2024.05.14 23:36 Pianissimojo Disconnection and a Little Bitty (Miscavige)
Yesterday's
message from Nora and Natalie to under-the-radar Scientologists reminded me of a series of videos I saw a few months ago on Mark Bunker's YouTube channel. They are long form interviews with members of the Woodcraft family, who moved from England to the USA for Scientology. Sadly the family was splintered by Scientology's practice of disconnection. I found all the interviews interesting, and highly recommend
Lawrence Woodcraft's story for insight into why someone might choose to stay in Scientology under-the-radar. I'll give you a clue: the mother of his children was a true believer.
In another video Lawrence Woodcraft, an architect, talks about discovering
blue asbestos on the Freewinds. I was horrified when I first watched this, but not by the asbestos. Let's face it, anyone refitting an older ship (at least anyone unencumbered by specialist knowledge about refitting older ships) could stumble across layers of dangerous cancer-causing insulation in its walls. It's a major problem, but not horrific as such. The horror began to roll over me as Lawrence related his attempts to get people to listen to him, and the refusal of senior officials including Bitty Miscavige to believe that cancer was caused by anything other than sexual misconduct. L Ron Hubbard said so, and apparently he knew better than the entirety of modern medicine. There's more to the story of course, including the unanswered questions about the long term effects on the ship's occupants and visitors. I still feel sick when I remember the description of the squad* of Sea Org members whose job it was to run up to freshly exposed asbestos and seal it under a fresh coat of paint to limit contamination. But hey, I'm sure they did a great job because they weren't hindered by appropriate personal protective equipment.
\Please tell me I imagined this. It's months since I watched the video so I might believe you. I don't want to live in a world where someone gets to do this to people.*

2024.05.14 23:31 surprisedkinder Childish Gambino's "This is America" is Actually a Drake, Jay Z and Diddy Diss
Before going into it, I want to mention how this post was inspired by three things. One was user
u/HastyvonFuego2 and their post on going down the rabbit hole on the Kendrick sub last week. It was also inspired by Childish Gambino’s first album release in nearly 6 years where I have been sitting on this idea for a while but he inspired me to finally post this week like he did (never posted on Reddit at all before so be gentle if I am not doing it right)! I was also inspired by an interview Bino gave to GQ about breaking down his most iconic characters. In this interview he says how This is America started out as a Drake diss but then he realized the song was too hard for just Drake so he kept working on it. He also talks in this interview about how all culture is about compression. Which means that yes, This is America is about the gun violence and police issues in America, but compressed in this video is also more about where that culture comes from which he shows is from a small handful of rap moguls, namely Drake, Diddy and Jay-Z (bear with me on this long post, I think/hope it will be worth it). At the end I talk briefly about how Little Foot Big Foot might be in this same vein of cultural compression.
[Intro: Choir] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, go, go away The beginning of this song has no background music yet, which really gives it an ‘in the beginning’ feel. Then Gambino starts doing his dances with weird facial expressions. I will explain as we go through his video how those expressions and dance moves represent different famous rap moguls. One easy look to pick out right away is Jay-Z’s famous lip curl/growl look that Gambino gives with a head nod repeatedly. The colonial pants have been a hot topic, but since it’s only the pants that are colonial, Gambino is saying the bottom or basis for this violent culture in America is ultimately colonialism. The lyrics ‘Go Away’, are likely foreshadowing the rap moguls wanting other popular rap rivals to ‘go away’ or they will make them (aka murder them) for profit.
[Bridge: Childish Gambino & Young Thug] We just wanna party Party just for you We just want the money Money just for you (Yeah) Usually you want money for yourself and to party for yourself, so this is a bit odd. But what Gambino is referring to is similar to these Diddy ‘freakoff parties’ we are hearing about where people who want to be famous are really partying for these rap moguls so they can get close to them. Where they suck up to them saying that they want to earn the mogul money from their songs.
I know you wanna party Party just for free Girl, you got me dancin' (Girl, you got me dancin') Dance and shake the frame (Yeah) Then this almost feels like the Diddy rebuttal where he’s like ya I know you want to party and you want to do it for free. Like Katt Williams says, “you gotta tell Diddy no”, it is never free to go to those parties. There are always consequences. When you are partying you are dancing, but shaking the frame could refer to how those boundaries/edges are being crossed, lines are blurred, etc.
