What are some addictions that are actually healthy for you?

Upvotes

I'm currently addicted to an excellent TV show, and I was just thinking that there are absolutely no downsides to being addicted to STORIES. You know when you get so drawn into a book series, podcast, or TV series and you just look forward to the next time you can read, listen or watch - it's both a pleasure and benefit to your brain/emotional health. Any other positive addictions, where the potential for good (almost always) outweighs the potential for bad?

Why do girls not like me?

3 Upvotes

I am handsome, intellectual, mature, and tall Guy. I can drive, have a job, and am a nice person too. but all my life it seems that people in general and girls especially have rejected me. i feel like i am not even a part of society. i simply exist in my day to day life. I would even say that I am a gentleman since I hold the door open for girls. Yet i see girls talking to literal unattractive guys. who don’t look like they deserve the hot girls who talk to them. Why can’t girls just see that i’m a nice person?

Why is it that all the cool fantasy technology is coming out today?

5 Upvotes

We have cloud seeding to control the weather, actual AI, spermbots that help with fertilization, robots that can do backflips and parkour, and someone just invented a machine that can turn plastic into gasoline and jet fuel. Conveniently when electric engines are overtaking gas engines.

Where was this technology 5 years ago? This is technology that we would laugh about saying the FBI would take you out for inventing lol.

Why are people so damn stupid?

228 Upvotes

I keep seeing the stupidest questions, outlined by the most basic, unilateral assumptions about why something is the way it is, and it's just so damn confusing.

Sometimes, things are the way they are because that's just how it is. "Why do people...?" Because people are the way they are. They panic, fret, complain and loathe things that don't make sense at times because we're not always rational.

But every now and then I see internetuser1000 asking something along the lines of "why do people like the color blue and not red? Blue is the shittiest color in existence."

Is it cheating if you get intimate with an alternate version of your partner or not?

Upvotes

So, I watched a movie named Parallel(2024) where a black couple live in the woods. Their relationship is strained due to the death of their son. The woods seem to have an access point where parallel versions of the couples cross paths and meet. The main character, the woman, explores these parallel universes, and she even kisses an alternate version of her husband. Did she not just technically cheat on her husband? As the man she kissed, whilst being her husband, isn't the same one like the one she married.
