Why is it so hard to make friends as an adult?
I’ve realized meeting new people in your 20s is way harder than school. Everyone has routines. How do people even find new friends that actually click?
when reading a song name out loud that has a part in parenthesis, how to you say it?
for example, when saying the song "platypus (I hate you)" by green day, do you say:
"platypus by green day"
"I hate you by green day"
"platypus I hate you by green day"
"platypus in parenthesis I hate you by green day"
Do you think that the reason kids aren’t doing as well in school today is because they don’t see opportunities in the fu
Partially due to social media and negativity bias, but also due to the systemic issues in particularly the United States. I’m a college student and I have a rough time seeing the way forward, and I’m somewhat fortunate (\\\*knocks on wood\\\*). Imagine what it’s like for low income kids? It must be so difficult to care in school if you don’t see a possibility of success in the future? Or can barely see it?
I’m just wondering if anyone else has thought past the “phone root cause and bad” and come to this realization.
EDIT; to add, I imagine that it’s even more intense in college because so many jobs just require a degree no matter what. So the degree is no longer viewed as an act of dedication to your study, but rather a simple requirement. I also think this explains the rise of AI in cheating.
Do you know the basics of first aid?
Recently saw a post where someone was concerned why wounds weren't healing as they kept it clean and continued to remove the scabs but it would never close. They were legitimately confused.
It got me thinking about how much do people actually know?
I grew up in bumfuck nowhere and pretty much played outside. I was very accident prone so I got really familiar with peroxide, alcohol, bandaid, etc. and general wound care. I think by like 7 I was patching myself up instead of hunting down my parents or siblings.
It never really crossed my mind that there are still people who don't know things like ***leave that fucking scab alone you are just causing pain and making it heal a thousand times slower!***