Then in the video, the fellow who was playing the guitar gets shot and things turn dark from happy music. I believe that this guitar tune is meant to represent 2Pac and Nas’s song Thugz Mansion. It’s one of the original greats from ‘in the beginning’. Nas famously has always had major issues with Jay-Z too (More on why 2Pac and Nas later). It also represents how it was these moguls who murdered 2Pac like Jaguar Wright and Katt Williams keep saying. Where these murders only lead to more money and fame for the killers when the dead artists’ and their music are exploited more easily.
Also note that the gun gets taken away by a school kid after the shooting, more on this later as well.
[Verse 1: Childish Gambino, Young Thug, Blocboy JB & 21 Savage] This is America (Skrrt, skrrt, woo) Don't catch you slippin' now (Ayy) Look how I'm livin' now Police be trippin' now (Woo) Yeah, this is America (Woo, ayy) Guns in my area (Word, my area) There is a song called Guns in My Area by Lil Weiner and Baby Chapox that paints a vivid picture of the everyday struggles and conflicts faced by those living in communities affected by gun violence. More compression of other songs and the American gun culture.
I got the strap (Ayy, ayy) I gotta carry 'em I am almost certain this line is referring to 2Pac’s song Changes. Throughout This is America, Gambino takes lines from Pac’s song:
“They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone” (referred to later in this a Celly, that’s tool)
“That's the sound of my tool, you say it ain't cool, My mama didn't raise no fool” “And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped, And I never get to lay back” It seems like Gambino broke up these lyrics and scattered them throughout his song. This plays into the theme that everyone is using 2Pac and enriching themselves off of his image and music. I show below how this particular section of the video represents Diddy meaning that Diddy himself is exploiting his music (and alleging that Diddy killed Pac?). We could see this exploitation play out at length with how much Diddy milked the death of Biggie like in Every Breath You Take.
Yeah, yeah, I'ma go into this (Ugh) Yeah, yeah, this is guerilla (Woo) Yeah, yeah, I'ma go get the bag The song Gorilla War by $uicideboy$ and Ramirez talks about getting a bag repeatedly in the course. Also in Otis with Kanye and Jay-Z their lyrics talk about going gorilla (I talk about this song more further down), so it could be referring to this as well. It seems like Gambino is trying to pull out lyrics from all across the rap culture and embed them in his song to highlight the ‘cultural compression’.
Yeah, yeah, I'm so cold like, yeah (Yeah) I'm so dope like, yeah (Woo) We gon' blow like, yeah (Straight up, uh) I think that all of the school kids in the video represent all of the rappers that are signed with these big labels. Which is interesting because they are the ones facilitating the guns for the moguls in the video. You can see that the mogul is really focused on the kids and gets agitated and directs them to follow him whenever they stray off a bit like they are his pupils, or like he owns them. Then all of a sudden the camera comes into a scene where you can see more kids shooting a rap video and all shooting money from a Supreme gun. The camera zooms out almost to show you that this is the mogul’s whole rap empire they are looking over, all of their kids in one place (this empire already includes some chaos in the background). It’s subtle but hilarious, Gambino puts fricken chickens on the ground where the kids are filming the rap video. He is directly calling all of these rappers complete chickens for playing up this lifestyle and being the cause of so much chaos rather than coming out and telling somebody what’s really going on. Trying to get their money over everything else.
[Refrain: Choir & Childish Gambino] Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, tell somebody You go tell somebody Grandma told me Get your money, Black man (Get your— Black man) This is where things start to get interesting. Gambino is literally saying, go tell somebody about this! We all know what’s happening, why don’t you go let people know how bad it is? But like Jaguar Wright said, who do you tell when these moguls have the cops and feds paid off? This video is literally Gambino putting it all out there in this extremely popular song for everyone to see but yet we still just see the dancing and the violent chaos of people and police in the streets and not the root cause that is hidden in plain sight.
The vast majority of those who reviewed this video until now think this scene represents the tragic church shooting in Charleston in 2015. I think it does, but we also have to look at this from an angle of compression.
