Life decisions

All my life, i've been a "tech woman". if anything like that actually exists.

i've been criticized for liking things that are "more for men". be it gaming, be it computers, or be it studying a STEM career. "friends", family, even my own parents, have made fun of me because it. that doesn't feel good.

it's great to be able to write here, where online strangers can commont on it, and even if i get harsh comments, it seems more possible to get empthy from here than from rl people. real life "friends" i've had seems to be with me just because, they have criticized me for liking gaming and for the decisions i've made for my life.

have you ever been criticized for liking some hobby? for studying something you feel passion for?

Imagine discouraging someone from something that they have genuine interest and talent in, especially if it's something that pays the bills like CS. There's something wrong with those people.

I got criticised for getting a Masters degree then going into a random job that definitely didn't need it lol. People will criticise for anything, just gotta do good by yourself.

that's very infuriating. it's good to have an optimistic attitude about it like you... :), as long as you feel good, there's nothing wrong with it. i wish i could really simply ignore all that criticism.

I don't really give a fuck what people think.
People ought to look at themselves before passing judgement.

i wish i could think like you. it's hard for me to ignore them all, but ive tried. i was kind of depressed lately, not medically diagnosed, but i simply felt wrong and couldn't get anything done, and just because i took some stupid comments into my mind so hard.

thanks for commenting. i'll try to improve my "fuck giving" abilities. :tpi: i'm serious. thank you.

Nah—sounds like you should become a misanthrope or join bumble.

No personal investment, but I’d take some stock in having a “social media”-thing-y to see if there are others like you.

If you want to work on the “fuck giving”, I’m all boner. 🛐👍

Reals beals: you’ll be fine; 2023 humans on Earth are dogshit.
Super conceited, whiny, weak (hearted/minded), and generally just bad.

Get some real people in your life—if you can’t borrow $500 or stay at their house for two weeks, they aren’t friends….yet?

    What's the point of "confirming" games you know will get released. Like Nintendo "confirming" a Zelda sequel. "We can't be sure Nintendo is working on a new Zelda game, or if a new Zelda game will ever be released, until they officially confirm it."
  • Veho @ Veho:
    "There is literally no way to know if they will ever release a new Zelda game, it's wild speculation until they officially confirm it."
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Black ops was the lesser shitter line in cock a poopoo tbf just a way to let people know it hasn't died or going a different route I guess
