How did you even get the idea you’re not “useful”? When I look at your profile, all I see is 90%+ upvoted posts, not that upvotes necessarily matter very much.

What helped me was roughly two beliefs:

1. That “worth” is not necessary, life is/humans are entirely fine existing without any concept of it
2. There are other people equally “unworthy” as me (or more) and I’d tell them it’s fine, so why wouldn’t I extend the same to me?

My salads often contain corn or nuts. There’s simply no way the shoveling abilities of a fork is harder than having to pick up small pieces with chopsticks.

And even the big leaves, how is stabbing down once and getting 5 leaves at the same time harder than doing more motions to “grab” the same amount of leaves?

How would they find out if you put it back immediately after using?

I’m AuDHD, and I feel like my autism loves baking, and my ADHD cooking.

I got a bad grade in history class because I couldn’t remember exact dates, only rough timeframes, like “world war 2 ended 1945” but I couldn’t say “8th May 1945”. This kind of stuff happened a lot of times in many different classes in different ways.

Btw the optimization for random walking of park guests makes for kinda shitty gameplay. Parks aren’t designed at all like real parks, and transportation rides are almost useless. It’s impressive for its time, yes, but the park simulation only visually looks good enough, it’s not really good enough.

If you play it like a model building game (not a theme park simulator) then it’s almost perfect.

Understandable :) I guess the closest would be to read/listen to experiences of other people feeling/experiencing the same thing as you, which certainly do exist.

I personally feel like it can’t be done in a healthy way. It’ll probably be manageable, but I personally think humans are so social that “healthy” is only possible if one is able to share their experience.

The whole concept of “degenerate” is irrelevant. It’s a way to control behavior of other people via shame.

Whatever you do is fine as long as you don’t hurt anyone else with it, so be as “degenerate” as you like!

I only watch stuff that’s done. I hate neverending stuff like the millionth episode of One Piece or such shit. I don’t like waiting on new episodes to arrive.

So when I watch something, I download it, and watch it. If I don’t remember in my mind where I’m at exactly, I just open an episode and see if I recognize it. If I don’t, I go back in the series, if I do, I go forward, until I’m at the episode that I haven’t watched yet.

Most of the time, I just know where I’m at. If I don’t, it takes like 30 sec max to find the place I’m in, less than the time it would take to enter my “watched” status on any service, and I only have to do that rarely.

I can’t really think of any cons or why I would use anything else. All those services are just wasted time/effort to me.

Just to be a little more detailed than other answers:

Like they said, they get eaten a lot, but they also reproduce a lot more. Think about something like dust in a room. Dust has no chance against your cleaning, when you wipe off a surface, the dust is gone. Same if something decides to eat the slug, the slug is eaten.

But when you clean a room, do you always clean absolutely everywhere? Did you clean the dust from the top of the lamps? The dust from below the carpet? While you were off cleaning one side of the room, didn’t some new dust already settle on the surfaces you just cleaned? And so on.

So yes, you’re absolutely correct in everything you say. But defending yourself is not necessary when there’s just so much of your species that they can’t all get eaten at the same time.

This implies that they are actually “speaking” in text, because over actual speech 10 said in base 10 would be “ten” and 10 said in base 2 would be “one zero”, i.e. not ambiguous at all.

My assumption is that they’d just be swept off with the wind and nothing else happening to them. But it depends if they hit the side of the car/the window frame once they go out, if they do, I assume it would end like the ones on my windshield, i.e. splat, if not, they just get accelerated to wind speed and once they are accelerated, it’s just like flying through 0 mph wind, even if relatively, they’re going 75 mph.

Beep boop, that’s just what a bot would say!

Well if I only get those two options it’d be SMS because I don’t do anything interesting enough for a government to spy on, but Google would benefit in knowing my contacts.

But the real answer would be, I would not message that person anymore.

I know it’s hard, I also have lots of experience getting over fears. I was myself extremely socially afraid and afraid of all kinds of things in a less severe manner.

I have an Singaporean girlfriend right now who is similar, who I’m helping through it as well.

Believe me, I know the struggle. It’s so unbelievably hard to do things you’re afraid of and the main problem is that it all happens inside your head. All the effort you’re putting in is basically invisible to an outsider. They might push you because they don’t see how much you’re already doing, which just makes it worse because you start feeling like you should be doing more, and then on top of feeling afraid you also feel like shit because you do “so little”, which is not little at all.

You can do it, I believe in you :D if you want any more words, I’m here, I don’t wanna ramble on and on lol

The separation anxiety doesn’t go away if you don’t separate sometimes.

I didn’t even make any argument for or against AI, just an argument regarding your behavior.

This clearly shows that you are willing to talk out of your ass. The early Internet was filled with some of the smartest people alive, the mass of shitty content did not arrive yet because it wasn’t accessible to the masses. At the beginning, the Internet was literally only scientists. A little later, it was only very open people not scared to try something new and excited about the future and about foreign cultures, with corresponding amazing content.

Only after this initial period, when the internet became commonly used, did it turn shit. Stop trying to manifacture arguments for your position and truly do what you acted like setting out to do, try to be open and try to understand other people’s concerns.