The people in the choir are all of the people who are currently singing the rap mogul’s praises and who are focused on going and getting what’s owed to them, get their money (who are also profiting off of the dead fellows music since it goes back to the original tune). You can see that each choir member has a distinct look to them. Think about who you are hearing about now who is about to be implicated in these freak offs and evil deeds. Is that Will Smith in the back left corner!? The short bald fellow in the front left maybe Kevin Hart? Rick Ross or TD Jakes maybe the bigger guy towards the back right? When the camera zooms in on the choir right at first to show their faces, doesn’t the guy in the bottom middle look like an uncanny version of Jordan Peele? Or is that meant to be Cuba Gooding Jr? Then just like the guitar fellow at the beginning, bang. You may be singing Diddy’s praises now, but he will cut you down whenever he suddenly feels like it.
I think almost for sure this initial section of the music video is Gambino acting as Diddy, because right after he shoots the choir, he does the elbow pump/chicken dance. At 3:14 in Diddy’s video for P.E. 2000 he does the chicken dance (he is up first in the video and I think Gambino is trying to say here I first present to you the first public enemy of 3 in this song). That elbow dance signals that it was Diddy and this is the end of his section.
[Chorus: Childish Gambino, Young Thug, Slim Jxmmi & Quavo] This is America (Woo, ayy) Don't catch you slippin' now (Woo, woo, don't catch you slippin' now) Don't catch you slippin' now (Ayy, woah) Look what I'm whippin' now (Slime!) There have been many accounts of celebrities being given fancy cars after suffering abuse at the hands of these moguls. So these lyrics are saying that you better not slip up and tell people what’s really going on. And if you don’t look at this sweet carecord deal/movie contract I am going to give you. Beiber told this story about Diddy wanting to give him a luxury car.
Now suddenly, the dance switches from the chicken dance to a sudden bicep flex to signal us that we have now moved on from Gambino representing Diddy to our next mogul.
[Verse 2: Childish Gambino, Quavo, Young Thug, 21 Savage & BlocBoy JB] This next chunk of the video is all about Jay-Z. I think this is the case because he throws his arms up in a bicep flex just like Jay does in the Otis music video at 2:38. And it makes sense Gambino would pick a dance move from a video with a huge American flag in the background to fit the ‘This is America’ theme. Gambino is mocking him saying, who are you really, the pretty guy or this hard gangster like Gambino shows in his dancing. Also right before they pan to the kids on the balcony, Bino also does Jay-Z’s signature lip curl look a couple times so we know it’s him and to signal the end of his section.
Look how I'm geekin' out (Hey) I'm so fitted (I'm so fitted, woo) Jay-Z is famous for making the fitted Yankees cap famous, it’s his signature look. More signs this verse is about Jay.
I'm on Gucci (I'm on Gucci) Jay-Z has been seen in full wallpaper Gucci sweat suits but could also be referring to Gucci Mane who he hung out with at Beyonce’s tour around the time this song was released.
I'm so pretty (Yeah, yeah, woo) I'm gon' get it (Ayy, I'm gon' get it) Watch me move (Blaow) These lines are probably referring to Jay-Z having a hidden preference for men, especially with the way Gambino flicks his wrist in the video when he says I’m so pretty.
This a celly (Ha) That's a tool (Yeah) On my Kodak (Woo) Black I think that “this a celly, that’s a tool” harkens back to 2Pac’s lyrics in Changes where he sings, “They get jealous when they see ya with your mobile phone” then shortly after that he sings about the sound of his tool, referring to shooting a gun. But Childish flips these lyrics on their head. He is saying that it’s really the phone that’s a tool to be using, not a gun. And pans up and shows (the school kids specifically) on the balcony filming everything going on below. He’s telling the kids/other rappers, use your phone as a tool, you can record these bad deeds when you get blackmailed into being at the freak off. That’s how you can kill them and their career, not with a gun. Go tell somebody! There is also the reference to Kodak which plays into the picture taking theme, but also because Kodak Black has been accused of assaulting a teenage girl in a hotel room. So we have a good idea of what Gambino suggests all the kids start filming and collecting evidence of.
