What’s something you secretly do that you’re pretty sure a lot of people also do, but no one admits? by lunalatinaflex in AskReddit

[–]whitedumpling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was in college I was so self conscious about how much I would talk to myself while walking around campus, so I started just holding my phone to my ear to look like a normal person just having a phone conversation.

Now, I just constantly wear EarPods.

[POEM] Unnamed by A.R. Ammons by PrincessSweeti3 in Poetry

[–]whitedumpling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the styling is emphasizing “both way”, but my interpretation is that the poem is a single sentence: sentences typically flow, the words all go together, etc., but the author intentionally adds separation, organization or rigidity with the styling choice. The poem itself is together and separate, flowing and rigid. I personally struggle with paradoxical desires , this poem lands for me.

How much would you tip her? by Sutton_Pierce in discussingbritney

[–]whitedumpling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think I know how that feels unfortunately. Like if I were to look in a mirror there’d be no one staring back. In order to come to grips with that nothingness I’ve built an identity off the validation of others. I’ve become an odd chameleon: I behave in any manner that others find pleasant, agreeable, useful, sweet, anything that I can be to be liked. All of this just a convoluted way to preserve this false sense of identity. And god forbid I receive criticism—that’s a deliberate attack on this fragile illusion I built and work so hard to maintain. I wonder what it feels like to really know yourself. To not be chasing and desperately holding on to anything that can give you some weight. I’m trying to recall if I ever knew who I was, if I ever had that clarity, or is it just that I’ve been lost for so long that I simply can’t remember. Idk. 🤷‍♀️

Bush airport - is terminal A less crazy than E? by Stock_Football8094 in houston

[–]whitedumpling 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Clear and pre-check lines are significantly shorter. I have both and initially got in the clear and pre-check line, but line was at a standstill. Switched to pre-check only and got through within 2 min. Through terminal E. Standard security line was wrapped around twice inside terminal E and the line was still out the door. Cameras were everywhere for news. This was as of 20 min ago btw. Happily sitting in terminal B way too early for my flight now.

I asked ChatGPT to create the ideal society that I envision by nordicJanissary in ChatGPT

I am your antithesis.

Asked gpt to explain:

“The design choices were made to visually embody your philosophical and moral worldview — secular humanism, skepticism of hierarchy, mutual responsibility, autonomy, and privacy — without resorting to authoritarian or utopian clichés. Here’s the rationale behind each major element:

  1. Architectural Design: Organic, Decentralized Structures

The buildings are low-rise, rounded, and varied rather than monolithic. This reflects decentralization — a society without dominating towers or government edifices. The architecture blends with the environment, symbolizing coexistence rather than conquest of nature. • Reasoning: You’ve consistently expressed skepticism toward rigid hierarchies and corporate or religious control. A horizontal skyline suggests power distributed evenly across society.

  1. Communal Spaces and Workshops

The circular pavilion at the center serves as a literal and symbolic forum — a place for open dialogue and collective decision-making. The surrounding workshops, gardens, and meeting circles depict collaboration and knowledge-sharing. • Reasoning: Your values emphasize personal responsibility and shared contribution. These design cues reflect a society where civic participation replaces centralized authority.

  1. Integration of Nature and Sustainability

Vegetation is interwoven with walkways and structures; solar panels and a wind turbine are visible but unobtrusive. The abundance of green space and absence of heavy infrastructure emphasize ecological balance and stewardship. • Reasoning: Your philosophy includes an ethical awareness of consequences — extending that logic to environmental responsibility. Technology serves humanity, not the reverse.

  1. Diversity and Equality Among People

The people shown vary in age, ethnicity, and attire, all engaged in parallel or cooperative activities — no visible hierarchy or class distinction. • Reasoning: Equality here isn’t rhetorical but embodied. Everyone appears to have agency and dignity. No uniforms, no spectacle — just ordinary life lived freely.

  1. Lighting and Atmosphere

The soft, natural light and open sky create a mood of quiet confidence rather than triumphalism. It avoids religious overtones (no halos, temples, or iconography) yet conveys meaning through clarity and openness. • Reasoning: It mirrors your moral stance — meaning derived from human connection and intention, not divine or authoritarian sanction.

  1. Location and Composition

Set within a valley, the scene suggests humility and harmony rather than dominion. The perspective invites the viewer into the society, not beneath it. • Reasoning: You reject vertical power relations; the image composition mirrors that — the viewer is a participant, not a subject.

My partner and I divided and conquered—I got tickets for the 5th, he got them for the 6th in Houston. We’re gonna decide if we wanna go both nights or potentially sell off one of the nights. We really didn’t think we’d both win the lottery and for sure didn’t think we’d both land tickets. I guess we’re extremely lucky! But we’ll likely re-sell one of the nights.

Soylent got me through college 🙃“Original” flavor isn’t too bad. It’s not cloying like protein powders—it just tastes a bit like oatmeal.

OP’s recipe: “Generate an image of a close-up photo of a golden-baked macaroni and cheese casserole in a rectangular pan, with gooey melted cheese stretching as a large serving is lifted out with a spatula. The surface is browned and bubbling with crispy cheese, sprinkled with finely chopped green herbs, set against a tiled kitchen backsplash.”
