I have been trying out and looking for business ideas for a while now, implementing them until I realize I'm kind of just getting nowhere. I'm pretty well-versed in Computer Science, especially since I'm about to get my degree, so I've mostly just been working on more things related to software and stuff, but I'm open to anything, really. I want to make a business that will actually help people, that's not part of a business that might already exist. So now, I want to try asking around, starting here: what are some problems that you guys face, enough to affect you, that you wish had a solution, or if it exists, then it's not an actual good solution?

I know this is probably something many people already ask on here. I'm 20 and in college but after a couple times doing 9-5's and working a regular job, I really can't see myself doing it for the rest of my life. I was just wondering, for those that have a startup business in the US, how did you guys start it? Like I guess in the paperwork sense. I have an idea that I am in the works of implementing right now (I am a CS major for reference) and I am planning to launch it whenever I finish implementing it but I'm kind of scared I'm not going to know enough and somehow unintentionally break some law because I forgot to file something Lol. I just want to make sure I have even a vague checklist. I've done research but everywhere I look is adding or removing from what other sources say but in general, I just want to know how you guys might have done it if you can.

Hey yall it’s my birthday month and I was just wondering if anyone knows about any birthday rewards opportunities around the Duluth area since I’ll be in town for my birthday!

Hey guys- this has been something that’s been on my mind for a couple of years now. Ever since I was a little kid I’ve been a lover girl in the sense that I would always want a romantic life. I would (and sometimes still do) fantasize about my first kiss, holding hands, and a lot of my firsts. I’ve always loved reading and watching romance novels/shows and always hoped I would get to have that kind of connection and feelings one day that two lovers have.
But the only thing is, I’ve never had a crush on people (or if I have I’ve never realized it). I’m in my early 20s and I know I still have a lot of time but I’m honestly just really romantically lonely. I’ve found others very attractive, but not enough to start liking them. I also feel wildly uncomfortable around men my age too, especially when I find out they like me. Idk if maybe this has something to do with my past experiences of creeps liking me or seeing relatives be abusive to their wives but I really want to like someone. I want to have all my firsts and feel my heart pounding because of someone(idk if it’s truly like this but I want to find out), hopefully in my early 20s and one day get married but I’m terrified if I’m just incapable of having romantic feelings. Idk, I’ve tried researching about both but I just can’t tell if I’m just wildly cautious or if romance just isn’t an option in this life.

My parents are amazing. They will do almost anything, we go on vacations, they’ll spoil me and my sister a bunch. We’re pretty well off as a family too because of my parents. I am so grateful for everything they do but it’s also so annoying. Me and my sister have agreed that we will never have my parents full attention ever. My parents have very work demanding jobs especially because they both own their own businesses. Because of this, they are, of course, always working. And I mean ALWAYS. During my high school graduation, any time we’re on vacation, during my sister’s competitions, almost any time they have they’re always working and we’re all exhausted. I have talked to them, yelled at them, cried to them, done everything to convince them to stop working on the weekends or at least when we’re all supposed to have time dedicated to each other. They will always say stuff like “ya we need to” and “we’re working too much anyways” and stop for that DAY and then restart the next day. I understand a little bit of work over the weekend. Hell, I understand if u need to work 5-6 hours a day over the weekend for a business because it’s a lot of work but they are working all day, all weekend, whatever time they have on vacation they’re working, and I’m just tired.
I’m about to graduate college now and they’re still talking about how they need to work less because I’m going to have to move away for a job offer I have set but they still just talk and don’t do. I want to preface, again, I know owning a business is a LOT of work. I understand and respect them and the work they do but this is exhausting. The only time we ever have their full attention is once a month for 3-4 hours when my dad goes out for poker and we have the evening with our mom. But at this point, I don’t know what to do. I want to spend time with them more, we’ve even come to California for vacation just to spend time with each other because I’m moving in a week and we’ve been stuck in the hotel all day because my parents are working again. Idk, I guess I’m just venting because I don’t want to cry in front of my little sister from frustration.

Hey guys so ive been in a 1200 calories deficit since January and successfully lost 15 pounds since! Super proud of myself bc if was fs hard at first but now its a lot better. I’ve found my body to honestly just feel full after a day’s worth of 1200 calories, unlike before where I felt like I would be starving when I fell asleep. Here’s the problem. I’m about 109 pounds now (5 foot girl so I still want to lose some weight to lost the chubby belly and thighs) and I haven’t lost any weight for a month. I haven’t changed my eating at all and I’ve been using the lose it app to track everything. I researched about it and I think I’ve hit a plateau but I didn’t even know that was possible at a 1200 calorie deficit.
I’ve heard I should eat at my maintenance calories but I’m worried I’ll gain back all the weight I’ve lost if I eat more. Not to mention it’s lowkey hard for me to eat more bc of how easily full my body gets now. I would appreciate any advice!
