Off Topic / eyetwitching
« on: May 20, 2019, 11:07:13 AM »
hey guys, like many other ppl i used to get eyetwitches when sleepdeprived or stressed, it happened super rarely and wouldn't realize it most of the time.
however throughout May Ive been getting chronic eyetwitches that happen any time I'm stressed, it seems to already happen from the slightest stressful stimuli (like talking to a crowd or having to correct yourself, or even something like dropping your phone). its annoying but what is even worse is that people can tell im (slightly) stressed due to this, even if its just mundane things and I'm worried it's going to mess with my job applications or when im meeting ppl.
anyone familiar with this stuff? i already drink tons of water and even take extra vitamins. the only possibility might be because im consistently below recommend daily calorie intake but ive been like that forever
edit/sidenote: i dont take any medication or w/e on the side that could cause sideeffects like this

Off Topic / do the personality test v1,000,000
« on: March 19, 2019, 05:05:58 PM »
its been a good while let's have a look 👀 https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test
i'm still ENFJ (Extraversion, Intuition, Feeling, Judgement)! the only progress i have made over the years i've been taking this test is that i turned from INFJ (introvert) to ENFJ (extrovert). an interesting development. did you know most of these results have a subreddit and a wikipedia page? there have also been people that try to match which personalities fit with eachother!
tumblr loves these things and here are some funny things you can compare yourself to:

Off Topic / a discussion about reddit and outrage culture
« on: March 14, 2019, 04:17:47 AM »
ive been on reddit for about 7 years now, and roughly around 2016 (stressing that this isnt about politics, reddit and politics is a whole different and more frustrating topic but at least its blockable) i seemed to have noticed a trend in outrage culture. Tons of subreddits about people making fun of people, people hating other people, people wishing death upon other people. Mentally ill people, poor people, differently cultured people, a lot of them are victim to this. Let me mention quickly I used to reddit for the stories on NoSleep or LetsNotMeet or AskReddit, but those have deteriorated heavily maybe because of the same reasons or maybe because i grew up. These days I use it for gaming subreddits, but even there outrage culture is so prevalent it completely ruins the experience or value of discussion. In a million places there is only one opinion accepted and it is what the 'echo chamber' or 'hive-mind' of the subreddit thinks. the rule of only downvoting irrelevant discussion is the most disrespected rule i have seen on any social media to the point where it actually isnt really a rule at all.
maybe its because my blocklist looks like this so all the filler bullstuff repost funny images arent in my feed and instead i get users who, because they can yell really loudly and get upvoted for it, believe their opinion holds enough merit that they can be incredibly whiny and are 101% in the right. or subreddits that are like i said completely based on People shaming/bullying/harassing People. There may be anti-witchhunting rules but how well does that work and even then the whole concept behind it is terrible and a creepy example of an audience that really wants to be judge jury and executioner
so many posts on reddit are outrage and posts that try really hard to make you mad and succeed at it plenty for the general Reddit audience, and im not even talking about the comment section yet, in there you will find So Many People being 20x worse than the original post was. It reminds me of that study that proved anger is the best emotion to spread an idea with. WHat do you think, have you had the same experience?
edit: im going to post some threads that give examples or discuss this as i find them,
here is one about /r/games, a subreddit i used to prefer for its discussion based style https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/b0naye/so_this_subreddit_allows_20_separate_threads_for/
