I’m on my third therapist right now and I have decided to stop going to this one. It seems like every time I talk to a therapist and vent about my issues, I feel like every single aspect of my behavior and personality is being criticized to an unfair and extreme degree. I never feel better after a session because I don’t like how I am talked to by them so I always leave in a worse mood than when I walked in there. The whole point of therapy is to feel better about yourself I thought. So how is someone I don’t even know being hyper critical of me supposed to help me out? I don’t like feeling bad about myself and I go to therapy specifically to not feel that way. So why is it that I always get therapists that seem destined to make me feel that way? Is this common for people trying to go to therapists or do I just have terrible luck?

It is a popular opinion that people who like to morally grandstand over others are annoying and fake, but to me, it’s a perfectly fine thing to do. There’s a lot of things you can use to try and feel superior over others in a moral sense that are perfectly valid. For example, if you still listen to Drake, I am a better person than you because I don’t listen to him. Because Drake is a pedophile, and by not supporting him that means I have better morals than you do

Both the kitchen staff things straight up racism is funny. Is this common in most kitchens? I don’t expect a kitchen crew to be completely politically correct and progressive but as someone who considers themself to be pretty progressive some of the jokes I hear from my coworkers is disturbing. I even had one coworker drop the n word (with a soft a) as a “joke” and it actually bothered me. I had to remind him that if he was in public and there were actual blacks around, they would possibly rob him or even shoot and kill him, but he told me “lighten up it’s just a joke”. I’m just trying to chill out and wash dishes and I’m sick of it! If only I could bring headphones so I could drown out the comments I hear regularly. Even my girlfriend who is one of the waitresses at my restaurant agreed with me that she’s sick of it. If she wasn’t working with me I probably would have quit by now because being around her all day is just awesome

I don’t listen to her, but this tells me that the world is healing. From what I can gather Olivia Rodrigo is a good person with strong morals, which is the type of person I always strive to be.

Drake however, is a terrible human. Even besides him being a pedophile, his music is just flat out bad. It disappointed me so much that people are suddenly okay with listening to Drake again but apparently he has competition now. I hope she can continue having a bigger album than him this year. While her music isn’t my thing, I might have to start streaming her just because I support her so much as a human.

No it’s not. Drake hate is the most valid form of hate there is. When Drizzy fanboys try to act like the hate is forced, they’re deflecting very valid criticisms.

I remember when Drake first got popular, and he was everywhere. Everyone loved him except for me. I had people at my school making fun of me for hating Drake to the point where I had to pretend to like him in order to fit in. But all that changed in 2024 where I was no longer afraid to speak my mind after Kendrick exposed him for the type of person he is.

There are many criticisms of Drake I find valid. Such as his boring raps, his bloated tracklists, and his sketchy personal life. I find listening to Drake to be a huge moral failing especially after the beef with Kendrick that should’ve realistically killed his career. Which I thought it would at the moment, until Iceman dropped and suddenly it was cool to like Drake again which really disappointed me.

Although Drake has made a comeback yet again, I still do believe a lot of the criticism made against him is valid. I’m happy to be a Kendrick fan. I chose the right artist to stan. And I’ll never stop expressing my criticisms of Drake or continuing the battle Kendrick started.

THEY NOT LIKE US

I’m sorry reddit but now is time for me to stop drinking. I had an incident last night that convinced me.

Basically I went out with a few coworkers after work, and a song off Drake’s new album came on. I apparently was so drunk I started ranting about my opinion of Drake: that his music is bad, that he is a pedophile, and that anyone that listens to him is a bad person. Apparently me being super confrontational and calling my coworkers bad people really pissed them off and I regret that. I should try having a nicer attitude.

So because of that, I will now quit drinking. I’m so sorry Reddit, but I hope you can understand. I am just a different person when I drink and it’s time to change things

It’s insane how long his “career” has lasted despite him being bad for so long. And that’s not even ignoring the pedophilia thing. Every song by Drake sounds AI generated and that’s not including that he was never good in the first place. He was always a bad singer and rapper who pretends like he’s from the hood even though he is a rich light skin named Aubrey who calls himself Drake to make himself seem more gangsta. You’re not a real black gangsta person Aubrey, we don’t buy it! I heard a song off the new album at a bar last night and even while drunk I thought “wow, people really like this garbage?”. I can safely say that his music appeals to the lowest common denominator. Like Taylor Swift for men. His career should’ve been over when Kenny exposed him (THEY NOT LIKE US) but it’s still going and I just don’t get it

Was anyone else bothered by what this line implied? It implies that Kendrick only has fans because of white kids having white guilt and I think that’s very disrespectful. There’s so many more reasons to be a fan of his.

