Who's to say you're not (I won't, at the least)?

perfectionist mindset - as one is writing,

I think an "M-Dash (perfectionist mindest— as one is writing,)" would be more appropriate than an "N-Dash" in your statement. No 'nested' parentheses needed (unless you're looking to add non-essential (though insightful) info to your sentence); but the type of... "PAUSE" makes all the difference

If you buy a gift for someone, but they refuse to accept it, who then owns the gift? You do!

Your anger doesn't upset me, but you're still the one left holding it and experiencing it

You sound smart enough to figure out how to find some therapy, my friend. You should try and do that for yourself, or work harder at self-control and compassion

Don't bother typing a long-winded response, I'm moving on. Good luck to you in all of your endeavors!

Reading your comments as I scroll: maybe you added some insight; but your delivery is crass. It makes you seem deliberately elitist... and makes me ignore your "angry" comments. You've made the conversation worse by adding to it, without consideration of anything besides your own opinion

And the worst part is you don't even consider it a personal failing.

Isn't that ironic.

Incomprehension of fraction to decimal conversion is why 90% of people who say they are bad at math, say they are bad at math

I feel called out. I was in high-school Calculus (11th grade) before I "truly" understood fractions. Like, I honestly somehow managed to make it to Calculus without knowing how to add and subtract fractions without a calculator. Thought I was dumb in math until 9th grade algebra, and didn't start becoming a bit of a math nerd until Calculus

Yeah, a second look at the men in the background in that one shows the usual AI fuckery. The other one's pretty dang good, though in comparison

I was actually thinking the exact opposite. Interesting to me though, is that we both see the subtleties which makes it look like AI. I can't point it out exactly (like too many fingers or something), but it's like the contours of their faces are off? Or something uncanny, at the least. I feel like photoshop could do it better (though not nearly as fast)

They also help orphaned children find family and aspirations!

Nurse here: we ask 'orientation' questions as part of our assessment

I had a younger patient going through the straights with hallucinations (newly diagnosed schizophrenia)... and I had been asking the same questions (as we do) a lot

So I asked them once again, "Do you know why you're in the hospital?". Their response: "Deez nuts!"

I always appreciate a good "Deez nuts" joke, but that one has been my favorite so far. The volition on their face and the shitty smirk; they're completely tied down with a guard because they would occasionally be violent... but hot damn, that was a zinger.

I counted their response as oriented— they know what they did lol

What's wrong with orcas? I mean, it seems like they're kinda psychotic... but who's to judge?

It's always refreshing to crack open a cold one?

Beautiful
