No relationship talk here . I ain't got one
Same here. I'm talking about..
A slippery slope fallacy (SSF), in logic, critical thinking, political rhetoric, and caselaw, is a fallacious argument in which a party asserts that a relatively small first step leads to a chain of related events culminating in some significant (usually negative) effect. The core of the slippery slope argument is that a specific decision under ...
The throne? Everyone has an independent throne reserved for them.
Reminds me of...
Ahh, I see.
As Bonaparte supposedly said to Ney, "The throne? Do you know what the throne is, Ney? The throne... is just an overdecorated piece of furniture. It's what's behind the throne that counts.
My hopes, my brains, my ambitions, my desires, my hope, my imagination. And above all, my will."
Nah, Its on the person who decorate the thorne counts, furniture isn't power , ther people holding the chair are.
You're just reiterating the same thing.
What's behind the thorne supposed be
Exactly.
I'm leaving !
I'm out, too.
Yea
💀so we have “serious chat” too huh?
Yeah, seemingly so.
💀sooo we can expose our secrets here too right?
Depends on choice.
well..
Theres a lot more
hehebboiiii
Hey Guys hows life. Can you provide with resources or techniques for learning vocabulary. I actually can't keep my vocabulary active because some vocabulary is attached to particular topic so there is no need to use them in that case what should I do?
Use flashcards (anki)
Yep I heard about that but not payed much attention is it really worth to try?
Personally it is, but you won't know if it's effective for you until you try
And I have a problem with picking up words when I speak even if knew this word before
Agree then I will try thanks)
Honestly if a word is super confined to a specific niche or if it's extremely rare and archaic I wouldn't worry too much about remembering it
Just read often and write often
It happens, but if you forget words too often it means you lack practice
Or like you aren't practicing enough
Got u
I'm preparing for IELTS so I practice speaking on test topics and there was a situations when I forgot word at particular topic and these time I don't know How to express my idea
Do you practice with other people or on your own?
Not really I mostly practise on my own
Oh, I think it's good to practice speaking with others, especially with native speakers, because they will give you a quick feedback
I'm thinking about my pronunciation when I speak because I have problems with pronouncing r sound since my childhood that's why it makes my speech not understandable sometimes
What problems? Do you have dyslalia or
I think so
Ryrhotacism
I don't actually know how it's called but mostly people say Ryrhotacism
Rhotacism, got it
yeah
ye
It's not entirely true, but the questions make assumptions about your personality type.
i think imfp
But something might change
hbu?
sameee 😁
hey man i need to leanr when to use going to or present continues can u learn me i have test
can u help
you can use "going to" for certain things that you will do in the future and present continues is just now that's the main difference
HUH
so i say i am going to my grandma on saturday
yep correct sentence
did i use going to or present continues
because i used like both lol
present continues ofc
wait can u give 1 and i have to say
if you use going to sentence would be like
"i am going to go to my grandma on saturday"
Im not sure but it should bee
yes
and i am going to sleep with friends is going to
yess
wait confused
if i say i am going to see a flight show friday evening
is that right
yes
but you should use going to if you sure that you will do it
thats wrong
dude ur trying to learn me wrong shit
that's why i m saying im not sure but I learned that going to is for future
"Going to" is a grammatical structure used to express future intentions or plans. It is often used to indicate that an action is planned, expected, or likely to happen in the near future.
For example:
"I am going to study for my exam tonight."
"She is going to visit her friend tomorrow."
"They are going to have a meeting in the afternoon."
In these sentences, "going to" is used to convey that the actions (studying, visiting, having a meeting) are planned or scheduled to occur in the future.
chatgpt's response
Hey?
yeahe this is correct
proud of myself thanks)
so if you are not sure if you are going to do something
we add i am "probably " going to do something
I am probably going to drive my car
Who needs a hug?
yeahh
one little thing, yo ushould instead say i am going to go to my grandma's house
add that s there
with the apostrophe
the same thing here, you don't say this is my friend number
it is my friend's number
yeepp my bad Actually I don't pay much attention to grammar when I write or speak I get used to it
knew it
Excuse me does anyone need a free hug
nah bro we're fine thanks
😅 😅
Thanks you too
Why such a hurry
Wont you teach me a@dusky jacinth thing or two
And informally, some of them also omit the "house" to make the sentence like this "I am going to go to my Grandma's". But this omission stays valid only in cases where such PLACES are mentioned.
true
"Unbelievers" would be more suitable.
@ornate siren hi what do you do for
a living
Why, nothing at all!
Are you still a student
Yes, so it would seem.
What are you doing right now
Studying.
Are i bothering you
Not really, go on.
How old are you
About 17.
@ornate siren have you watched any movie that came out in 2023
are you from jerussalem ?

