You hypothetically showed them.

I’m pretty sure it is hard

Telling someone to change jobs and avoid dating is not the same thing as saying he delayed gratification. The ladder is just a quality of growing away from your childhood.

My question was rhetorical. You still tried to answer my question by making up context just like your posts about OP. This is what I’m saying is pointless. There are more important things in life than retaining your childhood such as providing for yourself and others. I would guess in most cases, growing away from your childhood is done out of necessity. It’s a sacrifice of time people choose because of the consequences of the alternative but you say OP should have made different decisions to prioritize their childhood? Your criticisms are only valid for someone who sacrifices needlessly which doesn’t seem like a common thing.

OP looking back and yearning for their childhood does not mean they did anything wrong in their life path. Growing away from your childhood is very common.

You have no idea if OP is proud of their path and is casually reminiscing or if they believe they should have done something different.

All of your wikihow tier advice is a weirdly specific to a life that we know nothing about. OP has discipline to continually make the same decision to stay on their path instead of getting distracted by selfish instant gratification.

There’s nothing wrong with doing what’s expected of you. At any time I can give up my career and coast at the expense of my stability but I never choose that option. That doesn’t mean I’m not making the decision to continue to work.

If you have an option to keep my free time and financial stability then I’m listening.

Because they made the right choice for the goals they set out to reach. The lack of agency is just a playful way of writing.

It doesn’t stick out from your face nearly as far as the q2. The weight is more central. I’m sure it feels fine.

I’m sorry, what the fuck are you talking about?

Is raw earnings data too biased for you? What point do you think im trying to make?

General Motors Co. booked $9.9 billion in net income last year, down from 2021’s $10 billion despite chronic supply chain woes, rising interest rates and a slowing economy.

GM’s comparatively strong financial performance enabled the Detroit automaker to deliver profit-sharing bonuses of $12,750 to approximately 42,300 hourly employees (total number of employees in 2022 was 167,000) - GM’s highest such profit-sharing payout. The bonuses total $500 million for the year, the company said.

Maybe calm down

I was curious about this kind of idea. Isn’t all reddit content owned by reddit, and isnt pasting their intellectual property onto a different platform not really super legal? (I fully support it)

Being able to extract all of the question/answer threads on reddit to boost the value of lemmy from a search index perspective seemed too good to be true as a solution.

We can’t know. And that’s fine.

Whatever started the physical process that created us is pretty fucking crazy. I bet it’s a simulation.

So many people in this thread were traumatized from church lol. God isn’t inherently a bad or stupid idea… just depends on how you define God.

So artists will find that if they want to play at a large venue, they will need to sign with livenation because the venue has?

And venues sign with livenation because a lot of artists are signed with livenation and they want good artists?

And they don’t really care after they sign because now the requirement to sign with livenation is a burden of whoever isn’t signed with livenation?

And the only person who really loses is the customer?

So why exactly are venues forced to use ticketmaster? I don’t understand. Does everyone involved in the show just get more money when ticketmaster is bleeding customers dry with fees? Are there not other simple payment processors that can be used instead?

When communities aren’t as populated we rely on a more central content feed. Young reddit was the same way. People identified with the site as a whole with advice animal memes and news instead of everyone having their perfect niche subreddit feed that emerged with a huge userbase.

The general feed that we have now is a little immature but that’s how reddit was too. Lemmy or whichever platform succeeds will mature and cater to us eventually but for now it’s kind of like going back in time. It’s weird and fun and definitely good enough. No fucking way I’m being an experiment to some shitheads that don’t respect what reddit is about. It will all be worth it when lemmy develops I think.

Because we have a spine?

Um no https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/theminewars-labor-wars-us/

The pop culture references aren’t interwoven into a story. Everything revolves around the theme decided for an episode, like cryptocurrency or something.

There arent events from the universe or born of characters emotion… it’s just this linear march forward where the writers have x amount of time to cram in jokes surrounding a certain topic.

It’s pretty pathetic. I could write better Futurama.
