About 48% of young women who had smartphones by 5 or 6 years old reported having severe suicidal thoughts, compared to 28% of females who had smartphones by 13 or older.
In young men, 31% of those who had smartphones by 5 or 6 years old reported having severe suicidal thoughts and 20% of males who had smartphones by 13 or older reported having severe suicidal thoughts.
Damn, smart phones need to be a controlled substance.
“Surely You’re Joking” was a really entertaining book. Feynman was an interesting character.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Man, I put a good 20 hours into that game and the gameplay loop just wasn’t for me.
Even if I don’t have time to play them, I still find myself buying them.
I think about this post at least once a week when I shower
Kinda sounds like a waste of time :/
I can usually tell if I have an affinity for something with very time invested.
I was at a Meyers-Briggs workshop one time (company-mandated) and the facilitator said something that made a lot of sense to me: “At any given time, your personality is about 33% who you want to be, about 33% who the people around you want you to be, and about 33% who you really are”.
I think we adapt based on our context.
For me this is less about “being yourself” and more about not overly bending on your values to please others.
We are communal beings, and sometimes that means you have to act in certain ways to get along with the group. However, you should not have to compromise on the things that are most important to you in order to get along with the group. If you do constantly compromise, you’ll probably be liked, but you may never find YOUR group and always feel a bit like an outsider.
(If your friends like to say “that’s fire” And “yeet” and you don’t, that probably shouldn’t be a dealbreaker. If your friend group always expects you to drink when you’re hanging out and you don’t like to drink, then it’s probably a sign the fit isn’t perfect. Try not drinking around them and see if they accept you or else if they push you out and create room for you to find a different group. It’s scary to do, but results in deeper relationships in the long run.)
Is this your first time going through Remake? It’s one of my favorite modern games (mostly for the nostalgia, but I also really enjoyed the combat).
Loops
Is it bad that I agree? Eff TikTok
Ya know, I do love the idea of having a convenient little keyboard that’s connected to the tv. Put that bad boy right next to the couch and hook a chrome cast up to it and it’d be golden. Really cool idea!
Unfortunately, I am not cool enough to have a Pi 500+.
Trying to think through a use case for this… just for tinkering around?
lol, I read this before I watched the trailer and it’s spot on
Love some Minecraft. It’s just digital Legos
Looks dope!
I would go on long nighttime walks on the nature trails near my home.
I have experienced this, and I chase this feeling every day
Oh dang! I’m actually not playing right now either, but I always get the itch to go back to it around the new year.
If you haven’t tried it, the Ragnarok Origin Mobile game is surprisingly good. It’s not exactly the same, but it hit just the right level of nostalgia that I was looking for.
And /grats on the kiddo!