Ooh, know that (Yeah, know that, hold on) Get it (Woo, get it, get it) Ooh, work it (21) Now we are onto Drake’s part. In the video Gambino starts doing the BlocBoy JB dance called Shoot. Drake is known for doing these little viral dance moves like in Hotline Bling. But not only that, this dance is also used in the song that both BlocBoy JB and Drake collaborate on for their video Look Alive. It starts at 2:07 in the Look Alive video. So this is Drake’s dance to signal his part is now starting.
Note this is where the pale horse rides by also potentially saying that Drake is one of the horsemen of the apocalypse. Interestingly, Drake’s collab with BlocBoy JB was pretty much the apocalypse for BlocBoy’s career, who hasn’t had a hit since.
Hunnid bands, hunnid bands, hunnid bands (Hunnid bands) Contraband, contraband, contraband (Contraband) I got the plug in Oaxaca (Woah) They gonna find you like "blocka" (Blaow) Again, we know this is Drake’s section because his song 10 bands starts out by saying “10 bands, 50 bands, 100 bands” almost identical to Bino’s lyrics here. Also Blocka was famously used by Biggie in his song Gimme the Loot which could be referring to Biggie's demise like Pac’s and making money from his death. Everything in this industry originates from pushing drugs, which has been alleged through the trafficking that Diddy, Jay-Z and Drake do through their private jets likely connected to their bosses, the Clive Davises and Lucian Grainges of the world. This escalates rap beefs and the whole culture to the next level where murder is often a consequence for young rappers in their prime when international drug lord money is involved.
An interesting point is this is the only time where Childish was about to shoot someone in the video, but where he didn’t have a school kid either handing him the gun or taking it away carefully from him. (Maybe also a diss at Drake that even though he acts hard he doesn’t shoot, he gets his horseman of the apocalypse to do his dirty deeds for him instead perhaps?). This is the beginning of the end for the rap mogul as he no longer has his kids doing his bidding for him. A simple message to show how the violence can be stopped, that these shootings can end when the kids stop enabling them. So then as soon as he can’t react in that moment and shoot someone his anger is forced to chill out, as shown by smoking a J, and to go back to exploiting the dead man’s music instead. If you don’t put a gun in someone’s hand when they are heated, those feelings too shall pass - kinda feel.
[Refrain: Choir, Childish Gambino, & Young Thug] Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, tell somebody America, I just checked my following list, and You mothafuckas owe me Whose voice does that sound like!? It sounds a lot like Diddy to me, public enemy #1. This is basically saying that the moguls are the ones who we all owe it to for all of this glorified gun violence in America. That we owe them way more follows and likes for what a massive influence they have had on the violence and chaos we see in America today.
Grandma told me Get your money, Black man (Black man) (1, 2, 3—get down) In Moneybagg Yo’s song 1, 2, 3, he also has a line that says “1, 2, 3, let’s go!” in a similar vein.
But something interesting I came across was Nas’s song Get Down where they use a sample from James Brown's “The Boss” that sounds extremely similar to the way Gambino screams “Get Down!” Which would fit well if the guitar singer from the beginning is meant to be Nas and Pac doing Thugz Mansion.
Also make sure you check out Nas’s song Get Down so that you can hear how much Jay-Z outright copied this song for The Story of OJ. From the musical structure with the piano and interwoven samples right down to the theme reiterated by the sample at the end of Nas’s song: “If that’s how our people are gonna get down, how are we ever gonna get up?”
SZA Finally to wrap up the video, I have been stumped for a long time as to why SZA is randomly at the end of this video sitting on one of the cars. But I think I finally know why and it reconfirms that this last scene is all about Drake. If you watch Drake’s music video for Worst Behavior (not very Canadian of him to spell behaviour that way I might add) you will see Drake rapping and dancing with a few cars surrounding him and one of those cars has other rappers making cameos in it. In Gambino’s video SZA represents that car with a famous cameo. I think this is further confirmed when the black edges of the video start closing inwards at the end of This is America, the exact same way that Worst Behavior ends. So why SZA as the cameo then? Cause it reminds people that Drake is a p*do.
