I just want reality shows where people meet up and learn about their backgrounds. I don’t want any competition shows.

I’m 22 years old and currently watching The Real World on YouTube. They don’t have the season on Paramount.The channel cut the commercials off but there’s sneak peak of TRL and Spankin’ New. I had this daydream where I was born 20 years earlier, I‘ll watch MTV all day and working at Blockbuster lol.

I started listening to the podcast last week because they did a series on The Odyssey and I love Greek mythology. Then I started listening to The Beatles series because I love The Beatles and Conan O’Brien. I’m currently listening to The Troubles because I like learning about Irish history. What are some recommendations for a newcomer?

I’m a 22 year old American and obviously I clearly have no involvement with it. I started getting into Irish history because I love the landscape there. I’ve started reading Irish literature like Sally Rooney and Claire Keegan. For me, The Troubles reminds me of the Civil Rights Movement in America. As my relatives did experienced racism from the KKK and was apart of the Great Migration. I’m just interested in conflicts where it’s citizens fighting against an oppressive government. I also love hearing other people’s experiences during these conflicts.

P.S.

There is a great podcast called Dear Derry. Its host is from Derry and her uncle was one of the victims of the infamous Bloody Sunday attack.

I (22F) grew up as a failure to thrive kid and always been underweight. My parents took me to nutritionist and everything. I have no eating disorders or anything. Been bullied about my weight. Three years ago, I was in the worst mental state and I couldn’t eat because of my anxiety. Now my anxiety has lessen and I started to take care of myself. I’m finally at a healthy weight! But it doesn’t feel normal? I feel like my body is boxy and not the stick skinny. It just something that I’m not used to, me being healthy. How can I fix this?

I feel like I’ve missed out on call in radios since I’m only 22 years old. I’m okay with any genre but bonus points if it’s a paranormal show!

This is the most kooky post I made on here. I am a fully believer of manifesting. I believe that having a high vibration is key to receiving what you want in life. Fully believing and accepting that everything is possible. Removing your self worth from your want and realizing that you’re an existing person. I just feel like social media being so addictive to negativity is a way to keep people down. It is a known fact that the algorithm brings negative or controversial opinions on top on Instagram or even TikTok. Even reports that Facebook or Meta targeted young girls with their algorithm to be insecure or suicidal. Bots in every comment section on social media. The best way to live is striping all of this.

I (22F) am currently looking for a part-time job and still live at my parents' home. I find it annoying that my mom (61) and my dad (72) constantly ask for money. Especially with my dad since he hasn't paid me back. I think he has a lottery ticket addiction as he has packs of tickets lying in the house. My mom does pay me back. My extended family members gifted me money since I recently graduated from college. I have like $700, and it got drained down to $15. My mom felt bad about it and now she’s giving me an allowance. Today, my mom asked me if she could borrow my money. I just told her no. And I feel kinda bad about it because they use the money to pay the bills. But I’m pissed off that they drained my bank account and I feel like I’m kinda foolish for trusting them. What should I do?

So the UEFA chose to boycott from FIFA and I have no clue about the significance of that. I do want to learn more about the history of soccer since there’s obviously politics behind it. I never been invested in a sport before by the way. Is there any media that delves into the history of soccer?

I’m like never going to post on Reddit ever again. I can’t make a question on some subreddit without someone telling me that it‘s embarrassing or someone saying “I need to leave this subreddit”. Like fucking leave, nobody is holding you hostage 😭. I seriously don’t give a fuck that I look like a fool. It’s always something snarky. Like I made a positive appreciation post for this store that originated from Europe and I used the international name. Then I made an inference of a store in America that has a similar name. I got 100 downvotes like you known downvoting isn’t the dislike button right? It’s for hiding comments 😭. They always calling me a yank for not knowing things and being snarky. Like shut the fuck up.

Edit: And it’s like if you don’t know something, you get hate for it.

I'm from the U.S. and I enjoyed watching the World Cup that I wanted to watch more of it. So I actually wrote down my favorite players and apparently that's a big no-no. I have to support my local team which is either NYCFC or Red Bulls. I pick NYCFC because Red Bulls are from NJ. Also I have to support Gotham FC. I feel like it's kinda jarring as an American because I'm lucky to live near NYC but what about the people from upstate NY? They have to travel 5 hours for a game in NYC.

Okay, my questions are:

1. Can I watch the Premier League or La Liga without supporting any teams? I just really want to enjoy watching football.

2. One of my parents is from a different country and their country isn't well known for football. Should I still support them? But also one person from my country is a historical figure in football that played in a team. Should I support that team even if I myself don't have historical ties to that community?

I'm literally having an identity crisis over this?

Here is my post about the first three seasons. I find season 4 and season 5 to be enjoyable. I recently watched the series finale and it's questionable? I really like Ginger finally having sex with Eric lol. I am pissed off that Bill didn't even drink Sarah's blood. Now he's like "lemme traumatize Sookie one more time" with having her use her faerie powers. Something that makes Sookie Sookie and having her strip away of it. And it's like Bill! Being a vampire is what makes you Bill! I enjoyed Eric's and Pam's ending. I don't like how Sookie and Jason are immediately put into relationships. I rather have them being single in the end and not having kids. Both of them needs to learn how to be alone lol. I didn't like how Sam's story ends with him leaving Bon Temps because "there's more outside of the town". I don't like that at all because Sam had been travelling ever since he gotten abandoned by his adopted parents. And Bon Temps is the place that accepted him for who he is. He has his found family and now he's abandoning them. It just doesn't make sense to me. Also who was the mayor during this time !?!?! lol. I didn't like Jessica killing Andy's kids lol. I didn't like how Alcide just died like that and he was great boyfriend (besides Eric) for Sookie. Then Sookie went back to Bill like the next day. RIP TERRY!

I’m 22 years old from NY and I like shopping in Primark. Everyone is wearing American Eagle, Aeropostale, Aerie, or Hollister. It’s so expensive for me and I sometimes need to shop in the clearance section. But I really like how cheap Primark is and I know fast fashion is bad. But I really like having basic clothings. I love having XXS in Primark because I’m short as shit. I love Primark!

Edit: I MEANT PENNEYS! THANK YOU PENNEYS!

idk after Spain won the World Cup, i feel much lighter and my life suddenly became better.

I grew up watching the World Cup with my family because it’s always in the background. I remember watching the Germany v. Brazil match in 2014. That‘s my earliest memory with the World Cup. But I actually got invested with watching it that I actually need to watch an actual game. I was never the person who watches sports but this World Cup changed that!

I heard of Oasis here in America and my family were Oasis fans. I was jealous of my uncle and cousins going to an Oasis concert last year ! I fully got invested into them last year and it changed my life. It made me very confident and believe in my dreams that seems unrealistic for a person in my social class. Sometimes when I lose my confidence, I would think “what would Liam Gallagher do?” Lol. Their songs made me confident about myself and I was able to make friends throughout college !
