If I were in your situation with the knowledge I have now, I'd say, in order of priority

1. Make sure you understand and accept the position you're in

2. Try and understand that changing ourselves is done 1 thing at a time

3. Exercice (very important)

4. Write down some realistic goals and set up a few hours each day to work towards them.

Don't beat yourself too much, enjoy the little things in life (for me, beer, eating, and coffee), and stay kind with your fellow humans

More like always let people lick the frozen pole

Found it to be cheesy, like all mainstream content.

I don't care im gonna drink maple syrup till i fucking die

To anyone that hasn't drank various types of maple syrup, I highly recommend it. Maple syrup can have a very different taste profile based on where the trees are, what year it is, animal diversity in the area, etc. As a species we have some vague idea of how these things interrelate with the syrup product, but the specifics are currently beyond comprehension.

Check out the official Canadian Maple Flavour Wheel to get an idea of the various flavors at hand: https://agriculture.canada.ca/sites/default/files/legacy/res... [pdf]

I recommend to seek out producers of syrup that sell their product directly and can confirm it is unmixed - A lot of grocery-scale distributors will mix together various batches of syrup to make it more uniform at scale which largely robs you of that magical uniqueness.

If you can sample it right off the distillator at a syrup farm - holy crap, you HAVE to. Absolutely divine.

And leave the artificial high fructose syrup at the grocery store!

No observable anxiety there. I assume you're drinking natural maple syrup.

Wrong timing with the Panda/Nintendo drama ;)

It's tricky. Myself being very comfortable alone, I still find myself sometimes craving for socialization, but hanging out with people who don't like the same music as me always leaves me more depressed than before.

Go cry to mama

lmao, go fuck yourself.

In Canada the ISPs send email threats but do absolutely nothing. I get them all the time.

This is because the federal government had the foresight to make a law that 1. Limits maximum damages to something like 5,000$ so that it isn’t worth the copyright mafia’s time to pursue, 2. ISP get complaints from copyright mafia and forwards it to the user but the ISP isn’t allowed to share the user details with the copyright mafia.

That’s why these emails always try and entice you to click a link and settle the crime for a few hundred dollars. They can’t do anything else as they don’t even know who you are but a few chumps will click and pay so it’s free money in a way.

Anyway, great piece of law and I’m glad lobbies didn’t get their way with that in Canada.

Law: does absolutely nothing useful...

>great piece of law

lol! I agree, of course.

I sometimes use my dick as a weapon, but only in defensive situations.

I believe in Hacker News circles this is called “the Erlich Bachman maneuver”