For reference, yes I am white. But the reason I love Kendrick isn’t because of my skin color. I love him because he is the greatest rapper of his generation. And unlike Aubrey, he is a man of morals. He is the only rapper brave enough to fight the good fight, who will call out Aubrey (not going to call him by his stage name because I don’t respect him) for what filth he is inflicting on this generation. The filth being the lack of moral standards; that we should ignore an artists personal life because they make good music (which in this case, isn’t even that good).

So no, I don’t listen to Kenny because of my white guilt. I am honestly so offended by that song blowing up and me having to hear that line everywhere. And even worse, delusional people agreeing with it. It makes me so angry

He is a pedophile and should have lost his career after Kendrick exposed him. It makes me so angry that his album is such a chart hit. I’ve been asking friends of mine how they feel so comfortable streaming music from a literal pedo and they’re all mad at me. I’ve even kept a few friends based on my willingness to point out how weird and wrong it is that he is still popular

Think about it: clearly people aren’t going to stop listening to Drake on their own despite the fact that he is a pedo and his fame is bad for society for that reason, so why not hypnotize people into not supporting him? By doing that, one less horrible person would have a platform and we would never hear his music played anywhere ever again. Maybe we could do this during an event guaranteed to have a ton of viewers, like the FIFA World Cup final? That would probably get a billion viewers and convince a billion people to not listen to Drake’s music anymore! Thoughts?

I don’t get why this is such a controversial take. If someone has autism that means that they have trouble with social situations. Meaning every once in a while you’re bound to say something rude to people even if you’re high functioning. So why do we say “autism isn’t an excuse to be a jerk”? It just seems like you can’t control whether or not you know what you’re saying is disrespectful or not. You’ just have to be more understanding here

The only positive is that I can now say I have some pull as a dude who washes dishes with a hot waitress. But it’s gonna be awkward seeing her every day so I figure I might have to get a new job as a dishwasher somewhere else since I don’t have much other skills. Unfortunately with the economy and job market it’s hard to know how my job search will go. Does anyone here know what the market is like for dishwashers right now? I am in northeastern Ohio/Cleveland area for reference

Fuck you for streaming your favorite pedophile rapper. Your idol should have never gotten a single stream again after Kendrick exposed him for being who he is, but NOOOOOOOOOO, someone making easily replaceable music is more important! Because of his popularity and you ignoring his personal life, he is now free to be a pedophile as much as he likes! Which if you know Aubrey, it’s EVERY WAKING MOMENT OF THE DAY. You are normalizing pedophilia by streaming his new album. It should have not even hit the charts but NOOOOOOO, it’s the top album in the country! FUCK YOU DRAKE FANS. YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN CHRIS BROWN FANS, RKELLY FANS, AND EVERY OTHER FANBASE OF A PERSON WHO LACKS MORALS AND YOU ARE ALL HORRIBLE PEOPLE. IF YOU STILL STREAM DRAKE, STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME. I AM WAITING FOR THE DAY AN RKELLY STYLE DOCUMENTARY COMES OUT AND CAUSES HIM TO END UP IN JAIL WHERE HE RIGHTFULLY BELONGS!

There’s my vent. You may think it’s a bit much, but people ignoring Drake’s personal life has me feeling a bit defeated

I’m on my second dishwashing job and it’s easily the best job I’ve ever had. I just started talking to this awesome girl working as a waitress at my restaurant and I’m in love. Problem is, this job doesn’t seem to be a great way to make money which is important nowadays considering the economy. I love my dishwashing job but I’m wondering, is there a way to make good money off it? I currently am paid $20 an hour for reference

Every guy nowadays claims that there is a male loneliness epidemic and that it’s not their fault women don’t want them, but what if we gave everyone a girlfriend paid good money to stay with them that has the option to leave at any time? That way those guys can learn that if a woman is being paid to date them and still hates them, maybe they are the problem and need to work on themselves! I think it’s a crazy idea but it could possibly work

I just read that the highest performing single from his 90 minute slopfest of an album only reached the top 70 of the hot 100 and is probably going to fall off the charts quick and I hope this means his career will be dead soon. Between his awful music and his history of violence against women he does not deserve to have the career he has had for so long. Someone needs to let Chris Breezy know that he’s not a real black gangster person for being violent towards women and Frank Ocean, he’s no tough guy and is a sad pathetic little excuse for a human. His career should’ve been done once the Rihanna thing started but people make too many excuses for him

Every modern Drake song off his new ablums sounds like someone typed “generic Drake song” into an AI bot and released it as a song. It’s soulless. His new music is all him whining about the beef. He’s also fake. He pretends to be one of the gangster blacks on some of his songs even though he’s a former child star named Aubrey. He can’t sing, or rap. Never mind the fact that he is a pedophile as a cherry on top (THEY NOT LIKE US). His music is so bad. When I saw that he dropped three albums I thought who would ever take the time to listen to him but apparently he has an audience still. Can people really not see through how fake his music is?
