It seems like this only happens on the Internet. Lots of my IRL friends are vegan, vegetarian, or reduce their meat consumption. We all get along.

It's cool, but buying produce from your neighbors is also cool. Strong communities thrive together

The drug might suck. But I think continuing research on non opioid pain killers is probably a good thing.

Honestly, I don't care. I don't even look at that stuff, I just type in the bar thing what I want. Mozilla has to fund the project somehow.

A friend of mine has trouble with that. Women's shoes are usually the right length, but they are skinner than men's shoes

You should snowboard! I've got size 12 and I'm always getting toe and heel drag when I carve too deep. But you would never need to worry about that. Fucking super power.

Don't shaggy mane grow on manure substrate? They are probably coming up around dog poo or your leach field/septic tank. Delicious mushroom either way!

I always thought that it meant: just because someone has authority over one subject, doesn't mean they have it for another. Just because Einstein is good at math and physics doesn't mean his quotes about philosophy and religion hold any authority.

Why is it hard to find people that aren't shitty? I'm still recovering from learning Neil gaiman was an abuser

I've been reading "the dispossessed" by Ursula k le guin, and I'm becoming increasingly interested in anarchy. Where should I look for more information on it?

I'm not yet 30 and I think it's good applicable advice. I think you can actually practice a lot of these skills by making friends. The difference between romantic and platonic isn't that big.

So I think the question could be refined a little. Eye contact helps build connection between people, but it's not the only piece of the puzzle. Maybe a better question is "'How do I communicate more empathetically?"

There's another question; "How do I let someone know I'm interested?" This question is related to the first in that trying to get close to another person (being vulnerable with each other) and communicating your feelings is how you let someone know your interested.

TLDR: get to know them and tell them you're interested. If they say they're not interested you can probably still be friends since you already got to know each other. Empathy and humility/vulnerability are key in building relationships.

Meh Dayzie or Caleb, I don't use deodorant and I do a bunch of exercise. Exercise then shower, and I have a smell, but it doesn't smell bad. Most people just smell like people unless they aren't taking care of themselves.

That's incredible that they lasted that long! I think teaching does something to boots that just destroys them. I wish I got 32 pro deals, they're expensive but I like them more than Burton boots

I need this kind of I ever have to climb or down climb a slide. Some boots have a little knuckle on the back for them. Feeling like I should have gotten ice climbing ones now though.

Thank you for turning my shitty sleep deprived joke into something that contributed to the conversation, you're a real one.

Is it true that no one hates the French quite like the French?

Is this ADHD or just the human experience? Because I can pay attention to things fine and I'm pretty mellow most of the time. But I feel all of these emotions pretty regularly. I also work with lots of people with ADHD and have lived with people with severe ADHD, and it feels like my experience is different than theirs.

Is any of this related to depression and anxiety, because I've got those too.

Yeah sorry that's what I meant, long day at work. no sympathy for the people on death row, either way they should not be allowed back into normal society.
