So i am currently homeless with no family, friends, or car. Just a job ans storage full of items. Its been like this since march, the month I went to the recruiters office. Due to lack of attention, I have to wait longer for my medical waiver. Still no time in when i can enlist. I was hoping to enlist before the chnge in office just to get whatever benefits I can get should things go south. Seeing how things are going politicaly, im afraid when will be going into a needless war and I dont want to be a part of it. But on the other hand im homeless. The job I do have i like and dont see myself leaving anytime soon. The down side is that its not enough to pay rent. So i would be basically homeless for some time. But the military can do it quicker. So what do i do?
If the game, show or activity is Sexual or Grosome, it should be rated as 27+ cause 18 year olds are stupid. Like have you seen how old are the people who crashes they're cars? 18 year olds so in my opinion, THE GOVERMENT SHOULD HAVE A BETTER AGE RATING
Im applying for music scholarships and I have to write about how music has helped me develop as a person, what would yall' say? I just need some general ideas my brain is empty
What do people find appealing or fun when they destroy a person’s will either mentally or emotionally
This world is so unfair. If a guy kisses a guy it means it's considered "Weird" but if a girl and a girl kisses each other than it's "normal"? That's unfair. I honestly think Unfairness should stop
This is honestly unfair if you think about it. Kids are quiet when they're parents or adults are asleep but when a kid is asleep and the parents aren't then the parents just don't care and makes alot of noises. This is honestly so unfair. And when they grow up, they would probally treat the same thing to other people. Another one is that we let kids sit in metal or wooden chairs. That's honestly messed up cause Teacher's don't sit all day so why do they get something comfortable while the kids don't? And we let kids watch Things at a young age which can slower brain devolopment. Honestly, we should let kids have they're phones or devices at the age of 17. Kids are so unserious, Disrespectful, mean and much worse now cause we didn't teach them manners or anything. Not only that, the internet ruined them too. I honestly think this is Money's fault cause content farms exist cause of pure greed. I honestly think this world is unfair :(
Money is like 1 problem of the world. I honestly would beat up who ever invented that cause people are struggling. Your saying me, i need to pay just to get birth and get bandages? Like Seriously, that's why most kids grew up being serial killers cause of money. I have a much better idea but i would rather not say it
Tiktok motivate kids on doing bad things. One time, a tiktoker said "Too sleep better, put your phone under your pillow" and if your an expert, you would know that it's gonna go wrong. The phone may overheat and catch on fire. And another one motivate kids by saying "Gadgets teaches us more than schools cause we have youtubers that do science and school stuff" no, the kid will not know how to read and they're eyes may get sore-eyes. The kid will never know how to read cause they will get used on somebody explaining without them reading. Plus, they're necks are gonna hurt too.
Attached is a pair of custom Monster Inc Nike Sneakers that I purchased as a Christmas present for a family member. However, recently they have done some questionable and snake shit to me so I have decided to sell them. They are a 7.5 in mens and a 9 in Women’s. I initially paid $300.00 for the shoes but, I am willing to negotiate price. If you are interested just let me know.
Premise 1: The evolution of life on exoplanets or solar system ice moons is a morally significant event.
Premise 2: The possible outcomes of evolution on these celestial bodies are numerous and varied.
Premise 3: The range of possible outcomes in terms of well-being or suffering is extremely large.
Premise 4: Near-future microbial contamination of planets is likely to result in a sub-optimal or negative outcome for an enormous number of animals, leading to widespread suffering.
Conclusion: Therefore, humanity has a moral obligation to exercise restraint and prevent interplanetary and interstellar forward contamination for many years, lest it forfeit its moral justification for continued existence, since the astronomical suffering at stake may never be possible to compensate afterward anymore, as per the trolley problem.
Meanwhile, the space industry globally is still growing exponentially, which is intolerable.
Recently I’ve been sad and just overall moody, not depressed, but just not in a good mood and quite upset. I recently broke my monitor on accident when getting angry. I told my mum and dad who were surprisingly calm about it. My mum ordered me a new monitor which is really nice. But I have this guilt and sadness inside of me that makes me feel guilty and bad. There was also something else today, I wanted this framed picture from this shop for Christmas. I really wanted my mum to buy it for me but she said to wait until Christmas, and I wasn’t in a good mood about it. I went outside for abit when shopping and my mum came up to me and asked if I was ok. I apologised to her for the way I’ve been acting recently and she forgave me and said it’s ok. Then we went to the shop and got the picture I wanted. It was a Spiderman one btw. After buying it I felt pure guilty again for it. I don’t know what to do about it. It’s like I’m happy but also feel guilty you know. If someone could talk to me here about it and what I should do would be really appreciated. Thanks ❤️
Why is it that people tend to make others feel bad for liking things they don't. Take the new KSI song for example, it is bad in my opinion but that doesn't mean I should make others feel bad for liking it, after all we all differ in some way or another it's just not right to harass others over their interests.
NSFW isn't exactly the right tag here so apologies, I just figured this post probably needed some kind of trigger warning? Also I'm sorry if this is the wrong spot, it seemed slightly off topic for the sub but I couldn't find another good spot. If you know one, feel free to redirect me there.
