The Herman Cain award made me sad. It's people who are just the right mix of stubborn, alienated, uneducated, and gullible to dig their heels into something that really made no sense. And then dying because of it.
I wish I was smart enough to find a way to help them instead, but I always get too frustrated talking with them before I even begin to get close.
There used to be a button to visit a random subreddit that I liked to use, until the day that I landed on the sub unironically dedicated to beating your wife/girlfriend. I saw one or two fucked up posts before I fully processed what I was looking at, that I don't even feel comfortable detailing here because I would hate to trigger someone. Truly one of the darkest corners of the internet.
This is exactly what I do too, plus a tablet for quick notes or reading when I'm studying or somewhere a laptop might feel a bit excessive (basically anywhere that I need to be waiting for something).
Also, as a bi person, this is something I always appreciated about video games. I remember telling my friends about it in highschool and they didn't believe me, it was like they didn't even notice. And we were all pretty hardcore gamers.
Sometimes I feel like the only person who doesn't like Wes Anderson movies. I don't understand it at all. Isle of Dogs was the only one I liked, but that one kind of goes against his typical style. I've otherwise watched Royal Tenenbaums, Darjeeling Limited, and Life Aquatic just to try and understand it and I didn't like any of them (I don't think I made it more than halfway through any of them). What am I missing and why does everyone love these movies? (This is a question in good faith, I genuinely want to know because I don't get it)
I left the brand out intentionally, but since you asked I got the Samsung Galaxy Tab. I think any tablet would work though. I only got this one because I already have a Samsung phone so I figured it'd be familiar enough, and the tablet was on a really good sale at the time.
Once I'm done school and working full time I plan on upgrading to a Microsoft Surface.
This is exactly where I'm struggling too. I recently got really into Planet Zoo and love seeing other people's creations. But Reddit is a pain to go to, and the official forums are just people endlessly listing different animals, they're completely pointless. So I want to make a Planet Zoo community here, but I'm also horrible at making stuff. So I try to find other people's creations but Reddit is a pain to go to....and it's just an endless cycle.
My tablet for school. I bought it because I was sick of shifting through stacks of handwritten notes while writing papers. Turns out it was the best purchase I made as a student. I haven't bothered to write on paper since, and it's saved me a ton of time and money (otherwise spent on printing supplies). I've started using it for work as well. I don't know if I could function without one now.
