Are macbook laptop fans programmed to start spinning faster whenever there is an update to make you think it's "broken" and "something needs to be done" to force you into updating?
Because it ALWAYS does it when there's an update, and it doesn't make sense that it would just randomly start acting up when it was fine before…

Is it common to smile at strangers where you come from?
I was born in a metropolis and moved to a french-speaking medium city so I have never smiled at a stranger in my life. In both cities that would be considered strange and a way of inviting trouble. However I was having a conversation with my therapist where she told me that she works with a lot of american expats whose kids are bullied at school and considered slow and stupid because of the fact that they smile excessively. How is it where you come from?

Did the yotsuba manga ever get translated to french? I'm in the process of learning it and thought it would be best if I could supplement some translated manga and other children's picture books along with my other learning materials to up my reading level. Yotsuba is the first kid's manga that came to mind and I'm pretty sure stuff like One Piece is still beyond my level right now. I'd also like to to know what other manga there are aimed at kids ages, let's say, 4-6 years? Looking at multiple website catalogs under shonen its hard to guage which manga is for actual, literal childen and not preteens. Even the cutesier art styles aren't helping.

People with down syndrome are born with several other health issues besides what you might notice at first sight, they often suffer from hormonal issues such as hypothyroidism, they're more susceptible to diabetes and weight gain with their lowered metabolisms, as well as congenital hypotonia, which means their muscles remain naturally untoned and it can affect speech too. Besides, as they tend to suffer from heart diseases and weakened heart muscles, most doctors advice against any demanding training sessions.
It's not impossible for them to become fit or even muscly, they can hit a gym too but their base health issues will make any training way harder than for most people if not downright dangerous if not supervised correctly

>>2377345>Retracting what's essentially a compliment But saying you look young for your age isn't inherently a compliment. At least, it isn't if you haven't internalized moid messaging. The issue is that people like you and the other uwu I look young posters perceive it as a retracted compliment. I get mistaken for far younger than I am all the time, but at the end of the day, if it truly bothers you, you minimize it and move on. My worst habit is dropping my age in conversations in the workplace to establish a sense of experience since I get anxious about my perceived lack of experience. I'm trying to stop that so I focus less on age. If someone happens to perceive me as an older age than I'm used to (like say, 5-6 years younger and not a whole ass decade), I take that as a win and I sure as hell wouldn't fight it. What's also helped me is gaining weight to fill out my figure (like being a healthy BMI, but retaining a certain bodyfat percentage even though I work out) and my tattoos because at a certain point, you're not going to have a lot of tattoos if you're young (but obviously, anons may not have any or dislike tattoos, so that doesn't work for everyone).

>>2379952Seconding
>>2379965 's answer. A sports bra when exercising is the only time it's actually necessary to prevent saggage. Breasts are "held up" by the Cooper ligaments, which stretch out and degrade with age just like ligaments anywhere else, so in that capacity, sagging is inevitable. Fast, dynamic movements can damage the ligaments, exacerbating the natural deterioration, hence the need to wear a sports bra while working out, running, etc.
My job is very physical, so I wear a sports bra at work. But I rarely wear a bra in my freetime unless I feel it's necessary for an outfit.

People who move with jerky, stiff, or unbalanced steps, asymmetry in walking like limps or uneven strides, unbalanced posture, small steps (which might indicate lack of physical capability or nervousness). Maybe if you're distracted, like looking lost or fumbling with your phone, or just slow movement in general

As for your second question, afaik Judaism is matrilineal, so if your mom is Jewish so are you by birthright.

I honestly think she may be autistic but has a lot of signs of a personality disorder as well. People like Holly but her entire career has been exuding a friendly/approachable persona to the public, on behalf of Playboy. She has a pretty transparent nasty streak and tends to position herself as the
victim, in nearly every situation. She characterizes a lot of events as "bullying" and then later admits she participated just as much as the "aggressor" but refuses to acknowledge her part in that or take accountability. Anons say BPDs lie about having autism, so other than her inability to perceive sarcasm early on in the mansion and doing poorly in social situations at first (but I think anyone would feel out of place coming from Oregon to Hollywood and living in an old man's orgy mansion) I didn't perceive that many signs of her being on the spectrum

It's bizarre that every single pair a try on in a store I can clearly see my panties through, seemingly no matter what color it is. It's driving me insane, surely there must exist white pants that aren't see-through, I mean I've seen men in full white suits before and I couldn't see their ass through it!! Picrel is obviously leggings but I'm talking about thick pants like jeans, I can still often see my panties as clearly as this. Am I supposed to like wear a full set of black/colored leggings under white pants to block out my panties?? Is wanting to wear them "as is" my issue???

