No one needs to justify their existence. Existence is valuable in and of itself, not derived from what you can do or be or experience.

“In the same way that your heart feels and your mind thinks, you, mortal beings, are the instrument by which the universe cares. If you choose to care, then the universe cares. If you don’t, it doesn’t.”

Also it aired at the same time as the 2020 US presidential election, so the meme wires got crossed and people were using it to announce electoral results too, transforming it into a news announcement meme generally

That’s kind of a fucked up thing to comment on a picture of a black woman surrounded by racists

Oops I dropped this url here, how did that happen!

Once upon a time when the internet was small and niche, this may have been true. Now, it’s a firehose of information that is constantly available in your pocket. It’s healthy to curate that space to reflect your interests in your precious little time on earth. If you want to pop your bubble so badly, go out and talk to people! Make real connections instead of falling for engagement bait online that only leaves you frustrated and isolated.

You’re not incorrect to feel that way, but for context, this is a republican primary. The only people voting for this are the ones without enough shame to have changed their party affiliation in the past 1-10 years, so there’s definitely a sampling bias in these specific results. We won’t know what the rest of the voters want until November.

Extra funny when you learn what Chat GPT sounds like in French (chat, j’ai pété)

The goal isn’t to actually prevent those people from playing the game, obviously that’s not possible. The goal is to piss them off so it’s obvious to the other people they would be playing with that they are not fun or maybe safe to be around.

Says the account that calls themself a “Mayflower American” and warns against “degeneracy” maybe your perspective isn’t one that aligns with Portland labor?

Slander, our sun isn’t even big enough to super nova!

I think you’re correct, if Trump orchestrates all of that (Sliwa and Adams both dropping out) without explicitly endorsing, that could be a threat. But Trump is toxic waste in NYC. Of course everywhere has their share of assholes, but NYers have a long memory for crises specifically. Trump deliberately targeted them during covid, bragged about his building height during 9/11, I could go on. They hate his guts way more than they hate Cuomo.

I can’t think of anything more campaign sinking than an endorsement from Trump in an NYC mayoral race (that Cuomo already lost within his own proported party).

Recycling plastics specifically. Aluminum recycles amazingly well, and glass decently, so keep recycling those!

I don’t know if you’re correct or not but regardless, this argument definitely sounds like that doctor who told John Green it’s not normal to sneeze

I agree with the general trend of advice in this thread, but I’m going to go one step further: monetizing your hobbies is a very good way to get burnt out on those hobbies. Finding good work that you enjoy is important! But you should also have some things that are just for you.

Some people are asexual but not aromantic, and some people can’t have sex due to medical issues, so there are plenty of people out there who separate these! A lot of folks do experience them as entangled experiences, and that’s fine too. What’s important is finding what parts work for you, and a partner that is compatible with that if applicable.

Not a valid excuse, at least

I’m obviously not talking about being a dick to billionaires, I’m talking about harassing a burnt out instance owner
