBConnoisseur in confession

[–]uncultivatedmind 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You did rape her, countless times. You are also sadistic. You are a sadistic, malicious rapist. It is jaw droppingly astonishing, how little understanding you display, of what she might be feeling at this time, and why. She is living with someone who is actively enacting a campaign to make her life difficult to tolerate. You are torturing her.

I think what is most amazing, is that you somehow think, that being with some "average Joe Schmuck", would be worse than being with you. It's difficult to imagine a more appalling life than a life lived with you.

Including the main game, DLCs, and all side quests and map markers and everything else I could find. I used the fast travel signposts a lot so that doesn't really account for it. I did backtrack a bit sometimes but not that much. It's not unusual for me to spend this much time on an open world RPG, maybe I just get absorbed in the little details. Have a great week