Were the 90s genuinely more fun? Especially when it comes to subcultures, it seemed so. Like, growing up, my idea of a fun college life was based around the kind of stereotypical experience back then.
I didn’t live through it but I can’t help but feel like, from what I can gather, the world just feels much different, no? Like, I was looking up about ICP since I heard a few songs I really liked and I had no clue they had been hated for having such a characteristic fanbase. Obviously they seemed kinda crazy kek but I could never imagine a subculture like that emerging today. So dedicated and different. It’s funny, even though it’s the “norm” and expected to be forward thinking nowadays I feel like people stray from the standard much, much less. I’ve considered myself alternative since middle school in the 2010s but I’m starting to think I never really experienced what it’s actually like to be “alternative” truly in the sense. Even my friends that considered themselves emo etc, heck even being a weeb - I feel like even I witnessed that change once it became mainstream instead of peak cringe. Subcultures are kind of just aesthetics now.

I know that a lot of people have a "reawakening" in their late 40s and early 50s though and a lot of career switch ups happen around that time, so after working in a dental office for 15 years you might be ready to never look at dental work again.

>I’m just wondering if it would be more accurate to call it rape or sexual assault, if anything just for future reference on things like this because I genuinely don’t know what counts as rapeIt varies in law from country to country. Some countries define rape strictly as "penis forced into a vagina" so by that definition a man could never be raped even if another man forces his dick into his butt. In other countries it's defined as "anything sexual that is non-consented and forced upon a person" which of course means both the previous examples are rape. I think broadly if any body part (penis, fingers, any item) or object is forced into you with some kind of sexual context (vagina, butt, mouth) most people would call it a form of rape. If you agreed to one sexual thing, like say you agreed to having sex with a guy using his penis, but the "guy" was secretly a tif woman pretending to be a man and she secretly in the dark put on a strap-on dildo to use on you then that would also be rape because you agreed to have sex with a penis, you did not agree to having an object used on you sexually.
If someone forcefully touches your body with their hands (or other body parts) but it doesn't go inside you it likely falls under physical sexual harassment, touching your breasts or on top of your panties for example.

After all, what sane and loving community would react so violently to those trying to spread the word of the lord?

Once men get the "objects" they want they end up becoming bored of it fast and discarding it. That's why you see so many Instagram models and influencers be in relationships where they are constantly getting cheated on. Being pretty will not stop a moid from discarding you unfortunately.

>>2387011That’s not what the image means when it’s used in most contexts.
In the scene, a British spy is pretending to be German. He orders three drinks and raises three fingers the British/American way (index, middle, and ring fingers up) and that’s what gives him away. Germans raise the thumb, index, and middle finger; so the German officer immediately knows the Brit is an imposter.
It’s used as a meme to imply that someone is pretending to be something they’re not, and a little detail is giving them away. Like if someone online is pretending to be American to make a point and says like “well
I’m American and none of my friends in uni ever did blah blah blah”
Americans don’t say uni, they say college.

They exercise their bodies to the point of self harm and embrace the pain. Again my first point about pain releasing neurochemicals.

The pain probably feels good to them after a while judging by how some say it's addictive.

I don’t know if this is more of a philosophical or scientific question, but I believe a stupid one nonetheless since most people can grasp it and I cannot.
How are we separate from our brains? The things that allow us to feel, perceive things, act, create? If we are not our brains, where do we follow morals and values, why listen to it? I was reading into mental health tools and they describe the science behind it, but I still cant understand how someone is not their brain. What are we without it? And people say listen to your heart or spirit but how do you hear it? They say good or bad doesn’t exist, technically, but then if you aren’t your brain, something that can decide what is good and bad to you, can’t you just do whatever carelessly, because your brain is not you?

What's the best way to hand wash clothes with tags that say hand wash only? Should I just put them in the tub with detergent or is there other stuff I have to do?
No. 2389193
>>2389180When I handwash stuff, I put it in a bucket and swish it around using my hands and normal laundry detergent. For stuff like bras, there are special bra specific soaps/detergents you can look into. You won't need as much detergent as usual since it is so few articles of clothing.
Try not to wring your hand wash items, that can strain and warp the fabric. I will gently press the item between my hands over the bucket, and then use a bath towel to press more water out afterwards, then hang dry.
I only just started handwashing my things, so hopefully a more experienced anon can give advice, too.

