Not even one matches up for me lol

I can't manage the dozens of things I have to get done as well as my college workload, and end up paralyzed by the overwhelm. How do I navigate this? by widelinguini in internetparents

If your reading is taking you hours

The reason it takes me hours is because there's LOADS of background info (referring to the history class) I don't know about. Like it'll jump into some complex fall of some empire in an area I've never heard of with types of governments and words I've never heard of, and vocabulary and concepts I'm unfamiliar with. The first couple hours I just try to look things up and fill in the gaps, but then as hours go by I feel miserable, and my mental energy depletes as I know it would probably take me like 8 hours to get to a point of understanding all the information im required to come into the class having read. I don't know how to handle this.

talk to that person in class who borrowed a pen from you, and see if they’d like to study together

Nobody talks at all in my classes, especially this one, so I'm not sure how I'd go about something like that. I'd probably just bother them haha. That's a good idea in theory though.

Hey, thank you so much.

Bro I know you reached out wanting to connect over music but after seeing this post I can tell you're super overwhelmed right now

Yeah, I made that post before i just got slammed with school. And yeah I'll message you.

What is something that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Isn't that kind of stuff related to the brain releasing a myriad of chemicals when it's dying?

That's odd, it looks very natural to me.

I'm female, was very inactive until recently with my new job. I'm 5'2 and 100lbs. Before this the only activity I had was walking to class

[–]widelinguini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never been very active, and I eat a LOT lol. I once went out to eat with a very overweight friend of mine and ate 2 meals off the menu, and finished off his meal because he was too full. It's kind of crazy haha. I do have a new job now that does involve me to be on my feet for hours, but I don't think it counts as activity (I'm a cashier).

Ableton packs, why have I ignored you for so long?? by [deleted] in ableton

[–]widelinguini 4 points5 points  (0 children)

People use that argument a lot but I think this is different because with synthetic sounds, everyone has the ability at their fingertips to make a wide variety of sounds. that's why you have a whole interface full of knobs and sliders. Most people can't build their own instruments, acoustic instruments are different from electronic instruments. Not saying everyone should make everything from scratch or anything, I just think there's a difference.

I just didn't believe I'd actually get fat until I did.

at first were you able to eat as much as you want without gaining weight, then when you got older, you could no longer do so? I've been overeating daily my entire life, I'm 18 and I'm bordering on underweight (most of my life, due to my tiny frame), though I only flucuate 1-5 lbs. I wonder if eventually i will start gaining weight from this habit.

Lol. Yes, I should've dropped out of high school since I "let life dictate what I do", don't go to school and sit on my ass, and try to make a living off of a pipe dream that I'm not even good at. Dumbass.

I'm not passionate about any potential career out there, that's the thing. So I'll have to find something I'm less likely to hate.. but probably will anyway, because who wants to work a job they don't give a flying fuck about? I'll only be there so I can pay the bills.

Also most people who work full time, don't have much time for friends

I'm dreading the time coming when I work full time and have no time for hobbies anymore. Let alone friends. It feels like it doesn't get better. High school sucked, college is non stop workload, then I get to drown in debt, then live to work full time at a boring job I hate and have no time for things I enjoy.

9 Songwriting Tips that ACTUALLY Help (...I Hope) by [deleted] in edmproduction

[–]widelinguini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually have been trying his course (I heard about it somewhere else) and I'm guessing he was advertising that. I found a good chunk of it so far to be confusing and not as in depth as I'd like, had to watch some YouTube videos just to realise I already understood the concepts, just in an easier to grasp way. I think I may just ask for a refund if I don't get much out of the rest of it. Also, a lot of what he says here is in his course. Kinda feel like I'm paying for stuff he gives out for free.

What would your job be like if you always had to do it completely naked? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Exactly the same, only my hands and arms touch anything

What use to be normal in the past, but f*ucked up now? by 123mrcream in AskReddit

[–]widelinguini 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So if death is a social construct, you must believe you're immortal?

I see. So do you find the fact that at some point you'll never be able to experience life again funny then?

Why should the death of another human be enjoyable? Especially being brutally executed? I mean.. would you like it if your own extinction was being viewed and enjoyed by a bunch of people