00:00 - France tried to ban long dresses since 2012!
02:46 - France's stances against religion through history
04:46 - France fears more Muslims than Islam
06:13 - "Secularism" targets a specific ethnicity
07:45 - Why France is obsessed with North Africans
10:12 - Secularism and Islamophobia serve a specific politicial purpose
12:38 - How ordina...
I don't think one should claim that he's all for freedom of speech and clothing and bans stuff at the same time
Just embrace the fact that you can't practice freedom like you claim you do
that's the only clothing that bothers me: "Irony"
On the other hand each important place should have its own clothing code or uniform
And if there's a huge argument about it give those kind of people a place where they can study while preserving the things they consider dear to them, if you want them to contribute to the country.
Islamophobia is very natural for France 🥲It is really shameful and even ridiculous to see this in a secular and democratic country.
I believe every phenomenon has a reason but sometimes the reactions are a lot exagerated
right.
You may be right, but isn't this an attitude that contradicts the principle of freedom of belief in your so-called democratic country, which people take as an example?
I agree, they put on a facade ig
Every individual has the right to practice his/her belief freely, no matter what
there you said it, France has some rules for job settings. no one should wear something that reveals their religion, to conform to the principle of 'neutrality'.
they extended that in schools and universities.
to be more fair at school/univ they should ban people from wearing accessories or whatever, other than the islamic abaya, for example the cross chains etc.
To be fairly fair with every religion involved.
The headscarf is not a symbol, it is not actually the same as the pilgrimage, it is something that Islam commands Muslim women, so we see it as an order like Muslims praying and fasting.What is being done is against the principle of freedom of belief, and everyone has the right to freely practice their own beliefs.
yes but on an individual level or with their family not at school or work where people are gathered for other common purposes i guess..
it's all about context
you gotta understand that abaya isn't Mandatory but hijab is (headscarf) and modest clothing, ig the girl wanna practice her relegion correctly
yes but it identifies muslims, she can wear humble clothes other than abaya
you are seeing one side of the coin, you are basically putting those girls into an ultimatume giving up their relegion or their school life
I'm talking about the headscarf not abaya
I think the country can provdie more solutions than that
there's alot of catholic school all around the world
even in france
islam doesn't not equal abaya, it is part of it. i don't tell them to not dress up like that i'm just saying the alternative, keep it neutral
I just said i'm not talking about abaya xD
here 👌🏾
some public, state jobs in france force you to remove the scarf (ex bank and its related services, third parties)
if they are a country of freedom of speech and relegion they'd ve dn that
well i'm giving a round statement then
you are contradicting things here, do all you want outside of work and school bcz it must be neutral, read it as you wish
LGBTQ entered the chat
don't they include that in their schools now?
they can put rules but it comes down to the person to decide to conform to them or leave; It is harsh but :/
why don't you keep that outside school too?
says who? don't judge me based on that
what is it?
it's not harsh it's a loss for them, you have to understand that some girls can't give up somethings, and the country will lose them
who judged you?
no comment!
u said lgb..
don't incriminate yourself about stuff I said I'm speaking in general
yeah and?
they allow gay ?
i didn't include them in my thinking process
isn't it a sort of idology?
that you shouldn't bring to school?
especially kids
whts abaya long black clothes or a hijab style with a face covering?
I mixed them mb
I'm speaking about headscarf
idk really
yea mee2
hiijab is long robe thing
lol
i have a big statement on that case that i'm not gonna share in details. i always try to understand them but down to my core, there is just two cases : male/female for human beings.
the law of nature.
i don't want my future kids, for example to be asked at school about their gender (like is it F, M, or X), which is obvious by nature. so out of question for me.
it depends on the settings
That’s not a good explanation tho
if you think wearing a headscarf will cause problems and issue, think about the issues you'll get from pushing people into an ultimatum
feel free to correct me I'm not expect on women clothing
you shouldn't call yourself a country of freedom of speech if you got a huge islamophobia like that
just admit ur shortcomings :3
Friends, my old account is called - @thorny steeple blocked. I created a new one.
Damn it, I don't know the reason for my ban.

