I'm buying Chapo's theory that Trump gave her that instead of paying her. He probably bought it for Baron and Baron told him it sucked and he wants a desktop so Trump art-of-the-dealed his lawyer with it.
I really do think that made a difference. Don't get me wrong, it was always shitty, but I think the people who stuck around and keep commenting are mostly the ones so addicted to arguing online they downloaded the official reddit app to keep going, while the slightly less brain broken people just said fuck it.
Man I hate hearing about this. Matt really seems like a great dude. His wild passion and animated personality really make me smile. His pandemic twitch streams were a great source of comfort for me. I don't always comment on situations like this online, but I don't actually know anyone in real life who knows who Matt is and I just wanted to throw some love out there for him.
I actually agree that it's a completely different word from a cultural standpoint, and I don't find it offensive when an Australian says it most of the time. That said, there is nothing more obnoxious than hearing a reddit-brained American try to drop it to be edgy, thinking they sound worldy. It's a worse version of Americans saying "wanker", though that might actually be more lame.
Great tips already. Set and setting are the most important. I like to meditate a little beforehand and think about what a positive time I'm going to have and what great experience it will be. Also, spend as little time on your phone as possible. Even put your phone somewhere you won't be as tempted to use it. Be in the moment with your friend, interact with the world around you. Sometimes you might get the feeling you need to text or call somebody to tell them something you think is important... Wait until you're done tripping and see if you still want to. Take this time for yourself and the people you're physically near. There's plenty of time for the rest of the world later.
I found an old one not that long ago and was cracking up at some of the shit I wrote. I did not care for school lol.
