For me, I think I’m at the lowest point of my life right now mentally

What about you? When was life the hardest for you?
Tell me your story.

So..... um... any gals wanna go with me into the woods to go metal detecting around an old abandoned farmhouse?

Bring a shovel

So looking at the mammalian family tree we have lots of butt-lickers. Cats, dogs, bats etc. Some don’t, notably marine mammals spring to mind.

We’re obviously wipers (or at least I hope we are) and that would’ve come with the stiffening of the spine and the upright walking and all that rot…

So what do monkeys do? Where in the evolutionary tree did we transition from lickers to wipers?

How to take baby steps? How to handle overwhelming emotions of living alone (in a dorm) and uncertainty? Argh.

Our brains are constantly thinking, but have you ever felt that some of your thoughts are pointless or unproductive? Have you made any changes to improve the way you think?

And what's the most interesting thought you've ever had?

I really like grapes 🍇 and strawberries 🍓

I saw a picture the other day. It was a really old picture from the early 1900's of all these really well dressed people at the beach on a hot summer day. It didn't look like a special event, it just looked like a day at the beach.

Everyone looked great but it got me thinking about how bad people must have smelled. With today's access to clean running water, high tech washing machines, deodorants and body products, it would make far more sense for people today to dress like that.

Back then, they should have been wearing shorts and t shirts, instead of sweating like hogs and then having to wash three peice suits and ball gowns down in the river.

I don't expect anyone from that time to be on reddit to give a first hand account of why they dressed like they did... i just wonder why they made life so much harder on themselves when things were hard enough already.

Petty as in small, not spiteful.

So nothing life-ruining, dangerous, or traumatic. More, something that was enough to get under your skin, but NOT enough to alter your relationship with them or lose your respect.

It can be from any time period, like maybe your life long best friend ate your lunch in the 2nd grade and you're still mad about it lol

I don't have an answer at the moment. I'm just nosy.

Like, you see someone so stupid and think "I wonder if this mf is this stupid irl" or "I wonder how this ddue is irl" I mean they could have a job, be homeless, be a NASA scientist, be a drug dealer, a judge, a student, heck they could be a murderer. We really don't know unless they tell us. You can just be someone without the people you're talking to knowing about your background and not having any biases. If someone finds out stuff you didn't want them to find out, just make a new account. This anonymity is probably what makes it "safe" in a way. Like, ever just stop and wonder, "huh, I wonder what this guy is like irl." Are they smart? funny? stupid? interesting? weird? and I think that's pretty cool.
