How do I meet introverted friends / bf in college?
Alternatively, how do I overcome my disdain for normies and loud people?

You don't. That's the hypocrisy of being a loner seeking a loner.
I'm torn, /adv/.
I live in Southern California. Certain circumstances will force me to move. As of right now, I have two choices:
1. Move across country.
Pros - I'd be close with family
Rent would be arguably cheaper
Cooler overall climate
Cons - Tornados
Having to get acclimated to a new environment
Probably won't find a job out there all things considered
2. Stay in California and move in with a good friend of mine and his mom
Pros - They're willing to let me live there rent-free in their spare room
Nice neighborhood, really close to the beach
Only living expenses I'd have to take care of is my car note, dental bill, and food
Cons - I'd be totally alone out here with no family
I'd STILL have to get a new job
The move would be a complete pain in the ass since they live about an hour away
I'm torn between the two, anons. What would you do? Anyone in a similar situation? Share.

jobs are easy to get
nobody will be okay with you living permanently rent free
you're putting a lot of emphasis on being apart from your FAMILY so sounds like you should go where they are
moving isn't a pain in the ass it's a thing you generally have to do very rarely

I'm sitting here at the steps of my apartment in here Mesa, AZ and it's like a hundred degrees outside. I'm unemployed because I was let go from my job. Thinking back I should've fought to keep my position. I'm currently smoking what's left of my boyfriend's Camel Turkish Royals and have earphones in my ears. Song that's playing? Yumi Zouma - December. Maybe you should listen and read this haha. Shit happens, I guess. Through all of this I've attempted to kill myself once with car antifreeze, didn't work. I have no money in my bank account ,and a high amount in credit card debt, I had a car once financed. It was a amazing car 2008 volkswagon jetta, dope ass nugget it was. At a small house party one night someone took it and crashed it while driving drunk. Just sitting here carless, cashless, about to loose the apartment I lived in for almost two years. Lost my phone as well, but my friend who has a run down life too because of Eypilypsy used his disability check to buy me a phone but can't pay for the bill... Funny how life is. I'm 22, and I guess pretty fucking stupid too. Looking to declare bankruptcy. I've done nothing to give the world, or better myself. I should be grown by now. Eh... Song change by the way new song Oncue - Your Own Supply. Why post this right? Why not run home to mom and dad. Mom's dead, dad is living in a trailer with no heat or air, or electricity, with no job out on the reservation. No family here for me, no one to help, bfs mom won't allow me shelter, and I can understand that. Community outreach is near impossible to achieve here. Everyone simply can't help, it's alot to understand. I wouldn't blame anyone else going through this shit to try and understand or explain either. I didn't have insurance on the car at the time, so no insurance check, instead the opposite. My internet is gonna be off in a couple days, my electric may go as well for non pmt. I'm planning on trying hard to reach out to community for jobs, assistance, something.

Meanwhile I feel like the country I'm in is going to hell. Trump is just starting shit, I don't know enough to talk about that, and not knowing that much is sad in itself. At the end of the day I just want to die. Struggling with dysthymia is not helping either. My heart cant keep quite though, whatever. I just wanna be numb. Nah I'd rather go through hell for myself, for everyone I haven't yet given to yet. I'd rather try and try. Hopefully by the end of the year I'll be happy. In my own small apartment, sorrounded by people I love

Feel like I had to get this down and put it somewhere, maybe I'm just being a little weakling about it.

Im in AZ too. There will always ups and downs, regardless of age. Take baby steps and decide, what you want to accomplish for next week. Then the next. If you write it down, stick to it. Life isn't roses or rainbows. But things will be better, I promise.
You have to make it work, no one else is going to do it.

Got this bite/rash in NYC three or four nights ago. Just wondering if anybody can help ID it. It is not actively itchy unless I scratch it, slightly swollen, very slight pain when poked. Could even be "under the skin" type acne.
Thanks

