To improve is to change. To perfect is to have smoked pot often.

Unless you�re in a state where weed isn�t legal then in which case that advice is null.

"Act as if the future of the universe depends on what you do, while laughing at yourself for thinking your actions make any difference."

This piece of advice has made me feel much better and calmer on many occasions, while my sister finds it to be abusrd and counterproductive.

I believe this shows a fundamental difference between my sister and myself.

Thanks to Manifisto for the sig!

when you find yourself in a new crowd (like byob, for example) go with the flow. don't try to be the flow.

Good advice.

lol but: body is a dinosaur

unless you are about to gently caress or fight you do not really need all that much eye contact. think of it as you think of capers

Its amazing how little nice things for someone without any thought of something in return will create crazy strong friendships.

Also we all undervalue things we do that we find easy. I know I hear compliments and sometimes wonder if they are being ironic or fake nice. Its best to assume everyone is genuine and not overthink things.

Receiving an honest compliment by another human or other species is always such a brutally positive feeling, especially as society usually expects you to turn it down publicly.

Take it in and feel good about it. You have reasons for others to honestly compliment you!

Learning to accept complements was super hard to do but I got there, although I still feel the instant and sudden urge to give one back otherwise I feel weird

Always have a spare bag of pasta or two in your cupboard. In fact, maybe more than a few. Pasta doesn't go bad, and its good to have in case of financial downturns or illness where you can't leave the house for a few days.

Across Vvardenfell there are a few damaged glass daggers that can be purchased for cheap, repaired for a small sum, and then sold for fat stacks.
One such example is sold by a pawnbroker in Suran.

Beans too, always be ready to make enough chili to feed an army just add meat. Any meat really it's the only thing you need fresh and ileven in the nuclear apocalypse even rat or roche meat will do.

Spices can make any rudimentary ingredients into something worth making again too.

Everybody who ever got good at something got there by practice. You can' do anything really well if you practice it enough probably

Resting Lich Face: This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.

It doesn't sound inspiring or anything but one of the most impactful things I've figured out is that aside from a select few close people nobody cares about me. This is a good thing. Nobody is really judging me, or noticing me, or cares what I'm doing because they're all preoccupied with their own poo poo. It's great, and once I realized this my confidence rocketed.

imagine if you will that there's two pills to take in front of you and one is blue and one is red. If you pick the blue pill things stay the same, but if you take the red one you'r whole life could change. What I'm trying to say is, pick the red pill today

I was just making a joke about how "taking the red pill" has been co-opted by shitheads.
