I'm a 23 year old bi guy. I'm looking for friends to have voice calls where we talk about anything (or you ramble and I listen), and watch movies/shows. I don't game or watch anime.
I have depression and social anxiety and therefore no friends but I'm hoping to improve that.

disclaimer before I get to the actual post: I’m not self diagnosed (fully support self diagnosis tho) but my country doesn’t use the level system I’m 20F diagnosed at the age of 17. I know I’m pretty good at masking, people who don’t really know how autism usually presents in afab people can tell that there’s something a little off about me and treat me differently but I don’t think it’s enough to the level 2 point? I was completely unable to say even a word to strangers when I was a kid but ig it was just brushed off as being shy. At school I never really talked to anyone and really struggled to understand how the hell do I make friends. It just felt like everyone was in on some big secret to how to socialize and I had no idea what it was. I only started making some friends at the age of 14 when I found other neurodivergent and mentally ill people but even then I always felt like an outsider. I also don’t know if my support needs are level 1 or 2. As a kid and young teen I wasn’t able to keep up with school or daily tasks like cleaning, showering on brushing my teeth. I don’t know why, I just couldnt ever get myself to do it and I didn’t really have a parent to help me with that stuff. I’d spend the whole time playing video games that brought me comfort. Mind you I did live in a pretty abusive household so that also for sure impacted my ability to function. As soon as I turned 18 I dropped out of school and got a job. The dropped out part was a good decision but the job destroyed me mentally. After just the first week I was so overwhelmed and dysregulated I attempted and ended up in a hospital. I went back to work after 2 weeks tho and managed to keep working by abusing alcohol until 3 months later I was so exhausted I ODed again (not as badly tho) to have an excuse not to go to work. I quit the job right after that and was unable to function for the next 3 months after which I gave in to my parents, societal and financial pressure and got another job that I lasted 9 months in. It was a little easier as I made sure I worked only 2-3 shifts a week but eventually once again I slipped into alcohol and my brain and body just stopped functioning properly. My tourette’s also got worse to a point of it making it even harder for me to work as my wrists would lock in one position. It’s been 8 months since then and I’ve slowly realized that I am disabled and I will never be able to live alone. I wouldn’t be able to get groceries, clean, throw the trash out regularly, work enough to afford to live and just do any other adult thing. But then again I know level 2 requires more communication issues? I’m just very confused and bothered by the inability to fit myself into one or another label

Heya everyone who may be reading this!! I'm here looking for a genuine connection, and taking things slow to get to know each other is fine by me! I'm mainly looking for a friendship where we can both be open with each other. :)
Gaming is definitely my main hobby as of now, and I play a variety of different types. From horror to casual I'm usually up for whatever. I also happen to be a streamer! Vtuber to be specific. I ain't big or anything as I take it casually, but I love my community to bits and I've made so many great friends because of it. It's helped me play more games and get to stuff I may have missed before. For example, I played through all the 3d Zelda games, and I also am playing Paper Mario which I am loving! I'd love to talk more about it and the games we love later, as I love learning about new people!
I quite enjoy TV shows, anime, and movies and have a bunch of hobbies I'd love to learn like art, but...here comes the big caveat with me: i suffer from pretty extreme depression that's made it hard for me to do things I used to enjoy as I can barely focus unless someone sits down with me to do it. The main reason I started streaming is so I'd be able to play games again as it was so hard for me to so so otherwise. I don't have a job and have lived with my mom for the past 8 years, and while I'm trying my best (currently trying adhd meds), it's been rough. Don't get me wrong, though. My mood is relatively stable and I'm actually quite positive and optimistic, though my current meds are messing with my head a bit. I may need some pokes if I don't respond right away and patience would be super appreciated. I've grown so much as a person over the years and have learned a lot about myself and how to be comfortable with who I am and embrace it. So yeah, I totally understand if you don't wanna deal with my current situation and all that. I just wanted to be upfront about it so you know what you're getting into.
ANYWAYS!! I consider myself a chill, goofy, and caring person, and I genuinely love helping people and hope to make it my career someday and be something like a social worker or counselor. I just really enjoy making other people happy, ya know? I can also be relatively shy and awkward, but at the same time I have the energy and enthusiasm to make up for it. I like to consider myself an 'extroverted introvert' if you will. I also really try to be open with my emotions and approach things upfront, and loyalty is a HUGE thing for me. I am loyal to a fault and will stick by someone's side even if it's probably not good for me if I care about them enough.
Let's see....besides having a cat named Roo who I love a ton, I think that's it! I'm probably missing a few things, but I'm not always the best at organizing my thoughts haha. I'd love to chat and get to know whoever is reading this more, but if not that's fine as well as I totally understand. I hope you all have a great day and find what you're looking for! :)

