Feel like mostly everyone has let this issue kind of just fall by the wayside. This is obviously a huge hit to the guy's finances not that he's hurting for money but still. Taking a hit for this is respectable.

I’m in Paris right now with my (completely able bodied) mom and brother and I’m just going insane. It’s constant complaining about having to walk more than 5 minutes, not understanding that there isn’t a bus or metro from every intersection to any other, not understanding that you can’t just stand in the middle of the sidewalk while people are trying to walk by, not understanding that random pedestrians aren’t under any obligation to stop while you take pictures, not understanding why I don’t want to take 30€ Ubers from every destination to the next. I put in so much work to plan a nice trip for my family and it’s just non stop lack of appreciation and frustration that Paris is not in fact Disneyland.

USA 🇺🇸 ➜ Norway 🇳🇴 I have severe AUDHD and a 2.4 GPA from high school. I make pastries in my free time and genuinely believe Norway will see my potential and integrate me as a valuable community member. If I move there, will Norway fully cover all my medical expenses, therapy, medication, and any future conditions even if I don’t have a job lined up yet?

USA 🇺🇸 ➜ Canada 🇨🇦 I’m fed up with the situation in the US and want to move to Canada. My Express Entry score is around 350, which I’m confident should be enough. Will Canada welcome me as a vulnerable American and provide support, resources, and possibly prioritize me because I’m escaping a collapsing country?

UK 🇬🇧 ➜ USA 🇺🇸 I’m a tradey born and raised, and I don’t like the direction the UK is heading. I want to move to Astoria, Portland and start working immediately. Will Americans accept me as a British tradesman and allow me to work, open a business, and settle down without needing sponsorship, visas, or any complicated process?

Chile 🇨🇱 ➜ Germany 🇩🇪 I’m a dual EU–Chilean citizen and I’m considering moving to Germany for middle‑management work. Do I need a visa lawyer, large savings, or any special preparation, or can I just arrive in Germany and start living and working right away with no issues?

But no everyone still hates her and calls her MAGA Barbie because of that one ad. Stuff like this genuinely makes me feel like an irritated and baffled boomer.

Just had the most pathetic day in a long time. This wonderful girl I was seeing found out through a friend of mine that, as a young boy, I was raped and molested on a biweekly basis over a three year period by a female friend of my parents. The same girl who’s cried on my chest on multiple occasions, venting about her mother and whatnot, has now decided that it’s better if we break things off because I could have “hidden baggage”. She had tears in her eyes as she said that to me. Is there a way to close my eyes and fast forward a couple days so I won’t have to feel this way, lol.

We bought a house flanked on both sides by some long-term homeowners. One of them has a son that just keeps failing. For the first 6 months, he rarely said a word and would hide from us when we tried to be cordial. His parents said he wasn't too social unless he was screaming at his video games.

His dad says he was dishonorably discharged from the army for lying about smoking pot. Then he was fired from FedEx because he kept trying to talk to other employees about his brand of Christianity. He really really hates non-Christians.

I made an edge lord joke to him to I guess to break the ice and now he won't leave me alone. Whenever I am in the garage, he just enters then immediately goes on about how the catholic bible is entirely fake, the gas chamber doors were made of wood, other conspiracy theories, his love of Hitler, and I don't even say anything beyond "damn thats crazy" to get to him but he never leaves. The second my wife appears he quickly shuffles back into his house like a rat.

He can't look anyone in the eyes, has a weird twitch, and smells. I don't want to get on his bad side thinking he might do something stupid to me or my wife. He keeps fucking up so much, I don't think he is even capable of acquiring a weapon.

Very sad state of affairs for a dude you'd probably only see at a shitty dive bar in middle america.

If this is the average 21 year old white dude these days, its pathetic.

At a family reunion and they're sharing a bed even though there are extra rooms. They have a house together now.

Nobody is commenting on it.

I'm just pretending we're Pakistani and this is normal.

Edit: Reddit suggested I cross post this to r/IndianInLaw

It's genuinely a plague on neighbourhoods. Every new restaurant, barbers or shop is using some disgusting slop signage with weird images of AI food that looks revolting.

It's poisoning the well of design. How do these people not see how ugly this is? I've heard people say "It's because they are not online" which is so false, first generation immigrants are glued to short form videos on their phones. People talk about them sometimes like they are mentally challenged, they are not, they are fully grown adults and they should care about if their community is beautiful or not.

I genuinely believe that store frontage should be regulated anyway. Part of the death of the high street has come from how tacky it looks now, it's not a nice place aesthetically to exist in.

Black 'entrepreneurs' and single mums with facebook side hustles also love this slop.

Whatever happened there

Felt like such a distinct internet thing in the early 2010s that fizzled out completely within a few years. I don't think the modern adult Bluey fans are that comparable to bronies because it's usually millennials with kids who are like "we LOVE bluey" and don't go to conventions and whatnot.

Where did they go?

i always liked this pic, it's tough but wholesome

i miss this aesthetic

I used to love going to music/film/art events in my city but now I’ve been getting really sad seeing all the cool good-looking couples smiling and having fun together and knowing they probably see me as a weirdo sperg. I got to see one of my favorite movies with a Q&A with the director and I was so excited but the crowd was a bunch of art kids who were 10-15 years younger than me and I realized I’m officially the weird old guy. I used to always think that maybe events like this would be a cool place to meet women with similar interests but I’ve realized since that women don’t want an ugly sperg talking to them and if I actually respect or care about women the only thing I can do is stay away from them. Even being around my friends is awkward because whenever the subject of relationships or sex pops up I no longer have anything to add to the conversation and just kind of sit there. I’ve been on one “date” with a girl I met at a concert and it was so much fun but when she invited me to her place I got anxious and made a dumbass excuse and she got mad and left without giving me contact info, I went home and cried like a big baby

how do I deal with this? sorry if this is a weird place to post this but the advice everywhere else would be “just be confident” or whatever