Hello
Sup
I've been longing to discuss, say, the basics of propositional logic with someone like @craggy sphinx these days.
Yes.
Like due to different things
Clarify what are u Talking about
Religion
Or physical
People are becoming lazy weak coward
Aha
Anyways, like the relationship between conjuctions and inclusive disjunctions, the latter of which is contrary to everyday logic.
I think because nowadays we have lots of facilities and we use technology for lots of works
We don't walk really much and we use cars
Being all day with phones ..No excercising no work all time screen in our eyes
Don't h know how people used to be back then
No phones
All day work so strong
Anyone up for truth-tables? No, I guess. I'll just join your conversation.
In those days, people were busy staying alive.
Yaa exactly they fought and survived for us to born
I told ya when there is lots of facilities ppl get lazy
Mind have got occupied due to different stuff
With the advent of technology and science starting with the Scientific Revolution in the 15th century, the Enlightenment in the 17th, and the Food and Industrial Revolutions in the 18th, the development of advanced and direct, mechanical methods of food production increased along with the leisure time of the populace.
There are so much better things u can do without phones .. workout..study .... learning new skills .. self defence emotional control
Ya exactly
The Industrial Revolution greatly decreased the amount of people working in factories and mechanized many processes.
These phones are a disaster for our health and eyes especially.. and they also costs our most of the time .. leaving out no time for things we need to do
Yaa people are all day laying on the couch.. eating and using phones .. without any health fitness having a considerable amount of fat .. that's ruining their health... people are consuming too much of the sugar which is very toxic if exceeds the limit and causes diffirent diseases like diabetes..skin problems throat etc
Though it engendered turmoil at first, especially regarding the workers' ire due loss of payment and employment (like the Luddite Revolt), the powers compensated by appointing more and more programmers for more and more machines and paying them. This induced the people to indulge in other jobs suitable for the Machine Era, including helping develop new technology, which could be done indirectly (through plans and ideas) and this, in turn, increased the leisure time.
And with more leisure, arose more problems, mental and bodily, as you've been saying.
Ya exactly the job workers are being replaced by machines .. so the jobs people have are being taken away .. as a result they have nothing to do ..so people are att homes sitting all day along ..
I wish we could travel back to the old times, where people enjoyed simple times. Alexander's era. Where you could prove your real valour in the battlefield, and not by studying tirelessly to develop new technology and increase the leisure time of people even more.
I wish
They fought diffirent wars and were struggling everyday to be alive that was so much adventurous...
Talk to ya later
And green technology would be another thing. The most populous country of all, India, is still far from being environment-friendly.
We live 😎
We love 🥰
We lie ☹️
How to talk to babies?
Approach them with a smile, don't try to touch it immediately, first make sure it's comfortable around you. Making funny faces and voices might catch their attention
You're weirdly professional at this
Are you a kidnapper bro
Imitate every sound they make, every single one of their goo-goos and ga-gas, all before them so that they see you.
Speak using real words and sentences in real speech. Read, point at pictures and say the words as you point. They are association the word sound with the images. Babies are absorbing all the words and sounds and images before they have the ability to make the sounds. After about a year they will start to develop the ability to start speaking, and all that vocabulary they have been listening to and watching while you read and showed them things, will start to be used.
No. Just make sounds.
👶💃
You do that. Waste their early years with gigi gaga
Their early years are bound to be vocally wasted with gigis and gagas anyway, so why not take the time to cooperate with them?
When they become able to speak and articulate words, only then do you talk with them, that too in broken speech.
My kids were speaking words at 11 months, because they had real words to say.
That's good...
Eye contact
Touch them in a way that will comfort them rather than harming them even a bit since their body is fragile
Help them touch you to understand who you are, since they are curious creatures they don't rely only on their eyes
Babies are easily influenced by whatever gesture you do, They laugh or cry or gets scared of'em easily, Try being friendly and less loud.
Guys what's the difference between phone number and mobile/cell phone number lol
Because i'm filling out the form and declaration I need to take with me
phone number
mobile phone number
Usually it's the area code that differentiates a land line phone from a cell/mobile phone number.
Thank you
Obligation free advice 🧜♀️
Absolutely agree they absorb all the words we say and all the sounds we make and by the time they start talking by using them and it shows that how important the absorbing is I believe
guys Which country do you most want to visit?
France
Hi, Nice to meet ya.
I am 18 years old this year. i just start work and my mother wants me to become first man of work, i mean, best one. so she want me try harder and harder.
But i don't wanna become best. i just wanna happy man. Am i wrong?
Depends on the situation, but sure.
I am so curious why do i have to become best....
Vietnam
too busy for travelling tho
Makkah and madina... Saudi 
awww sameeeee I've been there before but ten years ago 😭😭
That's good... I will go in future inshAllah....and travel diffirent countries as well
I took out my passport but it will be a little difficult to travel 🥲 I want to visit neighboring countries first
That's good for you
awww ameeennnnnn🥺🥰🥰
Thanks ...
Which countries u have visited
Hi
You don’t have to be the best but have to be the best version of yourself
Agree with @toxic belfry
I want to visit the earth

