Im not particularly conscious and I do sometimes smile with some teeth showing, like if I was laughing super hard and my teeth just happened to be showing I wouldnt try to hide it. But if I am, say, taking a group photo, I dont smile with all my teeth out. Its just weird to me.

I am an american and I have lived here my whole life, and I never got this. Almost every person I know IRL except me smiles with all their teeth out like a fucking demented shark or something, and if I dont show my teeth like Im about to bite someone then other people chide in like "come on you arent even smiling!". For some reason americans just bare all their teeth like dogs when we smile and its disgusting and weird

Depending on your state they can also purge the voter rolls and just unregister whomever they want at their whim. Ive had family members and friends get purged and, somehow, the notice that they were purged just magically never showed up in the mail, so they would go to vote and be sent away at the polls. As a result I have to manually recheck my registration before every single election. Each state is totally and completely different in this regard, you cant take any assumption from your home state and extrapolate it to others.

For the record people in my area do actually call their driveway "the asphalt" and I have heard them call it such even if it literally was not asphalt so ymmv lol

Tbh I dont know why anyone would think there are no depths scientologists would go to. Its a sham religion entirely made to drain resources from its members into the pockets of the hierarchy of the "church". Its basically a criminal enterprise and should be treated as one

I agree careers get ruined more often over silly things now, but its not anywhere close to a modern issue. People have been getting some form of "cancelled" for pretty much all of time, sometimes for a good reason and sometimes for a bad reason. If you really live your life in constant terror over the idea, maybe you should become self-sufficient and move off the grid. Thats kinda the only solution to the problem. People are social animals and social animals sometimes make stupid social decisions such as "cancelling" one another and its just kinda unavoidable.

You know, Im obviously one person so my input matters very little, but Id much rather vote for a candidate with your ideals than any of the present options. Hopefully one day there will be a candidate with these ideals and the recognition needed to win the election

Forget everything you remember from 20 years ago; D&D basically reworked everything from back then lol. Now everybody from druids to clerics can cast weak spells (cantrips) endlessly, and the main thing about sorcerers is they can use "metamagic" to upgrade their spells slightly and they can cast any spell they know with their spell slots. they dont prepare spells into specific slots. However they do still only know a very small amount of spells relative to most classes.

Why are you proud of being "white" (a term that pretty much means nothing; arent albino african people white?") instead of being proud of your actual heritage? Why aren't you just proud to be you, regardless of your race or sex? Why does/should your race or sex matter at all? Or better yet, why not just be proud of being a human in general? You seem to think an ideal society is one where we dont have to deal with any "isms" whether its racism, sexism, etc. Well, how do you expect to get there if people (including you) are proud of their tribalistic groupings?

Some of those 2000 dlc will actually be like $20-30 just to add insult to injury

To be fair, thats just partially because toxic stories are more interesting. Like, me and my wife have a not-toxic relationship, she never gives me shit about playing videogames even if I spend a whole day gaming, but that just isnt as good of a story to read lmao so I dont bother telling it online, except in this exact moment

Theoretically though, if youre already dead, would it even matter? To me, what youre describing would be the same as if, say, your grandkids or whatever descendants ended up finding a photoalbum filled with pics of you and letters you wrote to friends and family and such. There would be no outside context from you but it could still be a nice heirloom for your grandkids/great grandkids to remember you by and learn a bit about what type of person you were.
