Hackerman_uwu,

They do if they want to. Back off.

Hackerman_uwu,

Oh so just a kind and well adjusted character in general then? Enjoy your life pal that attitude is sure to take to places.

Hackerman_uwu,

I am a complete idiot and I would also like to know.

Hackerman_uwu,

Stop it. That really his name?

Hackerman_uwu,

That a general feeling of peace cannot be attained by controlling your environment, only by adjusting to it.

Hackerman_uwu,

A scholar would point out that I’m really just flippantly paraphrasing like, the entirety of stoic philosophical thought so the first thing I should say here is read some Epictetus and some Aurelius because those texts will pad out the space we are discussing here in a very comprehensive fashion.

With that said let me try to flesh out my OP a little.

I’m going to give you some examples from my own life and I’m using “we” and “our” here in a personal sense, drawing from my own circumstances and experiences. These utterances are subjective ones - please don’t read this the proclamation of some universal truth, YMMV.

I grew up subject to some challenging circumstances that led me to a deep need for self sufficiency. I had to believe that I could do anything I set my mind to because the alternative was a horrific life that I did not want to fall into at any cost.

In my twenties and thirties I made several huge efforts over several years to improve my circumstances. I met a woman, she already had a small child and so the urgency to make a success of my life increased further as I became responsible for a small family.

I pushed myself harder.

Believing that all I needed was to keep working at making sure everything was in its perfect place. I was a savage. If you crossed my path at work and I decided you were not an asset I would destroy you. If you competed with me professionally I would work day and night, forsaking everything else to beat you.

I lost myself in “succeeding” despite which that monkey on my back from my childhood never left me. Homelessness, abject poverty and having no value in the world was just one lazy day away for me. Even when I became objectively wealthy, started several businesses and had all of the outwardly visible trappings of success, inside I was still the same teenage kid, lost in the world with nowhere to go and deeplY, deeply afraid.

My forties rolled around and I became increasingly aware that something wasn’t right. I’d look at my family, my home, my work and everything seemed to be in its perfect place. I’d run out of things to “fix” and I was lost, just deeply unhappy and I couldn’t figure out why everything I had done had led to this feeling of emptiness. Why I was still running from nothing for a decade or more?

Over time and with the help of my wife I began to see that I was on a path to destruction. A long, winding one that disguised itself as so many things but a path to destruction none the less.

She would say to me: “I can’t bear to see you so unhappy, I can’t understand why you are sad and I’m scared that you’ll do something awful if things stay like this.”

Slowly I began to realise I needed help so I went to my GP and told them what was happening. They referred me to a psychologist and this was a real stroke of luck for me because the woman they referred to me to, we just hit it off instantly. If you’re reading this and considering therapy then just know that it can take a while to for the right person but I was incredibly lucky to find this person immediately.

It took over a year of therapy for me to arrive at a place where I could allow myself to be and not always do.

We grow up in a patriarchal society that rewards and values aggression at the cost of inner peace and I had taken that belief system down hook, line and sinker. That internalised Hunger Games world I was living in was destroying me slowly, one closed deal, one Mercedes Benz, one Rolex at a time and I was trapped because every signal I received from friends, family, the media, from society at large was that what I was doing was right, was righteous and I was “succeeding”.

It took a year of therapy and a lot of personal growth to start coming round to the understanding that I was mistaken about the nature of things. That being good at being, just being, is more important than doing. Took me a long time to be able to get off the gas and just enjoy the view out the window a little bit.

When I learned to just be I learned to find the good in things. Not simply to take everything apart trying to find the bad thing I had to fix, and that changed me fundamentally as a person.

I’m now see myself as a participant in the world. The good things and the bad things. I’m no longer the person at the wheel, ultimately responsible for everything in a finite human life that is guaranteed only of ultimate obliteration.

