Ah, I think you might be describing a different thing than I was thinking of, generally its my friends poking fun and making remarks like “oh my god, you’re so baby” (it’s true, I am 😔) not assholes. I have limited exposure to people I don’t like currently, which I’m very grateful for

I don’t know if it’d be possible for someone to think I’m not a softie, but I do kinda understand what you mean, even if it’s nit exactly the same for me 😅

Fair honestly, I’m more or less in the same boat 😅

I do, it’s always nice getting to say good morning to folks as I’m on my way to bed. And sometimes I end up skipping sleep in order to do something that requires I be awake during normal hours (like doctor’s appointments, my friends wedding) and its always nice to hang out with folks on those days ☺️

I’m grateful my friends also often stay up later than they normally would to hang out, and I often try to wake early for social time :)

I realize now my wording was unclear 😅. The former. I go to bed around 9am-12pm right now, and wake up around 7pm-9pm.

I have a very weird schedule, but I do sleep. It’s isolating because my daytime seldom overlaps that of others, if I never slept at all I’d have TONS of time to spend with folks

I have a sleep disorder so I’m always awake through the night. For me I kinda appreciate that it makes it easier to stop scrolling, cause there’s not anything new showing up and I’ve already seen the posts for the day :)

I can see how it’d be lonely though. Perhaps I’m used to it cause my sleep disorder is isolating whether I’m using lemmy or not

I hope you have a lovely day today :)

Sounds a like a combination of fear of failure and anxiety around social settings. Failure should be, and usually is, a part of learning, which is something I’m working on internalizing for myself 😅 but it sounds like you’re also putting a lot of pressure on yourself not to make any mistakes, which is unrealistic and also sets you up for immediate failure if you get into your own head about it.

Generally the answer to any fear related issues is exposure. If that idea is horrifying then its especially important, and you’ll need to start small. But letting yourself experience the source of fear enough times for your anxiety to go up, observe the way it comes back down and that you’re okay, and you start to feel safer in that kind of experience

But if you do too much at once you’ll often make the problem worse. If you’ve got good friends you can ask, maybe share what you’re having a hard time with, and see if y’all can learn origami together or something with people you consider safe. Feel out the anxiety, and when you fail, notice that you’re stjll okay :)

Investigating fear of failure and exposure therapy online may yeild helpful that really helps with perspective and practical approaches to dealing with what you’re facing

Sending love and hugs, thats a crap experience

That’s crummy place to find oneself, when dance had been your escape from that headspace

I’m sending love, and I hope you get to find that place where you can get out of your head for a while again soon, whatever form it may take :)

That sucks, I’m really sorry man :(

Dude thats dope!

I think there’s kind of a difference between growing as a person, emotionally, intellectually, interpersonally, etc, and growing as a species and building as much as we can as big as possible. Those aren’t the same thing, and one of them comes with consequences for the world and humanity where the other does not…

It seems odd to me to lump them together

Just because you don’t find yourself needing a given port doesn’t mean no one should have one.

My USB c port broke from being cycled too many times with a stupid headphone dongle, and now I can’t charge it with a cable OR use my god damn headphones. I like my headphones, its obnoxious that I can’t just plug them into the device I want to listen to. I get it’s not relevant to you but it is relevant to many other people which is why so many people are still bitching about it years after almost every manufacturer has removed the port. Every single day its frustrating I don’t have one. Its frustrating when my friends want to play music in my car and they don’t have one.

I got my headphones for Christmas and I LOVE THEM, but I can’t even use them with my phone :(

Looks excellent!

I post stuff on lemmy via my mastodon account so I don’t have to deal with image hosting on my lemmy instance, so its not quite that simple. You’re not wrong, but they do interact

Thats not a take on the subject I’d seen before. Thanks for sharing your thoughts

I had no idea he negotiated to get them the things they wanted afterwards, thank you for sharing that. I was completely unaware

I love him 🥰

Lemon juice or vinegar is a key ingredient of mayo. Its supposed to have a bit of a tang to it. I feel like the fattiness kinda hides the acidity somewhat though

Really love the colors! Absolutely beautiful
