Sounds about right.

No. I grew up with parents who cut me off from the entire world and now I can’t make friends without it getting awkward. It’s usually because I don’t know proper guy behavior, and they end up thinking I’m gay, but a new low was achieved recently, where I was actually the problem this time by leaning into the stereotype and freaking all the guys I know out.

I just grew tired of getting friends, hanging out the first time, and never getting a call back. Or, “if you need anything, let me know/hey bud, how’s it going?” Making random ass promises that we’d hang out. Then never following through. So I just leaned the hell into it. I don’t even remember what I said. A lot of the guys have stopped being friendly with me now though. Used to talk about their home countries and shit. It was just frustrating, trying to find authenticity and getting people who couldn’t see me as a person.

I was a better person when I was a kid.

I miss Yahoo Messenger, with all the chatrooms. Those were pretty steamy at times.

What sources does Google use for this? Because, if it’s web crawling, of course they aren’t going to show up.

That’s actually all true too. There’s a webring and gopher revival. Along with a modern luddite movement sweeping college campuses.

I’ll start: A psychologist

Considering everyone is in their own echo chamber, I’d say it’s pretty easy to miss things.

Lila still exists, whether I think of her or not.

I remember when they wanted to unify mobile phones and desktop computers, with a singular online storage account and DE that changed when you plugged your phone into a monitor. That shit was crazy.

The instance I’m on blocks a lot of NSFW content. So, I can’t subscribe to those communities.

My question then is, who helps those people?

If it is not the job others to attempt to “mend” broken hearts, whose is it?

Clearly.

I could go on.

The newer Looney Toons received high adult content ratings for adult outbursts and themes.

Why aren’t they qualified? Have they never had dark moments?

Do elaborate.

I see nothing wrong with therapy.

My problem is this generation’s incessant belief that negative emotions are bad.

Case and point: Watch the new live action Avatar series. Season I. I haven’t seen season II yet.

The only people with negative emotions are the bad guys. Everyone else is smiling constantly.

They’re stigmatizing something that’s perfectly fine to feel – as long as you’re actually feeling it.

This concerted effort of gurus and new age life advice influencers, telling people to suppress information, are all rich elitists who know what happens when the group shares information.

I work at a nursing home and all the residents order from DD. The food there is bland as hell.

I don’t need therapy. I needed a group.

I wasn’t the one that was damaged. Society was.