Mood Spoiler: tentatively happy ending
Original Post: April 1, 2024
My (29M) best friend Jess (29F) keeps on mentioning my ex (29F) in front of my fiancee, and I am thinking of cutting her off. I want to know if I am overreacting, or if Jess is in the wrong.
For context, Jess and I went to the same high school and the same college. We were friends in high school. However, since we both went to the same out-of-state college, we became best friends since then. We have always been there for each other during the best and worst times. However, things have always been platonic, and she is more like a big sister to me, who made sure I stay on the right track.
I have only been in two long-term relationships so far. One was with my ex Lisa for 7 years. We met in college and dated all through our college years. Lisa and Jess also became good friends, too. After college, Lisa and I just grew apart and had different goals in life. I became "boring" after college as I was working on my PhD while doing a full time job. Lisa broke up with me as she wanted to party on weekends, while I was home studying. I was heartbroken, but I don't think I ever blamed her or had resentment towards her, as I understood my decisions were selfish and should not hold her back from having the best life.
Jess always stood by me and comforted me during that time. Jess and Lisa were good friends and Jess always kept on telling me that Lisa loves me and will be back one day when I am ready. I foolishly held on to that hope and stayed friends with Lisa. That was until I met my fiancee Yang. After I finished my PhD, I got a nice job in a big tech company. Yang joined our team a year after me. We started going out for drinks, and dinner and we started dating seriously pretty soon. We are happy together, and financially in a great place. Needless to say, I stopped talking to Lisa after I started dating Yang.
I proposed to Yang a year after we started dating and got engaged last year. Jess has been acting weirdly since we got engaged. One of the first things she said to Yang after we got engaged was how I had planned the same thing for Lisa (proposing on a local hiking trail). It was a bit off-putting that she was bringing up Lisa whom I broke up with almost 5 years ago on such a happy occasion. However, Yang asked me to not spoil my mood, as she felt Jess was just commenting on how I had that plan in mind for years. Since then, every time we meet, Jess without fail brings up Lisa and how the things I am doing are all the things I had planned with Lisa. This happened when we bought a house, planned for vacations, etc. Jess always starts with some nostalgic story and then brings up how Lisa and I were so happy together. She is still good friends with Lisa and keeps giving me updates about Lisa and how great Lisa is doing at work when no one is asking for it. It felt like she was painting a rosy picture of Lisa to Yang and telling Yang that she would always be second to Lisa.
Yang told me Jess's comments bothered her, and I also felt the same. I have brought this up with Jess many times and asked her not to do it. However, she says she will try but since I dated Lisa for 7 years, she would be part of many stories from the past. Also, she asked me why talking about Lisa bothers me and if I still have feelings for her. I have reduced hanging out with Jess. However, she is close with my mom and is always invited to all our family parties and holidays.
I talked to my mom and sister about this and they feel I am overreacting. They feel Jess is just telling stories and since the stories are mostly from college days and later, Lisa will be a character in the story. They also feel I should not be bothered by Jess mentioning Lisa since we broke up a long time ago. I feel that it's disrespectful to Yang as she doesn't need to hear about all the fun Lisa and I had when we were together and how we were planning to get married. Do you think I am the asshole to stop here or Jess is truly acting out of line?
Relevant Comments:
Commenter: Probably need to separate your time with your fiancé away from your friend. ... On a side note, your friend comes across poorly on one other aspect. When you were too busy to date so you could study. She is encouraging you to stay available while your ex goes about dating around? Think she ever encouraged your ex to not? Or do you think she was telling your ex she could have all the fun she wanted cause you'd still be around? Food for thought.

OOP: She thought we were 24 when we broke up and she always justified that Lisa was young and it's natural to date around before you settle down. She also encouraged me to do the same. However, after my breakup, I decided that I would not be in a relationship (based on what happened to the previous one) and never dated anyone until after I graduated.

Commenter: Not wrong, in fact it's thoughtful of your finace's feelings. " Jess always kept on telling me that Lisa loves me and will be back one day when I am ready." - yikes.
An easy: "Jess, you keep bringing up my ex, and keep making comments which are dismissive of my relationship with Yang. I am telling you point blank that this is harming our friendship and it saddens me that you dismiss my feelings as being unimportant on this topic. If you can't respect me, and my relationship with Yang, please understand why it will likely end our friendship."

OOP: We have had this exact conversation. Jess then proceeded to ask Yang is she offended by her telling stories about me. Yang was polite and said she is ok. Then she told me I am being too sensitive.

Commenter: Op do you know if Lisa is married? Maybe Jess is trying to sabotage your engagement so you can be with Lisa.

OOP: I know Lisa is single. She has not been in any serious long term relationship after me. Infant, Jess always makes it a point to bring that up regularly and update me, even after I tell her I have no interest. My mom loves gossip and they also discuss a out Lisa regularly.

Jess is just being a mean girl/have you talked to Lisa at all?
At this point, I suspect Jess is just being mean to Yang. I would have cut her off long ago if she was not so close to me or my family for so many years.
Lisa is out of the picture, to be honest. I have completely gone no contact with her for the last 2 years.
Jess has feelings for you:
That's not true. I did not write it since I thought it was irrelevant, but Jess is happily married and has a 3 year old kid.