I haven't visited any
Not much
ahaha sure queen 🥰😁
just Saudi Arabia
add poland to your bucket list of "to see"
will not regret this
yeaaa, I really want it
I was dreaming of this for Erasmus
if you wanna eat the cookies which Copernicus ate in his childhood, you can visit Toruń town, they have the original ones same as in his times
Poland is affordable for inexpensive sightseeing and has truly fascinating architecture.
sureeee! I saw that they have really delicious flavors.
yes, i mean it is not the cheapest but it is rather cheap compared to what germany or france would charge
Yes, I think so too, and also in Greece 😍
I heard that most people who go to France get Paris syndrome. Our university professor often gives advice to visit other countries, so I want to make a map.
France, Germany, Italy, Sweden
you seem to be into european countries a lot
Actually, I'm curious about the Middle Eastern countries and Asia is the whole world. lol
what is paris syndrome
you can google it
have you had any thoughts about vietnam, for instance?
It's a feeling, or I don't know how to define it, that comes from people who travel to Paris but are not satisfied with it and do not find it as fascinating as they imagined.
I just know it has an interesting cuisine, and also the Vietnam war, the things that are made, and the people are always warm and friendly,I don't know much about travel destinations, or what kind of culture they have. I'm curious about Indonesia Vietnam and the Philippines 🥲
ah I see, makes sense, for me it was probably vietnamese music that got me interested, i also found out about massage culture in vietnam (cuz europe doesnt really have it right), and the language is very cool not gonna lie, very melodic
also a lot of very nice landscapes scattered around the country, i really never thought about how many there might be until i researched a bit (like imperial city and shrines in Hue, but there is way more of course)
Yes, I seriously agree about their language, it's very melodic 😂😂 it's nice to see someone who thinks the same as me, for example, look at this sentence "việt nam sống lâu" long live vietnam sounds like nursery rhymes
wow interesting
kinda intimidating knowing that there are actually 6 tones and not four as in mandarin, but, still nice
for me it also is intriguing cuz vietnam has an extremely wide coastal area, ive never even seen sea in real life
wow whr are you from if you don't mind
poland, we have the baltic sea shore, but i have never been there
i never had time
wow cool

@thorny steeple Hanane ?
sorry?
I'm angry 
Are you HANANE ?
hiiii
happy, i guess
actually, i need a job, so im sad
something between happiness and sadness kakakakakkaa
what kinda job you re looking for

