  • Considering how much meat is required to keep a lion fed per day, part of me thinks feeding it to lions would be sensible but on the other side it depends on making sure the meat is cleaned and that the animal that died didn’t die of a cause that would cause internal damage to the lion. Lions on the Serengeti feed on freshly caught food so their catch is usually pretty clean.


  • It depends on why you’re in the games and what is going on with your life.

    It can be an escape

    It can be a break

    It can be an outlet

    It can just be for fun

    It can be an exercise for the brain

    But if it’s not providing any of that maybe that’s not what you need right now. It can also be a thing you need the escape/break from.

    It’s just a thing for spending time without productivity so walking away from it isn’t a big drama. It’s going to be there later when you want it.

    There’s other things that can provide a break or be fun for a while until you find the joy of the game again.



  • I’ve only ever got into anime shows for their quirky story or character personality development.

    Not once was it for the design or terrible animation. If I ever do refer to breathtaking anime it would be studio ghibli but that’s about it. And even given its age, today’s anime really can’t compare. They just wouldn’t put in the work like they once did.

    Not surprised a lot of kids get deep into it and then drop it fast as they grow older. Cutesy wears off when that’s the only thing going for it. It gets annoying after a while.

    It also exploits another person’s tragedy to make it about themselves taking away from the tragedy to focus on them. It’s narcissistic. And it’s reductive of tragedy. If speaking of third world problems should only be to focus on them. Not to take something from them for yourself.

    “You should be grateful”

    If it’s about trite platitudes and gratitude, go make a list. Find another way to teach that. When the topic is about someone else’s tragedy, get out of yourself and pay attention to those around you more.

    “I have to remember so blessed when I think of someone else’s tragedy”

    If you need a boost, Count your blessings against your own gamut of success. No need to compare and push yourself in front of someone else’s gamut all just to feel good about yourself.



  • I don’t care about

    I’ve told 3 coworkers already that I don’t talk to them

    Ok so now you’re adding more information here. 3 people. this sounds less about just having some standards and more of a pattern emerging here.

    What you are describing is more in line with how an APD thinks and behaves and not just a mere introvert trait.

    The introversion trait isn’t attached to aversion. It’s based on personal need. No one trait needs to be rude and throw all politeness out the window. That’s bigger than a mere trait. People with introvert trait (without comorbidity) can actually talk to people and have a social ability even at work and they do not shy away from socializing full stop. They take periodic breaks based on need.

    they feel offended

    Again: that’s predictive.

    Something doesn’t compute here. Unless you’ve misplaced yourself into a customer based industry and you’re just not a people person: Having a mere trait doesn’t end up with a collection of people aggressive at work. Nor would it be so attached to aversion and delivering hostile narrative on what other people must be thinking.

    There is a proper way to break a conversation without having to be abrupt about not wanting to talk. Simply having a trait doesn’t rule over basic common decency.

    You sound like you have something else going on aside from just the introvert trait.