This is from an article in the Rolling Stone: In 2020, Drake revealed publicly that he and SZA had dated over a decade ago, well before she was an established artist (her earliest music goes back to around 2012; her critical breakthrough, Ctrl, came in 2017). On 21 Savage’s “Mr. Right Now,” Drake rapped about a newer fling who was a fan of SZA’s: “Yeah, said she wanna fuck to some SZA, wait / ‘Cause I used to date SZA back in ’08 / If you cool with it, baby, she can still play.” A few days later, SZA responded, corroborating Drake’s claim with a slight correction: they dated in 2009, when both would have been over 18. Since SZA would not have turned 18 until late 2008, she wanted to set the record straight. “in this case a year of poetic rap license mattered 🥴lol I think he jus innocently rhymed 08 w wait [sic],” she tweeted. “I just didn’t want anybody thinking anything underage or creepy was happening . Completely innocent . Lifetimes ago . [sic]”
If you have to specifically say something isn’t creepy and distance yourself from it being lifetimes ago, it usually is creepy. Drake would’ve been 22 when she was 17. Metro Boomin also happens to be on the Mr. Right Now track. He is currently in trouble for resurfaced old tweets showing how Metro used to tweet disgusting things about what he wanted to do to underage girls. Interestingly, Metro Boomin is also now beefing with Drake.
Drake doing his dance on the car of the original musician’s music seems to be accusing Drake directly of stealing 2Pac’s music. Orlando Brown recently said the cryptic statement that “Drake is Pac” which likely means he stole 2Pac’s approach/style/audience after his death. Gambino did some good foreshadowing here too with the recent AI release Drake put out of 2Pac.
This dance scene also signals that the Drake section is now over.
[Outro: Young Thug] You just a black man in this world You just a barcode, ayy You just a black man in this world Drivin' expensive foreigns, ayy You just a big dawg, yeah I kenneled him in the backyard No, probably ain't life to a dog For a big dog The outro lyrics speak to how these gatekeepers keep black men down and control them with things like being forced to wear a dress to become famous or to submit to homosexual/p*do acts.. In the video, as I mentioned above, the black edges close in on Drake’s dancing scene in This is America. But they don’t completely close and end things like they do in the Worst Behavior video. Instead, in Gambino’s video, the camera pans to show the mogul running for his life with Young Thug’s lyrics almost like a quiet echo in the background. He isn’t running from the cops though, he’s running from the kids and from the public. When I mentioned earlier that the kids not handing over the last gun before Drake’s scene signalled the beginning of the end for the moguls, this is that conclusion. Where it is showing that if all the kids come together to stop enabling and rather expose the moguls, people will be chasing these bastards down once we realize what has been going on behind the curtain. Then the song that Young Thug is singing can just be a quiet echo of the way things were in the past.
If you don’t think Gambino would be this deep and that I went too far down the rabbit hole, do a Google search on the calculations that he came up with for why he sings about loving until 3005 in his song. He seems to go real deep with his lyrics. So a big question this leaves us with is, what did Childish Gambino witness in the rap industry? His whole rap career plays out like he is trying to avoid industry norms.
Even in Sweatpants, he has lyrics like:
No hands like soccer teams and y'all fuck boys like Socrates You niggas ain't coppin' these, niggas ain't lookin' like me (Nah) Nah, I ain't checkin' I.D. (Nah), but I bounce 'em with no problem Seems like he is trying to make it really clear across his catalogue of music that he isn’t a p*do but that other rappers are. Where he is saying that he doesn’t need to ID his potential partners because he can tell they are obviously too young and that’s not hard to do.
Tell 'em, Problem (Problem!) I'm winnin', yeah, yeah, I'm winnin' (What?)... Rich kid, asshole, paint me as a villain So who was trying to paint him as a villain, Drake? And that’s why the diss was originally meant for him?
Don't be mad 'cause I'm doing me better than you doing you… Better than you doing you Fuck it, what you gon' do? (What?!) He’s taunting the other rappers cause he knows they can’t say shit if they are creeps. He has the same sentiment in Bonfire “It’s a bonfire, turn the lights out, I’m burning everything you mother fuckers talk about.”
Childish Gambino has always refrained from talking about the meaning of This is America whenever he is asked, and I can only assume that all of this is why.
