Is it really possible to get a webdev job without a degree? I have recently started working on an app made in reactjs that's almost done, but other than that I have nothing to show off. What kind of things do employers look for?
yes its possible
>>18642226
Webdev? Like web programming? If so, I'm 16 and I know how to code PHP and HTML. Basic stuff and other stuff that aren't so basic.
Met a girl at a party last night, we kissed and cuddled and everything. We really seemed to click and she gave me her number at the end of the night.
Today I followed her and her friend on social media and sent a text to the girl. Everythings been really quiet, kinda think I'm getting ghosted but they followed me back.
Wat do
>>18642219
be patient. nothing you can do now. in fact, you've probably done too much too fast already imo
theres this thing where going too far the first time you met works against you as she might regret going too fast, feels easy and female shit like that.
People always read way too much into everything and the truth is that no one really knows except her.
My mom has ruined my life I am now 32 and still live at home I have a disease thats not serious enough to get disability but serious enough that I can't get a full time job. I have been miserable since I was 14. All the counseling and meds don't do anything I have a toxic relationship ship with my mom and I need to get out of this house and never talk to her again but I don't know where to go. I live in Boston.

check craigslist, you should be able to make 800+ per month working part time. You're going to be miserable and move back with mommy fast though.

Move to Lawrence where the housing is cheaper, my dude
Where is your dad?
If he's not in your life, it's probably too late.
anyone know about drinking coffee on a budget?
currently using instant coffee daily but thinking about buying a cheap french press so i can enjoy real coffee for once.
how much more expensive is it to make coffee with a french press than it is compared to with instant coffee, or even a coffee maker? thanks /adv/
I'm poor as fuck but make room for coffee. Bad coffee ruins my day.
Just go to some thrift stores to shop around for supplies. Best idea is to buy a reusable filter to go over your cup and boil filtered water to a temperature appropriate for brewing.
Try and find a local grocery store having coffee in bulk. In poor areas there are usually grocery stores buying food that mainstream stores wanted to get rid of.
You can ask someone you know to pick up coffee for you at Costco or some other store of that kind.
Look for coupons in your Sunday paper or on the Internet.
If none of this is possible, opt for Maxwell House and decent creamers and sweetners.
>>18642209
French press is cheap. Maybe 10 bucks for the press, you use about 30 cents worth of coffee a pot. Pretty much the best coffee for the lowest price possible.
You don't even need a machine or a french press. People have had coffee without either for ages. Get ground coffee and a reusable filter.
Get a saucepan. Bring two cups of water to boil. When it boils, turn off the heat and immediately add two tablespoons of the ground coffee Cover with a lid and let it sit and steep for about five minutes, give or take depending on your preferred strength. All the grounds should have sunk to the bottom.
Pour it through the filter into a mug snd you have your coffee.
Hi /adv/
Me and my gf have been together around 3 yrs. We almost broke up due to her untreated depression getting so bad. After she went on the medication for it a year ago, she gained 50% of her weight and is borderline obese now. There aren't any signs of her wanting to lose weight and I'm not attracted to her. I'm also in my early 20s and hormones are going wild. What do I do? First and only sexual relationship ever, btw.
Thanks
Depression is fake and gay.
Got to fix those dopamine receptors by going outside and being a human being.
Dump her.
>>18642202
that might be a little insensitive...
>>18642289
You said it first dumb fuck.
>not attracted to her
>hormones going wild
Idiot
>I've ruined all the chances I've had with every girl that's ever liked me.
>I recently chose to quit a good job just because I hate waking up and getting ready almost every day, employers won't take me back.
>I didn't stand up for myself during my hs years.
>I'm in my early 20's and still not sure what to major in if I ever go to college.
The list goes on and on.
I honestly feel like a complete loser.
How can I stop fucking up ?
>>18642197
You'll eventually reach that point where you fucked up so much that you'll stop yourself from being a fuck up. You anon like everyone else will eventually see the "paterns" in life.
>>18642263
Yeah. Im on the last leg of my 20s, and i feel this. Starting to see patterns in my fuckups. With seeing these patterns comes the ability to understand how to manipulate them to your benefit.
Dont ask how because fuck if i know
I need some normie hobbies that aren't anti-social. I'm a programmer, gamer, and reader in central Kansas and those aren't social hobbies.
Help me aspies, you are my only hope.
Just need ideas for hobbies that are social from fellow aspies
Photography/music/sport
>>18642275
Music? As in an instrument? Hmm
I have insomnia and I'm so afraid of death I can't sleep.
I am so afraid of dying. I am so terrified. I don't want to die. I don't want others to die.
I can't accept it. I can't accept it. I can't accept it.
There is nothing wrong with death. And if you die your sleep, you would never know lol.
Don't worry, the singularity will soon be upon us and death will cease to exist
>>18642150
Have you tried reading about near-death experiences? It's an interesting topic, and maybe death isn't the final oblivion you might think it is.
We were gonna meet up, but then I found out she's been traveling around with a "friend"
Is the whole helium tank thing the most effective way of killing myself?
they put oxygen in those things now to keep people from dying
my plan is to trailer hitch my neck to a tree, then shoot myself off so im hanged and banged
>>18642133
You kill yourself over a girl?
fucking cuck
Is the answer really "dont think about it" for everything?
>>18642131
No.
