There is no relation to alt-Right, it was just a joke about keyboard buttons.

Alt and Ctrl are both buttons on your keyboard, the joke was that if there was an Alt-Right then there's a Ctrl-Left. It just so happened that Ctrl-Left is an actual keyboard shortcut.

also it's supposed to be a parody on there being such thing as Alt-Left.

Alt-right is also a keyboard shortcut in most web browswers.  Alt-left goes back a page in your history, and alt-right goes forward a page.

Hello, i was sorta lost in thought about a topic that has plagued me for many years. It's a topic that is rather close to me, even if i wish it wasn't such an issue.

People Pleasing

I am a people pleaser, i have in the past put a lot of stock and self worth in how much i could service those around me, and in a way i lose alot of my own agency to them doing so. When i am in the company of friends, family, school, or aquaintances, i find myself struggling keeping myself grounded, and also making sure that people around me are satisfied.

you maybe thinking "Well that sounds super nice of you! It's very considerate of you. why would you want to fix THAT problem then?"

well let me tell you that it is a serious issue that has caused me more harm than good in my life. There is a stark difference between being a nice person who wants to help and do good unto others, and a person who feels like it's life or death and that their lives more or less depend on serving others. It can be hellish to be around people for that reason alone.

it's part of Codependency, or unhealthy relationships where one person feels that they have to always do good unto the other person in unhealthy levels. In my experience, it was dealing with a mentally unstable mother. She is gone, but the overall effects remain unfortunately

now, before you give an answer of "stop caring, stop giving a shit" or anything of that ilk. i do like it when i am helpful, and i love the idea of being happy and wanting to give unto others of my own agency. But it's hard to seperate that want from the extreme need.

Introspection is often a good thing. Making this thread was a good idea, I think. Some thoughtful discussion.

That sounds like a nice day. I slept until 3 then went out for food and that's all I've done the entire day.

I too am having to lean on my family for a lot of support currently. There is no shame in it.

I know that it is very hard dear and I know that sometimes what we want is the worst thing for us.

But we keep trying each day because we are worth it, because tomorrow is a new day to overcome yesterday and to make a path you want to walk.

All will be well my brother.

i really do think you are right, but there is still a big part of me that wishes i could just let my dad live his life without having to be on his tab so to speak. i see many people that i went to school with with careers, married, some have kids already, and then seeing people that have done far greater things than i have in their lives than i have. it's hard not to feel down on myself sometimes…

it's not that i don't think my decisions are bad things for me, but i just see too much risk in them. Like if it fails, then i would end up worst off than i already am, sort of like that

Update from the first day!

I made it through the first day of the Shadowrun Tournament!

And also: today is the Great Ghost Dance! In Shadowrun, it's the mass awakening! Magic is back in the world again! And the tournament is called the Great Ghost Dance!

I almost bought myself a Perfect Grade Unicorn, but instead I found a full boost Master Grade Exia, so I got that for me.

Tomorrow I'll be wearing the first costume of the weekend, and going into the second day of the tournament.

To give you an idea of how ridiculous the power-scaling in Dragon Ball Super has become, let's take a look at Freiza. During the "Golden Freiza Saga", the recently resurrected Freiza is able to reach a level of power capable of fighting a Super Saiyan Blue after training for just four months.

A Super Saiyan Blue is roughly 300 million times stronger than Freiza was at the time of his death. Assuming Freiza trained non-stop without eating or sleeping for that entire four months, he would have had to get 100,000 times stronger every hour. To put that in perspective, this means that Freiza could have fought Vegito (the absolute strongest character in  the original run of DBZ) after training for just 3 minutes.

Hello my wonderful friends! i hope you are well! i had an idea for a thread!

many of us have come across things in our lives or in our studies that seem so strange or counter intuitive, yet are completely true. This is a thread for those oddities and surreal realities that we have and want to share with the world

I'll start

When you habitually exercise, it eventually starts to feel REALLY good!

i know many of you when you hear the word "exercise", many think of sweating, their muscles hurting, and their lungs on fire and exploding. it's not hard to think of all the terrible feelings that come with working out, and for the first couple weeks of working out, it's sorta true.

but once you break that threshold, and get to the point where it no longer feels painful to do your workout, that's when it gets fun!

You will want to do it more, to move your muscles, and to push yourself more and more! your brain will be flooded with endorphins and you will reach a greater state of mind! working out is the best anti-depressant after all!

pretty soon you will feel that the small amount of work you did is not enough, and you will want to increase your workout load, and then suddenly, you are out there 5-6 days a week for at least an hour doing something, and you will be super happy!

Hmm… Well, there's a bunch, actually! "Skeptoid" is very good for bite-sized yet indepth investigations of specific topics, and then there's everything the Merseyside Skeptics Society (the guys behind the campaign to get rid of homeopathy from the NHS in the UK) do. "Sceptics with a K" is their general show (of biggest interest lately is one of the host's continuing investigations into research about the placebo effect), and "Inkredulous" is their comedy panel one. They also do "Be Reasonable", where they have polite interviews with people from all sorts of fringes. That's 5 podcasts already together with TRC, so I think I'll leave the recommendation list at that, heh.

I had a friend like that once. He collected knives and the like, and had a good number of 'em. Even had a 13-inch fixed blade that he found on a beach somewhere. It was cool - except, of course, that it was also completely illegal, and if he had ever used it in self-defense, he would have been arrested along with the assaulter.

Where I come from, it's never a good idea to have weapons. That just encourages people to do more harm than they otherwise would. A sizable portion of our homeless population here came from mental health institutions which shut down and let everyone into the streets, so there's no guarantee that people will act rationally when threatened. Of course it's always good to be careful, but a quick "sorry" can usually defuse any hostile situation, whereas weapons just invite a challenge… in my experience, at least.

+1 on the concerts and the drunk thing. Again, not because getting blackout drunk is necessarily not a great thing to do, but you do get to see who sticks around and all that. Of course, it's not for everybody, worth keeping in mind.

But the few time sI've gone to music festivals with friends have definitely been highlights in my life.

if you truly are hoping to help people with their weight and health issues, then i suggest finding a program to volunteer or work for. maybe go to school for nutrition or medicine, and leave it to them.

because most of the people on sites like this are here to relax and get away from their stresses, and they don't need to be shamed or hurt in any way.

so unless they ask you specifically for advice, i would say your unsolicited advice is probably always gonna be hurting more than helping.

unless, being helpful is not your intention, in which case that is very shameful

I would say there is some tolerance on weight where it becomes a real health risk.

You can go up until a good chunk in obese to not be in dire peril.

Eating habits do matter. Body size? not so much as people would claim.

Since I had this discussion a while ago:

Can your employer at some point decide to reduce your salary?

Legally, where you live?
Do you think an employer should be allowed to do that?
Would you still work there if your employer cut a chunk of your income? If he tells you he can't afford giving you your current wage anymore?

Any stories you know about this?