Learning to integrate to my life and not just struggle in futility to control every aspect of it has made me a better version of myself. More loving, more able to see goodness. More peaceful inside and less prone to anger. Easier on myself and others too as a result, and now when my wife or one of our children smile or laugh I’m right there watching it, experiencing it and feeling that for once I am in my perfect place and not just everything around me.

Hackerman_uwu,

Thanks for chiming in Laszlo.

Hackerman_uwu,

This article should actually be about hack journalism that uses hot button issues to make clicks out of pointless nonsense.

Hackerman_uwu,

TBF I’m more interested in pretty much anything than Twitter.

Hackerman_uwu,

They’re all terrorists or terrorist sympathizers as far as IDF is concerned.

Kind of getting there myself tbh.

Hackerman_uwu,

When I am cutting on a LCHF diet I’ll sometimes take food with me to gathering so that I can remain focused. So, I’m not drinking, I’m staying well under 30g of sugar per day and I’m super focused on that and want to maintain a streak. Friends have become majorly hetup with me for refusing their famous carbonara or something and eating from my lunch box. Now, I understand how “weird” that is and I’ll take that but it’s not rude to decide what goes into my body. Check yourself.

Hackerman_uwu,

I always thought the drone scenes would be so interesting on film like a mix between bullet time and 10000fps. Also weird storytelling seeing the other scenes pop up in drone time.

Hackerman_uwu,

Exactly. Kanye is bipolar, rich, and he’s a fucknut.

Same way ou can have chicken-pox and AIDS at the same time.

They are not mutually exclusive.

I wish plant based diets could be made easier for people (than they already are). I also wish people were more open to the concept of fortified foods or supplements.

This is something I think only vegans can understand without it turning them off veganism. Pls don’t think I’m arguing against veganism because it’s quite the opposite. I’m identifying what I view as the biggest obstacle to mass adoption of vegan/plant-based diets: Availability of nutritious plant-based foods. However...

Hackerman_uwu,

Agreed. It’s definitely not impossible to have a balanced, nutritious plant based diet but it is much more effort than most are willing to make.

It’s like the fediverse of diets. Pretty good but you have to know what you’re doing and put in the effort, which is much more than our disposable, instant everything culture is up for.

Hackerman_uwu,

Actually a really clever way to call them liars without drawing heat from lawyers.

How are you this stupid son?

What did you do to survive the night of/after a breakup?

Boyfriend of 2 years (best friend of 6) just told me he’s started seeing someone else. No discussion. Just ghosted me for a week and hit me with this news. Thought he was my soulmate, lmao. I feel like someone just ripped out my insides. Just turned 31 this year, this shit is not any easier than when I was a teenager....

Hackerman_uwu,

You know for the big ones I’ve always had a friend step up and kidnap me for a day or two. I’m lucky to have friends like that.

Hackerman_uwu,

For an 11 year old to be so full of hate someone must be pushing an agenda on them pretty hard and in this case at the very least it ain’t the drag queens.

Hackerman_uwu,

Do you think you could be a little more careful in your angry smearing of conscientious objectors please?

My brother dodged the draft. He’s a theologian who spent years in exile due to his refusal to serve the corrupt apartheid government.

Give a fuck about Edolf Twitler or don’t but leave the rest of us out of this. Cunt is your problem now anyway.

Just, mind the facts while you rant if you don’t mind. Please.

Hackerman_uwu,

Agreed. The hairline, much like the cake, is a lie.

Hackerman_uwu,

America is a place of personal feeedom but not personal accountability it seems.

Hackerman_uwu, (edited )

I need to start checking the instance when someone posts something stinky.

I’d honestly noticed it a lot over the last few weeks and thought oh well, eternal September.

There was a nice little period there where’s there wasn’t much discussion around and those actually poking their heads out were really kind of wholesome. Now I see so many people still coming across in that friendly, inclusive way and I realise it’s just a vocal minority ruining it.

Let’s hold each other to a higher standard.

One love.

Hackerman_uwu,

You folk do good work.

