It gets worse, it's inherently difficult to study this. There have been attempts to study the effects of microplastics in humans, but every time, those studies have to be canceled, because they can't find a control group.

Somehow, every single one of these entries is better than the last. You think it's peaked, but then you read the next entry on the list.

He IS using a Hexbear, how do you think he posted this?

I've heard that most people are less than 50% accurate in guessing if someone is flirting or not. Which means flipping a coin, heads, they're flirting, tails, they aren't, would be a more accurate model to determine flirting.

I'm a cishet man, and I've noticed that every single person I've had any amount of success with have been some flavor of queer. It's not like I've been intentionally seeking out queer women, and I have been on dates with straight women that went nowhere, but it's only queer people that go anywhere. Not sure why.

Hot take: Guess culture combined with dating and sex IS rape culture.

What even is flirting? When someone says the kinds of conversation that specifically happens during flirting, laughing at jokes, joking, I think "Oh, so how I talk to literally everyone when it's not a serious moment?"

Oh, you anti-struggle session people thinking your way is the only true way. The REAL path towards communism is struggle sessions every day!

 
 

I've been unemployed for almost 6 months now. I wasn't even paid enough while I was working, but now, I've depleted all my savings, my credit card balance is going up, I'm not even sure how much longer I can keep collecting unemployment, I still have absolutely zero job prospects, I'm having a hard time affording anything that gives me genuine enjoyment.

Beyond money, I don't have a good social life. I really only have acquaintances who would all rather be with other people. Me thinking about finding love feels like me thinking about being a billionaire, basically just a fantasy so far from the conditions of my life, it's absurd.

If I finally get a job, what then? I still have to scrounge to financially recover? I'm still alone? What do I even have to live for?

I completely forgot about the existence of Chalkzone until now.

 

Eyes drying up only.

 
 

I also recently learned this fact about the audio that really got to me. After the researchers recorded this, they played it back, then he excitedly flew over, thinking he just heard another ʻōʻō bird.
