Everything would probably seem pretty ridiculous from that distance... just a tiny rock spinning around the sun in the middle of nowhere, hosting a life that lasts for a mere fraction of infinity. And don't even get me started on how little we actually know about anything. It honestly feels like some kind of video game.
It’s like we’re all playing through a level—as if before we were born, someone asked if we wanted Earth or some other planet. You wouldn't have to think too hard about it; you're only stuck there for a few decades anyway. 🙂
We have absolutely no clue how absurd our "massive" problems actually are.
To me, the only thing that makes any sense is the idea that there's something else after this.
What do you guys think?

That's a pretty deep one.

But, I guess I've always been kind of egocentric and tended to view everything through my own lens rather than looking down from 30,000 feet. If I'm being totally selfish, I feel like the whole point of living is just finding my own happiness. In my case, that means giving it my absolute all and reaching that state of fulfillment by taking the path that's—well, let's call it a masochistically sweet, thorny kind of road toward self-actualization.

Then again, if helping out other people or contributing to the well-being of other beings helps boost my own sense of happiness, then I'll definitely give back, without expecting anything in return.

I was just wondering, like, is it actually safe? Could he pass a virus on to me during sex?

Just use a condom. If you don't, there's a super high chance he’ll pass something to you.

Maybe you could try a quick format? But honestly, I guess it really just depends on how big those individual files are on your drive. Unfortunately, if you're trying to get those photos or bitmap variations back, your chances of a successful recovery after a format are probably sitting around 70% at best. For smaller files, that percentage might actually be a bit higher, I suppose. Good luck!

Honestly, I think you can actually pull back quite a few files just by using some of those basic data recovery tools right after a format. Even if you go through the whole hassle of running a zero-fill program—and I mean even if you do multiple passes—you might still find that you can recover SOME of your stuff.

Never, though I guess maybe once in a while if I'm snacking on some hazelnut.

how is it even possible for someone to be nice to absolutely everyone, trying so hard to stay on everyone's good side, and then just laugh off any kind of insult?

It sounds pretty perfect on paper... but...

Honestly, it’s not ideal at all. I mean, to me, it just looks like a massive level of being totally indifferent, maybe even a bit fake, plus this desperate need to be loved by the whole world. I guess I wouldn't envy that situation one bit.

Honestly, you just try to force your own views on everyone else and then go out of your way to dodge anyone who doesn't see things exactly your way, I guess... good luck growing up, though.