‘Archer’s’ Final Mission: Sterling and His Frenemies Sign Off After 142 Episodes of Awful Behavior. We Will Miss Them. (variety.com)

I first heard about FX’s “Archer” in the ready room of VAQ-135, a navy squadron who were serving an interminable deployment aboard an aircraft carrier somewhere near Midway Island. (This sounds very much like a humblebrag that Sterling Archer would obnoxiously drop into conversation). It was 2010, and the pilots had lost...

Hackerman_uwu,

Careful. That’s how you get ants.

Hackerman_uwu,

Narcissists cannot process that anything could happen and not be directly related to them.

Hackerman_uwu,

That’s cos D9 was about apartheid so you saw a modern apartheid state and saw a correlation.

Neil Blomkamp is South African. D9 was about the group areas act that removed people from their homes into townships all over South Africa.

Hackerman_uwu,

“Jewish” is an ethnicity as well as a religion so one can be ‘of Jewish descent’ without practicing Judaism.

I think that’s the short answer.

Please correct me if I got any terminology muddled up.

Hackerman_uwu,

I actually walked out of Schindlers List and bough a ticket for the very next screening.

Bleak as hell but I’d never seen a film that locked me in the way that film did.

Hackerman_uwu,

I thought it would build anticipation.

Hackerman_uwu,

Actually if there was a game called “Mindcraft” that would be as on flames as an af, no hat.

Hackerman_uwu,

Star Jesus has been an awesome character in this series really.

Hackerman_uwu,

There’s at least two slices too. I couldn’t stand my own breath after eating that. Yikes!

Hackerman_uwu,

I’m almost certain that most if not all of his kids were conceived via artificial inseminaton?

He’s got a little Boys from Brazil thing going on with these kids.

‘Get Help’ – Elon Musk Blasted for Mocking Ukraine With Fake Zelensky Picture (www.kyivpost.com)

‘Get Help’ – Elon Musk Blasted for Mocking Ukraine With Fake Zelensky Picture The world’s richest man has continued his campaign against Kyiv, this time by using a fake picture of President Zelensky to mock Ukraine’s fight against Russia’s full-scale invasion....

Hackerman_uwu,

South African Afrikaans speakers: “ghost breath” which is the best name for it by far.

Twitter is losing daily active users. CEO Linda Yaccarino confirmed it. (mashable.com)

By now, you may have heard about Elon Musk’s handpicked CEO for X, Linda Yaccarino, and her disastrous interview with CNBC’s Julia Boorstin at Vox Media’s Code 2023 event. However, somewhat overlooked amid some of the more viral moments of the discussion, Yaccarino dropped some previously unknown stats that don’t exactly...

Hackerman_uwu,

For those unfamiliar with website/app analytics: a hugely successful, modern advanced analytics campaign (say AI or Machine Learning based) might move the needle on a a key KPI for a huge business like Twitter to the tune of say 3%-5%.

Over 11% would be huge numbers for a highly advanced, highly focused team to achieve in terms of measurable impact on a higher platform like that.

This moral imperative humping dolt achieved that number in negative effects to his company without even trying.

Hackerman_uwu,

Dude they will never get it because they do not equate these actions with fear and cowardice. They see the man with the gun as the tough guy, not the paranoid weirdo that he is.

Even the sane Americans that back gun control, etc. share this bias. They have grown up round this shit, it’s ingrained.

Hackerman_uwu,

built entirely on dumb lies

I see you have learned about “impressions”.

Hackerman_uwu,

More to the point: they replicate patterns of words.

Hackerman_uwu,

A certain Mr. Huffman

Lol. You still talk like a “Redditor”. Don’t worry, hang around here some more and you’ll sound like less of a dork in no time.

Hackerman_uwu,

I’ll allow it.

Hackerman_uwu,

;)

Hackerman_uwu,

What’ll they do with all those jets they made then?

Hackerman_uwu,

I just wanna say I think this hairstyle is beautiful!