Update Post: April 23, 2024 (22 days later)
I wrote a post a month ago regarding my friend Jess mentioning my ex constantly in front of my fiancée. Thanks to everyone who commented, and how inappropriate it was. However, the last month has been nothing but crazy and I still trying to make sense of what happened so far.
After my post, I decided to talk to Jess and gave her an ultimatum not to speak about my ex Lisa again. I know Jess and Lisa are still friends, but I was uncomfortable of her comparing my fiancée Yang with Lisa all the time. I broke up with Lisa 5 years ago, and she is nothing but a faint memory in my past. Jess kept on defending herself and telling me that I was with Lisa for most of my adult life and it's hard to tell any stories from the past without including her. She also blamed me for being emotionally childish and just forgetting about Lisa when she was with me for 7 years. Finally, Jess agreed that she will not bring up Lisa in front of Yang, and I should also not treat Lisa as she does not exist since she is still Jess's friend. I informed Yang about our conversation. Although she was appreciative about it, she said I did not need to do it and she knows how much I love her and every time Jess brings up my Lisa, she feels sorry for Lisa that she let a guy like me go.
Yang went to visit China two weeks ago for a month as we plan to get married in her hometown. She is taking care of her shopping as well as preparations for the wedding. Jess invited me to her house that Friday for dinner as I was home alone. I am also good friends with her husband, and we were all just chatting and drinking in the living room. Around 7.30pm, the doorbell rang, and Jess excitedly went to open the door. To my surprise, it was fucking Lisa at the door. She was all dressed up as if she were ready for a date and came in. I had not seen her in person for almost 3 years and I was shocked to see her. She sat down and started making small talk with me. I was extremely uncomfortable and went into the kitchen to talk to Jess. I was angry at her and asked her what was going on. She kept on telling me that it's been 5 years since the breakup and to get over it and be nice to Lisa. She said Lisa was excited to meet me and she thought we were all adults and could have one fun evening together. We had a fight and I told her that she should not have invited Lisa after our conversation the other day and I do not want to be friends with her anymore. I went into the living room and politely excused myself and told everyone that I had a work emergency and had to leave early. Lisa looked sad, but I genuinely felt uncomfortable to be made to hang out with my ex without my consent.
I came home and called Yang. I have never seen her more furious, and she told me she is not comfortable with Jess anymore as she has some agenda that we do not know about. It's different to talk about Lisa, but to invite her without consulting is not ok. I also felt the same and I called Jess the next day and told her that she crossed a line, and I was terribly upset with her. I stopped taking her calls and ghosted her. I also told my mom and sister about the whole incident.
Last Sunday, my mom called me for lunch. When I got there, I saw Jess was already there. I told my mom that I do not want to talk to Jess and can't stay. However, she asked me to sit as they all wanted to talk to me. I have a glutton for punishment and decided to hear them out. My mom started with how Jess has been there for me all these years and only has my best interest at heart. She kept on telling me that they are the three people (mom, sister, and Jess) that love me the most. Jess started saying how she felt that I was making a big mistake in not having to hear what Lisa had to say. She told me that Lisa was my first love and Lisa is now ready to settle down and we can pick where we left off. She reminded me how broken I was when Lisa left me and how life is giving me a second chance. My sister also chimed in and said how they all liked Lisa more than Yang and how we both looked so great together. Finally, my mom started saying how our culture was so different than Yang and it is hard for them to relate to her. I asked them in what way, and my mom said that they did not understand what Yang says sometimes and have nothing in common with her. Then my mom asked me to think about how Lisa and I would have such wonderful looking kids, while if I marry Yang, our kids will look so different. I started getting their drift and I probed more. My mom told me how our kids would look Asian with "small eyes" and not like any others in the family.
I asked my mom if she cared about my kids looks more and not about how smart they will be since Yang has a PhD. She blew it off, and I realized she just did not want me to marry Yang because she was Chinese and not white. My mom told me to forgive Jess and my mom asked Jess to talk to Lisa on my behalf and asked her if she would be interested in getting back together with me. My mom was adamant that since I loved Lisa so much, I should be happy and pick up things where we left off as that is the best for everyone. I have never been so angry and may have said a lot of unkind things to all of them before I left
I am so depressed right now. I not only lost my best friend, but also am not sure how I can move on from what my mom said. My mom and sister raised me and that is the reason where I am today. However, I cannot get over how racist they are being and how they were just pretending to like Yang all these years while actively working on breaking us up. I have been so shocked that I have not told any of this to Yang so far. I might wait for her to come back next week and talk to her in person.
Again, thanks everyone for all your messages on the last post as they helped me a lot to think through the situation. My life is more fucked up than I could imagine, and I cannot imagine how dejected Yang will feel after hearing all this.
*****New Update Post: May 7, 2024 (5 weeks after OG post)****\*
I wrote a post two months ago regarding my best friend Jess constantly bringing up my ex when talking to my fiancée Yang. I wrote an update two weeks ago about my mom, sister and Jess scheming about trying to get me back with my ex Lisa because they were uncomfortable with Yang being Chinese. They tried to do it when my fiancée was visiting her parents and I felt so betrayed by their actions.
As I said in the previous post, I blew up on my mom and sister about what they said and immediately left. I did not take calls from them or answer texts for the next several days. Their messages initially were anger towards me on why I left before they could finish what they wanted to say. However, I think they realized on day 3 that they might have crossed the line this time and became extremely apologetic. I finally messaged them to leave me alone and not to contact Yang or I until we contact them. Jess did not message me the whole time.
I did not tell Yang about the situation until she came back home 9 days ago. I initially did not know how to bring up the subject, but she sensed something was wrong and asked me about it. I was so worried about hurting her, but I told her about what happened. I was upfront about the stunt Jess pulled and she was angry at Jess. I also told her about my visit to my mother's place, but she did not react with any anger. She just asked me if I was ok.
The next few days were confusing where I was more upset than Yang. She was just excited showing me all pictures and telling me stories. Finally, on last Thursday evening, she opened up and asked me if I was ok about my mom's behavior and what I plan to do. I told her my thoughts and how I cannot forgive them for what they said about her being Asian and them wanting me to marry a Lisa because she was white. I asked her why she was not more upset as it was bothering me.
She told me that when she told her parents about me, they had the exact same reaction for her dating someone who was not Chinese. Her family is very traditional, and her parents were very upset about her decision. It took them a few months to warm up to me and accept me. She never told me about this because she wanted me to have good relationship with her parents. She told me that now they are the most excited doing arrangements for our wedding.
She told me that she has always felt something was off when she talked to my mom, my sister or Jess and they did not like her. My mom and sister would be very friendly with her in front of me, but never invited her for anything when I am not around. She suspected that it may be due to fact that she is not white and does not understand the American traditions. She said she is not upset with them and now that this is in the open, she should talk to them and assure them that she would be as good of a wife as Lisa or any other girl. She said that she does not want to break a family in order to start a new one.
Despite my protests, Yang invited my mom and sister for lunch on Sunday. She said that it would be good for us to talk about everything and hear why they are concerned about her marrying me. I was really not happy with this, but Yang spent most of Sunday morning cooking for them.
When my mom and sister arrived, there were a lot of waterworks and apologies. My mom apologized to Yang and me for her behavior and told us that she would never bring it up again. My sister also was quiet and had tears in her eyes. There were a lot of blame games. My mom and my sister were blaming Jess for constantly telling them how Yang might not be great for me and how she won't fit into our family. My mom and sister fought with Jess after I left and Jess blamed Lisa. Based on Jess's story, Lisa has been depressed for the last few years and when I suddenly got engaged to Yang, it became worse. Jess thought I was also depressed after Lisa left me, because I did not date anyone for 3 years. In reality, I just wanted to focus on my work and studies and never had time. So, Lisa convinced Jess that she has to get back together with me as that is what I wanted too. Jess said how sorry she felt for Lisa as she was her longtime friend and listened to her plan as she thought it was good for everyone.
My mom and sister told us that I should stay away from Jess because she orchestrated the whole situation. They kept on hugging Yang and apologizing to her. Yang in turn also started crying and telling them that she will do better to fit in with them. It was all a big mess. I am still skeptical of my mom's change in heart, but I also want to see Yang happy. However, I think it will take a lot of time and healing before I could truly trust my mom and sister.
Currently, my mom invited us to lunch at her place next week and told me that Jess will not be there. Jess has still not message me or Yang. I really don't know what I can do in this situation. I am still upset and furious at my mom, but I also want to respect Yang's effort to keep the family together. Thanks to everyone for all the messages and supportive comments. It really helped reading them when I was feeling very sad.

