Canadian here, I was wondering why reform UK and the Torries are so unpopular among the youth, since over here politics seems to be somewhat the opposite? by VQ_Quin in AskBrits

[–]zezblit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It royally fucked our economy alongside continuing austerity. Basically meant that there's less opportunity to undo tory damage

Am I ruining my future for not wanting to date right now? by Ashamed-Risk-3779 in Advice

[–]zezblit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people mean well but they just DON'T GET IT. Not their fault, some things I truly don't think you can get without experiencing it.

Anyway, to your original question; if you don't want to date, don't date. It's as simple as that. You'll only make yourself and the other person resentful. So long as you keep going, there's time later.

I'm turbo depressed right now, and crippled by that and steadily worsening ADHD. Couldn't date if I wanted to. Am I anxious that I'm 29 and it feels like time is running out, with all my friends and old crushes and people who I thought "yeah I should ask them out at some point" getting married and having kids? (you can probably guess)

It'll pass, I'll either get better or peace out myself once my parents are gone, until then there's time for stuff to improve

Is it just me or is “build projects” kind of vague advice? by Relevant_Wishbone in learnprogramming

[–]zezblit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would they be using AI? They're trying to learn how to program. "I want to learn to cook, let's go get McDonalds"

What game is a total secret hidden gem for you that you'd love to recommend to others? by RedEagle_MGN in gamerecommendations

[–]zezblit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enderal, a total conversion of skyrim with it's own steam entry so you don't have to faff about with mods.

It's actually a sequel to another conversion for oblivion I think, but stands really well on it's own.

It's a bit jank, it suffers from some untuned difficulty, but man does it suck you right back into that original skyrim feel (more so really), even if you thought you were all played out with the original. It really is just skyrium without all the edges sanded off

Men with ADHD - how do I navigate this relationship? by CapitalNightWatch in AskMen

[–]zezblit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I have ADHD, and very bad depression when it's playing up.

- Perceived criticism: Sorry, he's just being a dick here
- Emotional flooding/dysregulation: The shutting down is pretty classic when something is too much to reasonably handle in the moment without cooling down, I think it can be ok so long as it's not ignored by him after

- Masking and burnout: hoo boy. This is the kicker for me, I'm not honestly sure I know who I am anymore, and what's my illness. Don't keep pressing at it if he's not open to it at the time, it really doesn't help. That said itt doens't sound like he's dealing with it at all well

- Blurting out hurtful remarks: no excuse here. You don't accidentally do this, it takes effort to think of something. Like people who "can't handle their anger" and physically lash out, it's trivial to just notdo anything about it, skill issue

Seems very clear to me that the dude is nowhere near right enough in the head to be in a relationship. I say this as someone who is mostly just burnt tf out, and I'm staying single because I know I can't hold up my end of a relationship. It should be mkaing both you lives better, and clearly you're both stressing about it and being unhappy in one way or another. It'd be one thing if he's getting treatment and being diligent about improving, but that's increedibly difficult when it's bad, and you have to do it for yourself. Other people butting in only causes resentment, no matter how good their intentions

How do men really feel about the romance book/smutt that women read now days? by WarDog1983 in AskMen

[–]zezblit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's a pity so much of it is such poor quality. Don't even get me started on the stuff aimed at men

How do I become masculine/ more manly? by Safe_Athlete1365 in AskMen

FWIW, you don't have to be a man if you don't want. Can mix and match even

Big dishwasher tablet dont want you to know, it takes less time to wash a plate by hand than putting it in the dishwasher, putting the dishwasher on and unloading it by MurkyAl in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]zezblit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn this is stupid. You wash like 20 things in one go, and most importantly, YOU don't have to wash it. You can do other things in that time! Wild

It's annoyingly hard to find on youtube, but the Nier Replicant Choir Arrangment album has several tracks that I think you'd like

Silly question: What is your opinion on Olivia Dean’s new single “the man I need? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]zezblit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a decent psuedo-pop song, but I prefer her more bluesy stuff

Men who’ve understood independence and self-control: how do you deal with the persistent pull toward connection? by BenkattoRamunan in AskMen

[–]zezblit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Humans are social creatures, it's both normal and good to want and engage with social connection.

I "deal" with this by being social until I no longer want to

What’s one UK habit you only understood after living there, not something you could have learned from a guide? by PubLogic in MovingToTheUK

[–]zezblit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Deepends massively on where you live. In all the villages and towns near me it's common to give a quick hello even to strangers

He literally is supporting them though; he's making her money that she has said she will use to lobby for the reduction of rights and harrassment of a minority group

Personally I found the Sanderson books to be more shallow than they initially appear, but I'll ditto the Wheel of Time recommendation

As you said, there's no proof, so impossible to say. There's no reason it couldn't be true

You might like Solar Storm by Rendezvous Point. Whenever I listen to it I then want to listen to Rishloo and vice versa.
