Do you believe in extraterrestrial life, and if so, what do you believe it looks like?
I would honestly expect extraterrestrials to resemble Earth animals overall. We evolved into the bodies we’ve got now because they’re pretty convenient for our environment. Humans have two legs because it allows for a roomier birth canal, to accommodate those big bloated brainy heads. And we have a digestive tract to accommodate different kinds of… Continue reading Do you believe in extraterrestrial life, and if so, what do you believe it looks like?

Starting a Feminine box for work
Lovely idea. I used to do this and had a unisex box as we all shared one toilet regardless of differences. I would also keep a range of products that are masculine and feminine and found my colleges would be leaving their own stuff to share after a while. Pads, cologne, perfume, tampons, the travel… Continue reading Starting a Feminine box for work
What’s the most bizarre item you’ve found in a thrift store or second-hand shop?
I’m honestly convinced these thrift YouTubers fake most of it. Such garbage at the ones in my area. Even when they open. It’s like the employees take anything of value before it hits the shelves.
What’s the story of your shitty therapist?
She wanted to talk about Jesus all the time. I should have known what was up when she scheduled all of our sessions in a church. I got a new therapist and things got better.

UN experts warn of ‘catastrophic consequences’ if Rohingya refugee rations are cut
The Human Rights Council-appointed experts called for donors worldwide to give generously to the UN World Food Programme (WFP) Rohingya Refugee Response fund. “The planned rations reductions are the devastating consequence of the international community’s failure to provide funding for initiatives that address the fundamental needs of Rohingya refugees”, the two Special Rapporteurs said in a statement. “Rations… Continue reading UN experts warn of ‘catastrophic consequences’ if Rohingya refugee rations are cut

What do you remember about having substitute teachers while you were in school?
They would write their name on the chalkboard and teach us how to pronounce it. Then it would all be pretty cool until it was time for lunch and they didn’t know the exact procedure. I always felt a little sympathy for them when the whole class tried to explain it at the same time… Continue reading What do you remember about having substitute teachers while you were in school?
Which movie genre needs to go away?
I used to love all the superhero movies, but the past couple of years really show they should have ended with Endgame, maybe the third Spider-man.
Crazy to snapping up old Airports?
Yeah, it’s such a cheap option for multi room or wireless Audio, for what I spent on two Sonos speakers (which I kinda regret, but that’s another story) I could have a nice setup in every room. And good speakers last, just because how we connect to them changes doesn’t make them lose sound quality.… Continue reading Crazy to snapping up old Airports?

What made you change your political opinions?
As I got older, I would debate more and more as a centrist. I believed (and still do often) that there is always a lot of grey area when it comes to most issues. However, far left leaning people (women most often) would either scream at me, tell me I’m horrible, claim I was ignorant… Continue reading What made you change your political opinions?
Apple is making it easier for registered developers to install iOS betas, but eliminating profile sharing
Honestly Apple (and most big companies) shouldn’t rely on users for free software testing. App developers are on betas to test new APIs and to see if their apps actually work. Apple needs to invest more in, in-house software testing, their software quality has been really lacking.

What does everyone seem to love, but you hate?
Is Pokemon hentai? Yugi-oh? Digimon? That’s the problem is that you are lumping an entire medium into one genre and that genre don’t even cover even a small fraction of the entirety of the medium. That’s like saying you hate all TV shows because there’s reality TV.
Apple Exploring Viability of Foldable Devices With Touch-Sensitive Chassis
I can appreciate how patient and slow Apple is with pursuing these fad-like technologies. Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. It’s a lesson Samsung and others have never bothered to learn.

The hardware alone without a clear user… Continue reading Apple Exploring Viability of Foldable Devices With Touch-Sensitive Chassis

Which animal you think god gave the least effort to create?
Sloths. Instead of evolving them to hold better onto trees, he evolved them to survive accidentally falling off them. Like, come on God. That is the laziest fix ever.
What do people need to stop sleeping on today?
WWIII. Do you think all these chemical fires are random? All these objects being shot down? The two prophets at the Wailing Wall in Israel right now? The time has come. Make your priorities right.
What if AI became real? Should we be amazed at such an accomplishment, or panic at the possibility of a real life Skynet or Ultron?
I think it’s going to cheapen the human experience. Art, music, political speeches, advertisements, best man toasts, even death notification’s will all one day be AI generated. Something that can’t even begin to grasp the colossal significance of the task will be creating the communicative medium.
If you got a job making fortune cookies, what would the first one say?

Goldman Sachs is losing billions on Apple Card, but it ‘remains committed’.
I like my Apple Card for the installments that are interest free. I have a high credit limit that putting an installment on there doesn’t mess anything up.

If I had to do it over, I’d probably just get an Amex card for… Continue reading Goldman Sachs is losing billions on Apple Card, but it ‘remains committed’.
What’s up with all the “slob-shaming” on Reddit? Should living messy be considered a lifestyle choice and a part of individual freedom?
Messy is one thing. Slob kind of strongly implies actually dirty or unhygienic, and egregiously lazy about cleaning. Leaving some papers around doesn’t make you a slob. Not washing your clothes or dishes or leaving dog shit on your floor does. I’m not into shaming people, but that is something I’d not want in a… Continue reading What’s up with all the “slob-shaming” on Reddit?

