I don’t understand a lot about this conflict but surely there can be no justification for this. Those poor people

This is a great resource, thanks for sharing

Sertraline. It’s helped hugely with depression and anxiety, though I think Covid helped with the latter as well. I struggle to feel anything much these days but it’s much better than feeling low and anxious.

I cancelled Netflix a few months ago and that was my only subscription out of the main ones (I currently have a subscription to Nextup which is a comedy streaming platform but that’s it). I haven’t missed it much as there’s not been anything on there that I’ve been keen to watch. If there ever is I’m sure I can find another way to watch it. I find I am using my free channel streaming apps more though (BBC iPlayer/Channel4, etc).

I would do loads of degrees. History, English, Psychology, Politics, Spanish, etc. Having the brain space to focus on learning would be amazing. I did my masters part time while working full time and it was a nightmare. Glad I did it but I couldn’t do my best as I was bogged down in work stuff.

I would also like to learn more languages. I do a bit of Spanish and Danish when I can but I rarely have the mental energy after work.

Travel too. Maybe write a book.

I still think they’re real.

It’s in pockets of Tumblr as well, feels so dystopian. I’m all for language change but this depersonalising of terms like ‘kill’ is just creepy

That’s a thing?!

How is that relevant?

This is my favourite answer

I can’t say I got that impression from them to be honest. Feels like you have assumed a lot from a couple of comments (though I totally get being jaded after a while of seeing the same kind of thing).

I think this could be a really interesting thing to explore both sides of the argument as I do think you have a point. Just seems like you’re both interpreting it differently in terms of tone (which I guess fits in a way, given your stances)

Since giving waterboarding a go

…I feel like there’s some missing context here but I’m not sure I want to ask

Not just America unfortunately. The UK government did this too, their part should not be forgotten.

Why are you assuming they’re arguing in bad faith?

The age of the book is irrelevant, the philosophical ideas are still worth engaging with, even if you don’t agree with them

Cats definitely wouldn’t

Considering the price of drinks at some pubs it sounds true to me. Not something that one generally does but I can definitely see a teenager trying to get their money back

I mostly use it to buy ebooks, handy for when there’s a sale on

That sounds like a nightmare to be honest. Not something I would dream of using.

Wandering through a field at Glastonbury festival once at 3 in the morning and crossed paths with a portaloo moving of its own accord and dancing. It had fairy lights on it and was playing Johnny Cash’s Ring of Fire.

You often see odd things at Glastonbury but nobody else I was with saw it. Nobody else I spoke to afterwards who went saw it either. I was relatively sober as well.

It was brilliantly surreal.
