Nothing changes, except for more legal independence and liability.

Skip on smoking. It’s literally burning your money away.

Separate work from life and join a union if you can, or support them. Don’t bust yourself with hatred, fear, or concern over things that you can’t personally affect.

Financially, spare money, and prepare your own food. And … find your own joy in life.

Subtle cosmic horror. The implications.

For example, image diving into a deep ocean, and it gets darker, until there is no light left - and a few lights dint somewhere, and you dive on.

It could be that the story mentions the lights very casually, as nothing relevant, merely for detail; but that you sense hints of the water vibrating, knowing not whence it comes.

What is it? The reader is left to interpret. Is it a large sea monster? Merely a few bioluminescent worms swimming by? Are you making up things?

Nobody knows; and that fear is the unknown.

OsmAnd does have a CarPlay option. Dunno about Organic Maps and its forks.

Might be worth looking deeper into it though, in why the forkers hate the dev.

For me it works perfectly. Try out Organic Maps or one of its forks then?

Organic Maps or OsmAnd is out there, just saying.

Yup, it combats echo instances better this way. And if one instance gets seized by a tyrant, then there is an alternative.

This could be a What if? Horror Edition for xkcd.

I dunno, God didn’t help my grandfather from not having to witness people getting shot by the Nazis. Priests that rape little children also don’t terribly help with life.

Faith helps more with combatting fear of your own death. But it won’t help you with getting good sex, as a lot of (especially Protestant) Christianity is very puritan.

You’ll repress yourself only further by doing this, just saying. There’s no harm or shame in visiting prostitutes, trying to figure out what kind of consensual sex you like, or going to a therapist for your wellbeing, that’s all valid.

Fear of intimacy will stop you from finding relationships that do not revolve around hurt and use. You will find one with time.

I’m Christian. Like I said, you should not judge too hastily, and you did.

As a woman in a relationship, I certainly don’t want to be chased (neither did I want it before the relationship started). I’m more attracted to people that treat me as a person, not as a fuck object. View it like this.

Would you want someone to have a relationship with you only because you’re rich? Or because you’re a good person? True love is not what is centered around your body or what you have, but who you are. Your family loves you for who you are. And that feels good, right? Give that back to others, and that will help. Do not judge in haste and that will also help.

Friendship is a good way. It sounds paradoxical, but letting go of the idea of needing a partner and accepting that, makes you find a partner much quickier. Gals love guys that treat them like other guys (though avoid body-based compliments).

It’s how most of my guy friends found theirs. You can achieve it, but God will not help you with your goals. It’ll put you in a pit of deeper misery and grows hatred.

Call me super dumb (and please do call me out if so), but whar about an inverse method, where the default is blacklisted, and you’d have to individually whitelist?

Could it work that way? Actually, hm… wouldn’t that be akin to a sort of shadowban?

And unblocked. Interesting. When I blocked you, I couldn’t see my own comment made to you anymore, nor your comment. Couldn’t find or up-/downvote you.

But for you inversely, it works. Interesting.

Hmm, I’ll test it out with you. I’ll block you and 30 min later I’ll unblock you. See if you can see me in the meantime.

Or Ubykh.

Such a pretty language. I should learn it someday!

Lojban, it’s culturally neutral, and that makes it all the more nice. Plus it’s got an interesting punctuation style.

She’s an hero, that’s she.
