This is like someone trying to write in Disco Elysium's style but having none of the sauce that makes the writing good

Iran rolls worst ceasefire ever, asked to leave the Resistance

I appreciate you reaching out to us even if you think we're insane communists (which is true). That's what solidarity is all about

I had sleep paralysis for the first time ever this morning and it was not fun. I didn't know what was happening, I kept hallucinating that I struggled out of bed looking for help, but I was really weak and couldn't keep my eyes open. Then I would realize I was hallucinating, find myself back in bed and the hallucinations would start again. It went on for ages,.like at least fifteen minutes, and it was really scary. Also at one point I hallucinated that I was in work and about to collapse.

I finally woke up, checked my alarm and then went straight back to sleep

I'm officially one week free of weed! First of all, I want to say a big thank you to @moonlake@hexbear.net for this self improvement thread, which has been something I look forward to every week to track my progress. This has really been a great resource for me and the support has been great.

So a week ago today I threw out my weed, grinder, pipe, lighter, everything. Since then not being high has been very easy, to be honest. I've had a few moments where I thought it would be nice to smoke some weed, but never have I regretted throwing my stuff away. I feel like I have so much more free time now to write and read and draw and spend with my friend. When I was getting high, I would just count all of that time as void, as if it was time I was spending sleeping or commuting. I couldn't be productive at all, all I could do was eat loads and watch House MD.

Other than that, I worked out three times this week, went bouldering with a friend once, and ate pretty healthily all around. I've been at work 5 days this week, chasing that bag, getting money for myself to help my parents if I can. I've been writing my fantasy novel a bit, I'm up to 15,000 words with no intention of stopping and I'm finally figuring out some of the minutae of the plot and map. As of this week I have officially lost 5 whole kilograms which I'm very proud of. Overall I feel this was a very good week for me.

Based. Guess I better fill my car with diesel after work today

My parents were de facto Catholic by merit of living in a Catholic part of Ireland, but neither of them really believed. My dad never went to church, my mom took me when I was young but I think that was just so I wouldn't feel left out of the only community thing outside of school.

I told them I was an atheist when I was 12 and they didn't care at all, mostly used that as an excuse to never have to go to church again. Now it seems bizarre to me when people are religious. I honestly can't understand why you would believe one religion over another other than it being the religion you were raised with.

I went to my grandma's funeral in a Catholic church last year and it was so, so strange. All the praying and kneeling and stuff that I had forgotten about. I read out a prayer and it felt like just reading out a parable or something, not really religious, apart from the end when I had to say "this is the word of the Lord".

Do you build muscle quicker with less overall body mass?

If you told 2005 me that 2025 me would be pro Iran, I would have said "goo goo gaga"

Does anyone know how the chuds are responding to Trump bombing Iran? It seemed like a lot of them genuinely didn't want war with Iran

I remember a friend told me how she thought it was so interesting how Paul used his Messiah status to accomplish his goals without believing it, which confused me because I fully assumed that Paul ended up believing that he was the Messiah.

I think overall I liked Dune 2 a lot, but the new Harkonnen villain who's name I forget ended up just aura farming, bombing one place and then got killed by Paul. Also the worms were a lot less intimidating

It seems that all the working on my appearance has paid off because someone called me hot today! That's the first time I've ever had that happen.

Problem is I have literally no idea how to flirt so I kinda just smiled and walked away. What the fuck are you supposed to do when that happens