Nothing good.. Why are you not talking.. Wbu
nahh
KKKKKKKK high five
@snow parcel why people struggling with depression and anxiety more nowadays in your opinion?
my sister is sleeping by my side
Got you...
Are you Brazilian?
kkkkk Ru Brasilian??
yeaaa, are u?
yessss
legalllllll
hihihihihih
which country is illegal to be from? 💀
legal is mean good or beautiful
howww? uk portogues 😱 wow mashalllah
yea
Não há exagero
about that ...
I see that most of our old society used to see depression or anxiety as "drama"
Since the beginning of the pandemic, we have had to stay in our homes, consequently people needed to deal much more with their feelings, emotions, fears...
and many people committed s****** and developed other disorders.
what made the world understand the importance of struggling with depression and anxiety.
in that day i just clicked randomly 1 and 0 it doesn't mean i love you lmao
whats rara
same
s * * * * * * *
you can understand a binary code is fake by counting the numbers
it should be split by 8 or 16
according to most popular encodings
ohh ty
I'm from Nicaragua but I speak Portuguese, kk
hmm
the discord conecting countries
to read it you should convert to decimal and look at the encoding table which letter fits to your number
Do you guys play any games?
this is ascii encoding
wow
as you see A is 65
omg
in decimal
the binary is 01000001
this binary code makes 65 in decimal because second 1 and last 1 means 2⁶ + 2⁰
you should count on digit starting with 0
and from right
and take them as power of 2
and sum up
i see
so it is very hard to read a binary code like a normal language
so many
valorant?
what do u seee?
i see means i understand
i played but i didnt like it
tell me what do u think abouuut
i play cs:go
i'm addicted to valorant
i think your opinion is wrong
it doesn't get me fr
so show me your opinion about thaat, i wanna learn
right, I'm not good with numbers
you think that always depression and anxiety were with us right? i think they appeared nowadays according to population of internet
Do you think it appeared with too much internet? thats it?
yeah
I agree, I believe they have intensified due to social media
but I believe they always existed too
hhihihihi
anxiety must be new
who couldn't ask that what time is it in the 90s ?
or cant go out ?
there are people that when they go out they are shaking 💀
anyway time to sleep
g nighhhhhht 
💕
Insha'Allah
Do yo wanna travel in future
Yes
That's good
Good morning sisterrr
I love you more btw ❤️😘
How are you today?
I told ya 
U didn't 
I did 
I didnt know
U dumb
I dunno tell me Dumbo

U said u did
Okay ig 😂😆
whats haram?
huh
Ya
You
What is the list
To make long story short
We can say everything which harms the humans so bad
Is banned in my religion
:).
Ya exactly
makes sense,
Is there anything that is supposed to be not banned but it is banned
Hmmm
I don't think so
Because I haven't faced with such thing myself
Everything which is taboo is harmful
Everything is fine
Then what is taboo?
so halal is about food then
Even some foods are haram too @dusk cairn
Well, actually no. Indigenous religions in my country are considered a taboo,
Sex in general is a taboo worldwide
Lmao. I’m a married man
Oh god again
I’m half portuguese, black and native american
Where are you from?
How could I be fascist lol
People don't consider it taboo nowadays
Brazil
It depends on a lot of things. Trust me lol. I see it first hand
It depends on...?
Well, my wife and I are swingers and people don’t understand the lifestyle. They judge you and everything. So it’s a taboo. I worked many years in the sex market, so unfortunately it is still a taboo, specially twards women
What do you mean by taboo?

Does it I dunno 😅😅
Well It’s not just internet in my opinion I always see people saying everything has standards and they emphasize it so how would you feel about that? Like many people on social media seeing these kinda videos and starts questioning like if they’re enough or not that’s ridiculous actually
Hhh now YK I told u
Ya now j will memorise 🫡🗿

Excellent kid
Hi
Actually, there's no specific country I want to visit most. I wish to visit all the beautiful ones, including Scotland, Canada, and Iceland.
And I expected you to reply with some talk of Paris syndrome. I know of it beforehand, and am prepared for it. Besides, there are a lot of French spots more beautiful and historic in several respects than Paris itself, from Normandy and Brittany to Marseilles, along with all the medieval chateaux, fortresses and towns (including Carcassonne).
Hi
Hello
Hmm
I like women
Hi. We are amateour researches looking for people who wanna help translating important reserved documents, about human smuggling and international crimes. whatever your original country is, we might need you. Interested dm me
Are you implying that being gay is immoral ?
Hi
It's fine to be Christian and it's fine to have an opinion, just make sure to share your opinions respectfully