So I'm in a sticky situation. My ex girlfriend was driving my car one day and accidentally sideswiped a van, leaving a long scratch. So I figured insurance would be able to cover it. I'm a student with not much money saved up, so my mom has been paying the insurance. What I didn't realize was she had only payed for the next 6 months in January, and not the whole year as I thought.
So here I am without a legally driveable vehicle, or a job because I had been working as a delivery driver and had to quit, having to pay the $1000ish it will cost to repair this guy's van. The insurance company we were with won't take me back because of what happened, and I don't want to take out loans for what will at this point be really expensive insurance from another company. My mom isn't going to pay for more insurance for me because she's pissed off about this situation. So I'm looking at having to just walk places, invest in a bicycle once I get a job and can afford one again, or use my town's limited public transportation. I guess I can ask my roommate or a friend if I really need to use somebody's vehicle, but I don't want to bother people that much.
Idk, I realize this isn't the worst inconvenience to have in the world, but it's stressing me out. Classes start in two days. I live close enough to campus that that part of my life won't be a pain in the ass, but I need to figure out how I'm going to fit in time to buy groceries, look for a job, and do any other miscellaneous things I need to, on top of a pretty heavy course schedule this semester.
And I don't want to self pity too hard but I wanted to go to the gym again, and try to have more of a social life, try to invest in some hobbies, but now idk if I can make it happen. Fuuuuck. So I'm kinda bummed. Anyways do you guys have any tips?

How is a scratch making the car undrivable? Nigga I've seen cars on the highway with the styrofoam part of the bumper being held on one side with yarn and the other side with zip ties.
>>
Ive only had a car and license for a little over a year. Biked most of my life for commute to work. Get a good backpack, a big one that has multiple pockets and is waterproof. Be willing to get up early, bike far and be home late. Scheduling and gauging distance will also be important. Always have money for the bus if you are to tired. if you are serious about this, Get a really good bike. Don be cheap. Make sure it rides smooth, and find one that disassembles easy. Makes getting rides much better.
Also if you go to the gym regularly while biking, you'll get fit fast.
Dont be lazy, hope this helps. Good luck.

Last year I dropped out of high school and got my GED. There's this art school that I want to go to, and they're saying I need my GED transcript and my highschool transcript. GED transcript is no problem, but my highschool is saying that I will have to pay $4k for my transcript, and my family just doesn't have the money to pay it. Should I just try to work with the art school despite the fact that I don't have my GED (and if so, tips for how to proceed with that), is there some alternative option that I can substitute my highschool transcript with, or am I just shit out of luck?
I'm aware that I can go to community college and get my Associate's and apply to the art school as a transfer, but adding two extra years of math and science and shit is absolutely not worth it to me. I just want to learn the shit that's relevant to what I want to do, and get out. Yes, I know that's not exactly rational, but that's my stance on it.

Don't go to art school. What will it accomplish? I doubt it will open up job prospects. And one cannot be taught art don't you just have to practice it and develops their own style?
>>
>>18638878
I'm actually wanting to study journalism. But yeah, I could totally study all that stuff at home on my own, but my parents want me to go to college, and I don't want to have to take classes completely unconnected to my end goal (specifically math and science), so art school was a compromise we came to. Plus, I mostly write about art things like film and animation and such, so being able to learn in the same establishment as people going into that field seems really beneficial to me.

what the fuck? what country do you live in? nowhere in america will charge $4000 USD for a transcript.

Practice on the flashlight. Stop 30 seconds before you're going to bust, take a deep breathe and start going slowly again. Get used to knowing your limit and slowly increase how long you can last.

Referring to OP's pic. This is fine with me, because then any and all roles will reverse.
Being a male escort will be grand and will make grands. Be able to stay at home and get yourself a maid, which is the equivalent of a pool boy.
Sounds like the life for me.

So my sister broke up with her boyfriend.
treating her like shit, ignoring her texts and calls, etc.
thing is, we have some of his shit and vice versa.
we have stuff like clothing, passport and his court papers.
he has stuff like a comforter, couple sweatshirts and a his phone that my mother would like back as she still holds ownership of the phone.
we sent him one last mature message to set up a time on Sunday in which we could meet up and exchange shit.
hes not responding though. come Sunday my mother is gonna cut all ties once and for all.
removing him from the cellphone home group, blocking and deleting every contact associated in any form to him.
I guess in the end I cant stand the thought of a twig of weightless shit conning my sister like that and has the balls to get another bitch 3 days later.
Can Ontarian Police do anything if he refuses to give back anything?
and on to a more illegal approach, How much can I make selling his passport and SIN? (more like a don't poke the tiger when you're in its mouth)

>Can Ontarian Police do anything if he refuses to give back anything?
you could probably claim they were stolen, which would be dumb since he'll do it right back at you and could make into a nice legal proceeding instead of dropping the stuff off at a police station and letting him know
>and on to a more illegal approach, How much can I make selling his passport and SIN?
probably several hundred thousand dollars in fines/hospital bills or more after getting arrested/stabbed for selling that shit you fucking retard.