I don’t know how to go about making a post considering I don’t know what kind of games I’d really be down to play with someone I’m not comfortable with. If we clicked, that’s a whole different ball game.
Games I enjoy playing when I have someone to hang out with are:
Call of duty multiplayer, Smite, league of legends (aram/arena), I like arena shooters alot so xdefiant seems like a good one too for me.
I’m not limited to only these games by the way, so if you’re looking at this list and you’re like, what a bad game taste or whatever, I play other things too and am willing to. If you for whatever reason want to message me with my boring post, please be around the same age and at least the United States or time zone being similar so we can play without issues. :)
Other interests would be Pokémon card collecting, very new to anime but would like to add that cause I loved what I watched so far, and music. Mostly metalcore and punk pop but I can get down to other stuff too.
Last thing I want to add. Very bad social anxiety and very moderate depression I would say cause of it. I’m not as negative as I come off, and I’m always down for a good time if you understand that I might not be the most fun to be around when we first meet. I will try to keep negativity out and will try to be yaknow, not as boring as I put myself out to be. Take care even if you don’t want to message to see if we click and good luck to you too.

I've read enough here in 1/2 hour to know that the mods are off drooling somewhere, so I'll make a controversial piece.
The game is stacked against you. You can buy your way into a stronger account in two hours than any free player could possibly achieve since the game came out. For that, I say eat my turds, ALL of evony devs. Have some integrity and go work somewhere else. You're either a coward, or only just talented enough to stay on staff with a janky, dollar store performing game. I still thrive with all your glitches and scumbaggery.
Moving on.
There are good servers, there are bad servers. The way the game is set up now, unless someone you know gives you an alt on an existing server, you're going to have to find out over time. You will hear people say the social aspect of the game is dead. There are 1600+ servers as of today... if you believe they know what all of them are like, then DM your social security number and I will transfer all of my Nigerian Prince money to you.
My server is awesome, has been around for 8 months, and everyone is supportive and helpful. 200+ daily active humans from across the world. Now I am supportive and helpful. I just got a f2p110M person in my alliance their wings during the special svs event, and I don't even speak the same language as him.
I work from home, and have a lot of opportunity to join "rallies" and participate in events that are profitable, so my experience in growth will not be the same as yours. That being said, if you learn the mechanics of the game and choose to specialize early on, you can be a terror. It will take months, at least, if you don't spend though.
There is a specific path for free players who have pvp in mind. If you deviate from that, you will have a bad time. This information is not hard to find. If you know what reddit is, then you know what google and youtube is.
When someone says "I played for 3 years and was engaged in my hobby and made real life friends but also I hate this game" tell them to suck your farts. That's either three years of fun, or they played for three years and didn't enjoy it at all, which makes them a moron. Suck my farts wheels, or whatever you name was.
I expect to be banned from this post, but if anyone is able to read, last svs was a blast. We have a "whale" who has all the new generals ascended. Well, "new" is relative. Napoleon, Agrippa, Suchet, and Muyo or whatever the siege lady is. Not my wheel house so I don't know. He was away for weekend for mothers day, and only a few small coiners were active and we crushed a server 150+ older than ours.
It was great. I have a good archer march, the guy I helped get wings had a good ground march, and a 2.5B coiner was there to help with a mounted. We kept harrasing temples and swapping in and out.
You can have a lot of fun without spending a dime, but it will take time. Join the strongest alliance, and if you don't like it in a few days, start a new account. Rinse and repeat. If you don't like my post, suck my farts, then exhale, then rinse and repeat. If you're going to say well what about Chalons, and what about future.. blah blah blah. I spent like $150 bucks and it was well worth it so far. Eat my farts.

I’m a little weirdo and a sweet girl who’s into music festivals and love almost all music but especially love emo and EDM. I can nerd-out about aliens, true crime (deep interest in serial killers), the paranormal, film, fashion, music, Disney, space and animals (especially cats 😽). I’m a night owl and I love going to film festivals, music festivals/raves, concerts, traveling, fine dining and the beach. I am an extroverted introvert and have a little bit of social anxiety 🥺. But if I seem to vibe with someone and they feel trustworthy I warm up quickly. I’m currently employed as a phlebotomist. I have a car as well. I guess I’m decent looking? (pretty hard on myself about my looks 🥺)
I want to get to know someone that lives in California (or seriously willing to relocate to California), in their late 20s/30s/early 40s and have a genuine wholesome connection, no nsa, no couples, no poly- a monogamous relationship only, BE SINGLE, no cheaters, don’t have a wife/gf/partner and/or children, Someone kind, attractive, giving , intelligent (intellectual-types a big plus), makes me laugh/similar humor (Superbad, Pineapple Express, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Borat, Bruno-that kind of humor) has a job and a car, stable job/career, has their own place or is living with roommates, likes animals especially cats, a night owl, someone who wants to get married in the near future and have a family, similar interests/tastes especially in the arts, decent sense of fashion/style and taste, talkative but also has good back and forth banter and can have long deep convos, expressive emotionally, similar values and societal/political views (towards the liberal side), not afraid to be vulnerable/open with their feelings, cultured/worldly, honest from the start, humble, trustworthy, open to other povs and ideas, emotionally intelligent, understanding of mental health and can handle someone with mental health issues, has some mental health issues of their own so we can relate to each other, makes their partneSO/whoever they are dating their priority, knows what they want, mentally strong, likes taking care of others and compatible in intimacy. I am only interested in someone who wants to jump with both feet in. I want a risk taker and is ready to fall in love- not someone who is super cautious and calculated when looking for their potential partner in life. Life is short. I am looking for someone who longs for that passionate fiery love.
Would love someone that is into EDM, film/TV, the arts, a little bit of gaming, cats or animals in general, film festivals, a reader, loves traveling or wants to travel, enjoys fine dining or just good food and the loves the beach. Emo, goths, ravers, tats/piercings or just has a cool/edgy aesthetic is a huge plus! Feel free to hit me up on chat (not DM) and send a pic (I’ll send one back if I’m interested) so I can put a face to who I am talking to :) (Physical attraction is important in building a connection so If you can’t send a photo showing your face in the beginning please don’t respond to this post)

Saying 1.0 will update recipes without telling us which ones is like saying you're about to release the next generation of a gaming console which will make all current consoles obsolete. And when that happens... no one wants to use the currently released stuff because they know it will become useless or outdated or broken very soon. I'm currently stuck at tier 7 and 8 and every time I'm about to make that next factory, I just wonder... will my perfectly planned efficiency be broken in the next update?
I need to know which recipes will stay static so I can go forward with making those factory types. For sure. It would help.
Also... more frequent updates. I check the socials every day, but updates come less frequently than that.
Probably I should expect 1.0 in November or something though.