No. 2390768
>>2390730>could you be friends with a lesbian?I have lesbian friends and family members, with my family members I'm just normal and hug them and such because I'm an affectionate person, with my friends I keep a polite physical distance.
>can you usually tell if someone is bisexual or lesbian? if you were unaware would you rather not be told?I don't notice unless they tell me so, the only bi woman I know makes sure to tell me that's she's bi as much as possible.
>would you prefer to not be in changing rooms with lesbians and/or bisexuals?That's a weird question, they're women, it's not a big deal, plus I'm not going around asking them if I'm their type and shit to feel self-conscious.
>do you treat lesbians the same as straight men, or are there differences? do you treat bisexuals the same or different? how does it differ from other straight women?I'm just polite with lesbians and moids, the bisexual woman I know is just a friend that I'm not too close to, so it's whatever, if anything she ships me with my best friend and we both get annoyed by that but it's whatever as long as she doesn't say anything retarded in front of our family members.
Actually, a friend of mine has a girlfriend and I keep a distance from them so they don't think I'm flirting (which is the right thing to do when you're friends with any couples) but like, they come to my house to hangout, we have sleepovers, they're just another pair of friends.
With my straight friends I hold hands, I cuddle with them while watching the tv or reading, we lean on each other and such.
With moids I don't sit close to them and avoid being close to them in general, specially if they're taller than me.
>would you feel as uncomfortable in a vulnerable situation with a lesbian as you would a man?What do you mean by vulnerable? As in, crying because of the death of someone? I don't mind when I'm around my lesbian friends, I dont cry in front of moids, or in a sense of being hurt physically? I would be wary around moids but I would feel comfortable knowing if a lesbian is around because she would have more empathy towards me.
Like, it's just about having common sense, I make lots of emphasis on not being too physical because I had friend circles that were destroyed in high-school because one of the lesbian girls of the group would think everyone was flirting with her and she would spread rumors about you dating her or being into her, which made people ask you retarded questions, also her girlfriend of the week would ignore you and be rude towards you because she thought you were into her girlfriend, and it made the friend groups get tense in the most obnoxious of ways.

>>2390765if you're not straight, why are you hypothesising upon the reasons straight women don't like being around lesbians? and straight women do see each other in sexual lights, because we live in a society that asks women to do that. but in normal healthy adult friendships between women, regardless of orientation, this usually isn't the dealbreaker you're acting like it is
realistically, the reason a lot of straight women don't like being around lesbians is because they view lesbians as failed women, that's it. and this will change depending on what stage of life you and your peers are at. people are preparing for marriage or kids and, unless you're really on track for that kind of stuff within an ssa relationship, you naturally fall out of the circles (and the same goes for straight-but-perpetually-single women). my experiences navigating adulthood as a lesbian and befriending mostly straight women has been built off navigating that problem alone - but rarely does a friendship in your 20s survive any orientation or gender if the people involved are, i guess, only ever in situations that could make one or the other thing 'omg, maybe they want to fuck me!'

>>2391722More normal than a lot of people would like to admit. Our parents (or the people that raise us) are our "blueprint" for what love looks like. We're often called back to this in odd ways later in life. That's why it's important to be raised in a household where your parents are kind to one another and in a healthy and functional relationship, because it'll enable you to have better romantic relationships in your adult life by recalling what you experienced by proxy as a child. This sort of attraction is very unconscious, most people won't even realize it and they'll get uncomfortable when you discuss it. This is also why Freud is clowned on so much for discussing this factor; people are sometimes ashamed of it, so they want to hide that shame and they do so by attacking the one that brought it to their attention.
I recall a study done in Sweden some time ago where they invited fathers and daughters into the lab. The researchers divided the two and ranked the fathers based on the amount of chest hair they had. They then showed pictures of men to the daughters and asked them to rank how attractive they were. The daughters of hairy fathers ranked hairy men more attractive than hairless men, and then daughters of hairless men ranked hairless men as more attractive than hairy men.
Another more example: one of my exes used to go crazy for the smell of my favorite perfume, it was one of the things that initially drew him to me. When I went to meet his parents for the first time, his mother instantly recognized the perfume as the one she had worn in her son's early childhood.
Nobody is looking at their mother or father and thinking, "now
this is who I want to be in a relationship with:" instead, this attraction is wholly unconscious and relies on schemata formed in the early childhood, it is founded on the intense love felt between parents and child and it's a reflection of the profundity of that bond. For this reason, it's more to do with feelings rather than appearance. So, in the case of my ex-boyfriend, it wasn't so much that he actually
liked the smell of my perfume, it was that when he smelled it there was an unconscious part of him that remembered smelling that scent as a young boy when his mother would comfort him, and those latent feelings of comfort, security, and familiarity is what drew him back to the scent.