Give it back, Tyrone

>>18638681
You contact him. Calmly. Very calmly. "It's a shame you and my sister broke up. We have some of your stuff. I'll be glad to be the go-between and bring it over or meet you someplace with it, and you can give me the stuff of hers you have."
All very polite, very civilized.

If dreams are not a part of reality then why do they feel so real? Can we really say they are not?

Probably because performing actions and experiencing "stimulus" in a dream involves the same (or similar) brain activity as the real life equivalents. Science can't say that dreams aren't real but do we have any reason to believe they might be?
>>
In what way do you mean real? Do you think we get sent to another dimension or something? What sort of explanation do you have?
Hallucinations feel real to people. That doesn't mean they really exist outside of a person's head. Dreams are like that.
>>
When you dream, large quantities of Dimethyltryptamine is being dumped from your pineal gland, in the centre of your brain. This is the most potent hallucinogen known to man.
It is also a candidate for the type of brain chemical that causes the electromagnetic field available to our senses, to collapse into what we call reality. In other words, dreams are the way they are because you're tripping - but so is waking life. It's all the same, that's why it feels real. Trying to understand reality outside of your direct experience, is like trying to bite your own teeth.

So as the titles say, I have a little brother that is 16 at this time. Im not gonna tell my relationship with him but it could be sumarized as "cold".
He rarely speaks to me or wants to do things with me and the second I tell him he's done something worng he gets all defensive and sentimental. He is not actually autistic, he is something between autism and asperguer, doctors aren't clear on it but he has a dissabilty of 36% I believe.
So, just a few minutes ago I walked by his room, his door was open and his phone was on, displaying some sort of chat. I couldn't help but look and after digging a bit I found that he is gay, that he has probably done cybersex and that he has even gone out to the city to met what I think were strangers or internet friends.
He has never left our town but as of late he has started to go to the city to buy some japanese food in a tokyothemed shop or something.
I am happy to see that he can develop relationships with people and that even tho with us he seems pretty irrational and unstable he can express himself very well online and apparently can behave in public with other people, since I saw a chat where a guy he met with talked about how he was shy but nothing else, he didnt cut off just because of his autismo and even told him that it would be nice to meet again.
I am scared however that some pedo guy or someone is gonna lure him in without anyone knowing and that he is gonna get harmed or something. I don't even know if he knows about safe sex. I am a little shaken by all of this, just a half an hour ago I thought my little brother just had autism and would never leave his room.
Please help
TL;DR: My brother is gay, has some sort of autism and has been going on "dates" with strangers from the internet. What do I do?
I was thinking of talking to him tomorrow and tell him to be careful and stop flirting with older men.

Tell your parents to watch what he's doing and make sure he's not getting into trouble. Assuming they care
>>
>>18638658
They do care, but ages of dealing with this have taking a toll on them too. They just want to make sure that he can learn something useful to live by and that he likes, but they are almost all day out working. I have a big sister that's one age older than me and a little borther that is five now so there is a lot going on. My sister is a selfish bitch and doesn't care about him and oftne belittles him saying that he doesnt have a disabilty and is just faking. I try to do my best but is like talking to a wall most of the time. Ill talk to my parents tomorrow first thing but I dont see them doing anything more than removing his phone and internet acces or keys to the house or something. Besides, talking to my brother isnt easy. Ive treid many a times but most of them felt like he was just nodding so I left him alone and everything went above his head.
>>
>>18638647
you should really try to approach him, probably he just felt that neither of you (you or your parents) comprehend him. Try to not sound condescending and what >>18638658
just tell you may not work, if he has been having cibersex and all of that without anyone finding out, he would find a way to do it again. The best thing you could do is talk to him, being calm and trying to understanding him. The fact that he is gay shouldn't be a problem. Even if he just doesn't seem to pay attention, just show yourself as his friend and someone that he can rely.

Accept that your first attempts are going to be shit regardless of anything. Don't think they are not worth being written down though. Read them after several weeks, see what makes them shit, and try to eliminate these things in your next lyrics.

So /adv/ I started seeing this girl from work. I just moved to the area and she actually hit me up, asking me if I'd like to hangout once we got to know each other at work. Started as mostly a friendship, but she eventually told me she was really into me, but also she has a boyfriend in Sweden that is waiting for her.
She is currently living in the states, and they take turns visiting. Eventually though he wants to marry her and move her to Sweden.
I feel like I should drop it, but I really like her. I know she will probably cheat on me if she left him for me and it ever did get serious.. but I kind of want to go along with this for the ride.
pic sort of related, same body. Am I an asshole, /adv/? What should I do?