I am 36 years old. I don't have any friends. I haven't been in a relationship in two years. I don't make as much money as I would like. I am have a really slow recovery from a tonsillectomy and I am just having a hard time getting myself motivated to do anything.
I had one pretty good friend, an ex, and we went on a platonic trip together in March. I had a really good time and generally enjoyed myself. Got to see Chichen Itza and get some fun in at the cenotes and beach. Since then we haven't hung out though. In her texts she said the guy she has been seeing is moving out of town in a few months so she is spending time with him. She has dated him off and on for 20+ years and this has never been an issue before so I do feel like some of this is also just fatigue of hanging out with me. We didn't get in any fights on the trip but it did show we have much different priorities/personalities. She brought her dogs, they go everywhere with her, and one is incontinent so it was dictating quite a bit of our schedule but I am pretty used to this so I felt like I handled it fairly well. I also do think some of this is her boyfriend not wanting us to hangout, which is understandable. I just said No worries and we haven't talked since. She didn't message me on my birthday, but I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't remember. We have been hanging out regularly for 2-3 years so it is a bit of a hit, but it was something that felt ultimately was going to happen so I am not mad, just a little sad. I haven't hung out with anyone other than my dad since the middle of March though.
Just hurts to not have anyone to hangout with at all. I have talked to two coworkers and one of them has bailed on me multiple times and the other just said he was too busy to make any plans in the first place. I have done meetups in the past but I always just feel so awkward not knowing anyone and I am awful at initiating contact with anyone, guys or girls. I also just don't really have that many interests, even though I tend to enjoy most things I do. I own a dirt bike but haven't gotten out to use it because it is really hard to load by myself and I am just not that confident with it. And if I am doing anything alone without somebody else keeping me accountable I tend to just blow it off. I have also tried Bumble BFF but honestly was so turned off by it. I kept on getting hit on, creepy af, and it just feels awkward.
I feel like I am bad at making friends because I am not very personable and also tend to overshare and say stupid things just because I haven't talked to anyone in so long it is just kind of like a dam bursts.
I would like to get back into judo or jujitsu, but with college and my mortgage I am barely squeaking by financially, and 200+ a month is a little too much for me. I even canceled my cable plan to save some money for bills despite loving basketball. I also don't really have enough energy for active hobbies due to my tonsillectomy right now.
I work full time and am taking college classes at the same time. I was never the best student, but I have finished 9 computer science courses and a statistics class over the last 2.5 years. I have 5 classes left for my bachelors and am on course to graduate Spring 2025. Straight A's and one B+ so far so I have been really happy with my grades, but the industry has completely fallen apart over the last year or two and I am worried that after investing all this time and money into going back to college I might not be able to get a job. The best student I know wasn't able to land a single internship this summer and that really shocked me. He is an amazing programmer, better than anyone I know.
Because I have a mortgage on a little duplex I cannot really afford to do an internship to try and help my job prospects, I am going to really have to rely on doing well in the interviews. I am also planning on trying to take advantage of the career fairs and other on-campus opportunities next fall but that is so not my comfort zone that I don't want to set my expectations really.
With how busy I am it has also been a great excuse for myself to not pursue more social outlets and the only thing I do for dating is online apps and while I can get the occasional date I don't think I have ever actually had a real connection through it. I am just bad at connecting with people on a personal level, be it friends or dates. I have been on so many first dates it is kind of depressing. The town I live in isn't small, like 150k, but I feel like I am running low on options after years of failures.
I had been suffering from chronic tonsillitis over the last year. I had 5 bouts in total, three of which were back to back episodes from January to March this year. I got a tonsillectomy on April 20 and am still having problems swallowing food. I am basically still on a puree diet.
Getting the tonsillectomy was a real eye opener for me because with my ex not being a contact anymore I didn't have anyone to rely on so I had to have my father fly out and spend a week with me. I didn't have any friends to rely on and it really just kind of hit me how depressing my life is. All of my old high school friends, who I don't keep up with, have families.
The one thing I had going for me is that I had a decent physique. Due to a lack of a social life I was pretty good at going to the gym and lifting regularly. I was 6'1 and 180-185 pounds, nothing impressive but I was happy with myself. I am down to 160 pounds now since my tonsillectomy though and I am just extremely low energy all the time. My summer class started today and I am having a lot of issues just focusing after an 8-hour work day, even though I only work remotely on a computer.
During COVID I really made leaps and bounds to improve myself. I quit cigarettes after 15 years, I started going back to class. Got my own place and gained 40 pounds (in a good way) but after losing half of that weight and generally being miserable from my tonsillectomy it is just so hard to motivate myself to even go to the gym anymore and for 3 years I never had a problem getting off my butt to go to the gym, even if it was just for a mediocre lifting session.
I used to love playing video games and watching tv shows/movies but now I just find myself mindlessly watching youtube or reading and don't even have the attention span or interest in booting up a video game anymore or trying to find a show or movie to watch.
I always wanted a family, but I have never really had a successful relationship in my life and now since my tonsillectomy I have become a lot less sexually motivated than before. I don't even have the urge to masturbate anymore, and sex was never a strong point of mine in the first place, leading me to believe it will be even worse moving forward. I also just have never connected with somebody on like a really deep level and feel like years of failures/insecurity just kind of burden me a this point. And I am getting to the age now where I feel like I am almost beyond the point where this is still possible. It is weird telling somebody I am 36 and my longest relationship was only 4 months long.
I feel like I am on the right track on paper with only one year left until I graduate and I kind of really want to move even though I love where I live just so I can get a fresh start, but at the same time I am terrified I will graduate and just be in the same situation I am currently in. I also could never afford to buy another place without a better salary. The only reason I was able to afford what I currently have is because I bought during the 2020 market and got a 2.34% APR. But even with that my mortgage is close to 40% of my take home right now and I have one of the cheapest places in town.
I don't really have anyone to vent to or destress to so I just wanted to post something from a throwaway account. My dad has been texting me daily because I think he realizes how unhappy I am and I really appreciate that.
I have been wanting to go see some Nuggets games at the bar, but I still cannot drink alcohol until I am eating food again so I have just been following highlights on youtube. I also have never been a fan of hanging out at bars. I enjoy shooting pool but I am not good at social settings like that.
I will leave it at this for now. A very long, poorly formatted ramble. But I have seen much worse. Thanks.