There are many christians who support homosexuality.
hiii
what's that?
A nuclear weapon
US, Russia, UK, France, China, India, Pakistan, North Korea, Israel.
Yes your knowledge is good
Ofcourse I am man and I enjoy women
'enjoy'
What, so you don't enjoy women? Their mere presence destroy my logical abilities
morniiing
morning
Evening
hi, someone to chat ?
Aha
Yes
Evenin
Hi
aw dear I'm pretty good Alhamdulillah thx for asking, sorry for late i sleept again ,😁
hiii
Hi
Oh don't be sorry it's ok
Taboo
how about you dear
I'm fine too
Heheh
What is this?
This is writing.
Hi
..
👀
That pronunciation thing never happened. No sight of the requestor. 🙅♀️
This looks like beginner chat today. 
Sadly, yes.
And I'm not that much of a conversation starter, to be honest.
Good
hello can some tell me how to improve my communication skills
Join voice channels. It's obvious.
What exactly are you trying to improve ? Pronunciation, confidence..?
even i am too shy with 0 confidence
It's a cure for everything like that.
Alright here's a tip !
Keep going
You can practice self-talk out loud. If you're too shy yet, do it when there's nobody around. You'll see, you'll have lots of things to say ! And the conversation is going to flow naturally.
i can understand what people are saying and what i want to say but every time i fumble or saying uhh ahh in between
thanks for advice man i really appreciate!
You can even do it in front of a mirror to get used to yourself. Being confident is the key
You're welcome !
Have you tried that by writing down? It may help and you will already have time to think also it may help you to know yourself the best
Hello 👋
Hey
Hhello\
hlo guys is anyone here for convo
let me try to create chaos in here

i hope, it will get serious in here with this topic
GOD DOES NOT EXIST (lets see if this topic helps in creating chaos in here. xDD)
hello everyone.I'm new here. I'm a computer science engineer

Me?
ye
Syria, and you?

Nice
Bro why funny?
SAY MY NAME
It has happened many times in my life, maybe my good intentions are my biggest mistake, I helped a person a lot, I only did this because I thought he was my good friend, Then he betrayed me so badly.. I moved on.. and I experienced it again and again and again.. So how do you trust people after that? It's like the daisy you feed with care every day turns into a monster.
fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me
Heyo
if you are speaking about virtual friends allow me to tell you smth about them, they tend to be more fake than Irl friends since they can easily lie
Exactly
It's like that in real life too, but it's true, it's easier to lie here, those who do it staring you in the face without caring about how you feel, it's the same in real life, too.
come on
but That's why I'm here, I'm trying to make some new friends from different culures and backgrounds
I don't care much about what people treat me on here, cyberspace. I always embrace all of them with a passion heart
hi guys.
I have an idea how to decrease the impact of global warming
we can build a giant pipe leading from Siberia to the US
and we can pump cold air down that pipe directly to the US
what's your opinion?
I
agree with ur
opinions
they built factories on our countries and condemn us of not being low-carbon enough
I don't like those politicians
How did he betray you?
I doubt that matters
If you say so.
got betrayed before?
Well, yeah kind of
What about you?
Just because some people hurt you it doesn't mean and it should not change you! be the positive vibe that the world needs!
don't let anyone change your good nature guys! they don't matter, you do! and what you exchange to the world too!
last time was in Uni, but I didn't react nor cared for it that much I just demoted that person from a friend to an aquintance
I tried to do that before but that led me to more problems, Now I'm just a mirror I give you the same treatement you offer me, give respect and get respect
hello!
"You fool me, but you can't get fooled again."

That's one of the worst things that could happen to you.
Many people are trolls. There are genuine people, but they will start immediately thinking you are a troll, and so will be cautious about anything said, and that includes blatant misinformation. As time goes on, they will open up and release a little more genuine information and if you continue to converse with the same person over many weeks and months they will slowly let themselves be known. Including those that are just catfishing.
Hlo
worse has happened to me after 10 month of relationship. you just move on and let time heal u

Same question, over and over again.

you make computers then?

