The work in question (from the article):

“If you can’t make your own dopamine, store-bought is fine!” 💖

When my kid has a nice day

A cute plush

Crab rangoon

Seeing plants start to bloom

Friendly cats

Seeing someone embrace their curiosity about a subject

My stupid bearded dragon

Seeing someone clearly filled with joy

Younger people discovering a “retro” thing and thinking it’s “cool”

Being able to answer a question because you have the niche knowledge to do so

Someone who is genuinely awed by sometimes you put a lot of time / effort into

Eating a juicy, crunchy, delicious apple that hits that craving just right!

Seeing a cool bug

There’s more, but I’ll stop for now (but lmk if you need a continuation).

I see them now!! Okay, that probably helps with staying centered and knowing where your hands are when typing!

Man, the human mind is something else. Not my human mind, but other people’s minds.

Thank you!

How do you know you’re pressin’ the right keys?

Askin’ for a different guy.

The reptile-keeping hobby. ):

“Dang. This is, like… the never-ending soda.”

“Spring Cleaning” felt like a turning point to me, in a good way! I feel so fresh, so clean!

“Kid’s Book” was absolutely my favorite.

Tracing shapes & cutting them out.

It’s like 20% sewing, the other 80% being planning, geometry, resource management, tracing, and cutting.

And I often discover that I’m still bad at math! Pain. 🫠

I’ve gone on countless rants about how I loved Subnautica but loathed Below Zero.

In short, I hope that newest entry:

• stays in the water 90-95% of the time
• shuts up the protagonist
• seriously… shut up. Stop talking. Shut up. Let things be mysterious.

Seriously, Subnautica is one of my favorite games of all time and one of the first to make me care about it’s world. I’m only harsh because I want to like it so badly.

Also: I felt like Below Zero was one long trailer for the next game. Especially the ending. So absolutely disappointed… my kid still remembers my indignant anger at the ending more than the actual game, and still thinks it was the funniest reaction to the ending of any game we’ve ever played.

Probably a local gym.

Thanks! I miss the feel of old image boards and niche forums.

In this case, I think highlighting the absolute goofiness of this entire thread fits well into the theme.

My guy: it’s literally the first line of your linked post.

“My posts keep getting deleted!”

— user looks into public info to find out why your posts might be being deleted —

“Shut up, r×ddit defender!!!”

If you really want to know, I’ve seen a lot of people just delete their old posts for privacy reasons. Trying to keep that internet footprint out of sight.

I think it’s all about how it’s said. The simpler, the better. Phrasing is important, too.

Hey OP. Please look up the “Stonewall riots”.

Directly fighting against the forces that are making & enforcing laws that can & will do harm is the right thing to do. If the people in power / enforcing unfair practices see they are unopposed, they will become stronger in their positions. Complacency allows imbalance.

Will I break windows for Gaza? No. I will not. Who will that help? Who am I fighting? That kind of thing is nonsense.

Will I fight police that are attacking students for protesting? YES. YES I WILL. Because if you fight back, they will understand that you will not allow yourself to be walked all over by unjust enforcement. They will think twice about attacking students next time, because they know people are willing to fight back. If they do not encounter opposition, they know they are safe to do whatever they want.

In short: once a bully realizes that you will hit back, they are less inclined to bully you. Even more so if you are backed up by more people who also hate the bully.

EDIT: To be fair, I don’t hope for “collapse”. However, I do understand why people do. The corrupt system goes so deep that collapse may be the only way to dismantle it, as it is beyond any kind of reform.

Do I want collapse? No. But, unfortunately, it may be necessary. The system cannot be fixed without being dismantled, and I’m not optimistic that we will experience a miracle.

Y’all are grown folk arguing if it’s ethical to fuck high school students.

I got nothing to say to that.
