Hardness of the Sexbots?

The one by me is suuuper cramped, so no full food court, but they do have a little cafe area. I've never eaten there because I'm vegan and the menu is not, but I look sadly at it every time I pass it because Korean is one of my favorite cuisines.

I love H Mart, but fair warning, anything you can find at Target or a regular grocery store is probably overpriced at H Mart. One of the hot sauces I like was 50% more there, my mom got apples and they were like 3x the price of the same ones at Target, and so on. I only buy the specialty stuff I can't get anywhere else now.

Why the hell is his employer doing an investigation and not the police?

Ha I'm about to turn 40 and same. I got married in 2013. No one brought any nerf guns. ☹️

Man, I was great at tests and history was my favorite subject. I'd love for a history quiz to be the thing I was worried about instead of like, the election and global warming and shit. Don't get me wrong, you couldn't pay me to go back to high school, but at least I could affect the outcome of a quiz, you know?

Maybe not by population, but Idaho has a huge problem with white supremacists. The Aryan Nation was founded there, and there's a reason all the bigots in eastern Oregon want to secede and join Idaho.

It doesn't have to be justified to you, but it's clearly worth it to some people. My most expensive sets are <$300, but having built a fan design, I can tell you the official ones are so much better that there's not even a comparison. The construction is miles better and I've never had a missing brick in the dozens I've built. People are allowed to spend their money the way they want.

The lesbian flag makes me wish I was a lesbian, so I get it. The ace flag is kind of meh, imo.

It's really dependent on the field. I started a job as a temp and then proved that I was smart enough to do other things, so I got hired permanently, but it wasn't in the field I was studying, just something I ended up enjoying. There are some jobs where that won't cut it. Whatever your dream job is might be one of those, but I don't really believe in dream jobs, so I was open to stuff that seemed kind of weird on the surface. I learned a lot about what mattered to me in a job doing that.

I'll second what another commenter said about talking to a doctor, because it does sound like this might be more than just disinterest. That said, drop out. Get a job and work for a while. Try different things. The path we think we want in our late teens and early 20s is often very different from where we end up, and that can be a good thing. I finally quit trying to force myself to finish my degree when I was 22 and I wish I'd done it much sooner. I did eventually go back and get a different degree in my 30s, but in the meantime, I worked at jobs I never expected to find interesting and learned a ton while building a solid resume. College is great, but it's not for everyone, and it's definitely not for everyone at "college age."
