Regarding fairly dangerous sports like snowboarding, downhill skiing, BMX, skateboard, unharnessed climbing etc: I (almost) never do the “one last run”, and those are famously the ones you get injured on. When you are tired and it’s time to go home and rest, I go home and rest instead of doing “just one more” and getting hurt.
I’ve still injured myself but not nearly as much as I might have if I had pushed myself beyond the tiredness. It’s hard to prove the injuries you haven’t sustained though…
There are two replies earlier in the thread I think are for you:

I think you can be likeable or unlikeable with either of those traits. You can tell someone loudly in a group setting that they stink, or you can discreetly before they even go out remind them to put on deodorant. Your honesty doesn’t impact your likeability, it’s how you apply it. Same with sociopathy.
Yes, they do. The rules are just different from yours.
Thank you, ma’am. I haven’t properly woke up yet, I’m sure my violence will come…
They’re saying it’s a matter of perspective. From a German speaking perspective, if you used your “proper” capitalisation it would be lacking according to their “proper” capitalisation. Example:
I can only laugh about it, Upper and Lower case in the english Language is a good Joke.
I cant think of any examples myself, but if you’ve only seen the project hail mary-movie, I’ve got great news for you!
Tap for spoiler about Project Hail Mary
The book contains so much more info about Eridians and Erid, including biology and culture, interactions between all the characters (both on earth and in space), and the science. It’s a damn worthwhile read even if you already know the plot.
Those things are not dependent on if you are nice or not (well, it’s easier to make good friends if you are nice, of course).
You’ll never live in easy mode regardless of if you are nice or mean. You need money and other such privileges for easy mode (and even then everyone has their struggles).
You can choose between struggling and being a good person, or struggling and being a bad person. Good or bad doesn’t change the outcome.
You should ask them! Maybe they’ll start thinking about it.
I’ve had a few occasions where I’ve gone after someone who left droplets after themselves. I (discreetly) brought them into the bathroom and kindly asked them to please clean up so I can use the toilet. Perfect amount of shame having to clean it up while knowing I’m waiting, in dire need for a wee.
Never had to repeat myself either, but I don’t invite or visit people who would have to hear that more than once. (Except for children and perhaps teenagers, they can need a few reminders if they insist on standing).
Bad shit will happen. Shit happens to everyone. It has nothing to do with who you are as a person. But if you’re trying to do good and be good, that can be a comfort in trying times, because how you feel inside is what matters when it comes to who you are.
Do you want to be a good person? What does that mean to you; how do you expect a good person to behave? How do you feel when you act against those expectations?
When shit happens you can feel bad because shit happened AND feel bad because you were rude about it… or you can feel bad because shit happened but ALSO feel good because at least you tried to be kind and understanding and didn’t yell at anyone or make someone else feel bad.
I’d rather feel bad (about things) and good (about myself) than bad (about things) and bad (about myself). That is the reward: at least you tried.

How come you use both? Do they have different use cases or specialities?
Alright. What is it about?
Heads up: Your self-censoring instead did some unintended formatting (everything between two asterisks/stars formats to italics, between two double-asteriks it formats to bold)
If by “this generation” you mean the generation of people owning companies (that don’t want their advertising associated with this stuff), the generation owning social media companies (that fold to the real or imagined pressures of advertisers), and the generation who writes the law… then I still have no idea.
No. Left doesn’t start with an L in my native language, and I’d get confused on which way to write an L just by watching my hands anyway. Instead I pretend to shake someone’s hand, and whichever hand I want to put forward is the right hand.
Beating the shit out of them. Use a big stick or special tool. If you have a rack nearby you can use it, but otherwise a sturdy fence or railing works as well. Clotheslines will not work.
Between beatings I’ll vacuum topside often, and sometimes turn them over to vacuum underside as well. Your vacuum may have a vent (likely somewhere on the pipe, near where you hold it) you can open for more airflow, to make it easier to vacuum without sucking up the fabric itself.
As a yearly/seasonal cleaning you can scrub them with snow (if you have snow) and a rough brush. Quite fun!
Probably at a racetrack a year or so ago, but out on the street? No idea. Even reds are getting kinda rare. It’s supremely boring.
Grow it out and add a toupé, and you’re set.
