fuck off

it was a lot more in depth than that. and i think it had a wojak picture in it. in fact i think it was also a screencap from a post here, too.

No. I was raised on welfare all of my life. They never needed so much as a signature from me, or a face to face interview with me.

The point being, the parent is the one that has to initiate all applications on your behalf, because as a minor, you have no rights of your own. As you alluded to, you already know the answer: emancipation. But there's no way your parents won't find out, since they're supported serve your parents with a legal notice about what's going on, in case they wish to contest it.

tl;dr no. why are you trying to get benefits without your parents knowing? And why can't your parents just get them for you, if you believe you qualify?

I've only been to one meeting, but you can get an idea of what happens by looking at their website. It says you don't need to participate the first time you go, so you can just watch. However, I was asked to participate and declined, because I couldn't think of a speech on the spot. It starts with prepared speeches, then moves to spontaneous topics. Everyone wrote feedback for each speaker. The speeches were timed.

I live in a big city, and about 20 people showed up. 4 were first timers.

It can apparently vary a lot in culture from branch to branch even within the same city. It was fun listening to people's talks, but it involves some socializing. There is mingling before and after the club activities, with one break in the middle. Everyone was very nice.

I expect it would help someone become a better speaker and more at ease just from the practice in front of an audience. There's nothing to lose by going to one meeting imo.

What is your usual experience with smoking weed OP? Have you been buying from a new dealer recently? Has who you've been buying from recently lower their prices?

I don't have an universal answer, but what makes life worth living for me is the fact that I really love being a graphic designer and I want to become the master of this field, possibly even create my own agency before I die.

Another motivation is holding on long enough to get myself a qt 3D artsy waifu.

Life is hard all the time.

You just need to learn how to hold on and ride it like a pro.

Don't make the mistake I made where every time I've lived by myself, I've developed alcoholism.

I recommend you stave off loneliness by spending maximum amount of time outside your 4 walls and around campus or something. If you have a weekend or something where you have to spend entire day alone, try to go to store, walk somewhere to get a take out or if possible, try to find out if any of your neighbors goes to the same school and then make friends.

Some other advice I can give from personal experience is that before you go, download a shitload of movies to watch. Movies are such a good way to spend that time alone. Also, buy some books, maybe even something related to field you are interested in.

Well, first things first, the basics:
Cook.
Cleaning (clothes, your apartment).
Bills.
Buying stuff consistently.
Know where places like a hospital or police department are.

It might be difficult at first to get used to it because one does not realize how many things our parents do for us until we live alone, it will take you a bit to get used to live alone. And except you know how to cook well, you will be eating pizza quite a lot.

Having said that, it's a great opportunity anon, you can go to see your parents anytime you want, you have an apartment for yourself and nobody else, meaning you can meet people and take them there without worrying about who is there.
Loneliness, at least what I believe, will be the least of your thoughts because you will meet people at uni and you can invite them to your new home.
Now, about going drinking, it's okay, you will surely go with your uni friends or you can go alone, not a big deal. You can also go for a walk and get to know the city.

>I use the dd command to make the bootable iso
**bootable usb

Have you tried following instructions that you find everywhere online?

>>18584622
Yes. No matter what I try I can't seem to boot.
Unless you want to help, please stop being a smartass.

Do roleplays?

>>18584494
Maybe you can role play some scenarios. Doesn't have to be something elaborate like playing the plumber. It could be as simple as pretending that someone is in the next room and you want to put on a show for them. That would add context for new lines.

We've tried roleplay in the past. She enjoys it fairly well, but has a hard time leading up to sex. I'm a bit the same way, I don't know really what to say or do until we're already fucking.

Who knew this shit was so complicated?

Inhouse graphic designer here.

My current job is not perfect and I am currently applying for agency, but it's good enough to gather working experience.

Best option is to get any design job, even if it's a shitty small print shop or a startup, and ideally work there. If you can't get it, next best option is to attend school, but focus on getting a good internship by the end. I had 2.5 years of art school where I was mostly dicking around, not taking shit seriously, getting drunk all the time and shit, but I got a nice internship which gave me more than all these 2.5 years in total.

Whatever you do, don't settle for non-field-related jobs unless it's to support school or strictly temporary means while applying for design jobs.

I didn't get good enough grades to get through to the next stage in my programme so I repeated two papers. I've never been questioned about it, but then again, I have excellent grades for the final stages of my degree and I've published research.

I wouldn't worry about it, but make sure you're able to explain it if you're asked. It's something that employers may want to know about.

the views being the thing thats socially unacceptable

>>18584355
>>18584357
Yeah, it's tough. I guarantee you that you know people with similar beliefs, it's just that everyone has to keep them quiet because society polices thought so much these days.

There are certain symbols that most normies won't understand that /pol/-tier dudes will. It's a risky endeavor, but you could try to display some of those symbols. The flag of the Northwest Front comes to mind: http://northwestfront.org/

Really just depends on your particular beliefs though.

Really not sure how to do it otherwise....

What views?

>>18584342
Bump

>>18584342
Yes, but then it's your life so from time to time you'll do selfish things. If you think you need to do this to get a closure, go for it

>>18584292
idk go look up ways to manipulate your dreams right before your sleep. I am no sleep expert but try looking up stuff for example taking vitamin B6 makes your dreams more vivid, so just try and see if you can find anything that can deter her from your dreams (even if it sounds a bit silly it is atleast worth the try.)

>>18584759
Holy shit I was actually directly taking b6 because I happened to have extra lying around, maybe that's it

>>18585057
Lol! out of all the examples I couldve gave out it had to be a direct one. Guess we will have to wait and see if it works.