Hi! I am an east coast transplant living in California who has realized since moving that my social circle is really small. I enjoy getting to know new people and don’t get much of a chance to do that anymore.
I am currently between jobs. I got laid off a few months ago and the job market is brutal at the moment. So my days are spent applying for jobs and waiting to hear back.
In my free time, I enjoy music - both listening and writing, - gaming, cooking, and getting out to explore my new hometown.
If you are looking to get to know someone, send me a message with a short introduction! I have pictures in my profile as well!

Made a post a few days ago about how I run a DnD campaign for some kids in an after-school program I run for the YMCA, and subsequently how the parents of one of the kids was trying to get the game banned and whole operation shut down. I wasn't sure the best way to make an update, but I linked the whole original post above so you can have a read if you'd like ^{^}
So firstly genuine genuine genuine big thanks to everyone who took the time to read and respond with input and suggestions. It means a ton and really helped a lot. So I'm just gonna jump right in with what happened.
Firstly, I took the advice about getting testimonies from parents who were super happy that I was playing this game with their kids -- we weren't allowed to have outside visitors involved in the actual meeting with HR, but I got emails and messages from mostly every parent (besides the one complaining about it lmao) to voice their support and why they think this is not a harmful thing, and in fact actually a good thing. I really think this helped a lot and was a big factor, so thanks everyone who suggested. It's not something I would've thought to do on my own ahahah.
I didn't want to come in toooooo heavy with the articles and very clear scientific proof about the benefits of developing minds playing TTRPGs', because (as it turned out) this was actually more just conversational and "pleasant" than I thought it was gonna be, at least from HRs side. I did mention to them the multiple studies done on this exact scenario, but it turned out I didn't even really need them. There were definitely moments of tension, but this was a more civil conversation than I anticipated from all parties involved. I'm not sure if it was the fact that the parents who complained had to talk to me in person WITH my bosses and HR reps present and it calmed them down a bit? But yeah anyway.
I wish it was a more dramatic story, but basically I just levelled with them person to person.
People who said they were betting on it being a Christian, satanic-panic angle: you were right, mostly anyway. As in, that was definitely a main part of their argument. They are in fact Christian and were concerned, but it was really coming from a place of ignorance about what this game is about, and they specifically didn't understand the fact that the DM (me) can entirely control what the contents of it is. I'm assuming they just googled DnD and probably saw some things they didn't agree with, but once I explained that the way we were playing it included no demon spawn or worshipping, or any killing of other humans, or allowing of murder-hobo activity, they softened up a bit. I told them it's a strictly G/PG rated experience that I'm curating for them. And of course I explained the social and academic benefits of DnD, and how much of a bonding activity this is for the group, and how much their son in particular loves it. This helped big time.
Ironically, it was their other argument about wanting active engagement for their child (ie; sports lol) that was a little harder to combat. From their and HRs perspective, this whole program and the YMCAs MO IS in fact healthy active engagement. I explained that most days of the week we are doing just that. I'm a tennis instructor as well and have played sports all my life (and they know this), so I tried to assure them that I get their child a SOLID amount of engagement (plus free tennis lessons effectively haha). I'll save you the whole back and forth, but this was a majority of our 45 minute meeting.
Im trying to wrap this up with a bow but not sure exactly how, so I'll just finish with the bullet points from the end of the discussion:

• The game is not banned! HOORAY HOORAY!
  
• I am now only allowed to play it with them once a week (on Friday), but all things considered I'll take this as a win!
  
• and best of all, the complained parents are letting their kid continue to play!!!! I'm sending them a detailed summary of the contents of my game so they can look it over, but they said with it now "officially" only being once a week, and with a better understanding of what it actually is, they will let him to continue to play. I'm so unbelievably happy.
  

So boom. Happy ending. Again big thanks to everyone for giving their advice and linking resources; it helped so much and meant a lot. This is a big win for "the community" I feel, at the risk of sounding too corny. You are all the best. I love this game so much 🥹

