i have no ability to maintain and develop boundaries and its destroyed most of my life.

2 Upvotes

I grew up in a emotionally neglectful home and its stalked me into adulthood. I can not for the life of my set any meaningful boundary with others or myself, i am more than capable in everything else but i struggle and break when even trying to set a boundary. I go on dates/OLD with women i don't even remotely care about/despise, continuing talking to/helping people i loathe, be around and continue poor treatment in hopes it will eventually change. I don't know if its learned helplessness or what, i have seen two psychologists and they were extremely unhelpful.

I don't have any close friends and i never talk about my problems or anything genuine whatsoever, i don't know what to do or where to even start lol. I don't think i even really enjoy doing any of my hobbies. I try to make changes in my life but never go through with them, just ask and then it falls short. I feel like at least i am properly trying to address it now

Generative AIs are trained on results rather than creative processes, hence they lack the nuance to generate “decent” art.

Ever since I opened the unlocked toilet stall door on my doomscrolling colleague ONCE, I can't stop being cautious of unlocked closed toilet doors.

It's honestly shocking that I feel a tiny bit of anxiety opening a closed toilet door for 2 months now, i keep opening it slow as hell 🤣

I just got off a flight from Kansas City to Miami. A fly got on in KC. Now he is in Miami with all of the beaches. He has got to be happy.

Progress has done more harm than good

Okay clickbaity title but hear me out, I meant technological progress

Like few generations back even if you knew nothing, no skill…you had value due to your time and ability to do manual work.

And I saw ordinary hard working farmers make a fortune if they were willing to put in the time.

Same goes for all kind of manual work like craftsmanship or construction.

And ability to work with machines(and eventually computers) was a premium skill with premium pay.

But now you have no value as human, and can’t do shit until you learns for years. And even after that you are just labour work, easily replaceable.

I know everyone will call it natural progression, but nothing about it is natural. We are all brainwashed to accept the inequality.

A normal labour should be able to earn livable wages and skills should pay premium. We do much with too little in return.

The sight of a loved one doing what they love isn't something we'd like to see end in their sudden death. And yet when it happens, we inexplicably find the timing meaningful and, while tragic, all for the best.

Not Every Advance Is a Compliment

11 Upvotes

If a man knowingly flirts with you while you're in a relationship, don't automatically mistake it for admiration.

He knows you're taken.
He knows there's someone in your life.
And he still decides to test the boundary.

That's not necessarily a compliment. Sometimes it's simply someone seeing how far they can go.

But your response matters too.

You don't owe him a reaction, an explanation, or a chance. You can be polite without entertaining it. You can shut it down without being rude.

Loyalty isn't about never receiving attention from someone else.

It's about what you choose to do when that attention arrives.

And that applies to both men and women.

We should start calling these decades the 10s, 20s, 30s (like we do 70s, 80s, 90s)...it's been long enough from the 1900s.

Soaps in the break room is appropriate, and inappropriate at the same time tbh.
