Below I will copy and paste a journal entry I wrote on October 24, 2024 about a very unsettling dream I had. I’m not sure if there is any correlation but a month after I had this dream my life went to ****. I want to start by saying, I do believe, to an extent, in the paranormal. To some degree I am a spiritual person myself with what I feel like are Intuitive abilities. But I still don’t know what to make of this dream. So I ask everyone who is spiritual in any aspect whether you’re a spiritual guider, a witch, or even a someone who believes in the paranormal I would very much like your opinion on this. To this day, this I am still unsettled by the dream I had. “The dream starts o...

Most guys think attraction is about genetics or money. Spent months diving deep into evolutionary psychology research, podcasts, books from relationship experts, and honestly, that's bullshit. Yeah, looks matter. But charisma? Presence? Self-respect? That's what actually makes someone magnetic. I see so many dudes with decent lives who radiate zero appeal because they're stuck in patterns they don't even realize exist. The thing is, being attractive isn't some genetic lottery, it's learnable skills mixed with mindset shifts. And no, I'm not selling you some alpha male course. Here's what actually moves the needle: **1. Stop seeking validation from wo...

I’ve been reflecting on Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of taste and habitus and how it manifests in contemporary luxury culture, particularly in the context of increased access to cultural institutions and social media-driven aspiration. I wrote the reflections below to explore whether taste has truly been democratized, or whether hierarchy persists in more symbolic forms. I’m very open to critique, alternative frameworks, or recommended readings. # Taste as an Elitist Medium I have recently come to observe a strong correlation between culture, taste, and elitism. This reflection emerged after someone pointed out that classical art, whether paintings, sculpture, or music, carries an overt ...

Third ingredient is Potassium Phosphate, yet there's no potassium in the product? How does that work? There's roughly 900mg of Sodium Citrate, based on the amount of sodium. There would need to be less than 4mg of Potassium Phosphate to be at 0mg.

Unlike some authors who include detailed information about when stories take place, Christie’s generally more vague. I know some people have suggested that this gives a timeless feeling — and probably makes it more convenient for adaptations to shift settings (like how the Poirot TV show moved later stories to the 1930s).  Unless it’s for an obviously historical work like Death Comes As The End, I think it’s reasonable to assume that she set a given story or novel in, or maybe slightly before, the original publication date. (Usually it took a year or less, from when she first started writing to when the book appeared in stores.) But on re-reads, I’ve been looking for clues about...

Alright Reddit, buckle up, because I'm about to spill the beans on how my grand entrepreneurial adventure almost ended with me crying into a bowl of instant noodles. Seriously, for anyone thinking of starting their own thing, hear me out. I was fresh out of college, armed with a degree I wasn't really using, and a burning desire to 'be my own boss.' My brilliant idea? Custom-designed hoodies. I envisioned quirky graphics, super comfy fabric, and a brand that screamed 'you get me.' Naive? Absolutely. Excited? Through the roof. I poured my meager savings into a basic screen-printing kit and a ton of blank hoodies. My 'office' was half my tiny apartment ...

I’ve honestly debated about writing about this, mainly out of fear of retaliation, but I think not speaking on it at all just isn’t sitting well with me, in exactly a month I’ve ended up feeling “less then” about myself, starting from the beginning, I couldn’t be more excited to join this company, they’re Chicago based and my interview was conducted by two strong yet so gracious woman, where I got to express and compare that what they were looking for are exactly the things that I am glad to be doing, the position is simple a maintenance job with some janitorial services , for those who know me fixings things and making someone’s life a lot easier by helping out with what I c...

**SPOILER Post Game Theory** ***This post is spoiler-heavy and will reveal game events that you probably don't want to know until you've finished My Time at Portia at least once.*** For my second playthrough, I had my Builder romance and marry Aadit. I knew how things would turn out, so I was playing "for the drama." Afterward, I'm convinced Aadit is NOT the Rogue Knight (RK). Since the RK presents as male, I'll use he/him in this post when necessary. My faith in Aadit's innocence notwithstanding, there are several clues that he IS the RK: **1) Hidden game files.** Diggers and delvers have discovered that the sword the RK leaves behind has the f...

Hey everyone! I’ve been working on Hydrofy for a while now and just pushed a pretty big update that I’m really excited about. For those who don’t know, it’s an iOS app for managing hydroponic systems, tracking plants, and keeping logs without relying on scattered notes or spreadsheets. This update focused heavily on making the AI Assistant actually useful in day-to-day growing, not just a generic chatbot. AI Assistant with actual context You can now ask questions about your specific setup and it knows your systems, plants, and recent logs. Let’s say you’re running an NFT system with lettuce and basil. You’ve been logging pH and EC every few days. One week your lettuce sta...