I'm 17 and I've tried to kill myself 3 times by hanging and reason that didn't work is because I don't have a rope, I used an extension cord. I think about suicide every single day every hour only reason I'm even alive still is cause I can't find a method to do it I've tried ordering (won't name it but it's poison) a substance online but couldn't buy it cause I'm not 18 yet ii spend at least an hour a day looking on google earth for a spot to jump and die at but the area I live has no high spots unfortunately so it appears unless I figure out how to hang myself, I'm stuck here until I find a method/spot
so basically how I ruined my life is that I dropped out of high school and have been doing nothing since I'm a failure at everything and have no energy to even go outside I'm not a good person but I'm not a horrible human at the same time I don't understand why I'm even on this earth I don't understand the concept of life or why people who arnt rich even enjoy it I was born into a family that's more towards the non-wealthy side
ever since I was a kid I've never had goals in life funny enough that was a question that was brought up in school a lot I've never been able to answer the most simple things in school for ex. questions like your goals, what you did that day, who are your hero's, favorite shows, random shit like that I've always felt different from everyone else and I know I am, I'm undiagnosed with everything but I'm pretty sure I have many mental illnesses I know for sure I have depression and very very severe social anxiety (I can't handle normal conversations using my voice with people I don't know) I can't even talk to people online with my voice I always just tell them I don't have a mic also I think I might have ocd or something to do with patterns cause I used to be so obsessive with patterns if I didn't end my path on my right foot id half to step off and back on or just go all the way back where I started, and another thing is adhd when I used to go to school I would be so unfocused no matter how hard I tried if I tried my best to focus I would focus too much on the fact that I need to focus and somehow my teacher would explain everything and id be lost
my school life was horrible for me ii want to go back so bad so I can at least have some sort of chance at life, but I know I'd be so miserable I don't even know why it was so bad for me it's not like I got bullied or anything I had friends not close friends but friends I didn't talk to anyone outside of my friends and I never had a girlfriend (I girl liked me once but I walked away because of my social anxiety) I would just sleep through every class until the day I stopped going I missed more than half of freshman year and half of sophomore I went like a month of junior year until I dropped out
it's not like I'm a dumb or horrible looking person idk if it's just me being bias towards myself but I'm decently smart I learn things quickly and I'm average looking but my main flaw is that I've never been able to process the first step in anything it's like the first step in anything is mentally impossible for me to get over. I've always had potential and I think that's what's going to sting the most after i end it
every day after to me seems like an endless loop and I'm stuck in it without a way out I've made some friends online (we all don't speak) but I'm still so miserable I can't do anything I feel like I'm so stuck I've tried to ask my grandpa if I can get tested for adhd but he just said "you can't have it that's when u jump all over the walls and stuff" obv he means people who have a lot of energy and to an extent he's right I do nothing but play games all day to cope with the fact I hate myself if I'm not playing games I'm browsing suicide forums or reddit communities based on suicide I want to get my GED or something but it's like I don't have the energy to make the first steps at all
also this happened recently but I found Vyvanse pills (stimulants for people with adhd) I took 5 (I know I shouldn't have) and I felt so much better like I was actually happy and I felt like I could actually do things (I wasted 4 playing games cause I was a lot better when I took them though) with my last one I actually went outside I didn't go out for a good reason though I had the energy I needed so I went out to check out a cell tower to climb so I could do what the forum name is only reason I didn't do it is cause it was gated but it still gave me motivation to acc do stuff I ordered more Adderall pills online from the dark web after they get delivered I'm going to use them so I have the energy to kill myself.
I honestly don't know why I wrote this I think I just needed to vent it's all over the place but oh well hopefully one of my family members use my pc and read this after I die so they can understand how miserable I was or something
if you have any ideas of how I can get my life back on track lmk.

Using a throwaway account since this is a pretty vulnerable post.
I'm a female in my early 20s, and I'm about to graduate from college with an English degree (double concentration in literature and creative writing). My tentative plan is to become a Professor of English Literature since I've always been an avid reader and writer. I'm incredibly passionate about learning and media literacy, and there's few things I love more than discussing art and helping others develop a deeper appreciation for it (and vice versa -- I'm always eager to gain a new perspective on something). I have no teaching experience (yet), but I feel like I have a lot of potential in this field.
Here's the thing, though: I struggle with intense feelings of social anxiety and shame. I have very little work experience due to feeling incompetent outside of my wheelhouse in English. Because I'm so anxious in social situations, I struggle to be present and often say/do things that come across as "ditzy" or awkward. I'm very afraid of how I'm being perceived, so I internally freak out -- I'm stuck inside my head instead of being present with those around me (other students, professors, coworkers, acquaintances, basically anyone who isn't in my close circle of friends and family). I feel like I have a reputation of being elusive, isolated, and/or sketchy because I tend to keep to myself and people pick up on my nervous energy (hence the "sketchy" vibes). I have internalized these feelings of incompetency and awkwardness and, as a result, my self-esteem is very low. I have been labeled as socially inept and unintelligent, and I often worry that these things are true. These feelings are made worse by my tendency to compare myself to others. While I know comparison is a losing game, I can't help but observe the accomplishments and talents of others and see the deficit of those things in myself... I recognize that this is an unhealthy mindset and am working hard to change that. I'm often my own worst enemy, so I'm trying to practice self-compassion in order to grow and become a more authentic, uninhibited version of myself. I know that, in order to achieve my goals (e.g., become a better writer, improve social skills, become a professor one day), I need to cultivate more confidence and self-trust. I've carried these feelings of shame for a long time, so it's going to take awhile to deconstruct them, but I'm trying to trust the process and believe in a brighter future.
Also, some context that may or may not be important: I'm in therapy and it's been a great resource. My therapist and I think that I could be on the autism spectrum as well. I'm not currently diagnosed so I hesitate to mention it, but I feel like it explains a lot of my discomfort socializing, the intense "special interest" in my field of study, and my heightened sensitivity (emotional and physical sensitivity -- I get overstimulated easily).
Here are some general questions I have for y'all, but feel free to share whatever insight you feel is appropriate:
What advice do you have for someone struggling with intense shame and social anxiety? How do you detach from other people's perception of you? How do you build genuine, lasting self-esteem?
Also, if there are any professors and/or writers here, what advice do you have for a fledgling undergrad?!

Hi hi there! Been finding myself kind of lonely and friendless lately and late so I'm trying to make some new connections out here. Whether it be platonic (with men or women) or if it goes that way naturally, I'm also open to maybe something more (with women only). Just be honest what you're looking for is all I'm asking. Definitely more of an introvert but I can be a yapper! (don't say I didn't warn ya)
Some info about me that might be relevant:

• I'm of Southeast Asian descent
• Born and raised in Southern California
• Raised Buddhist but I'm not religious at all
• I love reading fantasies, manga, manhwa, manhua, sci-fi, horror, and poorly written web novels
• Hit me up if you wanna game sometimes! I play mostly on PC nowadays
• Currently focused on self-improvement (going back to school to finish up my degree in CS, try to socialize more, working out, being open to new experiences, being more mindful and just generally a better person)
• Been trying to pick up new outdoor hobbies
• Big fan of crime procedural shows for some reason (Criminal Minds, Numbers, Psych), cartoons like Furturama/Avatar:TLA, Rick and Morty, Simpsons, ect and anime (I used to be a huge weeb), shows like Friends, Psych, Numbers, ect.

