I remember there, when the Russian Internet connection went down, and for like a day all those kinds of posts nearly evaporated.
Oh shit, I remember this one. For a short time Reddit became a loooooooooot friendlier. Not friendly but friendlier. You could have a nice conversation with someone opposing your views and it came to an actual trade of insights. I valued that a lot. No fucking derailment with stupid ass nonsense and childish jibes. (At least for the most part. Reddit is after all Reddit)
Breaking with people who turn out completely insane.
Which actually might cover the entire human population. No, I mean the crazy Facebook uncle kind of insane. Life is so much more pleasant when you surround yourself with people who you love or at least tolerate.
Sorry this is kinda political. Is there an asklemmypolitics group this would be better for? I’m hoping not to get into the libs vs progressives political debate we see everywhere on here… Just want to know what people are actually looking for.
Edit: A few people have interpreted the title as serious, so I wanna clarify that it was meant as a sarcastic joke about how little sense the neurotypical world makes to me, but it is still legitimately me asking for help understanding said neurotypical world....
Alright. That’s bullshit. Not entirely. But it’s riddled with it. The “k” part, I understand. This can be considered rude and to be honest, it’s my way of saying “whatever dude”.
BUT that’s how I use it. I have met people who use it as a lazy but friendly way of “alright, got it”. So it depends on who uses it and what its intention is supposed to be. You either have to be incredibly nuanced or have to know the person who is using it to properly interpret it. Which your friend kinda doesn’t. I’m not blaming her. I fail at it way too often myself.
The “ending a sentence with a period” on the other hand? My answer would have been “Are you high?!” Seriously, it doesn’t make any sense and it sounds made up.
Edit: Thinking about this makes me even angry ffs.
Yes, I know. It’s a bull like creature with a giant shell on its back or whatever. But what I see every single fucking time is a huge ass skull with tusks.
As you may have guessed, the economic downturn and two world wars sandwiching the decades when motorcycle chariot racing was invented probably wasn’t a great time to introduce the sport. It quickly fizzled out just about as abruptly as it arrived, which is super unfortunate considering how cool it is.
Shit has actually a strange history to it. At the beginning there was an online group by and for involuntary celibates. It was a place where people could come together and try to process their situation. The loneliness, the depression, etc.
Now comes the M. Night Shyamalan plot twist: The founder was a woman. They came up with „invcel“ as short for involuntary celibates. Which later turned into „incel“ because it sounded better.
So, things were going dandy and that group did some good to help people. After some time she left the group. Just moved on to other projects. With her leaving the site started to (for a lack of better words) fucking degenerate. The whole movement became what we all know and hate today.
An unknown number of orcas sunk a sailing yacht in Moroccan waters in the Strait of Gibraltar on Sunday, according to Spain’s maritime rescue service. While orcas are typically peaceful, this is the latest in a string of attacks that have hit the region in the past four years....
In 2020, photos of the Gladis pod revealed several injuries on the orcas’ bodies, possibly indicating previous run-ins with fishing boats. In a 2023 interview with NPR, director of the Orca Behavior Institute Monika Wieland Shields said we don’t know the motivation, but this could be a defense behavior based on previous trauma. It’s possible the orcas had negative experiences with a fishing boat, so now they see all large boats as a threat.
Here are my two cents for you as a beginner (seriously, this made me appreciate the game a lot more):
Find yourself a training partner. Any standard Samurai at the beginning will do. You need to get good at parrying. Yeah I know, I ignored that in everything From Soft before that, including Bloodborne. But in Sekiro it is the difference between “having a blast” and “dying repeatedly until you give up”.
After that you can more or less brute force your way to the top of Ashina Castle. You made it there? Good. Find one of these guys. There is one immediately after the first shrine as soon as you make it into the castle. Give him a name, I named mine Garry. Garry is harder to kill and his attacks come faster and harder. But they are still possible to read. See it as some kind of “advanced parry training”.
Do not dash forward. Do not get greedy. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. Stay with Garry and train your parry skills. You need hours? Then stay there for hours.
As soon as you can handle Garry with ease, go into the very next room and tackle multiple Garrys. Study that blade. The next boss, at the very top of the castle, is a hard reset for many players. It’s kinda like Father Gascoigne in Bloodborne. He is hard, seemingly unfair even. But if you beat him, you can beat anything in the game.
After that boss you won’t get frustrated when coming across a strong boss, you will get exited!

Why are neurotypicals in charge of making up the social rules? They're not even very good at it.
