I’ve asked my family and close friends this but they’re the “are you high? Lmao” kinda people just because i wanna have interesting conversations and questions so im hoping for a detailed scientific answer. But like when you play a song or movie or anything in your head that wasn’t from an outside source, are you using your ears to process that sound? I feel like the answer is obviously yes i just don’t understand HOW your ears process it and want answers. Any answers would help! Also sorry if this doesn’t necessarily fit in the type of questions posted here.

This might sound super corny but I’m a virgin but I know when I lose my virginity I will become an eater; I can feel it in my soul I was born to be one. There’s one problem though: I’m autistic and I can’t STAND the smell of metal, especially when it linger on my fingers. Recently I’ve seen joking TikToks saying Vag tastes like iron or like metal or like even wires. I’m assuming the taste is different between every woman but is the general taste like metal-esque? If it is this is heartbreaking for me cause I want to pleasure a woman very badly but at the same time getting over my biggest sensory issue is gonna be a huge obstacle for me when the time arrives. If anyone else has this problem please lmk how you solved this, thanks in advance.

I’ve been seeing horrible news everyday about this country and raging global conflicts about the world, and it’s looking like it’s never getting better; just neutral at best. I try to balance out the bad news by appreciating every good thing in my life and doing things I enjoy and taking my mind off politics, and now I’ve basically just become a gymcel. I also just saw a thing that says the draft is coming in December and males aged 18-26 are getting automatically drafted? I ain’t doin that shit but knowing this administration they’d find some way to make you. I’d rather die so ima have to come to terms with that. I truly believed that at one point there was opportunity for a revolt or revolution of some sorts to happen and we could change the country for the better but every time there had been an event that should realistically spark one (either financially or physical revolution) mofuckas are talking about Love Island and whatever else is popular and not the people ICE is shooting dead in the street. Not to mention some people just always say “Jesus will save us!” When, respectfully to a degree, that man has had many-a-chance to come save the human race from atrocities and just let it happen; so even if that dude is real, I doubt he’s comin to save us. His followers seem to just use him as this device that they rely on for all bad things happening to them, and since they actually believe that they don’t see what’s happening as a major issue cause they just think that he’ll solve everything in the end (even though people are losing their lives in the process?!). I’m saving up money to go see a psychologist (trying to get evaluated for autism, maybe ADHD and OCD while I’m at it) and I’m worried that they’ll say I have too much anxiety and need to be medicated but like, I feel like if you’re NOT freaking out even a little right now in the US, YOURE the weird one. All it’s seeming like for now is if that draft thing does come true by December and I’m forced to fight a war for Israel ima go out some loser virgin that goes out before I’m even deployed into the battlefield. How are yall coping with what’s going on in the world right now?

Preferably R&B and ones with more chill beats like Break of Dawn, Brown Sugar, or I Wanna Be Down, that’s the general vibe I’m goin for. Of course I’m open to any recommendations as well, I’ve only listened to like 5 RnB albums that fill that love making sound I’m goin for.

Nope is my favorite Jordan Peele movie of the three, I love everything about it from the parallels and symbolism with the animals and eye contact to the spectacle of that alien, that whole third act is some of my favorite moments in movies as a whole. However, everytime i talk about it my dad says he just doesn’t like it; like not even it’s his least favorite of the Peele trilogy, he straight up doesn’t like the movie. I also remember hearing it had mixed reactions when it came out, but I’ve heard nothing but positive stuff about it since. What’s yalls opinions on Nope and where does it rank for yall in the Peele trilogy?

My little brother has finally wanted to get into weightlifting and I’ve never been more proud! We can’t currently get him a gym membership so right now we’re working with:

A walking cane (this is currently our barbell)

2 5lb dumbbells

2 8lb dumbbells

2 10lb dumbbells

2 backpacks to add the dumbbells together for some workouts

Some chairs to act as a bench

Some resistance bands (trying to see how I can incorporate them)

As of right now I can get him to do some curls, some overhead extensions, lateral raises, lying chest flies, shoulder/upper chest press, goblet squats, stiff-legged deadlifts, “barbell” rows, and a dumbbell pullover. The only exercises I want to find a way to incorporate are a form of a pulldown and maybe some leg extensions and hamstring curls, but I know these are all wishful thinking. Does anyone have a makeshift version of these exercises that can be made with this equipment? Any help or even just some motivation I can share to my little brother would help. Thanks in advance!

Sometimes I’ll come across a TikTok of people eating some YUMMY looking food and I get excited cause I wanna see people review food and see if it lives up to its visual rating in my head. The only problem is 99% of these food reviewers have the mic seemingly connected to their larynx and I can hear the saliva in every chew and they have the audacity to look me dead in the eye while doing it. This also applies for me whenever I hear anyone chewing but it’s ESPECIALLY appalling to me in these videos, like I personally just don’t understand how people can find that sound enjoyable. Am I in the minority with this or do yall also dislike the whole chewing sound?

First time cooking lentils tomorrow and I lm hearing mixed results on if you have to soak them or not before eating. I’ve heard they digest easier(?) if you soak em but like are they still edible if I eat them by just cooking them? I don’t care if they’re like crunchy or not I just wanna eat them. Also do they go well with proteins? I was planning on eating them with like chicken or maybe a fish like tilapia or tuna. If anyone has advice for me any would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I’ve heard the second set of the concerts during the tour will be songs from any era. I don’t know if it’s true but if it is I wanted to ask yall about certain of my favorite songs that I’d love to see live and their relation to the band.

Window Paine

Rhinoceros

Quiet

Frail and Bedazzled

Dross

The End Is the Beginning Is the End

Cherub Rock

Geek U.S.A.

Doomsday Clock

The Chimera

I’m relatively new to being a fan of the band so I figured maybe there’s a history of these songs and whether the band likes performing them or not so I was hoping anyone has stories or information on that. I understand some of these are somewhat “deep cuts” so they may not even be considered to be performed but I figured there was no harm in asking.

Apologies if this isn’t the right community to post this in, this is the one I could find that best fit my questions. I’m about to get my first job as a stocker for a store; it’s one of those kinds of stores where there’s shelves of product that stack to what seems like the ceiling and you need people on a forklift to get the palettes down for you. I’m getting hired as a stocker and, while I know it seems like a relatively simple job, I need very specific instructions on how to do stuff so I can excel. From what the manager that interviewed me told me, we look at a tag that the product is at and it should say the number of products per “unit” and then we unbox it and shelve the product. We also put the stuff closest to the expiration date (forgot to mention I’m working with food products) and when that’s expired we call someone up and they dispose of it; once the expired products are disposed of we move the next closes item to the front (the manager said it’s called “facing up”. From what I remember that’s all there was to it, but I’m really nervous cause it’s gonna be my first job and I wanna appear competent for my first week. If anyone has worked a job like this, is working a job like this, or has any advice in general I’ll take what I can get. Thanks in advance!

I just got my first job and it’s sounding like I won’t be out until 9:00pm most days, are there any gyms that have GOOD equipment (more than just techno gym and hoist machines) and are open late into the night/early morning? They don’t have to be commercial gyms either, I’ll look into any suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Ik it’s completely random as well as broad but I needa find this. The commercial is recent, I was seeing it not even a month ago on YouTube. I believe the medicine being advertised ended in like a “sky” or adjacent sounding? It’s one of those generic ads about a medicine you’ve never heard of that has more side effects than benefits but the only thing that made me remember the commercial is that 3/4 of the way through the ad there’s an older black lady and she’s dancing at a party outside. That’s all I remember so if anyone can help me it’s a blessing, honestly. Thanks in advance if anyone can help 🙏
