Yeah I can rationalize how one storeight stay open in an area, but 3 of them? With the rent in that shopping center there was no goddamn way they were paying employees and keeping the lights on.

I have long held the belief that all these mattress stores are all a front for something.

There's a shopping center nearby that has three of them. THREE MATTRESS STORES WITHIN THROWING DISTANCE OF EACH OTHER.

Mattresses are like a once every 10 years purchase. How the fuck is there enough foot traffic to support 3 of them mother fuckers that close together?

When I worked across the street from them I never saw any of them having big sales or anything. Nobody I knew anyone that worked at any of them. They never seemed busy. Never saw trucks bringing in stock.

It doesn't add up.

I'm a tad older than you, but I also had all my long term relationships come out of prior friendships. Dating is straight up toxic nowadays. Dry one-sided conversations where you feel you're the only one even making an attempt. Women randomly ghosting you after what seemed like good interactions. Some women who seemed genuinely interested vanished or got hostile when I suggested we split the bill on a first date. Women who's profiles say they are looking for relationships but when you talk it's clear they just want to hook up or try and use you as a wallet. Women who agree to dates and cancel when you're already driving to the restaurant or at the restaurant. Or worse the ones that just don't even show up or respond despite planning a date.

It's just exhausting and sad. At least as an average looking dude with a normal job and life. So many women these days seem to expect to be taken to HELLA fancy restaurants or they get offended when you try and take them to something slightly unusual/unique.

I deleted all the dating profiles awhile ago and I've felt so much better. At this point in my life I'm just gonna do my own thing and if I happen to bump into someone I won't fight it, but actively attempting to date had pushed me closer to suicide than anything since my deep COVID depression or highschool.

Best of luck out there man. It's a shit show for all of us don't worry.

Nail polish. Couple layers of black and you can tune in how dark you want it

Wait is that true? I hit 104 like once every 3 months. I've been having regular fevers every month or so since I was like 7 and every couple times they get baaaad.

5 and I know this because it's the fork that lives in my room at all times because it's my favorite fork and I don't like when someone else dirties it or misplaces it. It's my desk fork. Always ready for leftovers or door dash. It's the perfect fork.

Once you learn what all the weird sounds are that you hear at night other people's ghost stories all start to make a lot more sense.

Every single personal story about ghosts I've heard can be explained with science.

I'm open to being wrong about it as I am with most things, but scientifically there doesn't appear to be any water held up in that one.

The sopranos. I got halfway through season 2 and decided I just didn't give a shit about finishing it.

I feel like it was a show that was greatly helped by the once a week group viewing era.

I have told the few people I trust enough that the only reason I'm still here is because I know it would hurt them if I left.

I stopped caring way before covid. It's just gotten worse since.

You won't know if you don't ask.

People fear rejection or embarrassment for asking other people questions but once you realize that it's the most efficient way to navigate life it really helps. Saves you time and energy. Often saves you emotional energy as well in the long run.

If you like someone just ask them.

If you want to know where someone got something or learned a skill just ask them.

Curiosity is important and I feel so many people are so socially anxious that they will just try and Google and Google as opposed to entering into a simple verbal exchange with a stranger or something.

If I'm paying the bills the AC is set to 72 in the summer and the heat is set to 66 in the winter.

If I'm not paying the bills the AC is set to 66 when it's hot and the heat is set to 72 when it's cold.

Should I play this one first or can I just go straight to the new one that came out a few months ago?

 

I have heard people say "would you rather share your emotions with a woman you know or a tree in the woods", but that doesn't really feel like it's an equal question in my head. I am curious if anyone has a better example of the "mens" version of that question.

 

Before anyone gets the wrong idea I am one of those peoples who's mantra is "I would rather have it and not need it than the other way around".

In that vein I daily a backpack that has thousands of dollars in tools, electronics and survival stuff in it at all times. I'm talking I could survive a complete collapse of society for quite some time with what I keep in that bag every day kinda deal.

The one thing that concerns me is the bag getting grabbed one day. I could replace everything in there but I would prefer to avoid spending all that money and time setting it all up again. I keep it with me as much as I reasonably can, but obviously I can't take it with me into places like concerts or events. During those times I have it stashed in a hidden compartment in my trunk so it's unlikely it would get taken in a smash and grab, but I would feel much better if I was able to keep track of the bags location at all times.

It seems like the small gps tracker market is basically small tags like the tile or air tag and then it immediately jumps to like thousands of dollars and subscriptions.

I am aware that this mythical tracker might not exist at all, but if anyone would know of one it's you nerds (I call yall nerds lovingly).

 

So I'm not 100% sure this is the right sub for this but I couldn't really find another sort of mod abuse sub that had actual users. I recognize that I am most certainly an asshole in this situation, but I got banned Fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com for a misogynistic comment I left on a completely different sub.

imogen_underscore in that same thread made multiple death threats against me and has only received a 7 day ban. So I want to be clear here that in their eyes a misogynistic comment left on an entirely different sub is WORSE than death threats left in your own sub?

 

I apologize if this isn't the best place to ask this question. I have been looking everywhere for more classical/orchestral music and EDM hybrids, but nothing has come close to this song.

I saw there were music subs but they didn't really seem like the place where you ask about finding new music.

Again apologies if this isn't the best sub for this question I just didn't know where else to ask.

 

I'm talking like Ursula or the French spider from from James and the giant peach. Don't give me some conventionally attractive humans (though humans are totally allowed) please.

Personally mine was Goldie from Rock-a-doodle. I probably watched that movie 100 times on VHS as a kid.

 

Not sure if this is even possible but I am new here and I figured out that sorting "everything" by recent comments generally seems to be the best way to get new stuff that's getting talked about still, but it also appears to include brand new posts that come from bots that have zero comments and while I'm not against those posts I prefer to see stuff that has other users actively engaging in the comments as opposed to empty comment sections on bot posts.
