I need to take a social science course(sociology, anthropology, journalism etc...) in order to graduate. It can be any course, but there are so many to choose from. I'm just looking for a fun and interesting course. Can anyone recommend me something?
>>18243328
Cultural anthropology
If you get a good prof, it'll open your eyes so much
Does economics count? Probably the most interesting subject you can take if it does, otherwise I'd go with journalism since learning to read the news and understand bias is actually kind of important.
>>18243328
anthropology is the top dog for fun social science. really depends on your preferences and the college though. any more information?
Should I take liner algebra before calculus? I posted this question in /sci/ and keep getting flagged
>>18243290
Yes of course
>Should I walk before I run
>>18243308
Linear algebra =\= college algebra
>>18243313
No, but knowing one helps knowing the other
There's a reason why they teach linear algebra to kids and the other to adults
Is the Goldwater news a legitimate news source? Never heard of them before but I'm seeing them every where recently. Pic related
Yes
No
Maybe
I don't know
Could you repeat the question?
Sure. Is "www.thegoldwater.com" a trustworthy news source? Aka, if they were your kitchen floor, would you eat off them? Would you trust them alone with your daughter? Please answer my question
Doesn't seem like it from reading this.

I am in desperate need of a way to full reset an iphone 7 for someone who forgot the apple id and wants to sell the phone. I managed to remember DFU mode exists and even installed a fresh ios package but when I connect it to a network it still has an activation lock. I'm in deep shit if this doesn't work and I'm competent enough to jailbreak but I've been told that requires removing the password to begin with. I'm kinda begging for a solution anywhere I can find it because apple made me wanna tear my eyes out in 2009 and it still does
working solution gets any message they want hidden as an easter egg in the used phone before I give it back (obligatory shameful self bump)
>someone who forgot the apple id and wants to sell the phone
they have to take it to the store, they will be able to recover the id based on past payments
there is not another option, thief
>>18243258
past payments to what? she wants to sell it because money is needed and it's been sitting in a box bricked since she got her cheaper android. I don't want to use this piece of shit
How the fuck do I become a more resilient person?
>feeling horrible, light-headed
>faint but ever throbbing pain in clit, extremely distracting and makes me just want to run home and lay down (fairly random; for some reason it occasionally happens when I'm feeling fucked up)
>6 hours of sleep the night before which for some fucking reason is enough to render me into a dysfunctional wench; area around eyes is discolored, dark, like smudged mascara, and I can't seem to think or speak well
>coffee doesn't appear to work
>feel embarrassed about my appearance, feel like a walking bag of trash, don't wanna be seen by anyone
>not even being sick
>end up skipping two of my classes because of this so I can go curl up in my room
>actually love my classes
>doesn't stop me from being a goddamned fretful flake
I feel like a textbook case of the person who's a slave to sensation and feeling. I loathe myself for it. I literally am the type of person who'd easily sleep in through work and lose my job...and I'd not feel a thing. Obligations aside, though, there's some thing's that are important to me, ones that'll spawn regrets if I always cast them away for the sake of my fuzzy comfort zone.
I know I am a fuckin awful person.
How do I unfuck myself?
D-do... stuff. :^]
Heh, betcha didn't see that coming.
>>18243185
Are you:
>White?
>Overweight?
I hope you are not saying that you feel embarrassed about your appearance just because you have tired baggy eyes. Lots of guys even find that attractive.
Either way just go to bed earlier unless you are also an insomniac.
>tfw laying in bed for 7 hours and finally falling asleep 40 minutes before you have to get up for work
I found out from a mutual friend that my close friend broke up with his pretty serious gf. He helped me a lot during my worst breakup and I want to be there for him. How do I let him know I found out and am here for support? We don't live close anymore but still talk online frequently.
>>18243125
don't say anything unless he starts speaking about it, and if he does, take it easy
or you could ask him about it and if he wants to talk, go from there then.
don t rush it and you ll do fine
good luck
Just say hey, I heard what happened. That sucks and I'm sorry, just wanted to let you know if you ever need to talk, I'm here for you.
>>18243187
>>18243218
Thanks!
I have been finding that almost everything I do is boring
Hobbies that I enjoyed
Reading books
Watching anime
Video Games
It's getting quite bad to the point where I just do nothing for hours or when I try to do something I get bored/tired of doing that thing quickly. I wonder if this is a side effect of being old or is there a way to go back to carelessly enjoying shows and games.
>>18243079
sounds like you're bored of consuming. try creating.
>>18243082
But my hobbies are creating, drawing woodworking, sewing, writing I'm just too creatively dead to have these hobbies feel fulfilling
>>18243088
>my hobbies are reading, watching, and playing
>no wait, they're creating, creating, and creating
mhmm.
I suffer major depression and social anxiety. I was told because I'm troubled to seek a religion of some sort. Is there a proper book or website that teaches principle Buddhist values?
Tibetan Book of the Dead. I'm in the same boat as you and just started. That or type in Buddhist scriptures into google or something. That'll give you a shitload of stuff to choose from
>>18243074
Is there a free source to Book of the Dead? I hunted for pdf's and they're all broken.
You need Jesus in your life.
Even my psych told me I don't really like people. I'm in Uni, and I need new friends. All of my old friends stemmed from drugs to the point where I noticed we never hung out if no booze/bud. I want a new girlfriend as an end goal, but before that I need to new friends. I've noticed I'm a somewhat likable person, I have humor, and I've been seeing more positive smiles from classmates, rather than negative ridicule-like smiles. When I ask what should I do, all I hear is join a club join a club join a club. I've never been in a College club, I've seen many around campus, and they're always full of wholesome boring people. Whenever I've talked to ideal students like this before, I always weird them out. I'm at the conclusion, I really don't know what I want in a friend. I want people that share my interests, but I never find them.
