I haven't gotten to the depths yet, but some responses seem earnest. Different degrees of proof needed when confirmation bias is in play.

What has helped me with this was seeking out local bands and seeing them live. Check out local bars with live music nights or open mics, wander around the biggest city in your area and look for interesting flyers and stickers, or [other useful advice]. As a bonus, when you find bands you like they often play shows with bands that are of a genre you'd never seek out yourself.

I felt that was true for a long time. There are a lot of sub-genres out there that don't promote that kind of thing. Honestly, and this is probably me wearing a conspiracy theorist hat, a lot of hip-hop that essentially glorified a lot of horrible traits was just what a lot of old, rich white dudes figured would make them money.

Great. now the search engine will tell me "I am not designed to provide that information" when I don't use the specific, constantly changing magic words it wants.

This also reminds me that I'm still annoyed my phone options are more or less limited Android and iPhone.

I'm not even at the point of processing if this is satire or not. Is the context that killing a process is offensive? I mean I get 'sacrifice child', but 'kill process'?

I'm not aware of anything. Why are you looking, maybe there is something similar out there.

I grew up going to various Christian schools as a kid. While it wasn't a common viewpoint, I did hear of it from time to time.

The reason behind it, to my knowledge, was that Catholic practices would often be significantly different from other denominations' practices. The biggest thing I can think of is the veneration of and praying to saints.

I'm a software dev. I went to a recruiter and shouted "ME WANT JORB!!!1" and they gave me one.

However, I was only able to get my foot in the door because of friends I made in school.

I like how the link makes it look like scientist cats are being talked about.

I could be wrong, but wouldn't AIDS make it way more likely to get cancer? From my uneducated perspective, that seems like it would be a common thing.

Note: this advice should not be applied to condoms.

I'd say that most forms of music have some kind of rhythm instrument, often those are some form of percussion instrument.

I've definitely heard some experimental stuff that didn't use any form of rhythm instruments. Then again, you can just record the ambient sound of a city and call that music, so to each their own.

I know I will let myself go when I'm in the midst of being deeply depressed, but then again I usually don't get much past my bed then. So that could be some of it.

I used to have a buddy that stank to high heaven, good dude overall, but damn did he smell. Turned out that he never washed his clothes. Once he got in the habit of doing that the problem resolved itself quickly.

The only other thing I can think of would be some Andrew Tate types going on about some made up benefits of 'natural male musk ' or something like that. Not sure if anyone is doing that, but I could see some men taking to that advice.

I have a simple soup rule: if they judge you poorly for you or soup, judge them poorly as a person.

I own [MyFullName].com just so I can have the email me@[MyFullName].com.

If you were able to give a response not dripping with sarcasm you're a better person than I.

That is Smiles O'Breen and he's a servant of Holy Terra.

Someone with memory issues and ADHD? Unheard of!

Okay, hear me out here. We should ban smoking meat next. Just the stuff that has been marinated or seasoned. You know, for the kids.

EDD sounds similar enough to ED that people might get the wrong idea.

With that being said, I'm not going to use the term extensively.
