He’s not just being polite but he made the conscious decision that this store is the one he wants to support because they were willing to lose revenue in order to help the customer.

I think it points to the character on the left that looks a bit like a character from “Among us”. And they used the available icons to write a name close enough to that (Abong up)

But that’s just a guess…

I…don’t get it. This is an old way to help a child that has something stuck in their throat. I mean, the heimlich maneuver was first described in 1974, so I guess this WAS in fact the best technique at the time. Keeping someone from suffocating is kind of important, and this seems like something you can do fast and easy (at least with a relatively small person).

I think you already gave yourself the answer in your own case:

Because I give zero crap about what other people think of me.

This applies to people that aren’t in your inner circle. You want HER to be in that circle and suddenly it actually does matter what SHE thinks of you. You have little to lose with people you don’t really care about, but everything to lose with people you do care about. It’s an evil social twist that makes everything so complicated. High self-esteem is just the ability to quickly pull yourself up when you fall and the knowledge that you actually CAN do so. It mitigates the risks of “putting yourself out there”.

Well…they 'how’l all the fricken time without being asked!

Not op, but I really liked this video, as it explains quite a bit. It is of course a biased video, but still…

Please tell me there is an orange cat called Närütö as well…

Beautiful cat btw :)

Be honest and just communicate your worries. Don’t ask strangers, ask her. You can tell her the same things you wrote here. That you’re out of the dating game and unsure what’s going on, but that your intentions and wishes haven’t changed and that you just wanted to check, whether the two of you are still on the same page.

Openness and communication is key for every relationship. Besides…the first step into a relationship is dropping the game of “coolness” and letting her see the real you, with all the emotions and insecurities there may be.

You might have misophonia.

Also…I try to imagine kids as little robot machines. They do their thing and they make their sounds like little choo choo trains. This image also underlines that they often just react to things. Input; output. So the focus shifts from the kid to the situation and the surroundings (as does the blame).

Add Youtube to the list…

We are the society and judging other people’s behaviour is what defines morality. Not speaking up about things that are clearly fucked up as the model industry just shifts the whole moral-scale in their favor.

Thank you for your reply and thank you for hiding the spoilers.

I don’t know the anime, sor I don’t get the joke…

What anime is this and what is the joke if there is one?

To me it seems like this change is centered around navigation using a car. Streets are much more prominent, while details in nature are lost. The greens are much more muted and barely recognisable. And they also get lost between the stronger color for roads.

So for navigation I don’t mind it, but for just looking things or orientating myself, I really hate it.

I tried Chatgpt, but got no result. Maybe you could give it a try. It always asked for more context, which I was unable to give…

Many plagues were caused by lack of basic hygiene. Of course I wouldn’t want to miss modern medicine, but living back then with a lot less people around and equipped with todays knowledge would actually be pretty neat.

…but not with my teeth…i would have probably died already if not for modern ways of dealing with tooth-aches…