Would you ever start doing your hobby as a job? Why or why not? Do you think it would ruin the enjoyment?
Yes. I would. It may ruin some of the enjoyment, sure. But at least I’d have a job that I hold a passion for. So even if that passion diminishes, I’ll likely be good at the job and enjoy aspects of it. Better than needing to work a job with no passion from the start,… Continue reading Would you ever start doing your hobby as a job? Why or why not? Do you think it would ruin the enjoyment?
Why Aren’t Paternity Tests Done Immediately After Birth?
Because that would be wasteful of resources, invasive to people’s privacy who didn’t request one, spread the false notion that the majority of paternities are questionable and just generally a bit weird. If you want a paternity test get one.
What’s the most memorable moment you’ve had while gaming with friends?
Playing GTA sa multiplayer and he had this police skin for his character and we were trying to steal a police car, I got in and then he was dragged out, like a scuffle happened and after th confusion we drove off. And I then realised the NPC was driving me around not him.
How do you find peace with the inability to change the past?
Positive Nihilism. On a long enough timeline, nothing on the scale of any given individual objectively matters. You, me, and everyone else just aren’t important enough to be bothered with. That goes both ways, though. Sure, people will almost instantly forget our daily triumphs, but they are just as likely to forget our failures. You… Continue reading How do you find peace with the inability to change the past?
What is your favorite paradox and why?
The intolerance one. To build a tolerant society accepting of all people (to an extent), you have to be extremely intolerant of those who aren’t. It makes perfect sense, it’s just neat to think about at length
What is the worst freak accident you’ve ever heard of?
I drove an ATV into an electric fence that I didn’t see. It caught me on the neck and luckily it snapped and broke, or else I probably wouldn’t have a head right now. I had marks on my neck for weeks that looked like I tried to hang myself.
How can drinking from straws affect swallowing posture and face development?

What’s the craziest thing salvia made you see?
My salvia experience was surprisingly lame. Every time, I just kept getting sucked into my bed, like a never ending fractal that I could not escape from, try as I might.

People who watch a lot of gore, what’s the the absolute worst video you’ve seen?
I don’t watch a lot of gore, but there was this one video I saw on instagram a while back where a man accidentally fell on train tracks as a train went by and his top half spun around a couple times while his bottom half stayed still. Still gives me nightmares.
What time period from the past would you like to visit? Why?

If an individual is released from prison after the person who accused them of rape confesses/found by court that the accusation was false, should the accuser face the same legal consequences or serve the same sentence the accused get for making a false accusation?
I think it should be worse. It wasn’t just jail time, it was a permanent stain in someone’s life. Emotional trauma, loss of reputation, legal expenses, loss of job (I guess) and consequential unemployability….and loss of credibility for all the people who were actually victim of abuse. The punishment has to be fair.
What was your first idea on how babies were born?
I knew they came from the mother somehow but I didn’t know how sex worked. I ended up seeing “mating” by watching our chickens fuck on our farm, and my dad explained fertilization but left out the sex part. Then shortly later in middle school they explained it in Sex Ed.

Parents of Reddit who had a child with a partner they dislike- how did you manage to deal with them for your child? Did things work out between you?

When will people realize we’re never going to get rid of Guns in the U.S.?
No one thinks that we’re going to rid the US of guns; there are too many and there are Constitutional protections.

What if schools showed quarterly grades everyday live instead of just the next quarter?
My school had something like this I think. An app that showed what your grade was as teachers graded assignments. It even calculated your current semester grade along side the quarterly ones (assuming you were in the second half of the semester). Idk if that made things more stressful or less stressful tbh.

Have you ever fell in love, if not, why?
I have never fallen in love before, and I think that the reason for this is that I am a very rational and pragmatic person.

you see a floating face in your hallway/doorframe/window what do you do?
I would be pretty freaked out! It’s like something out of a horror movie. I’d probably back away slowly, then run and grab a weapon just in case. Then, I’d take a deep breath and look closer to see if the face is actually real or if it’s just my imagination playing tricks on me.
Which is your favourite sitcom of all time?
I Love Lucy; maybe not the best sitcom of all time, but it ran the four-minute mile and set the bar for every show after it. It also pioneered the three-camera setup, which until recently reigned supreme, as well as syndication, shooting on film instead of kinescopes, and a live audience.
Was this recent Super Bowl loss the most heartbroken defeat in Philadelphia sports history? Why?
I don’t know how any reasonable Philly fan can be disappointed. They were supposed to be dogshit nothing in the NFC least and they were incredible. Jalen Hurts is that dude, guy took it to the wire against the best player in the league. And I say all that as a Cowboys fan

It made me realize how fragile our lives… Continue reading For those who have seen it, did Samuel Beckett’s Endgame make you feel better or worse about your existence, and why?

