22F4M | Looking for something soft, real, and easygoing

I’m not entirely sure how to write this without sounding awkward, but I’ll try anyway. I’m 22F and I think I’m just looking for something soft and real with someone. Nothing rushed or intense, just a calm connection that feels easy and genuine. I’m the kind of person who gets attached to small things, remembers random conversations, and smiles at messages longer than I probably should. I overthink a little, care a lot, and tend to be gentler with people than I am with myself. I like quiet moments more than loud ones, late night chats, sharing little thoughts about nothing important, or sending each other small things from our day. I think I enjoy the in between parts of connection the most, the simple everyday feeling of someone slowly becoming part of your life. No expectations here, just the hope that I might meet someone and build something warm and natural over time. If you message me, just tell me something small about your day or something random that made you think.

I don’t know how to explain this one properly without sounding like I’ve lost it a bit, but this video genuinely left me uneasy in a weird way.

It starts off simple enough, a guy goes back to a restaurant he’s been going to for years. Same place, same memory, nothing unusual. Except when he gets there, nobody recognizes him. The owner doesn’t know him, the staff are different, and it’s like his entire history with the place just… didn’t happen.

This is the video I watched

From there it moves into this bigger idea that reality might not be as stable as we think. Not in a “sci-fi movie” way, but more like: what if memory isn’t reliable, what if timelines aren’t as fixed as we assume, and what if people sometimes notice small “errors” that don’t line up with how things are supposed to be?

It also brings in Philip K. Dick and John C. Lilly was both real people who seriously questioned perception and consciousness. Lilly especially went deep into isolation tank experiments and heavy psychedelic use, and came out with ideas that basically suggest reality might be influenced by something we don’t understand.

Now obviously, the normal explanation is: false memory, coincidence, psychological bias, pattern-seeking brain, etc. And that’s probably the correct answer most of the time. But I think what makes this video stick is that it doesn’t try too hard to prove anything. It just sits in that uncomfortable space where you start asking yourself how sure you actually are about your own memory of things.

Anyway, I’m curious how other people see this. Is it just the brain doing what it always does and filling in gaps or are some of these glitch stories more interesting than we give them credit for?

How reliable is it to order building materials online, especially custom stuff like railings?

So, long story short, my wife and I are rebuilding our indoor railings. It’s a typical wood railing, and we’re getting tired of it. The railing overlooks a large window, and we’re thinking about switching to glass railings to better match the aesthetics.

But we’re in a bit of a dilemma. We’re not that close to a Home Depot or any building supply stores, and that makes things a hassle. My car doesn’t have a tow hook, so I can’t tow anything, and the bed of the truck isn’t big enough to carry anything large either.

So we’re thinking it might be worth ordering online where companies deliver to your house. Even after factoring in the gas and time it would take to drive to a store and back, it might be more convenient to just order everything. But I’m a bit skeptical about it, because how do I know the sizes will be exactly what I need? Even if I specify exact measurements, I assume there isn’t much room for error with custom orders.

There are companies like BuyRailings, DekSmart, and Q-Railing, but I’ve never ordered anything construction-related online before.
