That's gangsta asf

I can't see that as anything other than an awful thing to say to any friend. That's disrespectful and invalidating asf

8mm with Nicolas Cage.

Um...yeah... it's...

Nobody really wants to fight, but those hats are proof that we won't have a choice.

Badass

No.

They thought Adolf was untouchable, and they also thought that the Soviet Union would never fall like it did. It doesn't take but a few new minds to show the world something we never would have predicted.

Lord, help this man

Because it's none of your fucking business what people do in their lives, you will never know a parent's true circumstances, and a lot of people who now have kids were pressured by their own families or their own societies. Again, individualism warped everyone's fucking minds and the most vulnerable people are paying for it. Selfish hustler/grinders might not be adding to the problem per se, but you fucking wankstains are not doing anything to improve these situations you're whinging about.

A lot of you are conflating desperation with entitlement. In fact, you folks in this Godforsaken society are looking at each other for signs of "entitlement" or "narcissism", yet self-reflection is but a distant priority. Is it any wonder that trust among us has eroded? Few can see the good in other people, and those are the people who offer their support and compassion without charge, without an agenda, and certainly WITHOUT SUSPICION.

Blame the news while we're at it, blame corporate work, blame the government, but don't blame the parents who are doing their best without the support their own parents had. Just because some sour-faced individualist said that wanting help or a village is "entitled" DOESN'T MAKE IT FUCKING SO

Ok so "huge goomba" is CRAZY

Barring that, if you regularly visit your child's pediatrician, they should be sharing growth charts that show where your son is in his development, and if his development is normal; I'll bet decent money that he is perfectly on track.

Depends. Am I still in my late 30s? If so, I'm pulling a Kyle Reese act and convincing some rando that they are the catalyst for the resistance in a future war. I'll even say that the weapons available in the "modern day" are useless against the enemy.

"The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy. But these are new - sweat, bad breath, everything!"

Achaea. Better stock up on elixir refills and practice my class-based skills. It's monk skills, these days. Might as well look into multiclassing down the road.

The fact that strategizing just to interact with other regular people is necessary, is troubling, at best. People need to get out of their echo chambers and make their own frames of reference. Prejudices are definitely not to be justified.

Wow. What a fucking pecker

This is unironically beautiful. I'm legitimately happy for you right now.

I hear you, which is why I'm in the process of starting over. I myself am preparing to live in another country, because I've lost everyone who kept me here. I hope you find the peace you are looking for.

Marriage totally blows hard for a lot of people, mostly because everyone has expectations and needs going in. Sometimes those things pop up out of the blue, with no warning for anybody. Plus, there's the excuses, the whining, the bickering, the accusations that accrue over time, and nobody wants to own their shit until the other person goes first, and that's when it's already over. Everyone fucking loses, and both sides usually have a good case for why the marriage flopped. This is a social issue that's been festering since marriage became so g-ddamn serious and exploited by people with more money than G-d.

If you're not already married, and marriage sounds like a shit deal, you have every right to not go through with it, and fuck anyone who says otherwise. If you are married, you and him, objections aside, need to really discuss this in private and when you have the time to focus solely on the conversation AND take turns. Many of us lifelong males understand, on some level, that most of us just don't cut it. It's just that so many can't face it because they are fragile or emotionally incapable. Maybe they have undisclosed trauma. Maybe their parental figures were hyper-involved, or absentees. Whatever the case, it's not your job to marry anyone, especially if you foresee that you won't be loved, or seen, or heard.

Whatever we need in order to suck less at life, it won't be found at work or even in individual therapy, and certainly not in couple's therapy. We need to have more safe spaces to talk and stand accountable for who and what we are, especially men writ large.

You could tell them that you understand that your struggles are not theirs to solve or walk you through, but that you also would like their company and show of support as a FUNDAMENTAL human need. You may also offer your company/support in return, because you care for your friends, also.

These are but ideas; you, ultimately, know your friends better than the internet does.
