iiGxC,

Some people have mirrored internal organs, so this advice may be the ophosite for you. But also, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it, sleep however’s comfiest for you and lets you get the best sleep you can

If I don’t know how to do something in gui: maybe click around or google it, it takes a while

If I don’t know how to do something in cli: command --help or man command 90% of the time I find what I need right away

iiGxC,

Hopefully fossify will release fossify messenger soon. Fossify’s a project forking all the simple apps

iiGxC,

And why would you be ridiculed and scorned for opening up emotionally?

because people are mean and repeat the mean things that have been done to them, and difficult emotions make people uncomfortable and one way to avoid them is punishing people who do open up

iiGxC,

not literally punished, but socially responded to negatively. I’ve been lucky that I haven’t experienced it much (and even then, I still struggle to open up), but it’s a very real thing. For men, one umbrella term that includes this concept is “toxic masculinity”

iiGxC,

Find hobbies or projects or do stuff with friends to the point that you don’t have time for movies and youtube

When you’re at the store, don’t buy junk food. If it’s in the house it’ll be extremely difficult to say no to, but while shopying it’s easier to make a more rational decision. Also, plan your meals for the week and maybe meal prep

iiGxC,

I drank huel for a while, then plenny. I switched because plenny doesn’t add thickener, which makes it way easier to drink and use in smoothies and stuff

Why do christian apologists say the name of the person they're talking to so often?

I’m sure there are other groups that do it too, but I’ve noticed it most often from christian apologists, probably in part case I like listening to debates/discussions with them from atheist youtubers, but I’ve also noticed it talking to christians myself....

Yeah, I mean among friends and coworkers people will definitely call each other by name, and that does still feel weird but not nearly as much. The frequency they use names is just way less and the tone/attitude is different

iiGxC,

The level of weird it feels to me is pretty different.

When friends do it, and it’s so infrequent, it’s like a very small feeling, and the majority of the weirdness feeling actually comes from me thinking about how I almost never call people by their name, and I’m probably the weird one, and maybe I should make an effort to do it more.

When I see it being done a lot in one conversation it’s a big feeling, and as other people have pointed out, I think a big chunk of the weirdness vibe I get is from the technique being used in a condescending way. And then each time it happens in the same conversation the weird feeling feeds into and amplifies itself, which is what ended up pushing me to ask
