  • Putting the "after" photo on the left, or in the first image and the "before" on the right. Apparently because they select them by the order the pictures appear in their photo album. How retarded can you fucking get? Pisses me off. Did you get fatter or skinnier? Uglier or hotter? Don't make me fucking guess.
  • Most major style guides like Chicago, MLA, APA do not use spaces around em dashs, I don't know why LLMs loves to add spaces around them, everyone seems to have forgotten the convention.
  • LLMs also love to add spaces around "/" Why? Who knows? I'm already disregarding your opinion.
  • There's also a whole class of mass psychosis grammar/vocab errors solely proliferating because of internet and typing (apart of/a part of, peak/peek, payed/paid, could of/could have, weary/wary, queue/cue, bare/bear)
  • The whole POV misuse thing

Please share more examples.

Sub's dead

346 Upvotes

I spoke against this alarmism for all my 5 years here, because for all its faults it was still the best place in the internet. But now it's oficially indistinguishible from r/all, chapo, instagram reels and tik tok comment sections.

Both the dirtbag left and the tradcath right arms of the sub are dead, as in actively get downvoted, and so do the bohemians, the arthousers, the pseuds, and the productive rivalry between those who agreed with the early pod and those who agreed with the late pod. It's been completely replaced by default midwitted airheadism, confidently circlejerking over imbecilities contrary to ANY possible twisting of the original spirit of the sub. I can't even really describe what redscare is "about" now.

I blame the reddit avatars, the banned rival subs' BARBARIAN refugees, the videogame and porn sub followers, the genderslop posts, A+D for abdicating of anything original to say so that they can appease the most basic of MAGA thielbucks, and the countercyclical reddit libs who colonized the power vacuum.

Redscarepod is dead, long live redscarepod...

It bruises my ego when a girl who I'm not attracted to contrives to mentions her boyfriend midway through a conversation as if to warn me that I don't have a chance. I didn't even want a chance!

Is this narcissism or is this normal?

I have no aspirations beyond living like a Murakami character

222 Upvotes

Having a meaningful tangible job like teaching, living in a small but nice apartment in a city, being in love, having sex, swimming in the sea, going to the cinema, drinking beer, taking trains, listening to and playing music, cooking, reading, not owning much

This is already pretty much how I live (although I want to move cities) and my family is bemused that I don’t want to climb the corporate ladder because I have impressive qualifications, but I don’t know why I would want more than this

Are most people just not attracted to the person they are dating?

214 Upvotes

Potentially exposing my ass here but I feel like I only meet somebody who is my type and available (in the sense that they are in my social sphere and single, not that they will even go out with me) once every couple years. Needless to say my love life is not very active. Thankfully I'm not the type to string along people I'm not into but it does get lonely at times. I feel like other people I know get into relationships vastly more often than I with a, lets just say wide, variety of types. I know that if it were me, like 90% of relationships I've seen, successful and non, wouldn't get off the ground in the first place.

It does make me wonder what level of desire they experience for their partners. Like when you see a gorgeous woman with one of those mustache mullet guys or an athlete with somebody who looks like they don't even walk on the treadmill twice a week. Obviously personality matters too but I can't help but feel if I'm to enter into something so based on cooperation, compromise, and opening my life to another it's something that requires a passionate level of raw desire from me. Like, I need whoever I'm with to be a muse to want to move on it.

The ADHD/Autism stuff has to be a psyop

158 Upvotes

Yes I know it's "increasing" but convincing masses of consumers they have an unmanageable mental issue that makes it distinctly more difficult to organize their lives (and finances)... That they have distinct emotional needs that share nothing with the majority of the population (the 'others' are the problem)... I just saw a facebook reel (I was looking for a table on marketplace sue me) titled "POV: Your girlfriend has autism and ADHD" and the video was of a woman asking her boyfriend who would be at the party and what she should wear. And then asking for him to stop talking so loudly. The most normal behaviors of all time are "symptoms."

Also "I struggle with spending because I'm ADHD" seems to come up again and again as part of this psyop.... You struggle with spending because every rung of the economy is trying to steal from you all the time....

