Bits?
Bits?
My eyes are getting worse over time, so I get new glasses every four or five years. When I switch glasses, I suddenly realise that trees have individual leaves, they’re not just a green blob. Anything over ~1.5 meters away is blurry without glasses. I can see fine for most things but I can’t read or tell the time or see fine lines at those distances
Day After Tomorrow was about two days before its time
Aston Martin F1 team principal Mike Krack has entered the chat
Also, wasn’t there a Mike Hunt in the British government a few years back?
Kind of a weird question IMO. I don’t even think animal lives are worth the same as animal lives. Is a single deer’s life the same as a single ant’s life?
I consider myself to be kind and thoughtful towards people and animals – I’ll save snails or worms that I find while gardening, but I also will kill mosquitos that are inside my house, and move spiders outside where they will potentially die.
This isn’t even getting into “special” animals like pets
Imagine turning down $800 an hour because you don’t want to work in a warehouse /s
Purple, it’s nice
I’ve actually lent completely in the other direction. I used to be more like you described, and I’d get annoyed and frustrated with myself when I started losing interest, or I’d get anxious wondering what I would do next. Now, I try to get every bit of enjoyment while my hobbies are still interesting to me, knowing I’ll be moving on soon.
You can probably still be emotionally attached to someone, even if they’re not around anymore?
I can be, and I would like to be, but it never seems to work out that way… Part of my question is to work out what other people do and what I’m doing wrong.
Yes, that sounds like me. I’ve only really had it happen twice where people have come back into my life, but one of them is now my best friend again after I didn’t see or talk to them for years. The other example moved away for about eight years and although we were close (before or after) we did just carry on the same relationship we had before.
Thanks ;)
I am ND, so part of this is trying to diagnose what I’m doing wrong and part of it is trying to understand what everyone else is doing haha
It’s true that I don’t seem to need company in the same way that lots of people do, but I don’t think that’s the issue here. I have good friendships with people in person, but can’t seem to keep them up online. I think I’m just not as comfortable / good at talking over text for the more in-depth and interesting conversations that are worth having friends for
That’s really cool! I wanted to start playing D&D online with the friend that prompted this question, but she doesn’t really have the time (or I’m not important enough to make time for, I guess) :/
Kinda sucks, but that’s what happens sometimes
Thanks for the input. I do have closer friendships in person, but once we move apart (geographically) it just sort of… fades. Based on these replies, I think I’m just not very good at talking over text
It’s so you don’t have to bend down, can be helpful for less mobile people with slip-on shoes
Before you start playing, set an alarm on your phone for when you will stop. When the alarm goes off, do not say “I’ll just finish X before I stop” else you won’t stop. Just save the game and turn it off. You could also set another alarm five minutes before to give you time to finish what you’re doing, if you want.

What if the word “warm” had more than one meaning, and wasn’t always referring to the temperature?
I’m scared of / uncomfortable with spiders, so they’re not allowed inside