>>2392311>How do you then explain it when people are attracted to the exact opposite of what their parents are?The opposite of who your parents are is still who your parents are. It's a very psychoanalytic concept.
>Could that have turned me off completely from dating?Experiencing a turbulent relationship by proxy as a child, especially a parental relationship, can be very damaging to the psyche. It will leave you with certain wounds that may make pursuing romantic relationships of your own as an adult much more difficult. These wounds will fester until you heal them, and you heal them through direct confrontation and acceptance which can be done through self-work and guided psychotherapy. If you haven't already, you should read

>Isn't the whole attachment theory thing debunked or pseudoscience or something?No. Attachment styles are a real measurable psychological phenomenon. There is a lot of literature regarding attachment styles that you can read about in appropriate journals. The book I mentioned earlier is a great introduction to understanding attachment styles: how they are formed in infancy, how they can be changed in adulthood, and how they impact our lives. I recommend that book to everyone because it's very illuminating. Attachment styles and attachment theory at large is clinical psychology, it's been the dominant approach to understanding social development for decades now.
When we discuss psychology, it's important to remember that there is "popular psychology" and "clinical psychology." Popular psychology is a grift, it's a scam, it's not related to science, or theory, or research. It's important to understand the distinction between the two so that you avoid being tricked, or confused.
No. 2392592
>>2392585I disagree with you. Love languages were invented by a Christian life-coach for his self-help book.

I do agree with you though that attachment theory tends to be misunderstood, simplified, and then weaponized by a certain type of people. These people are often the same ones that endorse irrelevant pop. psych. buzzwords and disseminate their disinformation through social media platforms.

I think when you stop expecting people to understand you on a deep personal level and decide to settle for a more basic level, you're suddenly not lonely anymore.
>>2393113Whoa, anon, you just kind of spoke my developing theory out loud. I mostly agree with your answer. I for one didn't bond with people because I thought most people were "dumber" than me. And didn't "get" me. It's hard to explain but when I let go of that, life got so much easier.

Those thoughts aren't true to reality, and if you get an awkward vibe from someone chances are in that moment they are feeling just as insecure as you are, probably wondering what
they are doing strangely. I got a little brave a while back and started bringing up when I felt weird and asked the other person what they thought and every single time the other person said, no no no you're fine I thought I was being weird!

Serious mental issues are another story, and I don't really know how to discuss that anecdotally because I'd be talking about something I don't actually know about.

>>2393105Idk, i am torn because i am autistic and have a schizoid like personality that makes me predisposition to being alone. I can't blame the internet for this, i am naturally like this. I've never made a single irl friend organically, in school teachers would force me to hang out with people because they were trying to teach me that i need social skills, but all i got from it was that being alone = bad. Fast forward to now, I've been isolating myself for almost a decade because i feel too ashamed to try and make friends and just presume i will always be seen as gross. I've also had horrible experiences with people who were awful to me because unfortunately i am autistic, so people find me off putting and weird, but i am not self aware enough to fix this or truly understand what i look like in their eyes, which led to me becoming paranoid and feeling like being alone forever is the best way to avoid being hurt by people. A part of me honestly doesn't give a shit about having no friends, but also there are certain activities and things i'd like to do that require me to interact with others. I've tried looking for social skills training, but almost all of it is for children and i got diagnosed with autism as an adult because my parents thought it would go away when I became an adult. At the least, i've made some good acquaintances through the friend finder thread. I just think you don't understand how narrow the pool of potential friends is for a lot of people. I've had to experience a lot of disrespect from people who could sense my desperate energy to seem normal and fit in or people just be callously horrible to me and say nasty things behind my back, i just don't have much faith in humanity to feel the need to want to interact with people for no reason.

I ended up falling in with the wrong people online (older moids) and drifted away from my irl friends. I got away from the scrotes and spent several years in almost complete solitude, not really talking to anyone. This period damaged my social skills badly, I think. But to your point I think I am less "lonely" and more self-obsessed, I'm kind of just stagnating.
>>2393144I 100% agree with you. It's like I have a voice in my head telling me "don't talk to them they will think you're a weird freak, because you are one" and it is a self-fulfilling prophecy kek, now I'm reclusive as hell. Part of the issue is that the generation I am in (zoomer as you can probably tell) seems so anti-social, like everyone is irony-poisoned. I think this might just be another cope though, like I am just assuming people are anti-social because I am not talking to them, just judging based off of what I see online. Kind of a tangent but do any other nonnas feel like the internet broke their brain? It's like this version of reality where you can lurk or say shit completely consequence-free, and does not reflect the actual real reality happening at all.

>>2393153I get that exact same voice! Our brains are hardwired to avoid pain, even if that pain is emotional. So failure, rejection, the brain takes the shortest and least painful path in the moment. Meeting new people or having a conversation can be awkward and challenging sometimes, so the brain says "no lets not do that" thinking its doing you both a favour. You have to work against that feeling and sort of retrain yourself. It's good to start with something simple like giving people genuine compliments. If you see someone dressed cute, let them know. That's as far as the interaction has to go, and it will feel good. And that good feeling will build up and who knows one of those compliments could be returned, or turn into a conversation, and maybe a new friend! I'm an older millennial so I can't say much to the zoomer experience, but I have been online since I was 11 and it's definitely had a strong impact on my own self isolation, mostly due to being addicted to being online.

I have a makeup-related question.

But if that's the case, why do people with cool toned skin like picrel look good with peach blush?
