Isn't living under military life the shittiest way a free human can live?

1 Upvotes

It's centered around restriction and obedience to others. The human spirit lives for freedom and actively seeks it out. Whenever freedoms are taken away, it doesn't make the person happier, it does the opposite. That's why prison is a punishment.

Can people be allergic to bananas ?

0 Upvotes

Hey people, I've heard about pineapple and kiwifruit causing mild sensations in people's mouths.

I get this from bananas and I was wondering if anyone had had a similar effect from bananas?

My fiance says that it's a sign of a mild allergy but I'm wondering if anyone else gets this?

Edit; Thank you all so much for the great information. I've worked as a carer and food assistant at a major hospital and have never seen or heard of it, hence my question. There are several answers that have also broadened my knowledge so I am very grateful to all of you. Thank you.

How did searches i did not make appear on my history?

2 Upvotes

I went to search something up when i noticed some weird searches i did not make, they were quite random to, some of them being:how much is the world's first USB drive, Tesla roadster cost, was Stalin's brain persevered, and more, a lot of them car related for some reason. After that i went to go check my sessions and there was a LOT of stuff, phones i did not recognize, laptops i did not recognize, all of them with random searches, some were checking out some of my frequently used, and one going on a website called "cults."??? I know fully well i NEVER went on that website. Some other searches that weren't AI mode were searching for AIs? I don't know why but I'm to scared to check the other days of my search history because i only chef 2 days and i was freaked out. I immediately changed my password to something 100000x times more secure. Anyways i dunno how this happened, i never clicked on any suspicious links or download anything suspicious, so how did this happen????

Edit: i bit and checked some of my older history and it just kept going on and on and on, also if the searches being about expensive Cassatte players? And fast cars????? I'd ont understand anything that's going on rn.

Should I slowly distance myself from a friend or straight up tell them we can’t be friends anymore?

0 Upvotes

Some context here:
I have a now ex friend who sexually harassed me, and sexually assaulted my best friend, who I will name Drew. We have two other mutual friends who seem to be “choosing” the assaulters side. One of those friends, I’m just cutting off, they don’t deserve an explanation from me because I haven’t known them for that long and have given me other reasons to not be friends with them anymore. The other friend, who I will name James, was one of both mine and Drew’s closer friends. James and Drew got into a bit of a scuffle when Drew tried talking to him about the sexual harassment, which led to Drew saying some stuff that hurt James’s feelings. Drew apologized and is owning up to his decision of involving him right away, but James is not being receptive and ignoring him. I’m guessing that James resents Drew because he has been posting Instagram stories that are basically saying the he was friends with bad people and taking a hit at Drew’s mental health and how it’s affecting him. The level of pettiness and insensitivity that James is showing is ridiculous and I’m getting annoyed at it. He posted photos on his Instagram stories of hanging out with the sexual harasser and the other friend. After that, I decided that I’m not gonna stay friends with him anymore. I’m not willing to be friends with someone who is friends with both mine and Drew’s sexual harasser, knowing how much pain he caused for both of us. I think the sexual harasser probably twisted what actually happened and victim blame to make James feel negatively against me and Drew. I don’t think that James knows how much he’s hurt me, which is why I feel like maybe I should tell him why I’m ending this friendship. At this point in my life, I just want to protect my mental health and my peace, and if that means cutting out toxic people from my life, then I will do it. I’m done being a people pleaser, and done with putting up with people’s bullshit. I don’t want to just survive, I want to thrive and find people that will add good to my life, not stress and negative energy.

So my real question is, should I take the time to text James and tell him that this friendship is over and explain to him how he hurt me, or just slowly cut him off?

Are there examples of elaborate uses of multiple languages within a s0ng's lyrics?

11 Upvotes

I was listening to foreign music, and thinking about how, depending on what language you're singing in, the same general message can vary a lot in how well it does in a typical rhyme scheme. It made me wonder about the extent at which multiple languages have been used lyrically to stitch together meaning.

I'm not talking about the occasional English word or phrase that often pops up in K/J-Pop, but rather lyrics that are comprised of two or more languages with equal footing, preferably within the same sentence or rhyme scheme.

Appointment cancelled by other party. What should I do here?

0 Upvotes

Last week, booked a 15 minute with personality Talia Yoseph on October 20th(yesterday). I even got an email reminder the day before about our little appointment. Anyways, yesterday(the day of the expected appointment) was a busy day, but I was still looking forward to meeting up with her. Right around 3:30 PM, I go into my yahoo email to go into my expected meeting. though, I find another email from that morning saying that the booking had been cancelled.
Ok, fine. Things happen. But I am supposed to get my money back, right? The only mention of a refund in either of the emails is if I had cancelled less than 24 hours of the appointment.

But, I was not the one who cancelled this. THEY cancelled.
And there is no email on her website. What should I do here?

I recently came across a scene like that on a Chinese vase where a bunch of men's hands are holding up lipstick to a invisible woman (pics on profile); And I just love that woman-power scene and want to find more art and vase art like that.

How do your Latino parents handle your mental health struggles?

I was recently diagnosed as bipolar. Both of my Latino parents think that there is no way that I am bipolar. This diagnosis comes after a total of four different psychiatrists agreed on this diagnosis.

I’m struggling so badly but I don’t feel supported. Advice?
