You know how you occasionally see articles about the male loneliness epidemic? Hi, that's me. Haven't spent more than a week around people in person in close to 5 years despite livingright next to a big city, struggling with depression and social anxiety, starved for physical and emotional affection but can't bring myself to do anything about it, yeah. Snuggled and slept with an ace friend overnight on a couch at a big get together and it sent me into a massive depressive spiral! You know this meme?

Yeah that's me. I'm definitely not an incel, I'm self aware and not entitled, the only thing holding me back is me and my stupid fucking brain. There's hope, antidepressants and therapy have been helping a lot. I just feel like the posterchild for the struggling, lonely but not "redpill nutjob" guys out there

Using sync personally, I know I know FOSS and whatnot but it's not like it's a big corporate product and it's what I'm used to

??? RTS' require crackhead adhd attention splitting to be good at, not planning and concentration

By their own logic zoomers should be taking to them like fish to water

Tbh I don't get these kind of memes, as far as I remember picard never really gives a deadline, just asks for it as quick as possible, with geordi busting his ass every time to try to get it done, regardless of whether or not it's actually possible.

And, in those situations, I really don't think picard is being unreasonable. When your options are "do the tech thing" or "have long odds at pulling something else off", asking for the tech thing as quickly as possible sounds pretty reasonable to me

Idk I'm overthinking a meme

Tie me to a bed, tape a bag over my head, and snuggle with me as I tremble and twitch and tell me it's ok 👀

I remember being new to programming and wondering that and then getting introduced to arrays. Matrixes blew my mind

Basically, time loop of the enterprise being destroyed. Tractor beam fails to stop the danger, eventually riker decompresses the shuttle bay which shunts the enterprise out of the way and breaks the loop

I'm already having the mental health crisis, would be nice to have the immersive VR porn to go with it tbh. People in this thread are mostly talking about incels but, like, there's many men with horrible social issues who are self aware. I don't have a relationship, I think I would be a terrible partner and me being single is for the best. I still am lonely sometimes, but accepting it and moving on helps a lot. It still would be nice to have something like this because I would be able to have some companionship without having to be in someone else's life.

Before anyone tells me to go to therapy, I had a few sessions and then my therapist went on long term sick leave and I don't think I have the strength to try again. It hurts less to just accept and live with my problems.

That's really setting off my "this is a well hidden mobile home " sense

The person you're responding to isn't putting OP down. Getting help from a professional isn't a weakness, and based on what OP said, it could be something that really helps them.
