They need to YouTube a few meditation videos so they can become experts in mindfulness and not worry about all that /s

There’s always someone else we can blame. Door Dash execs can just say if they don’t deliver then one of their competitors will. Everyone’s being shitty and it’s no one’s fault.

That’s kind of the cruelty of capitalism. You can coerce people do unsafe or unpleasant things, but it gets framed as a favour because hey they’re getting paid.

Whereas if the person you were paying was truly comfortable and didn’t need money for survival, there is a chance that they would forego working on that kind of night.

That’s fascinating that you have so many parties. Do parties not have a lot of power at the “federal” level? Also curious if you have coalitions between similarly aligned parties!

Yeah, but as others have said, your “true” life is both those periods of pause and play. Better way to look at it imho is how much you do for others vs yourself, and if you’re happy with that split.

I would consider your future self an other person as well, though obviously you do want to look after them.

Nice. Thanks for sharing

Desire paths

I usually try to stick reasonably closely to the recipe the first time I’m trying something out. That way if I don’t like the result, I know it’s not just that I ruined the recipe with my modifications.

I think the smaller communities helps with giving eachother the benefit of the doubt. Like if I’m disagreeing with someone from my own insurance, or another small one I know is generally cool, I’ll try much harder to figure out what their point is.

There’s a fine line between satire and being an idiot but on purpose.

Yuh

It’s the “someone is wrong on the internet” one

Increasingly, I find the answer is in the comments, or not at all

I’m changing my answer. I meant to “it has” so everyone please reread my comment now, with this new interpretation in mind. Thank’s.

Ah this is a classic language misunderstanding. “Isn’t necessarily” means “possibly not [thing]” or “doesn’t have to be” or “may or may not be” but doesn’t have much bearing on probabilities.

That’s how people usually use that term in English anyway.

EDIT sorry didn’t mean to dogpile. I just saw that a couple other people already replied.

Oops

That’s not what they said though

… this situation isn’t necessarily anxiety

I don’t even have anxiety and I think this is relatable. It’s not even necessarily fear, but maybe not having the bandwidth to be social in that moment.

Spoons, etc

The absurd is the result of the mind’s contact with the universe, or it’s private parts