What are things that movies/TV get completely wrong about your profession or hobbies?
I’m a musician – and too many movies/TV show present the business like it’s a bloodsport full of competition.

It really only ever came up, or comes up, when the site results in a hug of death for some other site.

What’s it’s like dating a gay person while being straight?
I’m sorry, what? But also, I feel like the only non-joke-y explanation for this scenario is that the straight person is bisexual or fluid enough to date a gay person but is mostly attracted to the opposite gender enough to comfortably consider themselves straight.

Why do you think these recent reboots of movies and TV shows suck nowadays?
Yes, and nostalgia could actually hurt the reboot. We often inaccurately remember our favorite films from childhood, so when we watch the remake though adult eyes, it’s just bad, because we are comparing it to an idealized version from our past.

Men of Reddit, what is the one thing you would never tell your partner (or, hypothetical partner for those alone at the moment)?
If I had someone in my life, I think I’d probably keep how bad my mental health really is from them. If they really got close to me, they’d find out. But they wouldn’t, because I wouldn’t let that happen. And because of that, they would leave me. Then it wouldn’t matter.

What are signs that someone is not really your friend?
They don’t bring up anything to you first. They always go behind your back to discuss it with someone else when you don’t get to say your side of things, and then bring it up after they talk ill about you with other people.
Identical twins of Reddit, how does it feel not having to look into a mirror to check how you look? On a serious note, does it feel weird to be able to see yourself twice? And do you feel differently looking at the mirror?
I always wondered, because you’re able to look at yourself in a mirror, and by looking at somebody else, who looks like you as well. It just seems so foreign to me, it would be so cool though.

What’s the best way to realistically overcome a fear of heights?
I wonder if you can. Fear of heights isn’t exactly an irrational fear that can be “logic’d” away. It’s a pretty rational, legit fear because of real consequence. There is some degree of risk to any height so I think it might be hard to overcome. That’s my totally uneducated guess.

Has TikTok enhanced your life, made it worse or just hasn’t had an impact? Why?
I can relate to some extent but on another front, do you think it has allowed for some inspirational and down to earth people emerge in support of other people?

What do you think is the most interesting thing about our world today?

Veterans of Reddit/Internet: What’s the biggest change you have seen in reddit and/or internet communities?
It seems the veteran was looked down on for a while, while employers solely focused on minority and LGBT communities.

Mainly because the only reason we make the news is terrible things… Continue reading Veterans of Reddit/Internet: What’s the biggest change you have seen in reddit and/or internet communities?

Hello there… I am a harmless (nonathletic) transgender women and I have a question for cis gender women only. What if we (transwomen) were still allowed to compete and play in women’s competitive sports only we would just forfeit our victory and scores. Let me explain…
…this would both acknowledge that, yes, transgender women, in particular, can sometimes have an unfair physical advantage, while in the same instant, it would acknowledge that there is a place for transgender women amongst their cis-gender counterparts in fun, and fair play.

Which celebrity personally gives you the creeps and why?
Oh man, the celebrity that gives me the creeps is definitely Justin Bieber. His music just feels so manufactured and soulless.

If you’re talking about ways to meet people and a man says “you could also do sports. But that doesn’t seem to be your thing” looking you up and down, how should this be taken?
I think this depends on the context and tone of the comment. If it was said in a condescending way or with an intent to belittle you, then it should be taken as rude and dismissive.

Why is Sign Up/Sign In With Apple significantly less popular than Sign Up/Sign In with Google?
This basically answers it. From a privacy standpoint it’s genius, especially when you use a privaterelay email address. Only the developer you signed up with can send emails to it so even if they sold your email address, the third party advertiser can’t reach you. The result is that apps and services begrudgingly offer SIWA… Continue reading Why is Sign Up/Sign In With Apple significantly less popular than Sign Up/Sign In with Google?

I think the trans character in Hogwarts Legacy was included to represent an important part of our society.

Personally I think grass is about as useless and wasteful as any plants could ever be, especially if you live in a state where water seems to be scarce all the time like in California.

But to answer… Continue reading American redditors, how do you feel about grass mowing enforced by law?

What would be the best reward system and why ?

Exclusive: iPhone reverse wireless charging development continues after Apple missed target
I can see this feature being useful to charge a pair of AirPods in a pinch, but that’s it. That’s probably how Apple would market the feature. Charging anything else just seems impractical.

I hope I’m wrong through. OLED… Continue reading Samsung and LG Preparing for Next-Generation iPad Pro With OLED Display

how do you deal with watching someone you love self destruct?
I often refer to this quote. Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny.

The chicken crossed the road because it wanted to get to the other side. It was tired of being stuck in one place, and wanted to explore what else life had to offer.

Read and understand it first, then ask my creator if they’d lay off and let me take over. It’d only be fair–they’re not in my world, I am.

Gurman: Apple Considering New High-End iPhone Alongside Pro and Pro Max
I can’t see higher end either, but maybe they could do something “lifestyle-specific” that people in a specific niche would buy + those that just like going for the niche & expensive option.