Over the past few weeks, I’ve seen a lot of folks asking about experiences with DCBS or pre-ordering in general. Between recent publisher drama and my own DCBS order arriving this weekend, I thought I’d put together an explainer on how this process works. I’m not an expert, just someone who’s learned through experience after getting back into comics this past year and wanted to give back to this community as you've all been very helpful. If I’ve missed anything or if a retailer/user wants to chime in with corrections, please do! The goal is just to help the community navigate the "chess game" of buying books. # The Reality of the Hobby To the uninitiated, buying a...

This is my first time being in a wedding party so I'm wondering if this is a normal occurrence. My friend (26F) is getting married, and has 4 bridesmaids. None of us were asked to be a bridesmaid, but rather we found out through the wedding party section of the e-invite (even the maid of honor). We are covering all of her expenses for her bachelorette ($400 per person + $400 of her share split between the four of us), we are doing our own hair and makeup the day of, and are paying for our own bridesmaid dresses ($200). We are all additionally planning on giving her a cash wedding gift of $140-$200 per person the day of the wedding. The dresses may end up costing even more as we are le...

Feminism. A topic that has been following us for decades. But do people really know what it is actually about? No, I don’t think so. Women are looked at stupidly by men when they dress a little more revealing. They are attacked in public transportation by men who see them as walking objects of desire. Going outside alone after 4 p.m. is dangerous for a woman, because she could possibly be followed by a man. Has our society already reached a point where women have to fear the other gender? Men are increasingly turning into animals that only feel the need for physical contact and sex. He has to provide for the family and bring money home. He is the one everyone has to listen ...

Hey everyone, I’m a solo founder from India, and for the last 4 months I’ve been building something I personally needed. It’s called GrowUp AI — a fully AI-driven self-improvement platform focused on discipline, appearance optimization, and long-term structured growth. I didn’t build this to create another “motivation app.” I built it because I kept facing the same problems repeatedly. 🚨 **Problems I Noticed** Lookmaxxing apps give ratings — but don’t guide structured improvement. No real system for tracking daily progress. Bad habits like ****, excessive scrolling, dopamine overload — no competitive correction system. No personalized guidance for style (dress...

Making borrowing more expensive means people borrow less. Borrowing is what is responsible for most money creation so slowing down borrowing slows down money creation and ultimately inflation. >We generally aim for low and stable but slightly positive inflation so what we see is really infl...

I tried the new Steady Mode while walking around store (with the phone attached to the table still). S26 has this Horizon Lock thing. Tilt the phone and the video stays level. It’s great. Probably useful for action shots or getting less confusing videos from my parents.

Look, I spent years thinking confidence was some mysterious trait certain guys were just born with. Turns out, I was dead wrong. After diving deep into behavioral psychology research, evolutionary biology studies, and interviewing guys who genuinely transformed themselves, I realized something: attractiveness isn't about your jawline or bank account. It's about specific, learnable behaviors that signal value. And yeah, before you roll your eyes, this isn't generic "just be yourself" garbage. This is what actually works, backed by real science and field-tested by guys who went from background characters to main characters in their own lives. The truth? Most of us are...

I'm mapping out little 'tech kits' for my bags and travel drawer, and realizing I'm not sure which type to use for each. For emergency bags and anything store in a car, lithium all the way...But what about my daily satchel or carry-on suitcase? This includes 18650, AA and AAA. I don't get to pick the battery types for some of these tools, so sadly I can't standardize. On one hand, that lithium will absolutely be charged and ready within a decade. On the other, the economic anxiety of 'do I use a lithium for this' and then deciding what to do with the cell afterwards if it's partially depleted. For NIMH cells, practically no cost per use, less s...

I need some serious advice regarding my downstairs neighbors. My husband and I were finally able to save up enough money to move into a bigger apartment and had a, what we thought, was an amazing opportunity for us and our kids. It is bigger than the place we had, but wasn’t too expensive. While we were still in the process of moving out & into the new place, there was times we would just decide to stay the night at the new place since it got too late. One day around 4-5 am, I woke up to the downstairs neighbors blasting music. We thought it was a one off, since they probably assumed no one was in yet.  Well fast forward, we have been in the new place for less than a full month a...