Hey guys
Is there any platform where we can practice public speaking with people?
Like solely for public speaking. To learn it as a skill
Oh hey! how about voice channels maybe?
Hmm I have spoken with random people yeah. But I was kinda thinking more about the 'speech' type in front of lots of people. If I could get to practice that with some people.
Thanks for the suggestions tho
I realised I have only had dialogues usually so might be a good idea to try group discussions.
Hi guys
You know it's a little upsetting when the sudden realization strikes your mind that people, in today's age, get offended way too easily. I've got multiple incidents that have led me to an argument with the misunderstood party which eventually led to immense hatred. Now I wouldn't necessarily fix it, as I have basically done nothing, and it's their problem that they picked up something that they couldn't even understand, and decided to go after me.
Agreed
Something like that has happened with me too, recently.
This has happened many times, in my opinion, lying means cheating, but they are very big lies. 🥲
I'm fine, but I can't trust anyone anymore like I used to.
How are y'all
You shouldn't trust anyone
sure sis
👀
How can i take my life seriously?
I see school as a joke like im chill about my homework while my classmates are stressing about it. Am i just lazy? Like idgaf bout life
Can someone pls give me advice
Like nothing get me excited no more
meet your friends?
yup
I don't want my friends i want to improve myself
take a rest at first, after a few months you'll be able to trust at least a little again. I felt exactly same after betrayal
bruh just ignore it
flawless choice
or beat up people who bothered u
Not trusting anyone can also prove to be disastrous. Believe what you see, trusting only your closest and most loved ones.
You have low testosterone, you should start nofap journey bro
Trust is like a mirror. Once broken, you may arrange the glass pieces into its former shape, but it will be loose, easily separable, the cracks will still remain and it wouldn't be made whole together again.
you might be depressed, or you just havent found the thing youre truly passionate about
You're right, but sometimes even the person closest to you shakes your trust.
@thorny steeple But you've to learn from your experience. Trust in empiricism. You can't do anything about the first time when shit like this happens, can you? That's why I said this.
Trust is such a fragile thing that it can be shattered very easily. No matter how many second chances are given, a heart once scarred is not healed completely
trust back only those who trusts you
But it isn't foolproof.
if we do only stuff that are foolproof, that'll restrain our freedom to a degree where we won't enjoy ourlife
It's a question of trust.
I won't wear bullet proof jacket whenever I go outside
if you can't trust anybody don't expect anyone to trust you
there's no life without pain minimize it by trusting those who seem worth in your eyes
Well human emotions can't be controlled
You're bound to meet/have people whom you trust more than yourself
can be to a certain extent
We're talking about an already scarred heart, as @tough gull just said.
True
But when you genuinely trust someone, you stop thinking rationally
some people tend to trust easily while some others gradually do that over the years
I wouldn't trust people's words much than their reactions/actions
That's just human nature, depends from person to person
those who rely on words only tend to trust people faster
However I'm talking bout genuine trust, the kind where you'd trust a person even with your life
human nature can be forged always, we can improve with time and practice
It's a rather dangerous one tbh
I trust few people with my life, and it's rational and emotional at the same time
True but not fully
I doub't I can trust anyone just based on emotional except if they are part of my fam
Yes. And at the heat of the moment you can never trust yourself with what to do
I will never say fully until I live that, bc my words can fool me
You'll be torn between choosing your brain and heart
You won't be able to
I am able to
You'll know when the time comes Skuggi
I believe
when's that?
find a hobby : sports, art ..
Well how could I say? It's all written in your destiny
destiny? rationally speaking we can't proove that a 100%, but if you use yr heart and brain you can believe in that
I do believe in destiny. relegion using both for instance
I'll have something to say
sure
i think 'the closest people' who hurt and disappoint you most, it seems more normal bcz you are involved in eachothers lives
i'll explain it briefly, I use my emotions until it goes against my brain, I use my brain untill I can't understand stuff
when meetings stuff I can't understand fully i open my heart to what I don't know and open my brain to what makes sense
Hmmm
In my last reading class, we read The Enemy by Pearl S. Buck
It's a beautiful story illustrating the dilemma faced by a Japanese doctor. He is on crossroads, having to choose between his brain(i.e.- his rational thinking, national chauvinism and racist mindset) and his heart (obligations as a doctor and cry of humanity)
I read it once with you guys, but it's been a while
if i remember
Ic, we were continuing with the chapter ig
they found like an american soldier in the beach him and his wife
they were hesitante and all
Yeah saving an American might cost them their lives
After all the Japanese and the Americans were at each others' throats at that time
The entire family would be endangered if word had gone out
I guess i was wrong then you can't always use both
there are some ultimatums like this one
It need not always be an ultimatum
In much simpler situations we tend to make decisions unilaterally
let's say you mostly use both in assessing and one in judging
I'd say that when you trust someone so much that you stop thinking rationally, the trust changes to remote infatuation. I'm against such irrationality and believe that there should be a restricted amount of such matters.
That's true, but hopefully such times have become simpler now and we frequently and profitably are open to making unilateral decisions.
And thanks, @thorny steeple. You sparked a goddamn debate.
Comment on your views on trust.
As you saw just now.
And how about when you've been betrayed once already? How would you manage to trust others then?

