I've been pretty lazy about changing stores since they had the easiest pick up i had found in my area, but i guess this is the ass kick i need to make sure i never go back.

Sucks they own almost all the groceries in my area. But i can trust that it's not a monopoly, right?

Groceries prices deeeeefinately aren't inflated. Nope. All good here.

Worst thing I didn't realize from being young is: keeping people around who are going to eventually leave no matter what cuz they didn't actually respect me isn't worth it.

Show them enough respect to get what you need out of them but don't be friendly with them because they don't actually care about you and none of it's real. They're being social friendly just enough but it's not real and they don't really care about you.

Don't get emotionally invested and don't let people close to you who don't know you and who you know cause you pain, otherwise you're just causing self harm to not be alone and the scars will ruin close social relationships. Colleagues should ne at arm's length you, can tell them that they're being inappropriate, you can just walk away you, can ignore them, be cold to them give them social situations to make them feel uncomfortable like they do you and cut them out.

I promise you in 2 years agter graduation none of them will probably be around. None of them will probably helped you with a job (networking it almost exclusively better with older people in the industry NOT your own rivals for jobs).

And you're going to have spent time juggling relationships that were a waste of your time and that they never cared. Carry around scars for your future partners and friends, ways you wont trust because of a casual acquaintance. It's as bad as having a cheating partner for causing you to mistrust and feel unsable to force yourself to be friendly with people who don't care about you.

None of what they say matters to them or they even process it in social situations. They dont put themselves into your shoes.

I'm it feels like everything to you and so it feels like it'll be everything to them, but no they won't remember you for anythings but a stereotypes they formed in their head 2 months after you haven't been around. Then a year later they may have the vaguest recollection.

Only you will remember this in 10 years. Act with respect for yourself, not them and not what you've been told they'll be good for.

Because you won't lie at night wishing you had given more of yourselves to others. You wont wish you made yourself more vulnerable, more easy to hurt by letting cold and thoughtless people into a close place where they can hurt you. You'll wish you had walked away rather than cause wounds you'll never be able to heal.

Is that the take away from the comic? I see it as more someone trying to explore through clothing and someone saying theyw would be supportive?

Are we so defensive we can't even have that anymore? Are we unable to discuss gender presentation and identity detached from transition? What about nonbinary identities? Some people explore that and transition, some don't.

Are we really supposed to be regressive and call it self protection? Are we at the "respectable transgender" era along with "I'm gay but I don't know about this trans stuff" already?

Do you have a movie or show as an example specifically or just a general "can"?

You hitch your pony with Sony, whomever is there when it drops gets to present it to the world unfortunately. You lose any ability to be independent and you're release ends up being remembered and known by what gets sent out.

It was lazy in the end stretch no matter how much time was sunk into it at any one time. How long was Starfield in developmen after all, it still felt lazy and so did what I saw of Concord.

Sucks to work on something and have the group you teamed up with tank the whole thing, but you still gotta know who you signed up with, and Sony was clearly done working on the project.

Lol i cant even with the whole thing.

However, even with all those factors, no one could possibly have predicted the scale of its failure.

I didn't hear about it UNTIL the failure. I think it wasn't expected to do well, i don't think it was advertised well, and it was a lazy cash grab in a filled market no one asked for.

Just because a game gets made doesn't make it good, wanted, or timed well.

Stardew Valley came out in 2016, but I didn't see any traffic for a few years outside people who had been waiting for it. It took off around 2019 according to google trends.

Most devs wont give the game time to even improve anymore, let alone join friends in a multiplayer game. Concord's google trends start the day before it released.

My question would be how much of this is actors no longer being completely subjected to the gross wims of the director. How many scenes had little to do with a story and felt more like the director using the opportunity to make pretty people obey them.

We have intimacy directors now and what may also be happening is individuals having more say in production and in their bodily autonomy and I don't see that as an issue particularly.

Did random sex scenes really hit the level of art for you folks? Is pornography art the same way? 🤔 You know both are made for mass sale and consumption usually, the same way, much more than trying to make content to say anything.

But um "it so bad we block the titties!" or whatever is popular to say. Even though i personally don't remember many that added anything story related. Show me them bonding in a real way, sex doesn't cement anything if you've ever had a cheating partner, but a real collection of moments spent together between them that shows understanding and sacrifice for each other can really have an impact.

Does he currently get money if you use JavaScript like the Brave CEO gets for his products?

On mobile it's the three dots then the install button that has an image of a cellphone?

Sure, how many people do you think you'd walk up to who are renting who would say that that's their situation?

Why are you talking about the exception not explicitly the problem that this is supposed to be trying to address?

The issues are people who want to purchase cannot while people have more than one.

Are you saying we prioritize those renters over homeowners? Is that better for the economy of the country to have people who are renting as opposed to people who own?

Edit: also how does this work if a country cares about their citizens and absolutely any of their citizens are homeless while someone has extra and empty housing?

It was literally answered right by Google's AI when i googled it if you're not aware the history of queer people in the world enough to know about a big issue that happened in a major global actor's military in 1993 until 2011.

I always felt like there isn't the shaming on the internet for the intellectual laziness like there used to be. It used to be the responsibility of the reader to take a moment and educate themselves, but now we proudly proclaim not only did we not do the bare minimum, but the OP was bad for not spoon feeding us?

There's already so little interaction with the posted content here and you can't even bother to try?