Little Foot Big Foot Now with his new release, Little Foot Big Foot and applying cultural compression to it, it has me wondering if he is referring to Megan Thee Stallion and the Nicki beef? People like Nicki (calling Megan Big Foot) have been claiming for some time she wasn’t even shot in the foot by Tory Lanez. There were many people laughing and making fun of Megan over getting shot. Which could be an interesting story for Childish to tell to represent how crazy this violent culture has gotten that people just laugh and blame the victim now when you get shot. Also a good metaphor for things like ‘shooting yourself in the foot’ for not having a lawyer look over potentially predatory industry contracts like in the beginning of his video. That you want to get in the cool kids club so bad you overlook it. Not as sure on this one though since the song just came out and I have only heard it a few times.
One last thing that is really interesting, there have been tons of artists on podcasts like Shay Shay talking about the strings these ultra rich moguls can pull. Like buying awards or gatekeeping people from being in the industry at all. There was even a story, I think maybe it was Gene Deal who told it, that when Killer Mike won at the grammys that Jay-Z was so angry he made sure to mess up his night by getting him locked up as soon as he left the awards stage. These moguls are extremely powerful and have an incredible amount of sway in the world/industry. If you check out Gambino’s profile on Youtube, his old music videos keep getting taken down, like Bonfire for example is just gone. Fans have been having to upload the videos themselves. There is a reply to a comment, on one of the fan uploaded vids, from Gambino’s account himself when someone asks why the videos are being taken down. His account just replies “Noone knows why :(“ Seems a bit odd all things considered and like maybe he has been at the mercy of these gatekeepers for going against the system.
I am so curious to know what the rest of you think about all of this!

I want to hear about people’s opinions on whether this guy is a false teacher or not? Hard to ascertain without maybe watching a sermon. Red flags for me is he’s been on the Sid Roth show on TBN. He’s often on TBN And the Victory Channel (a Copeland Ministry network) and Charisma News. Which solid teachers usually should be steering clear of partnering with any of these. Here’s an amazon link to one of his five books with a brief vague about the author description

2024.05.14 23:18 Broken-Babe-2002 Meeting with a Sister for my RCIA interview and I'm terified
So I have a meeting with a Sister at my local parish in about an hour to do my interview to see if I can get in to their RCIA program, I am beyond terrified. This is such a huge step for me and something I've wanted for so long and I'm so scared of messing it up and not getting in.
I didn't realize I would have to interview to get in and I've been doing and absolutely bombing so many job interviews lately that I'm scared I'll fail this one too. Not to mention I don't know what to wear, the last church I went to was literally a blue jeans and clean shirt type of place, I only own one button up dress shirt but it's hot here and that makes this miserable to wear. I don't know what to expect from the interview or what I might be asked so I can prepare for it. I'm just all around panicking

2024.05.14 23:15 notathrowaway_321 Asking about a book
Hello everyone! I am asking all of you about a book that I lost and can't remember the name of. It's about mythology (obviously) specifically gods and goddesses around the world in every mythology. It has lots of pictures and is small and kinda like an atlas or an almanac but for gods.
In the introduction, I remember reading about Saint Augustine joking to give the mother some job because the process of childbirth have many goddesses to pray to. It also has a description on how the Ifugao people has more than 1k gods.
Anyway I appreciate your responses. Thank you.
P.S If you don't know, that's alright. Just recommend me some books with a similar subject.

2024.05.14 23:15 empthetic_sourpatch 37[f4m]Toronto,Canada-She was simple like quantum physics✨
Hello there!
I am introvert who likes to play extrovert in life and it’s been okay so far! I am currently in an ethically non-monogamous relationship. I am open, talkative and socially confident person and love to text/chat/voice call. My friends find me kind, caring, compassionate and funny. I work in healthcare and I do find purpose in my job and interacting with people on a daily basis..it can be challenging at times but extremely rewarding as well.
In terms of interests I love reading, cooking, hiking, people watching and traveling whenever I can. I have a decent amount of interesting travel anecdotes to share. Also, open to travel suggestions and recommendations. Prague, Paris and Grindelwald are the most charming cities I have ever been to. Next on my bucket list is Portugal and Italy. I love to talk endlessly about history, science, art, mythology, culture, astronomy, psychology and spirituality. I am currently learning breath-work and meditation.
