    I think you demonstrated exactly why avoiding em dashes like the plague makes for hard to read sentences.

    Does anyone have any resources for learning how to do very beautiful clean technical drawings like this? I have some art skill but not the kind that translates to such clean techni…

    No these are not things people told me about. I know that. I mean from 3 onwards there is a steady stream of them that I remember clearly in exactly the same way I remember other t…

    I have memories from my whole life but only smatterings of them. When I say I have memories from being as toddler it's like a few here and there.

    You are way over confident. I definitely have memories from 2 onwards and I know I remember them because I remember relaying them to people at age 4 onwards, by which point my memo…

    Yeah I'm always shocked that there's a general assumption that people don't remember things before the age of 5. I remember some things from 2 years old and everything is pretty cl…

    Yeah I always think being a baby or toddler must be endlessly frustrating. Imagine having absolutely no words to communicate your need and no idea how to do anything. I've said thi…

    This looks really really cool but I do hate everything being subscriptions. Everyone trying to be a digital landlord out here. Just sell me something.

    I dunno how what you're saying negates my point. I was actually gonna add that the same thing can be said of Asia, which even more so needs to be split into quadrants to find clear…

    bro, that's not what I mean. What I mean is this guy really thinks his culture did not effect him. Trust me, if you went to Japan and acted exactly as your American upbringing tell…

    Honestly, yes this guy's comment screams white guy growing up in a white culture. Like... do you really think your culture is a default and you would've been like you are without y…

    They're really not. Europe is diverse enough that you need to split it into quadrants to decide what countries are relatively similar. Like is Finland similar to Germany from an ou…

    I feel like when I flip a physical coin it pretty much always lands on exactly the same side unless I flip it real wierd.

    True, more interesting things happen when you close your eyes.

    This is 100% not what psychedelics look like. It's generally just mildly more saturated colours and the feeling that everything is possibly breathing or swaying in a more natural w…

    Yeah I mean I wasn't doing things like this. I was constantly frustrated because I didn't have any resources to achieve the things I wanted. Didn't even have a half decent computer…

    That's why the pouches are good. They reduce your craving, therefore making the act of smoking seem less necessary. Of course, the act itself is still appealing, but then you can w…

    Nicotine pouches are okay, I would advise against vape though. Vape is honestly more addictive than cigarettes and I find, in large volumes, the vapour still affects my lung functi…

    I dunno. I only succeeded as a kid academically because of literally my IQ not because I had grit learnt from my projects. I pathologically hated being told what to do so the deter…

    I'm saying this in comparison to other forms of English. In comparison to their British English versions, these phrases make no logical sense. That is just true. There's a direct a…
