Low income voters who supported Trump deserve what he does to them.

Such a fantastic game. It’s been my favorite game since the first time I played it.

It goes into Trump’s pocket.

There are mental health resources online you can use. You’ve created a lot of barriers for yourself though. I don’t really know what you want here. It seems like you’re just here for a pity party, not to seek actual advice and actually better yourself. Maybe you should do some introspection and try to figure out why you’ve created so many barriers, and what it is that you actually want out of life.

Relationships take work, so if you’re not willing to put in any work, you’re not going to have a successful relationship.

It sounds to me like you may be suffering with motivation issues, though. That can be diagnosed and treated by qualified medical professionals. It might benefit you to talk about your feelings and your sense of motivation with a psychiatrist.

Speaking from my own experience with psychiatric drugs, they improved my life immensely. A lot of people have told me that I don’t need them and that I should just “buck up and put in the work,” but those people are speaking from their own experiences. Things that work for person A might not work for person B. If you can find something that works for you, your life may improve substantially.

Psychiatric issues often stem from chemical imbalances in the brain, and those can be invisible to outsiders, unlike a broken leg. But just like a broken leg, seeking medical help can drastically improve your outcome.

I hope you can find something that helps you. Everyone deserves a shot at happiness.

Aren’t microplastics from car tires more common?

It happens. I’ve met several girlfriends randomly. My favorite story of this happening was when I moved to the SF Bay Area. My sister told me, “now don’t go and date the first girl you meet up there.” Well, when I got to the Extended Stay I was booked at for the next two months, there was this super cute girl named Madison working at the check in counter. This was at like 2AM, and I had just driven about ten hours. We had a pleasant conversation, and I checked into my room. The next couple weeks, we saw each other several times, and we started to flirt. One day I asked her out to lunch, and she said yes. We started dating, and she took me to my first hockey game. (She was a big Sharks fan.) The relationship only lasted a few months, but I found it funny that I literally dated the first girl I met up there.

The best advice I can give is to just be friendly and good spirited. Most people like friendly people. Also, don’t go out trying to meet other people. Just enjoy going out places and doing things. That’s when things can happen naturally. When you meet someone you hit it off with, worst case is you just have a lovely time with them and never see them again. Who cares, a lovely time is a lovely time. If you ask if they want to meet you again, and they say yes, well you just made a friend. And if that friendship turns into a relationship, great! If not, who doesn’t like having more friends?

Having a good friend circle is another great way to meet people. If your new friend introduces you to their other friends, you can make more friends, and maybe you’ll find someone else you really hit it off with. The biggest thing to avoid is being pushy. The pushier you are with someone, the more they’ll distance themselves (not always, but almost always in my experience).

Someone broke the back window of my car and pulled back the shade to reveal all my cleaning supplies (Windex, paper towels, spray cleaner, etc). I mostly felt pissed off that they broke my window and didn’t even steal anything. Like, at least take my half bottle of Windex.