I am passionate about my career and love what I do and making a difference. I still yearn to go back to school again to study some more. I am inherently curious and I love learning . I am also a huge supporter of causes relating mental health and women education and empowerment.
Now for what I am looking for I am looking to make deep meaningful connection with someone between 30-45 years ( preferably local) of age which can be potentially romantic. Also I am not looking for anything sexual or physical for now and being a demisexual I need to make a deep mental and emotional connection to bond with them. I am preferably looking for someone I can chat with, share our interests, talk about our days and the looming existential crisis lol! I am open to meeting if we get along and it feels right.. ☺️
I want to talk or text with them often and I would love to talk to someone about my day and my wishes and my desires. Books and music suggestions are always welcomed.
Please drop me a message if anything I said interested you! I am a feminist, pro choice, LGBTQA+ ally and BLM supporter so if you are not, we probably won’t get along.
Please DO NOT message me to just say “Hi/Hello” if you are bored! Say more than that, and please introduce yourself with a short description of yourself..🎤

2024.05.14 23:08 Open-Ground-2501 Tim Ferris question
I just listened to a Tim Ferris episode (Modern Wisdom). Generally I find the way these people atomize their lives, and then discuss with one another how effectively they atomize their lives to maximize atomization for themselves and their audience (most of whom work real jobs and couldn’t ever keep up, poor souls), to be in many ways potentially missing the point of life. But that’s a personal opinion. What I was most curious about when listening to the detailed descriptions of their methodologies is how on earth will this square with having children? How does it even square with having a relationship? Are there people out there who have all their routines for every facet of life worked out to this degree and managed a family at the same time? Is it possible, or will the second act of these types be to tell us all how they’ve adapted to a more holistic way of life with children? Genuinely curious for opinions. Thanks.

2024.05.14 23:02 sexycharizard The Apathy has already set in. Time for a break from us.
We saw a post that mentioned that complaints aren't the end. The complaints comes from a place of care for the game and how they wish and can see how the game can be better. However, when the complaints are unheard and mocked some people working at AH, the apathy will set in and kill that game.
This was the first week where my SO and I didn't touch helldivers at all. Even with full jobs, we we're playing hours and hours everyday after work and clocked in with 200 hours so far. We looked forward to it. It was all we could talk about and we were just exploring how fun some weapons and loadouts were.
However, after the nerfs to weapons (that made no sense and removed all of the fun such as the Eruptor, crossbow, and slugger to name a few) patrol changes to screw with parties less than 4, frequent crashes, how some items are just useless (Thermite and machine gun sentry to name a few) and weapon/strategem bugs that still linger to this day, this game went from one of our top favorite games to one of our most frustrating games to play. When the community has a running joke to not mention the weapons they like using in fear of a nerf, you know the direction of the game is in a bad spot. It makes it feel like it's players vs devs instead of working together.
The new warbond just sealed the deal with the incomplete weapons and reskins of armors that made no sense to the theme of the warbond. It really shows how little any QA is done before shipping things out (Can't believe they ship out the tier 4 ship modules and the very first one was bugged). Also, something that expedited the apathy is how some of the devs are a bit out of touch of what the community wants (insert quote from a certain someone about how it takes 10,000 hours to test and nothing will be released until 2028 and how all of these weapons are all S tier). Why balance things for difficulty 4-6 if super samples and progressions is locked behind difficulty 7? That just makes no sense.
Love y'all. Love the community. It really shows that y'all care for the game and you just want the game to succeed. The game is still fun sometimes but it's just draining overlooking the glaring issues. Maybe we'll be back but there are so many good games out there that just aren't frustrating to play. Games should be fun and for a PvE game, the sole purpose shouldn't to nerf all of the enjoyment out of everything (and then call it an exploit when that's sole purpose was the only reason why people were using the gun). Buff the other stuff (like the blitzer or senator). See y'all at another time fellow Helldivers. It's time to return to civilian life for a bit.

