  2.  @RobertMJohnson  my interpretation is that he believes those who followed the traditional academic route are more likely to have a fear of failure. This is because the path is already there for us and we just have to follow it. We get anxious and scare when we stray from that path. This is what I think he meant

  7. I am starting to think that maybe self worth naturally comes from external forces then internal. How can we have a healthy relationship with ourselves if we don't even know who we are? For example, you can't critique your own art and say that you did a good job. Someone else has to do that. You learn from other people's critique and you improve as you go, no? So the idea of us having a healthy relationship with ourselves first is weird. I don't think that is even a correct way to even have a relationship. We need to get in a relationship, mess up, get criticized and learn. Then use those experiences to improve our relationship with the next person. How would you do all of this by yourself?

  8.    if i were you, i would give up on that. narcissism has been an epidemic in asia before that internet. it's deeply rooted in our culture now so it doesn't matter if they are aware of it because nothing will be done and they'll just look at you like "what is the problem?"

  15. What would corporate do to screw it up? They're just going to use it to help us edit the genes we want to keep or removed. I think the people will start requesting weird gene editing and because the corporations want money, they'll just do what the people say. I don't see how they will be the one to ruin it. It seems more like the people will be the one to ruin it.

  19.  @veyger1970  i'm sorry but are you implying that good relationship for a happy life only applies to the middle and upper class and not below?

  21. I like how you're talking about how lonely you are due to the death of your friends and your husband dementia, and everyone in the comments is like "wow, you're 87!"
