So, I'm gonna tell you a story.

The country I was born in is a dictatorship. Life was shit. I left when I was a kid to a country with more freedoms. I grew up to learn what freedom meant. Then when I was 18, I decided to return to the place of my birth and lead a rebellion against the dictator that tyrannized my country and the tyrant was defeated and everyone lived happily ever after.

Just kidding (the italicized part is false), I just lived a boring life in the new country as a background character, and my parents are abusive, I had zero friends, and my new country is also becoming a dictatorship, and everything is falling apart, and I have zero qualities of what a movie hero has, I never felt brave enough to attend a protest because I fear torture as a non-native-born citizen, and I have no power to stop anything and I'm gonna die in a gulag, the end.

I mean... see... the second story is so boring, that why we wanna imagine a world where the first scenario happens. Otherwise the world is just too dark without any beacon of hope.

I prefer Lemmings, I like them deep fried ๐Ÿ˜‹

Obsessing about the different timelines/parallel-universes where I actually became good at things; Obsessively good at it... ๐Ÿซ 

I mean that is a technically correct answer, but they'll just delete it because they can't have a bunch of wikipedia pages about every person in the world.

 

Kinda getting jealous of people with wikipedia pages. I want my own, but I don't want to be known for something bad (such as mass murderers). What's the easiest method?

Yes I am a human, I love human things like... um... music...

Without password managers: You either have weak passwords, or you constantly forget passwords and get locked out of your accounts.

Or you can remember the password to your email then use that to reset passwords every time and slam your head on the keyboard to generate a random password that you won't need to remember because you'll just reset it next time, but then its a hassle and you are relying on one point of failure, and you could get locked out if you email stops working.

So in conclusion: Password Managers

They failed to take over the world using violence, so now they are secretly taking over peacefully using some open source code.

Prepare to be assimulated, resistance is futile.

Is this r/AITA and r/AmIOverreacting in a trenchcoat?

Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave.

And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be.

Real Sugar Coke in a glass bottle by Coca-Cola.

Other than that, some fastfood places have their fountain coca-cola formulas mixed just perfectly so that its on-par with the aforementioned, sometimes even slightly better, but those fountain versions is not consistent and sometimes it could be worse depending om the day and probably depending on how fresh the syrup is. (Because sometimes I feel like its pumping out the last few drops of the cola syrup)

reddit doesn't let me use tor ๐Ÿ˜•

 

I'm about 12,950 Kilometers from my spawn point, according to Google Earth. That place is not "home" since I barely have any memories of it, and left the country during primary school.

 

I hope that day comes. I'd feel so relived.

 

How are you supposed to help the victim while simultaneously avoid being falsely accused of being the perpetrator?

 

I'm talking about those youtube videos.

Feels like lowkey copaganda to me.

 

Basically a roundabout way of asking: How much do people really care about you?

I know I could vanish for like 48 hours and my parents and older brother probably wouldn't even want to look for me (I'm around 18-25, not a minor so they have no legal responsibilities). Nobody in the world cares about me. I mean they already told me that in my face that if I went missing, they won't care.

 

Planes were used in the world wars, then we have 9/11. This is the post 9/11 era where air travel sucks so much.

Similarly:

Drones are now being used in the Russo-Ukrainian war. Eventually, there will be a "9/11" with multiple coordinated drone attacks and then the way drones are treated will be forever changed. Civillian ownership of drones will likely be heavily restricted or entirely banned.

History rhymes.

 

Watched too many sci-fi shows and kinda getting unsettling to think about.

 

Mine varies from like 4 to -5, with random flucturations into -7 to -8. I'd say it averages out at like -1.

 

Keyword: Reliably.

I could jump from a bridge, but just breaking my legs and end up paralyzed and its even more depressing.

Same thing with running into oncoming traffic.

So sad...

Earth is a torture chamber.