All are dead
I'm sorry

Sup how are you

What bit of trivia do you know that is very interesting but also very useless?
what is a trivia?
Who knows
a random fact
Hmm
No. It's like a random knowledge about anything. Like, for example, the arrow near the fuel gauge in the fuel indicator shows the side where the fuel tank opening is.
Good
but it's not useless tho
Yeah. My example is useful. I was just mentioning it, for the sake of giving an example
oh ok
Ants can lift 10-15 times their body weight
did you get that from the internet?
That's a random trivia, which serves no purpose other than just amusement
I knew about it beforehand
Hi
wassup homie
does it truth the people who speak english whole their live's aware it less than foreigners with C1/C2?
merely I occasionally see commentaries under videos with language test, there are indeed often native speakers said that it was too arduous
Maybe
the language test to me is pretty easy
but then again i started learning english when i was pretty young as we were preparing to emigrate

no
i talk to my family in my native language
i use english at work though

I merely wanna emigrate here too
im a firefighter paramedic

why emigrate bro isn't china better than capitalism??
you think i had a choice? 😂
oh are you a greedy capitalist?
Mental handicap rip
no?
Which is worse, falling sleepless because of worries? Or sleeping all the time because of that?
you said you had no choice. Did they kick you out for some reason?
I think China is a great place with universal healthcare and basic income
Leaving that and emigrating to the USA is crazy 💀
All the time is worrying
i was 10 years old?
You can always go back right
if i wanted to but i dont really want to
USA sucks if you're poor
good thing im not poor 
I guess you have a money making machine at home
i just have a good job
what do you think of systematic racism in USA
privileged 💀
maybe its because im smart and got into med school
What's your IQ
it doesnt bother me so idrc about it 
above average
So 91?
148
no matter what i say i cant prove it to you, believe what you want but i know what my iq is 
I'll believe if you show the test scores
my test scores are all in chinese 😂
No problem
and buried away somewhere in my parents house
I'll translate (:
Yeah always there is reason
yeah have fun with that, im not showing you that 😂
Bro why the cap
believe what you want
I hate society having bad stigma over low IQ people
Meritocracy is tyranny by the intelligent
Yeah I don't believe you. If you say 140, I'll keep mine at 240
cool
You don't wanna increase the number?
graduate with a PhD in physics and you can prove your 200+ iq 😂
Nope
my iq isnt my personality, my job is 😂 idc about the number you're the one that brought it up
Yeah beating the drums with math and computer science over here
interesting
IQ is important for you so the number was inflated by you
Anyways
🤷♂️
its not my fault you're so upset over a number so you have to prove someone online wrong
Neurolink is starting off with human trials.
would you rather have an educated doctor that knows what they're doing or an uneducated doctor that has no idea what they're doing 🤷♂️ just saying
I'm happy about that. Anybody can be intelligent with a brain machine interface. No one has to be left alone
whatever you say buddy
We have a egalitarian society with everyone with the same IQ
Even though I'm not Chinese
😂 have fun being the same as everyone else, brag about the fact you need a machine to be smart
did i ask?
first you say my iq is fake now you're trying to say you're more chinese than a chinese person? 😂
Sure
It's called a life of a cyborg
are you german
Just like the phone is akin to your limb. People can't live without it.
I'm a technocrat
that didnt answer my question
Where did I talk about the Third Reich?


literally nowhere
Means? I'm not a German?
good for you
Something that benefits the greater society is good
cool
The day the system of homework goes extinct is the day we shall rise with power.
Don't be, I'm thanking you. A debate is exactly what's been wanted in the channel for a long time. And speaking of resorting to therapy to renew a broken trust and end a suspicious mentality, sure, I can say that it gives you a chance to start over and experience the same opportunities in life to learn valuable lessons, but doesn't change the mentalities of the population, unless they undergo successful therapy too.
aww tyyy
Hey
Hi
I swear, I'll pull the fire extinguisher from the school wall, and paint it in white. This'll be the most memorable last day in school.
In my understanding saying that an argument was week old, and that the person should forget about it is stupid. People read a lot about history, why can't they let that go? It has significance in today's world, but it no longer exists now, so the point of remembering is stupid?
Not if you're interested in remembering history. Then you'd find a trove of reasons defending such points, one of them probably dictating that remembering history greatly understand and relish the current state of affairs, and how they came to be.
Why do you have Andrew Jackson in your profile then? Better to put Xi there...