THE OBLIGATORY "IS THIS A SCAM?" QUESTION: Considering the fact that you found my contact information online, it’s understandable to be skeptical regarding the legitimacy of my services. Therefore, I’m willing to do all of the following to help you feel more secure in trusting me with your academic needs:
- 1) Speak with you on the phone and answer any questions you may have so that you have the opportunity to assess and analyze my tone, articulation, accent, diction, dialect, regionalisms, pitch, vocabulary, word choice, intonations, and inflections.
- NOTE: I’m a New Jersey-born Irish/Italian-American, but I have been told that I speak in an erudite & articulate suburban American accent with a “professor style” voice somewhat resembling the voice of actor: Ben Stein.
- 2) Agree to do some homework questions of yours upfront with the work fully shown in real-time to prove my mastery of the course content.
- 3) Send you screenshots of at least five past scores I attained from completing exams & homework assignments for other students in the same type of class you need help with.
- 4) Send you full screenshots of written exam solutions I wrote up by hand for students in the past in the same course that you need help with so that you can see my neat handwriting.
- 5) Provide you with the contact information of students who have utilized my services in the past who would be more than willing to vouch for my skills.
MY REBUTTAL TO THE OBLIGATORY “IS THIS A SCAM?” QUESTION: At the risk of sounding arrogant, I consider myself to be at least marginally more intelligent (both academically & socially) than the average person. Therefore, if I ever decided to suddenly risk prison time, risk my reputation, and risk enduring the wrath of modern-day “cancel culture” by scamming people out of their money:
- I certainly wouldn’t do it for such paltry amounts of money. (i.e., anything less than $1,000 per victim.)
- I certainly wouldn’t choose high school & college students as my “target audience” to scam, considering that most people without college degrees have abysmally low annual incomes. Why choose low-income victims when it would be much more profitable to target high-income, high-net-worth individuals earning at least six figures a year? I have knowledge in business consulting, and I promise you that a business owner would be a MUCH more lucrative mark than a low-income college student.
- I wouldn’t choose such a time & energy-draining method of scamming people. Also, communicating back and forth with potential clients is an absurdly long time sink since only less than 10% of all potential clients who reach out to me actually become paying clients of mine. This means that 90% of my time communicating with potential clients ultimately proves to be a colossal waste of my irretrievable time & energy.
- If you pay me to provide academic services and I don’t deliver, you can always dispute the payment with the payment app and easily get your money refunded. If I were in the habit of swindling money from people, then all of my payment accounts would have been investigated and be completely shut down by now. And I would have been permanently banned from opening new accounts. Therefore, the fact that all my payment apps have been fully active for years should be sufficient proof that I haven’t had people consistently disputing payments sent to me.

2024.05.14 22:57 Fit-Tradition4630 Recruiter feedback
| Been out of work for about a month but had been looking to leave my last job due to its toxic environment. Unfortunately I was let go before I had any job offers. Well I've applied to nearly 100 jobs that are same if not very similar to what my previous roles have been. Gotten maybe 5 interviews and plenty of " thanks for applying however we decided to go with someone else" generated emails. I did get one email from the TA and in similar fashion me that the company decided not to move forward with my application. I replied and asked for feedback on why the company though I either wasn't qualified or what was the lack of experience my work history lacks. Again, all applications I've sent are roles that closely match my experience based on their job description. The recruited replied saying that they actually liked my experience but rather were not pleased with my desired pay for said role since my desired pay is 15K more than the max they can offer. That's with me significantly reducing my asking salary due to current job market value. Also not directly related to this particular job posting but I had an interview with a diferent company this past Friday for a role that is similar and the interview went well until the hiring manager brought up pay to which they said the max they could offer was 40k a year. I'm sure many will agree that job postings should include the pay range for said role as this particular one along with others didn't provide that information. This job market is competitive and with many job posting not including that info it makes it hard to really evaluate what's fair out there. For some context I've been a warehouse manager for some time(6 years as manager and 4 as a supervisor) and before this I've never has any issues with negotiating salary that both parties can agree on. Any advice anyone can offer or maybe some similar situations for anyone else? submitted by Fit-Tradition4630 to jobhunting [link] [comments] |