Looking for someone chill and more laid back to chat with. We can game, watch shows/movies or just talk. Maybe we can even meet one day! We can hit up an arcade, get some korean bbq or watch something together if we vibe well together! Please send me a message with some info about yourself if you wanna chat! :]

I thought maybe the servers were down but no one else seems to be having the issue, I was playing just fine and left the app for a bit. When I went to play again it just opens a black screen. My wifi isn’t the issue all my other phone games are working fine as well as all of my socials. If I uninstall and reinstall, will I loose my progress? I’m not connected to fb and I’m not sure if I saved it to my game centre either 😬😬

Technical Analysis
GameStop Corp. (Ticker: GME) experienced a remarkable surge in its share price, closing at $30.45 on May 13, 2024, marking a 74.40% increase and hitting a year high of $38.155. This significant price movement coincides with large trading volumes, reaching 176.39 million shares compared to an average volume of 7.14 million. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 91 indicates an extreme overbought condition, suggesting potential short-term retracement or price correction. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) value of 0.93 also signals strong bullish momentum, although it could be near peaking considering the current RSI levels.
The stock's average true range (ATR) at approximately 9.81 reflects high volatility, amplified by recent trading activities connected to meme stock phenomena. Despite this, the lack of established support and resistance levels post-surge creates an uncertain technical landscape for GME in the immediate future.
Fundamental Analysis
GameStop’s market capitalization stands at approximately $9.32 billion following the recent price rally. However, fundamental indicators reveal concerns: the Price-to-Earnings (PE) ratio is excessively high at 1522.5, indicating the stock is significantly overvalued relative to earnings per share of just $0.02.
The application of the discounted cash flow (DCF) model yielding a negative value (-18.75) further suggests that the company's future cash flows do not justify the current stock price, under traditional valuation methods. Scheduled earnings announcement on June 5, 2024, will be critical for investors to gauge the company's financial health and operational stability.
The stock's dramatic rise correlates with a resurgence in activity by key figures from previous meme stock events, and as such, is subject to extreme volatility based on social media trends and speculative trading.
Intrinsic Value and Investment Potential
Assessing the intrinsic value of GME is challenging due to the speculative nature of its current trading pattern. Traditional valuation metrics suggest overvaluation. Given this, and the substantial risks associated with volatility and speculative trading influenced by non-fundamental factors, long-term investment potential appears limited unless the company fundamentally improves its earnings capacity and stability.
Stock Performance Prediction
For the next trading day, May 14, 2024, and the following week, GME’s stock performance might continue experiencing high volatility, with potential declines due to profit-taking and reaction to its overbought status.
Overall Evaluation
Considering the extreme RSI reading, highly speculative nature of the recent price rise, and fundamental dissonance with the stock’s intrinsic value, GME presents a risky profile for both short-term and long-term investors.
Classification: Sell
The classification as a "Sell" candidate is primarily influenced by the unsustainable surge driven m [...]

I hope the devs read this.
For people who are confused about how the game works. The game is literally what if you are playing tall in CK3. You don't paint the map but you rise the ranks in the feudal system.
I like the concept of this game which focuses more on creating a network of alliances rather than painting the map and seeing that it has the potential to be a CK3 competitor despite being a 4X game. But it has a lot of flaws and bugs that make the game literally unplayable. So here is my feedback.

1. More random events. It gets boring fast when the same events keeps coming out again and again.
2. More player decision events. Right now, the only player decision event is marriage, it doesn't have any drama. Devs should take inspiration from CK3 tours and tournaments and royal court where players can decide its events which could prevent boredom.
3. Ruler designer feature, please. I don't want to re-roll for 1 hour just to get a family with decent traits.
4. Fix the marriage bug. It is still there.
5. Make it easier to have a baby. I know the married couple has to be at the same location to conceive a child but the process is too slow and unpredictable that in my 4th gen my dynasty has shrunk significantly. Please make it easier or create a feature like in CK3 where you can set the two to romance each other.
6. AI diplomatic relation are confusing. A family who is on the other edge of the map declared war on me just because our relationship score is bad. So they end up has to march their troops across the map to fight me and I have to march my troops across the map, (and also fighting bandits along the way) to reach their castle. If this is CK3, it's like Srilanka declared war on Ireland!!!! Devs need to redesign the AI to focus more on fellow families under the same county or duchy beat up each other or go against their count or duke to rank up their status.
7. Can't replenish troops. I have to disband and re-recruit units to create a full 12 stacks of units. Make it that you can only replenish troops while garrisoning in your castle.
8. War is still a mess. Why can't you just copy-paste the same feature from EU4?! I got more than 50% war score and yet the AI doesn't send anyone to sue for peace. And then, when I send an emissary to negotiate peace, the social conflict looks like I'm the one losing here. Despite being on the winning side, my social conflicts say that if I win I get only the peace, and if I lose I could have paid reparations, lost 1 population to them, and lost a claim. Shouldn't this be the reverse for me when I have more than a 50% war score?
9. The AI trade proposals doesn't show how many days the trips will be and don't show how many resources are lost per day. As a result, I suddenly lost 4 food per day.
10. Your civil war feature is garbage. Besides its buggy, I don't like the concept either. Devs should have focused on the power struggle to be a Viceroy. Please remove that civil war feature.
11. Instead, introduce events where the liege demands something challenging to the vassals, like resources for projects, official visits, a court member staying there, etc. If you answer the demand you get: your reputation score increases, and your relations with your liege and fellow houses under the liege increases (If you are of higher ranks, your relation with your vassals increases because they see you as a capable and honorable leader). If you refuse or fail, you get the opposite (Your liege and other houses of the same rank as you will try to wage war on you, your vassals want to overthrow you because you are incapable and dishonorable). For Viceroy you answer to the Emperor who can game over you if the relation got so bad. The higher the rank, the more challenging the demands. I believe this could create more dynamic gameplay where you have to manage your houses to fulfill the challenges and more drama!!