>>18642139
Then why shouldnt i kms? If doeant matter in the end
>>18642153
I have no idea what you're talking about, but you probably shouldn't kill yourself because it's an incredibly selfish and cruel thing to do to the people that love you
How can I get over my absolute hate for fat, and fat people? I understand the difference between "thick" and "I'm a fat shit that has a poor sense of self care and health", but when I see someones thick legs, or anything other than a flat belly I get repulsed. I'm a dick to strangers that I shouldn't be and I"m passing on sex with people that want it.
Several years back I hooked up with a thick girl in process of letting herself go and her genital hygiene was one of the worst things I've experienced on this Earth. I told her this, and the minutes following of SJW "how could you think that" "You are just body shaming me" without taking into consideration I was literally repulsed by the state of stuff. Ever since, when I meet a woman, unless she is physically fit I just fucking cold shoulder. I see plenty of legit slightly thick, just slightly pudgy women that obviously care very much about self care and health, and I'm sure things down under aren't as bad, but this experience has scarred me. Both in her hygiene was, and how fucking nasty she turned immediately.
Not sure what I"m looking for. I think I want to find an actual nice clean and presentable pussy on a larger women to dispel my fears, but legit don't think it exists.
Why do you care so much about other people? Just focus on yourself and the women you DO want to date. No one's asking you to date fat women if you don't want to.
>>18642103
Other people produce my food and fix my roads and drive my vehicles and bring shit from around the world to my doorstep if I ask them to. People caring about other people is what allowed all this to happen.
A little less idealistic, I guess I've cracked under the pressure from all the fat fucks around me that seem to hate anyone, and am not using that word lightly, that tries to be better than them. They take it as personal insult.
Too many times I've been put down by someone with "less" than me ( in the context of health, someone fatter) because they find it unfair I am 1) able to spend time on myself and my goals, 2) Choosing myself over THEM, clearly the more important person here because they "are suffering more, check your privilege". I've let it in, and it seems the only emotion I have in response is hatred and bitterness.
>>18642100
>How can I get over my absolute hate for fat, and fat people?
Who gives a shit, honestly. Seems like our collective energy could be spent on better things than counseling some miserable twat who uses one stinky pussy to justify pointlessly hating and judging strangers.
Hello /adv/. I never post on this board but I felt like I needed to. Anyways, very lately I've been having short term memory loss. I will admit I have been stressed because school is coming back up, but this is kind of weird. It has been names and certain words or my actions I would be forgetting a lot but mostly certain words and other's names. I'm quite young (I'm 18) and I have no clue why this is happening. It seems like it's getting worse and worse every single day. I haven't been having any other symptoms besides a tiny bit of dizziness. I don't know if you guys answer any type of advice like this but I just want to know what could be wrong with me.
Have you smoked pot at all? Because that will certainly do it.
Also stress makes the body and mind act in funny ways so I wouldn't be surprised if it was related to that too.
>>18642431
No, I don't smoke pot. I don't do any drugs
>>18642073
I would go to the doctor, hopefully it's nothing but brain stuff at that age should be checked out just to be safe.
The dizziness is just random or is it triggered by something like getting up too fast or being on an empty stomach?
The girl iv been seeing lately started hanging out with me after work and everything is going fine except that she, for whatever reason is silent as a graveyard.
Im strugling to keep conversation between us and on multiple times we ended up in dead silence which annoys hell out of me and make things and me feel so uncomfortable.
Honestly im not that talkative but in her presence i seem like some kind of high school gossip girl.
I tryed talking with her about it and again, we ended up just staring at each other.
Af far as i know she doesnt have any traumatic experiance or that she doesnt like me, so at the end i only suspect that she realy doesnt have anything to talk about or her opinion is usualy same as mine just little bit different.
Its very weird and im finding myself thinking about avoiding her and moving on. Is it right thing to do or i can try something and if it fails i have legit reason to ditch her.
> the girl is nice looking btw
most people are emotional in some way
>>18643074
sorry pressed post too early...to continue:
I would try to find some way of engaging her without drawing attention to the fact that she is very quiet. I am a quiet person and I prefer people not to get irritated by me not having much to say. Besides, the quiet ones are always the most interesting
I have long black hair and wanna cut it short but don't know what style to cut it to, help? I'm a dude
>>18642021
crew cut of you don't mind looking tool-ish. I rock a simple sway back myself. Or bring it war length and let it fall where it may. those are the three cuts I would recommend that are easy to adjust later if you don't like it.
my adv is to >>>/fa/
>>18642886
Fag
>>18642917
Somehow even faggier
Ask the fucking people you are paying to do your hair, those people have trained for it, they have seen it all, they know what they are doing. They'll likely be able to tell you what will and will not work with your hair/head and can give you plenty advice. Aside from that they are likely gay as well, so there is no need to wait for more faggot advice from here, go get it IRL.
>tfw birthday coming up
>i have no friends
>spend every birthday like it's a normal day
>do nothing special for it
what do I tell people if they ask how I spent my birthday? or what gifts I received from family and friends?
>>18641997
Nobody will ask, anon
>>18642009
people have asked before, not about gifts, but if I did anything special
>>18642022
get ahead of the game. contact the people who would normally ask you what you did for your birthday and invite them to your house for a party, or to a restaurant for a meal, or to laser tag to play laser tag.