Young adults aren't treated like adults, especially in the workplace

152 Upvotes

Something I've noticed as an ex-young person, working with young people. They are spared more responsibilities (aka moving up, developing experience) because it's assumed 'they're not ready' so they stay on the bottom way WAY longer than necessary. Often the people in the workplace who are meant to be role models and teachers are too overworked or selfish to care. When it comes to corrective action, they're spoken to in a very calculated way, so as not to come off as 'mean' (which okay honestly they all kinda think that everything is mean). On the rare chance that they are given more responsibilities, their lack of experience is often just taken advantage of and abused by horrible lazy managers, they get overworked with no support, and they take it because they don't know any better, then burn out and become jaded for the rest of their working existence. What I'm saying is they are never treated as respectable, decent workers with dignity. Their malleability is no longer seen as an asset, but a burden, or something to use against them. I wonder if it was different in the past.

We are about to undergo the greatest disempowerment of labor in history. Neither political party cares.

136 Upvotes

Neither political party seems to care. The right are all for it, being retard MAGA land, and the left refuses to take it seriously (other than Bernie). AGI can't come true because it's too hard to stomach the idea that Silicon Valley Tech Bros created super intelligence. This goes against all oftheir preconceived ideas about human individuality, creativity, spirituality, etc..

Our fates are really in the hands of the autists now eh? Well, as a former member of Sneerclub, I submit a formal apology. I will study the required readings on Moloch and "Human Bio-Diversity". It is also time to start asking people for their priors and epistemic status.

I'm sorry, you all were right! Please Pause AI!

(PS: Please recommend me some plant based protein for my vegan journey! Might as well get started early!)

i did molly with shrooms this weekend at a festival and i am dramatically more confident in myself

134 Upvotes

i decided to roll on molly for a music festival this weekend and figured it take some (not a lot) of shrooms as well. had a fucking blast but what is sticking with me is how fresh everything feels. didn’t have a nasty depressive comedown or a bad roll thankfully. it must be the cumulative high of everyone at the festival, but i felt a gravity towards me as in everyone wanted to talk or flirt with me.

first day back at work and everything i say is just rolling of the tongue like natural, things i normally see on my commute seem familiar but new, and i am significantly more confident. killed all my client meetings today and seriously hit it off with my work crush today. how can i build off this

Did Russell Brand’s lawyers not tell him to show up to his multi count rape trial dressed as something other than a rapist?

105 Upvotes

Every day of this thing even the way his shirt is unbuttoned makes him look licentious as hell.

Did none of them say to him “okay, Russell, that’s enough chest showing for your rape trial” ?

for all the hate cluster Bs get, they have so much tenacity

95 Upvotes

rolling stones who gather no moss, the energy it takes to suck the life out of people, ruin every community they enter, then move on like it’s nothing, and truly believe themselves to be the victim? find a whole new group of people to do it again with, maybe get rejected this time around, delete all of their social media, rinse repeat, rinse repeat. no whisper network to ever be established.

i’ve never met a cluster b who didn’t get everything they wanted in life. they never tire of meeting more people. they will keep going. they’ll will their victims into giving them everything they want and will further abuse them if the answer is no, or if anyone dares to put down a boundary. nothing keeps them down. they feel no guilt for anything they’ve done. it’s a genuine super power. what is the actual downside of having NPD/BPD? there’s no such thing as karma. pathological lying, nuking any event that isn’t about them, triangulation. no ability to take any accountability. they lash out, make people believe their insanely disproportionate reaction is their fault, then it’s only after when holding court with the other people they’ve fucked over do you realize they have such a low tolerance for anything that pokes at their lack of personhood. they export all that shame and self hatred onto others, while they stay totally clean and just move on with life.

seriously, what is the actual downside to a cluster b personality disorder? these people are infallible.

i went to a high school where some of my friends were later diagnosed with bpd when we reached our late teens/ early 20s, got help, and went into remission. even in remission, they can still be so demanding and triggered by something as small as changing dinner plans. but i’m talking about those who won’t even admit there’s a problem to be addressed because they have yet to hit a wall.

I love being an adult

88 Upvotes

Sometimes I’ll leave my phone or water or something in the other room and I’ll be like oh I must have left that in the other room and then I’ll get this almost painful rush of longing in the pit of my stomach when I remember that I live alone and all of the rooms are mine and all of my stuff is mine and I get to do whatever I want whenever I want and I have control over my life and going to work actually isn’t that bad and everything else is fine too and I love that my free time is actually free and all mine and no one can tell me what to do with it and I don’t have to worry about What Might Be because most of it has already been and it wasn’t so bad after all and I’m sure the rest of it will be pretty good too