Forgot to mention, I have one week left of school. I'm bound for another summer of anger and loneliness.
Thanks for the help guys, next time I should post the 10000th thread on how to 'win' a girlfriend. One of the only topics people here respond to.
>>18243033
You definitely should join a club if you can find one that piques your interest. Maybe even move in on campus. Maybe even go to a church next to uni. The key is to get more and more involved. If you dont like people subconsciously that means youre rejecting them for whatever reason so you need to get that sorted out also. It might be some trust issues.
How much caffeine do I need to wean myself off of cocaine?
Hahaha you fucked up lay in the bed you made
>>18243030
I don't wanna.
>>18243052
then stop doing coke dipshit
so a few days ago I was showering and wanted to masturbate, got hard, but my sister (18, pic related) wanted to shower as well and rushed me out of there, I was hurrying out with a towel and it ofc fell down when passing my sis, while I still had a semi going on. I noticed she didn't hesitate to turn her head away and bit her lip a little, and later I heard her masturbate in the shower (my room is next to the bathroom). could it mean she's into me?
>>18242994
Go away roleplayer
>>18242994
I am afraid your whole family uses shower as fapping booth regardless on who made them horny this day.
Also posting your family members on 4chan. What did she do to you? Do you also have her nudes?
The simplest solution is to just ask her. The naughty option is to wait for her next shower and then go in once she is in middle of bussiness. But it all depends on how much
>>>/d/egenerate you are.
Buy condoms.
Yeah mention it to her and try to make a move maybe running your hand along her thigh if you like her shit ik I would don't ever let me meet her she is cute
Every day I wake up with a feeling that my eyes are dry and I temporarily see blurry. I'm afraid of losing my eyesight or even my eyes, or having eye cancer. Is this because of the time I spend looking at screens? Can this be solved quickly or should I see an eye doctor immediately?
This used to happen to me a lot when I was a total shut-in who rarely went outside (and even continued when I regularly walked every other day as well).
It's likely from looking at a screen for far too long, yes, but it could be the sign of something else.
Go ask a doctor.
>>18242988
Get some eye drops from the chemist see if that helps.
I'd go doctors though. It might be something easily treatable but with bad consequences if you leave it
its from looking at a screen too long. when I switched from primarily enjoying video (or just flipping around the computer screen while listening to music) to enjoying audio, the entire thing stopped.
>my eyes are dry is this a serious emergency?
no
yo /adv/ how do you deal with being a degenerate.
>tfw never will be as smart as geniuses in mit and shit.
>tfw never will have 10/10 qt wife with beautiful kids.
>tfw will have to work 10 times longer to achieve what others achieve naturally
Why even bother?
>>18242965
I am afraid you swapped
>>>/d/egenerate
with
>>>/b/umb
What do you want from life?
>>18242965
That's called being normal.
>Why even bother?
Because even if you were an actual genius, there would be still someone smarter. Even if you had a 10/10 qt wife, there would be someone with a hotter and cuter one, and even if you could learn new skills in couple hours, there would be someone who can do it faster and started sooner.
Is there something YOU actually want and not some vague shit that others have?
>>18242980
This.
There will always be someone smarter, prettier, someone who just seems to have it easier in life. Does that mean your life will be shit as a result? Only if you let it be. The more you compare your life with others, the more unhappy you will be. Part of it is because grass is greener syndrome, and part of it is because it's easy to wish you were someone else when you don't know what every aspect of their life is like.
Would you want to have the most beautiful wife of all time if she constantly cheated on you? Would you want to be the smartest man in the world if it meant dying alone?
Don't compare your life to someone else's because it's basically apples to oranges. Do what satisfies you without looking to compare to see how you should be feeling about your life.
I give up.
>gives vague statement with no details to try and draw attention
I'm not dismissing your problems, it's just annoying behavior. What's going on OP?
>>18242945
I will give you all the attention you need op. Whats up with these dogs?
I'm not as good of a person I once was and i have nothing to give to the world.
So, I got nothing to complain, just looking for advice. I only had sex with two girls, was in a relationship with both of them. Currently, I want to have sex with girls without assuming a relationship BUT it's always weird for me. How do I know the girl isn't developing feelings for me? I had one girl that was flirting with me, but I got scared of fucking her feelings up or something. There is another one interested in me now. How do I play this game? I don't want to be a fuckboi but yes, I do want to get laid. Should I be blunt? What do I do /adv/, do I avoid feelings talk? Do I compliment her ass (she actually likes that kind of shit)?
>>18242928
Avoid feelings talk. If she digs ass talk and shes into you then yes, compliment her ass.
>>18242933
Aye, I gotcha. Should I still ask shit like how her day was and crap like that? Just be courteous in general. I don't know shit about having sex outside relationships as you can see
>>18242938
I dont know. Depends on her and your relation to her.
Im no player but ive had enough outside relationship flings to know one or two things...
Normally regular small talk is fine as long as it evolves into actual conversation. Humour is your friend. And yeah if shes down and you break the compliment her sexual assets ice then youre pretty much in as long as you act on it.
Aka no saying she has a good butt then never asking for pics or inviting her out or suggesting activity n shit.
If its just a daily "hey how are you. Nice ass" and no follow up she gets bored.
