The second I realise I’m dreaming I wake up.

I think it’s because the second I am some level of conscious the deep rooted anxiety starts again and jolts me up 🙂

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ve had moments of pure despair as I feel like one’s gonna tear me in half.

A real porcelain shatterer.

I actually know the differences between Asian languages just so that I can be better at racism.

I take it very seriously.

I looked into this before, but I found the options were too stripped down.

Ultimately I need:

• Maps
• Music streaming
• Web browser
• Email
• Wallet functionality

Then there are miscellaneous apps that I need as well, some that don’t have browser functionality (local bike rental app) or something like a workout tracker.

Thing is, if you start adding functionality for the above then it’s just a regular smart phone and there’s nothing stopping you using the apps you’re trying to avoid :/

Is there anyone on the internet who doesn’t know Daft Punk or at least this specific song 🤔

I feel like this is very dismissive and also ignores that lots of relationships do inevitably start with vague signals.

“Yeah, well, women have it worse so your feelings are irrelevant and it’s okay if they ghost you.”

As I said in my original comment, I get it. But it doesn’t take away from the fact that it’s a difficult situation for men.

Being dismissive of men’s feelings and not letting them talk about how dating is difficult for them isn’t helping anyone.

I get where they’re coming from, but it’s still not great being a guy and only getting vague signals that you’re trying to piece together. Ghosting is also another issue that’s honestly just disrespectful.

While it may ultimately be those man children who ruin it for everyone, some upfront honesty is generally very appreciated.

Yeah, but for porn tho…

Just beat your meat to standard stuff or meet someone IRL, rather than developing some unhealthy attachment to someone on OF who’s exploiting your desperation.

I dunno, I guess if you just wanna pay for porn you like then it’s fine, but some people develop very unhealthy attachments/obsessions to supplement a real human connection.

As a cyclist, two people cycling side by side while other vehicles are waiting to pass is a bit of a dick move tbh.

Not illegal, and nothing compared to the shit that drivers do to cyclists, but still a bit of a dick move.

I just don’t see the point of upgrading every two years, and even if I did I’m buying used at this point.

I’m on iPhone and despite all the fanatics creaming their pants over each release, very little actually seems to change.

I know a guy with a 6 year old phone, and when he listed off the features it made me realise how little things have actually changed since it was released.

Because forum posts are always full of accurate and helpful information?

In my experience it still makes good suggestions for most things, and is better than trying to phrase things in a way that Google likes, then trawling through irrelevant forum posts.

It’s only there to make suggestions, so if someone is taking its output without understanding and treating it like gospel then they’re an idiot who’s inevitably going to end up in a world of trouble.

If you take the suggestion, verify it with documentation, then make sure you actually understand it, chatGPT is a great tool.