I (16) started working with a guy (22) we'll call Nathan about 3 months ago, and he kind of imediatly became my favorite coworker. Id say we got pretty close, and around the two month mark I noticed a shift. He wasn't flirting with me, but he became more receptive to our conversations, and when he spoke to me or looked at me it was just different yk. So I decided to asked him out to an amusement park for a couple of hours.
I definitely did a little convincing, we had 4 different conversations about it before he agreed to go with me, but I'd loke to point out I asked him if he was concerned about it because of my age, and if he said yes I would have backed off. I didnt, because he told me he wouldn't be uncomfortable hanging out with me he just wasn't sure because he'd be tired.
When we were on the date, I asked him questions about himself, some of which were about past realationships, and he told me he'd never had a girlfriend, and he'd never had sex. This might be important, because I've had several realatuonships and sexual partners. We went back to his car and hung out, but I didn't do anything outside of kissing him. I later found out from another coworker he hadn't kissed anyone either (he didn't tell me that) which means I was his first kiss.
A few days later, I asked him over to my house one night, and he was really hesitant. We talked about it, and he told me he never felt guilty about being with me, before during or after, but he still knew it was wrong and that "we but know better" I told him I didn't care that it's wrong, and that I wouldn't ever tell anyone. As far all my friends know, we just went on that one date and he told me we couldn't see eachother cause of the age gap.
We never met up that night cause it was late by the time the conversation was over, but we talked about seeing eachother a different day. I'm rethinking it now though, because while I don't care about being a "victim" (air quotes cause to me it doesn't feel like that and so I don't wanna claim it) I definitely don't want to be a predator.
My friend says I'm the predator because I was the one initiating everything in a situation that I know is wrong, which is true, but I don't feel like I've manipulated or pressured him in any way, and my intentions have never been to hurt, control, or take atvantage of him.
All of that to say, I need opinions and explanations. Please tell me what yall think about this situation and if I'm being a predator because If that really is the case I need to be more aware of what I'm doing. The last thing I want is to take atvantage of someone-
How is it that random idiots on YouTube can make people dying into politics? How is it that we (America) are just casually proceeding with elections like everything is normal when there are multiple wars happening? We’re the land of the free because of the brave, and yet not a single person is brave enough to get it together. People are dead because of hurricanes. People are dead because we’re not meddling in international affairs. Forgive me for not really caring about whatever FEMA is or isn’t doing, whatever’s going on with the borders, I genuinely don’t care. I simply cannot fathom how we’re acting like everything is fine when all this is happening, and I’m not just upset. I’m absolutely furious. How is it that modern government doesn’t take care of their own people, isn’t brave enough to stop wars internationally like we used to, and is so unfathomably boned that they take from their own people, yet don’t help the people they’re taking from? I apologize if this is the wrong place, and my intention isn’t to offend, but I needed a place to drop the ‘hunky dory’ mentality and vent.
Okay so I was "hired" to work at a job recently but I never received any official training for it and when asked about being given my schedule....I haven't received any yet. This is the first job that's ever done this to me. I wanted to know about that because I've decided not to continue working there. It feels like they're so slow to put a schedule together and when asked.... they're too busy to make one. I understand that they work at multiple stores and have a family but ...this all feels....off to me. Can anyone help me with this one?
Ok so I was wondering what y’all think. If a woman rapes a man and forces him to impregnate her, does the man have the right to tell her or make the woman have an abortion so he doesn’t get stuck paying child support and have a constant reminder of a traumatic event? Or does the woman have the right to say no because it’s her body so she can decide whether to have the baby or not?
So, I was reading up on how some top athletes stay at the peak of their game, and I came across something interesting...Turns out, a lot of them don’t just drink regular water, it’s like SUPER filtered water that’s also had minerals added back in...As I was looking into it, I kept seeing this water filter pop up especially…Figured if it’s good enough for the pros, it might be worth trying, so I decided to order one and just do the monthly payments to make it more affordable. Waiting for it to get here, does anyone else have this brand already?
I know the question is bad I know but I have a reason
I in my OWN OPINION will not and Never will because they nearly killed me when I did want sex
Quick story, I went here and wanted sex, and I spent $200+ on scammers that I didn't know was scammers and I was outside 10+ miles away from home stranded in the middle of Winter and nearly froze to death, so I have made it my own opinion to Never support those kinds of people because of Trauma
I just got hit in my leg with a stun gun inside of my pocket and I'm super worried,both of my parents are medical proffesionals and my brother is studying to become one and he told me that I'll mostly be fine but what do I do now
Whats stronger Pride or Guilty
I dont know whats been going on, since last year (may) i havent been able to feel emotion other than anger and similar stuff to that. Started right around the same time i had a mental breakdown. But in that same time frame i also took shrooms. I smoke a lot of za and used to do nic. I honestly just want to know if ill ever be able to feel love again. I wish i could get definitive answers because i dont want to live a life of no feelings just working until i die. I have a gf and i know i love her but i only feel from the memories of our first week together. Its not like i dont like her either because i havent felt any emotions for any other girl. Shit sucks ngl.
