  • I’m 39 but I had to pay for a new copy of my birth certificate in my 20s because mine was literally falling apart due to just being old and folded up and printed on weird paper and the seal was messed up so the dmv wouldn’t take it

    I got it from my mom like that :x




  • My only real gripe with discord (off the top of my head anyway) is that why tf when the “new” button pops up does it just scroll down the server list instead of just actually taking me to the server and the post causing the notification

    It doesn’t even actually ever go to the right spot on the server list it just goes way down and then I have to usually go back up to get to it


  • I had this weird hardware issue with my desktop and I could not find results for it on Google about a year ago, and I had searched for it a bunch of times previously as well and couldn’t find anything relevant. My boyfriend searched for it on Google on his computer and found a result with the information we needed and i immediately fixed it.

    Guessing my “custom” results were poisoned by something at some time, but it prevented me from finding the answer I needed, and I didn’t think to log out at the time.

    Super done with Google tbh





  • I’m not so sure, I saw this short the other day of this Gen z woman with a caption that said something like “you can tell gen z from millennial by the rise of their jeans” with her wearing mid rise (labeled low) and high rise jeans, and the comments were full of millennial women pointing out that in the 90s the low rise was like way way way low (which they were) or that millennial wore low rise first, or that it was a bad style or whatever input they felt they needed to give

    And I realized this Gen z girl doesn’t care about any of this, and is actually quite clever, she’s just effectively gotten an insane amount of engagement and is positioning herself as an influencer because much of my generation are idiots and are commenting and reacting on her stuff over the rise of pants


  • Some I haven’t seen after scrolling for a while

    Maangchi - she made me fall in love with Korean food

    Future Canoe - only if you want radioactive chicken

    Explanation Point - mostly reviews anime. Good style, recovered incel

    Scamboli Reviews - mostly reviews anime also, IDK

    Joov (IDK is he high quality)

    North of the Border - umm clay art. Just watched reverse centaur, it was a thing indeed

    Unresolved Textual Tension - book reviews, I’m here for Will’s sass but Maria and Katie are good too

    Ordinary Sausage - actually extraordinary

    John Maclean - I wish I was as pretty as he is

    Steve Mould - my son says he is “Steve Mould the science gold” (to the tune of Bill Nye)

    I’m probably missing somebody but this is a good weird list




  • There is no way rich people are less happy than the average poor person bar mental health conditions, they may have stressors like a demanding job, but that is nothing compared to whether or not you’ll lose everything if you get too sick, or whether you can pay the bills because you didn’t get enough hours at one of your jobs, or if you have enough food to feed your family. Wealth gives so much more opportunity to fulfill desires and become happy.

    Have you ever been actually poor? Have you ever been homeless or lived in a shelter? I can’t help but feel like your words may be that of privilege.

    “Being rich is not good” is a very naive take. Being rich means less stress and more opportunities.
